Farmer Against Potatoes Idle: AutoHotKey Script Guide

If you don’t know AutoHotKey, it’s software that allows you to move your move, click and press keys automatically, analyse stuff that happens on your screen and loads more. Very nice.

Just download and install the latest version here:

This script will only work with the game as the active window, fully visible and with the cursor free to move.
It basically only works when left to do it’s thing.
You can pause and unpause it whenever you want, so for example, you let it play the minigame, pause it, do your own thing and after 5 minutes manually unpause it to play the minigame again and repeat.

If at any point anything goes wrong, F11 will pause the script.
If the symbol on the taskbar is red its paused

if its green its running.

You can fully shut off script by right clicking the symbol on the the taskbar and clicking exit.

Create a new Folder, right click and create a new file and call it “setup.ahk”.
Right-click and edit setup.ahk and copy this in:
