Ive put together my own script, sence most of the decent ones have been taken down. But after looking at some of the other scripts with pause, i just get more confused. Could you tell me how to do?

sorry if my english is bad.

what do you means with "pause"?
Hitting key which stops the execution or letting the script pause for a given period or something else ?

Pausing a script ingame. And being able to unpause ingame. While fishing, i can pause, buy bait, return, and unpause.

This is an example (partly from the helpfile) that toggles the Pause with the pause key.. the ESC key exits the script

edit: update the example a bit..

Plain Text        expandcollapse  popup

Global $Paused
HotKeySet("{PAUSE}", "TogglePause")
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")

While 1;infinite loop
   sleep(100)
   SplashTextOn("pauseSpecialScrn", "Running")
  ; stuff to do goes here ...
Wend

Func TogglePause()
    $Paused = NOT $Paused
    SplashTextOn("pauseSpecialScrn", "Pausing")
    while $Paused
      sleep(100)
    Wend
EndFunc

Func Terminate()
    MsgBox(4096,"", "The End")
    Exit
EndFunc

Thank you

I could not get the HotKeySet() function to work with FFXI

This is how my pause script works:

In game make the following macros:

CTRL+1 => Name it START
Alt+1 => Name it STOP

this is checks to see if you are holding ALT down:

If CheckPixel(31, 37, 56, 44, 66, 39, 0, 0, 0) = 1 Then
$Paused = 1
SoundPlay ("chord.wav",1)
Sleep(100)
SoundPlay ("chord.wav",1)
EndIf


If you are holding ALT down then the game says stop in the upper left corner. the checkpixel function is one that i made. you should use the PixelGetColor function.

So now that the the Pause is detected i have a loop that waits for you to press CTRL to start it again.



While $paused = 1
Sleep(6000)
If CheckPixel(31, 37, 56, 34, 61, 44, 73, 43, 0) = 1 Then
$Paused = 0
SoundPlay ("chord.wav",1)
Sleep(100)
SoundPlay ("chord.wav",1)
EndIf
WEnd


this unpauses the script when it detects "START" in the upper left corner
