pixelsearh and keypresses

im trying to get this script to repeat itself, im still learning autoit and correct me if i am wrong i believe the @error flag gets stuck once this is detected its a random blinking color i want to find that will appear and disappear. is the Until not @error where my problem lies? How would i get this to repeat itself. after each detection of the correct color

Do
                $coord = PixelSearch( 588, 422, 599, 434, 16645626, 10 )
            Until  Not @error
        send("{UP}",1)

You want to repeat something. You know how to use a loop. So what's the problem?

[darklonerlv]

when it locates it the first time, it stops sending the defined key like it the flag is stuck.

[AdmiralAlkex]

But you coded it to only check one time!

[darklonerlv]

fair enough ill post the entire code 6 times max is what im working with. first one works great then it stops

Do
                $coord = PixelSearch( 588, 422, 599, 434, 16645626, 10 )
            Until  Not @error
        send("{UP}")

    Do
                $coord = PixelSearch( 588, 422, 599, 434, 16645626, 10 )
            Until  Not @error
        send("{UP}",1)
         Do
                $coord = PixelSearch( 588, 422, 599, 434, 16645626, 10 )
            Until  Not @error
        send("{UP}",1)
        Do
                $coord = PixelSearch( 588, 422, 599, 434, 16645626, 10 )
            Until  Not @error
        send("{UP}",1)
         Do
                $coord = PixelSearch( 588, 422, 599, 434, 16645626, 10 )
            Until  Not @error
        send("{UP}",1)

Take a look at this:

;script starts
Do
    $coord = PixelSearch( 588, 422, 599, 434, 16645626, 10 )
Until  Not @error ;loop until color found
send("{UP}",1)
;scripts exits

Do you understand what I mean now?

So if you want it to repeat, stick it in a loop:

;script starts
While 1 ;makes for a good eternal loop
    Do
        Sleep(10)
        $coord = PixelSearch( 588, 422, 599, 434, 16645626, 10 )
    Until  Not @error ;loop until color found
    send("{UP}",1)
WEnd
;script never comes here

Edit: I hope you have a Sleep() in there, you don't want to suck up the whole CPU do you? (added sleep to example)
