APM monitoring
-
This tool is written entirely in python. I will attach the source code, as well as the script, to check for suspicious code sections. This APM tracker allows you to track your APM right during the game by dividing it into Mouse/Keyboard, and Total. And there are also internal parameters of the Micro/A macro APM that compares your APM with professional players at every moment of time every second, this is reflected in the colors in the legend on the AVG indicator, red is a bad APM, green is a good APM, purple is a perfect APM. Different timings are also loaded for different stages of the game (Early game, Mid-game, Late game, Ultralight game), where at each stage of the game the APM is compared with the pro level by different variables. There is also an IDLE line to track your inactivity, the color also matters, blue is perfect, green is good, red is bad. IDLE is also compared with the performance of pro players.
Among other things, an internal APM graph is built in, as well as the amount of clicks is displayed. It is recommended to reset the tool after each game (F3 - played the game - F3) so the script will not break and all stages of the game will be considered correctly.
Also, for visual lovers, there is a "wallpapers" folder in the root folder where you can add your own wallpapers for the tracker and change them by pressing the F4 key. By default, an anime girl picture is downloaded there.
The archive with the software is too big, I'll upload it to my Google drive: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/16TDPYbPbpfU8r8H6qHu1ACJ93QJnO58K?usp=sharing

Perhaps you can put the code on Github? Easier to review.

I'm essentially a novice coder, I've been doing this for less than a week, I've never used a github for hosting. I can attach the python script itself that runs the EXE so that you can look through editing
