I am trying to make a keyboard recorder for an app
-
I am trying to make a app that will record the exact duration, and the sequence of keystrokes. it need to be able to record with very precise timing because I am planing on using it to create a way to record a game follow path. For example a driving game that earns you money for just diving around in free roam and if you follow a specific path you maximize the amount of money you earn. but i don't know what i need for the coding. Is there a way to code something like that?

Recording keystrokes is frowned upon, and illegal without the users' consent. That being said, you could use a keyboard-hook. That does record keyboard-strokes, not characters. Not one of the easiest things to do, and not something I'm inclined to help with for cheating-purposes.

well it is going to be an app so they will give the consent and i will not see the key strokes

Most serious online games have counter measures to stop this sort of thing and it directly violates there User agreement and gets you banned. If you are dealing with real money it also comes under the fraud act of most countries and selling or distributing the app itself will fall under the same laws. I would think very carefully about what you are doing it will generally be illegal.

Who is 'they'? If it's the company that made the game, it would be trivial for them to do this from within the game itself. If not, it's difficult and illegal. Note that most EULAs specifically prohibit that kind of thing. At the very least, this is true for all multiplayer games, simply because it would create an unfair advantage over other players. P.S.: Just to be clear: any program that is capable of recording user input for other applications has the potential to record login credentials. For that reason alone it is most likely illegal in most countries, and that's on top of EULA and other rights that the game company may claim.
GOTOs are a bit like wire coat hangers: they tend to breed in the darkness, such that where there once were few, eventually there are many, and the program's architecture collapses beneath them. (Fran Poretto)

Yes. Not that difficult if you have experience programming. The app would need admin access and you would need to do a deep dive into OS API calls.
well OK it is illegal i wont try it., i mean i only wanted it so i can make an app that will allow you to make a type of AI afk non competitive grinder bot follow path so people can do long distince routs without having to be the PC for long time. i guess i should just start on a auto clicker and do even more research
