Pixelsearch not working half the time

[cpil]

The program I'm running is meant to scroll over an object (ego.bmp) where a box will pop up to the lower right of it, and I'm using pixelsearch to determine if there is red. It works perfectly about half the time, but the other half -- it seems to be returning @error when the pixel is there. I can simply exit the compiled exe and start it again and again until the loop works correctly. But I'm sure there's a way to avoid that!

Here is the function I'm using. The function is looped until $hungry=1:

Func IsHungry()
    _ImageSearch("Ego.bmp",1,$x,$y,60)
    MouseMove($x,$y,1)
    Sleep(1000)
    $h = PixelSearch($x+100,$y+160,$x+200,$y+260,0xFF0000)
    If Not @error Then
        $hungry = 1
    Else
        $hungry = 0
        MouseMove($x,$y+100,1)
        Sleep(60000)
    EndIf
EndFunc

Any help or ideas would be much appreciated!

no thanks. It looks like you're working on a game bot.
