Simple coding questions

[Bman737]

Hello, this is my first day using autoit, but i have read threw some documentation( 1-2-3, autoit help, forum posts)

Here is my dilemma, I have never coded or scripted, so please forgive my newbieness. What I am trying to accomplish is this. I am trying to create a script/exe that when it starts, it activates a specific window, then, starts the loop to press one, wait one second, press 1 again wait one second, press 2, wait one second, so on till 3, after three i would like it to wait 100 seconds, and restart the process. I would also like it to be terminated with escape.

This is what i have come up with

WinActivate ( "RF Online" )

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")

While 1 ;starts loop

send("{1}")

sleep(1000)

send("{1}")

sleep(1000)

send("{2}")

sleep(1000)

send("{2}")

sleep(1000)

send("{3}")

sleep(1000)

send("{3}")

sleep(1000000)

WEnd

And do you have a question ?

You probably want to send your keys like this

send("1")

Your script looks good. You forgot to add the "Terminate" function.

Ok, After another hour or so of testing, i came with this. My question is, i tried to add SendKeyDownDelay, but im not too sure on the syntax of it, could anyone help clarify please?

Thanks in advanced.

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")

WinActivate ( "RF Online" )

SendKeepActive("RF Online")

If WinActive("RF Online") Then

While 1 ;starts loop

Send("{F1}")

Sleep(1000)

send("{F1}")

Sleep(1000)

send("{F2}")

Sleep(1000)

send("{F2}")

Sleep(1000)

Send("{F3}")

Sleep(1000)

Send("{F3}")

Sleep(1000)

Send("{F4}")

Sleep(1000)

Send("{F4}")

Sleep(1000)

send("{F5}")

Sleep(1000)

send("{F5}")

Sleep(10000)

ContinueLoop

WEnd

EndIf

Func Terminate()

Exit 0

EndFunc

Opt("SendKeyDownDelay", 10); = ten millisecond delay before the key is released.
