Requirements
Autohotkey is a very useful freeware automation tool. Available here: http://www.autohotkey.com/
The Script
Once Autohotkey is installed, open Notepad. Simply copy the code below and save it to a text file with an .ahk extension.

Double-clicking the file will automatically open and run the script in Autohotkey - an icon will appear in the system tray to show that the script is running. Right-clicking on the icon will allow you to Exit the script when you're done.

In-Game Usage
Once in the game with the script running, the following keyboard commands can be used to draw the shapes:

Key
Shape
W
”/\”
A
”/”
S
”\/”
D
”\”
E
”|”
C
”-”

The “Z” key will toggle spam idle mode where it will cycle through all shapes and solve each level.

All key bindings can be re-configured within that portion of the script.
Troubleshooting
If the game is not registering the shapes, the “m” variables at the beginning of the script can be adjusted:
m_speed=2 ;speed of mouse movements m_length=10 ;length of mouse movements m_pause=100 ;wait time (milliseconds) between mouse movements

If the achievements stop working after finishing a level:
  1. Close the game
  2. Delete the save game folder: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\dc2\
  3. Open the game and select “Start Over” from the main menu
