I'm still new to Python, and I've been using ChatGBT as my tutor, I'm trying to automate a mini game, it needs to read the single character (letter or number) on my screen, and then when the timing is right, press that button. I've been at 3 different versions trying to find a solution to this, I simply can't get it to recognize the character. I really hope someone can help me move forward!
