Well this is the problem; In my program the mouseclicks or preferly the first one, is some how cut short or isnt on target to the coordinates I provided in the command... But here it comes the wierd part; i made a new file and copied the exact mouseclick command that wasnt hitting the right spot and when i tried it then it worked perfectly!?!?!? Is there some command I stated to make it do this or something? HELP!

You might explicitly set/experiment with your MouseCoordMode option, and PixelCoordMode, if that's how you determined what the value should be.

Also, that Select/Case is just silly. How about just this instead:

Sleep(10000 + ($T * 100))

lol well its a little to late for that but i will add it in.. but you are saying to loose the mouseclick options?

I can't explain why running the same file from different locations would cause different behavior, but I couldn't resist suggesting some changes to your script.

While 1 ;unless this is part of a bigger script this will cause the same infinite loop (!) as your original constructions.
    If ProcessExists("PWO.exe") <> 0 Then ;runs if the process does not exist. Checed for return code as it does not set @error
        ;perhaps add a winactivate, winwaitactive, etc here.
        MouseClick("left",30,608,2,1)
        Sleep(15000)
        MouseClick("left",427,562,1,3)
        SLeep(30000)
        MouseClick("left",451,404,3,2)
        Sleep(100)
        MouseClick("left",155,679,1,2)
    EndIf
    Sleep(5000)
    ;perhaps add a winactivate, winwaitactive, etc here.
    MouseClick("left",171,445,1,1)
    For $l = 1 To 6 ;replaced Do...Until with this construction
        ;perhaps add a winactivate, winwaitactive, etc here.
        MouseClick("left",171,445,1,1)
        MouseClick("left",171,445,1,1)
        MouseClick("left",171,445,1,1)
        PixelSearch(460,175,460,175,0x132F34)
        If Not @error Then
            Sleep(3000)
            MouseClick("left",212,559,1,3)
            Sleep(500)
            MouseClick("left",166,495,2,2)
            Sleep(13000)
        EndIf
    Sleep(Random(100,130,1)*100) ;this replaced the enire swich statement
    Next
WEnd

Hope it helps

thanks for the script i tried it but with my luck i had the same problem the mouse clicked about 2" from where it should of... Ive even double checked and triple checked the cords. at which i set them it should of worked

[ArmandoXS]

FIXED!!!

I found out what was the problem its a wierd fix and i dont understand fully why it didnt work but here is how i fixed it..

the orginal code..

While $i=0
$T=Random(0,30,1)
ProcessExists("PWO.exe")
    If @error Then
        MouseClick("left",30,608,2,1) 
        Sleep(15000)
        MouseClick("left",427,562,1,3) 
        SLeep(30000)
        MouseClick("left",451,404,3,2) 
        Sleep(100)
        MouseClick("left",155,679,1,2)

Needs to be changed to

$Processchk=ProcessExists("PWO.exe")
    If $Processchk=0 Then
        MouseClick("left",30,608,2,1) 
        Sleep(15000)
        MouseClick("left",427,562,1,3) 
        SLeep(30000)
        MouseClick("left",451,404,3,2) 
        Sleep(100)
        MouseClick("left",155,679,1,2)

Making ProcessExists a varible and then checking if there was an error by checking if a 0 was returned

Edited May 11, 2010 by DarkDragon

[Tvern]

That's actually what this line did in the adjusted script:

If ProcessExists("PWO.exe") <> 0 Then

or even shorter:

If ProcessExists("PWO.exe") Then

If you look at the helpfile for ProcessExists you'll see that it doesn't set @error, so checking it will never work.

There are other funtions that don't set @error, so it's always best to check the return values in the helpfile if you're unsure.
