Yeah I get it. When I made this I had zero knowledge about either if I'm being honest and it was made within a day. I realized a day or two before posting it that you can definitely do it all within AutoHotKey, but I decided to leave it as is because of: 

1. User-friendliness once everything is set up (i don't think people want to re-write code that they may not be familiar with every time they want to change a key press), 

2. Shortcuts being keyboard dependent (I know there's the AHKHID library, but I haven't been able to look into it in depth and I feel like that would add a lot more complexity to the end user to change/setup something), 

3. Laziness  :]  (main limiting factor if I'm being honest and why I didn't use Lua Macros instead)

4. (as a bonus) integration with other apps like streamer.bot (but that doesn't need the HIDMacros part tho)

I already made something like this days ago (but it uses HIDMacro in conjunction with AutoHotKey tho), I had posted it in a different thread. https://itch.io/t/3176759/costume-hotkeys-not-working-unless-window-is-active it already has some instructions and I plan to make a new community thread once I finish a video tutorial for it

I made something that can help you with that in HIDMacros and AutoHotKey (It's works fine, but It's kinda half-baked tho).  I'm currently making a video tutorial for it. Once I'm done making the vid, I'll probably make a new community post for ease of access. But in the meantime, here's the google doc folder that has the instructions and the files I made: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ior8OpDd7Y8q55yAbyJuPc-F5dwEtbCU?usp=sha... the instructions are in the PDF in folder.  If you or anyone else has any questions, just reply below.
