Toggle a key with hotkey in autohotkey

So I tried to automate running in a game, where the map is huge, and I have to run miles. I wanted to toggle on the hotkey (Ctrl+Shift+A or something else) press the running (in the game, I can run with w). I tried code, like:

Pause On
Loop
Send w
+^a::Pause

(it can press the w, but it can't release) and like this:

+^a::
toggle := !toggle

while toggle
    Send {w down}

(same problem). It's just my problem, or these codes are wrong?

Solution

  • This is my stock function. I usualy map it to ^W or Q. Pressing w or s will cancel it. Easy peasy.

    HoldW(){
    SendInput {w up}{w down}
    Loop
    {
        Sleep 100
        GetKeyState state, w
        if state = u
            return
        If GetKeyState("s")
        {
            SendInput {w up}
            return
        }
    }
}
