Okay so thanks to Wyn10, I know how to properly make a runescape loader. I've set up a thread when the loader starts that takes buffered image screenshots of the loader screen and saves them to a file (this is because I was experimenting with the screen capture method in the Robot class). Well I know that using the robot class for your key and mouse events takes control of your mouse and that you have to create a new KeyEvent using its constructor and using
1.)
source - the Component that originated the event
id - an integer identifying the type of event
when - a long integer that specifies the time the event occurred
modifiers - the modifier keys down during event (shift, ctrl, alt, meta) Either extended _DOWN_MASK or old _MASK modifiers should be used, but both models should not be mixed in one event. Use of the extended modifiers is preferred.
keyCode - the integer code for an actual key, or VK_UNDEFINED (for a key-typed event)
keyChar - the Unicode character generated by this event, or CHAR_UNDEFINED (for key-pressed and key-released events which do not map to a valid Unicode character)
Anyways, I know how to get the source (which is the applet that the game is displayed on, the id is an int such as keyPressed/keyReleased, not sure about the when, modifiers is obvious, the keyCode is something such as VK_H/VK_SPACE, and I'm not sure about the keyChar. If anyone could explain how to find the "when" integer, and the source I would appreciate it.
