🔒 Arrow Program help

[hardy yew]

I am still very new to coding and got a lot of help from AI so I don't really know what I am doing. My program is suppose to allow me to select an area off my screen and detect for arrow patterns then press the arrow keys in the same pattern sequence as the arrow sequence in the recorded screen area. It records the screen fine but it seems to be pressing the arrow keys in the wrong order and then when no patterns appear on the screen it still seems to be pressing some arrow keys for unknown reasons. I have added the images of the arrow keys in a random sequence for reference and the arrow key images I use for the programs references. I would love some advice on this.

Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

One thing that might be causing an issue is the threshold value. Since the arrow images are very similar they might be being identified improperly, so for a first test I'd try increasing the threshold a bit

[hardy yew]

Do you know how I would do that sorry?

[stark flint]

By setting it to a different value on the functions you used threshold=0.8

[hardy yew]

Ah okay so would you recommend maybe like 5.0? or lower?

[stark flint]

No, the max is 1.0

Maybe 0.9? Idk

[hardy yew]

Sure thank you!

just as a heads up, you shouldnt be relying on AI for anything code-related, especially writing the code unless its incredibly simple and you already know what you’re doing.

using AI to correct your code instead of either:
a) fixing it yourself
b) getting another person to help you fix it
is just going to prolong your learning journey. dont do it

main reason I used AI is due to the fact I know 0 coding haha sorry so I think I might look into hiring someone to try make this program for me

[strong scaffold]

AI will fuck up your project in unexpected and unpredictable ways. AI is trained on mostly garbage code samples so it’s gonna end up being wrong

[hardy yew]

ah okay
