Sub execution on ANY key and/or mouse action

[randy17]

Hi all,

hope there is a answer to my problem >_<

I'm writing a bot for a game (in fact the bot is finished)

The bot controls mouse and keyboard, works flawless. BUT:

From time to time i want to interact with the game myself.

Atm i stop the bot, do what i need and restart it afterwards.

A much more elegant version would be, if i had something

like the old basic "anykey". Something like

hotkeyset ("anykey", _sleep2seconds()) ;go to sleep for 2 secs if any key is pressed

Of course i have to make sure it doesn't get nested. np

If there would be something like "anymouse" it would be like heaven

Any ideas?

There is a Pause button on the system tray.

There is a Pause button on the system tray.

Not elegant >_<

Game window loses focus and i have to use the mouse (and aim exactly). Worse than it is now

Atm: esc (closes script) - do what i want - doubleclick on script (gives focus back to game automaticly)

I could think of writing a gui for my script just to have a pause button

but imho thats overkill (and not much better than close/open)

Some kind of "on anykey" would simply be the most charming

Try to play with this.

#Include <WinAPIEx.au3>

Global $Time, $pTime = _WinAPI_GetIdleTime()

While 1
    Sleep(10)
    $Time = _WinAPI_GetIdleTime()
        ConsoleWrite('Active' & @CR)
    EndIf
    $pTime = $Time
WEnd

WinAPIEx.au3

Thx, but i suppose this wont work as my bot moves mouse and pushes keys like wild ^^

[randy17]

Not sure if pushing is allowed. I'll just do it >_

helpfile: _WinAPI_SetWindowsHookEx

All you need to do is look at the example in the HotKeySet() function in the helpfile. It has a Pause ability. The only other thing to worry about is if you want the script to continue where it left off, or to restart at the beginning.
