    I wouldn't risk it, personally.
    I had a friend using a macro to wiggle tho and he had no trouble.

    It's pretty much up to you, at your own risks.

    You dont have to spam the key as fast as you can. Just steady presses is all you need.

    How if you get an possitive answer then you use some script that just work not only as a autostruggle?
    So you will gain no reply about this.

    Heard most people just re-bind the wiggle/struggle to the mouse wheel and scroll up or down.

    There's no way to really cheat the system with scripts from what i've seen. Everything has a set max speed(ie: wiggling) you can perform them at. Unless youve found a way to cause the script to abuse a bug, you should be fine. I might email a dev or ask a mod first just in case though. Better safe than sorry.

    You are using 3rd party programms to gain an advantage. Yes you can be banned for that. The only question whether EAC detects that and I have no experience about that

    There is probably no way for the game to know you are using such a simple script.

    I have a friend, who has a cousin, who knows someone, who has a half brother that uses a macro for auto wiggle and auto struggle. Not sure I have all the information....buuuuuut it's recursive macro that he runs through Razer Synapse. If I understood them correctly, the computer can't even tell if the button is actually being pushed or if it's being told to "register" a push. The interval is set to 0.030. So he hits one button to start it, and it's auto wiggle. Press it again, and it turns it off.

    I love this game and wouldn't do anything to risk my progress, but as for a hypothetical conversation...I don't think there is anyway for the game to detect the origin of the input using this method. It's NOT a script though....it's an input macro.

    It's fine, you won't get banned.

    I use it. Been using it for a solid year. It doesn't really give you an advantage, just makes it hassle free and doesn't force me to kill the spacebar at 2 AM.

    Damn those filthy macro users trying to circumvent carpal tunnel.

    Personally I don't really see the issue in tapping space once every half second.

    This carpal tunnel argument is nonsense lol I've been playing button spammey games since I was 3 years old starting with Mario Party. My hands and wrists are still perfectly fine.

    Some people are genetically inclined to get it. I don't have it personally, but I have had a few, young friends that do have it from playing video games.

    Interesting. I'm probably more inclined to get arthritis than carpal tunnel.

    Sorry to update this post so late but you can as long as you don't spam too much.

    And you can bind Wheelup instead of space bar I think?
    EDIT: Fixed link

    For wiggling, you just need a steady rhythm. You need to press the A and D keys almost like you're playing the piano. Use a 1 2 pattern and you will conserve keyboard charges. As for struggling: Just go to the controls part of the options and change the struggle key to something like the mouse wheel.
