Using hotkey in specific application, what is wrong with my code?

This works:

wheeldown::
WinGetTitle, Title, A
WinGetClass, Class, A
if (RegExMatch(Title, "Poker"))
    {coordmode, mouse, window
    MouseGetPos, StartX, StartY
    mouseclick, left, 325, 341
    MouseMove, StartX, StartY
    }
else
    send {wheeldown}
return

This doesn't work

a:: WinGetTitle, Title, A
WinGetClass, Class, A
if (RegExMatch(Title, "Poker"))
    {coordmode, mouse, window
    MouseGetPos, StartX, StartY
    mouseclick, left, 510, 342
    send {Backspace}
    send {Backspace}
    send {Backspace}
    send {Backspace}
    send {Backspace}
    send, 1.25
    MouseMove, StartX, StartY
    }
else
    send {a}
return

Why it not work :(

Error message comes when I try to use "a" in a different application. Says 71 hotkeys used in 1000ms or something.

three things, strictly speaking when using a hot key that has multiple lines of code the first line doesn't immediately follow the double colons. So this:

a:: WinGetTitle, Title, A
WinGetClass, Class, A

should be this:

a::
WinGetTitle, Title, A
WinGetClass, Class, A

Secondly the command that you are trying to find is called an imperative by the name of "#IfWinActive" or "#If" your regex should be used with latter of those to commands. There is a lot to that so you will need to look at those in the docs.

Lastly in the using a hotkey which sends itself you need to prefix it with "$" so that this:

a::

becomes:

$a::

Hope that helps with the question for any one looking atthis year old post.

Add this to the top of your script:

#MaxHotkeysPerInterval 300      ;default is 70

The error you get is common to scripts where the mousewheel is captured and used alot. Autohotkey treats the mousewheel as a hotkey and thinks that you shouldn't push a hotkey more than 70 times per second. Scrolling can call the hotkey more times then that depending on usage. This line will allow more than 70.
