This makes no sense to 99% of app users. Why does it have to be in the app? Why can't the 1% just use AutoHotKey or software from Razer, Logitech, and other mouse manufacturers? |

There are various reasons as to why this has to be in the app:
Right now, there are only 3 Settings sub-menus, so one more really wouldn't hurt. This is no doubt my most requested feature, as it's extremely good when you're playing in local sessions. Please do not say it's not useful to 99% of users, as you don't know how many users play locally instead of by streaming the games (I'm one of those btw). |

It looks like AHK thinks that the linked script requires a deprecated version of AHK. Does it need to be edited to specify the current version (or that it is not version-specific)? |

This, alongside a few more things, is now part of the Jackbox Utility Extras. |

Usually, when I'm playing with my friends locally, I have a laptop set up to a TV and I control everything using a mouse. However, this way you can't really pause the games.

That's why I made this script (with AutoHotKey) in which you can control everything you need from Jackbox using only your mouse.
The controls are on the image there, but the basic is Right Click to Pause and Middle Click to close the game.
I suppose the implementation into the Utility wouldn't be difficult. It'd be just opening and closing the script as long as the Utility is open and not letting the script interact with the Utility (so you don't accidentally close the Utility with the middle click.)
