[razo]

hello making a script to launch a game at a certain time, my previous version worked however i noticed that sometimes my computer would fail to launch it the first time so i needed to add a way of checking if its working and now I've got errors that i just cant solve.. any help would be appreciated

the errors:

>C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3\SciTE\..\au3check.exe "C:\Users\user\Desktop\script.au3"

The code:

$hour = 7

$min = 00

$start = $hour & ":" & $min ; for testing

$program = "c:\users\user\desktop\launch.bat"

$loop = 1

While $loop = 1

$start2 = @HOUR & ":" & @MIN

If ProcessExists ExeFile.exe

msgbox (1, "checker", "Eve Already Running")

ElseIf $start = $start2

Run($program)

ProcessWait ("exefile.exe",5)

if ProcessExists ("ExeFile.exe")

$loop = 2

endif

EndIf

EndIf

sleep(2000)

Exit

WEnd

You were so close there, I almost wish you had gotten away with it.

Tell you what, I'll give you a clue. start from the top down as a lot of the lower errors are cause by the top erors.

Look at you missing ()s and bang a couple of thens in there.

Just a little trick here....

If you double click on a line like this

"C:\Users\user\Desktop\script.au3(17,1) : ERROR: missing Wend."

the line the error is on will be highlighted

Hard to say, there's so many good ones. Maybe Benjamin Sisko, the whole "captain of Terok Nor" -thing he does is kinda cool

Fry (<-- link) is good too.

This thread just barely escaped the "Game Automation" police - lucky OP

I don't see any point in having a MMO (EVE Online) starting at a certain time without a "follow-up" (login, botting ...)

[razo]

unfortunately the script seems to close itself now shortly after starting.. tried some revisions still same results.. no errors just a loop that doesn't loop

this code is not as tidy as the last but, im a bit lost as to why the loop stops without launching the program.

_---- nvrmind, simple mistake lol.. i think i need my eyes examined.. had the exit before the wend..

Not a very smart idea to continue on this thread

It will get flagged pretty soon. You should have taken my previous post as a warning.
