Help with looping script

[Qutazs]

Hello everyone,

this is my first time here on the boards, and the very first time using AutoIT (I was using AutoHotKey before).

I can say, that right now I really like AutoIT and the possibilities, but I have ran into a problem.

$var = 1

While $var = 1
    Sleep (5000)
$PID = ProcessExists("WoW.exe")
If $PID Then ControlSend("World of Warcraft", "", "GxWindowClassD3d", "2",1)
WEnd

This SHOULD send the key "2" into the World of Warcraft window, even if it ain't the highlighted window (means; not being the active window).

Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? It worked perfectly when I wrote it like this:

$var = 1

While $var = 1
    Sleep (5000)
$PID = ProcessExists("WoW.exe")
If $PID Then Send("2")
WEnd

But then it HAS to be active - And that's hard when I want it to run in the background while in school.

Ty in advance :-)

Maybe WOW use something for protection like GameGuad or something similar, in this case ControlSend will not work.

WoW doesn't have gameguard. Do your research.

@Qutasz, you can do a control send without specifying a control, this works on WoW for sure. But perhaps it still has to be active. I've never tried running it in the background, because I usually wanted to see what the bot was doing for validation of it running properly.

Anyway, this is the code:

ControlSend("WindowTitle", "", "", "Send text")

I will try, and get back to you :-)

Great! Good to know. : )

Ok just to clarify something.

This was just the first part for my "all-in-one" pack for honor farming in WoW.

It will have the possibility of auto-login, auto-queue, auto-join and anti-afk.

It will come in an install file, which will install the program itself + the associated wow addon (the one that queues you).

Just need to wait a bit more for a beta release :-)

What are you clarifying here? It looks like all new information to me, none of it of any relevance.

[jvanegmond]

That's great. I usually post this stuff on my Twitter page or on my blog. 8)
