Is this macro possible/legal to use?

I want to make a macro that essentially cycles through like 5-7 keys with each press of a single mouse button.

So each time I press the mouse button it hits a different button in the series. " (mouse button press) F1 (mouse button press again) F2 (mouse button press again) F3" etc...

According to the rules, it appears to be legal:

"It is allowed to bind multiple actions to a key, however, delays, repeats, and conditions are strictly forbidden as well as any other means that allow unattended game-play"

But is this possible? I'm guessing it is with AHK?

Appears to be a delay in that all buttons are not pressed at the same time. If I'm understanding you correctly.

I always assumed 'delays' were intentionally programmed delays in the macro. Not physical delays.

Yes this is fine. You have no delays or loops and each action is started by a physical key press.

You would need to use an external program to accomplish it. AHK is probably the best known one.

If you want some assistance in understanding how to write it, feel free to send me a PM.
