Bejeweled blitz bot help

KingGeorge · March 9, 2010

Hi all

I have made a start on creating my own bejeweled blitz bot, currently available to play on facebook.

I have come to a grinding halt because my method of finding the gem colours in order to slde them in the right direction appears to be too cpu hungry and takes too long.

Currently the code i have wrote starts at the bottom right gem and moves up the grid from right to left then from left to right, at the moment it is only looking for a three in a row match along a horizontal line. (two blue gems then one red gem then a blue one)

Here is an image of the game to help you understand.

Here is my code to look at.

HotKeySet("^!t", "FindTable")
HotKeySet("^!m", "MoveToColour")

While 1
    Sleep(10)
wend


Func FindTable()
    $sc = PixelSearch(0, 0, @DesktopWidth, @DesktopHeight, 1249842)
    If @error Then
        sleep(100)
    Else
        $oox = $sc[0]
        $ooy = $sc[1]
        $ox = $oox + 11
        $oy = $ooy + 51

        Global $TopLeftX = $ox
        Global $TopLeftY = $oy
        Global $BottomRightX = $ox+280
        Global $BottomRightY = $oy+280

        MouseMove($TopLeftX,$TopLeftY,10)
        MouseMove($BottomRightX,$BottomRightY,10)
    EndIf

EndFunc   ;==>FindTable

Func MoveToColour()

    ;look for match on same line (two on left one on right)
    For $UpLook = 0 to 280 Step 40
        ;MsgBox(0,"Uplook",$UpLook)
        For $LeftLook = 40 to 200 Step 40
            ;MsgBox(0,"Leftlook",$LeftLook)
            $y = $LeftLook + 80
            $ActiveColour = PixelGetColor($BottomRightX-$LeftLook+40,$BottomRightY-$UpLook)
            ;MouseMove($BottomRightX-$LeftLook+40,$BottomRightY-$UpLook,10)
            ;MouseMove($BottomRightX-$LeftLook,$BottomRightY-$UpLook,10)
            ;MouseMove($BottomRightX-$y,$BottomRightY-$UpLook,10)
            If PixelGetColor($BottomRightX-$LeftLook,$BottomRightY-$UpLook) = $ActiveColour Then
                If PixelGetColor($BottomRightX-$y,$BottomRightY-$UpLook) = $ActiveColour Then
                    ;MsgBox(0,"Right to left match","Match")
                    MouseClick("Primary",$BottomRightX-$y,$BottomRightY-$UpLook,1)
                    Sleep(10)
                    MouseClick("Primary",$BottomRightX-$y+40,$BottomRightY-$UpLook,1)
                    Sleep(10)
                EndIf
            EndIf
        Next
    Next

    ;look for match on same line (two on right one on left)
    For $UpLook = 0 to 280 Step 40
        ;MsgBox(0,"Uplook",$UpLook)
        For $LeftLook = 240 to 80 Step -40
            ;MsgBox(0,"Leftlook",$LeftLook)
            $y = $LeftLook - 80
            $ActiveColour = PixelGetColor($BottomRightX-$LeftLook-40,$BottomRightY-$UpLook)
            ;MouseMove($BottomRightX-$LeftLook-40,$BottomRightY-$UpLook,10)
            ;MouseMove($BottomRightX-$LeftLook,$BottomRightY-$UpLook,10)
            ;MouseMove($BottomRightX-$y,$BottomRightY-$UpLook,10)
            If PixelGetColor($BottomRightX-$LeftLook,$BottomRightY-$UpLook) = $ActiveColour Then
                If PixelGetColor($BottomRightX-$y,$BottomRightY-$UpLook) = $ActiveColour Then
                    ;MsgBox(0,"Left to right match","Match")
                    MouseClick("Primary",$BottomRightX-$y,$BottomRightY-$UpLook,1)
                    Sleep(10)
                    MouseClick("Primary",$BottomRightX-$y-40,$BottomRightY-$UpLook,1)
                    Sleep(10)
                EndIf
            EndIf
        Next
    Next

EndFunc

You would need to have the image i have provided open in paint or the game itself open on facebook then use Ctrl+Alt+t to set the grid then Ctrl+Alt+m to run the code.

I think i am in need of an entirely new approach too be honest, any suggestions welcome

P.S. Before i go i found this video on utube of someone using autoit to run a bot in the same game but i cant get it to run as fast as he has, take a peek, the autoit code for this video is available through a link on utube. If i could get this working fast i would be happy.

Many thanks for looking

According to an announcement as old as the Forum itself...

If a game's EULA or TOS explicitly mention bots are not allowed, discussing ways to automate that game is not allowed here. Likewise, if a game features an online multiplayer component and you are attempting to automate it, discussion of such bots is not allowed here. If you create a thread to automate a game you need to make sure the game doesn't explicitly forbid it and that it does not feature multiplayer. Any game bot related thread may be closed for any reason. Repeatedly creating threads if your previous thread was closed will result in your removal from the site. Particularly egregious threads that clearly flaunt this announcement will be met with your removal from this site.

Play it safe, don't discuss game bots here.

everseeker · March 9, 2010

That being said... I think I'll have a look... from a purely... how to sort color grids... point of view :mellow:

JRowe · March 9, 2010

It's not multiplayer and automation isn't prohibited. This is pretty safe ground.

The bot logic has already been handled by the bot in the youtube video. The only thing needed is a conversion from desktop to online. Use the source for that bot as a reference. From a quick glance, it shouldn't be too difficult.

KingGeorge · March 9, 2010

Thanks for looking guys, i would not like to break any rules and i will not ignore anything that is said.

That being said i would like to get this working, i think that my approach is somewhat backwards.

I think what JRowe said makes sense as alot of the work has already been done in the code form the utube video, i just can't quite get to grasps with the logic and why it is working quite slow instead of at the speed at the end of the video.

Anyway thanks JRowe and everseeker for looking and i look forward to your suggestions/help.

Thanks for looking

Could do me a favor (or someone...)

I kinda have some time on my hands, but there is no way to tunnel thru our company firewall to get YouTube up.... (Well, I could, but the Security types would get all pissy and whine a lot)

Can someone clip out the code and post it here? Thanks

--------------------------

PS, remember to do your "hunting" from the bottom up, and restart after every "success"

That allows the best chance for cascade scores Posted Image

Could do me a favor (or someone...)
I kinda have some time on my hands, but there is no way to tunnel thru our company firewall to get YouTube up.... (Well, I could, but the Security types would get all pissy and whine a lot)
Can someone clip out the code and post it here? Thanks
--------------------------
PS, remember to do your "hunting" from the bottom up, and restart after every "success"
That allows the best chance for cascade scores

Have you tried the program called FREEPROXY? you can tunnel through that...
