So fairly new to Autoit and trying to teach myself how to use it. Not much of a programmer so can yell at me call me names. Basically i created this spin to just loop through ever 15 secs and depending what X is equal to want it to run a macro i created thats set to certain key strokes.

$X = 0
While $X < 25
    IF $X = 3 or $X = 6 OR $X = 9 OR $X = 12 OR $X = 15 OR $X = 18 OR $X = 21 OR $X = 24 Then
        Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
    EndIf

    If $X = 6 OR $X = 12 OR $X = 18 OR $X = 24 Then
       Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}{ALTUP}")
    EndIf

    IF $X = 8 OR $X = 16 OR $X = 24 Then
        Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
    EndIf

    IF $X = 12 OR $X = 24 Then
        Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
        SLEEP (1000)
        Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
    EndIf

    If $X = 24 Then
        $X = 0
    ELSE
        $X = $X + 1
    EndIf
    Sleep (15000)
WEnd

Im not able to get this working right, and im guessing its because of the $X=$X+1 at the end that im doing, guessing cant pass a numeric into a string but i could be WAY off. Either way if someone can tell whats wrong so i can get this to increment $X ever 15 seconds.

Check your if statements! It seems to be not correct!

Plus, $X = $X + 1 can be turned in to $X += 1

I added ConsoleWrite() which works in SciTE to see what is happening to $X and which statement is being Executed. I can't see a problem to be honest, so maybe look at the Send() Functions.

$X = 0
While $X < 25
    If $X = 3 Or $X = 6 Or $X = 9 Or $X = 12 Or $X = 15 Or $X = 18 Or $X = 21 Or $X = 24 Then
;~      Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
        ConsoleWrite("If Statement 1 & $X = " & $X & @CRLF)
    EndIf

    If $X = 6 Or $X = 12 Or $X = 18 Or $X = 24 Then
;~      Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}{ALTUP}")
        ConsoleWrite("If Statement 2 & $X = " & $X & @CRLF)
    EndIf

    If $X = 8 Or $X = 16 Or $X = 24 Then
;~      Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
        ConsoleWrite("If Statement 3 & $X = " & $X & @CRLF)
    EndIf

    If $X = 12 Or $X = 24 Then
;~      Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
;~      Sleep(1000)
;~      Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
        ConsoleWrite("If Statement 4 & $X = " & $X & @CRLF)
    EndIf

    If $X = 24 Then
        $X = 0
    Else
        $X += 1
    EndIf
    ConsoleWrite("$X is " & $X & @CRLF)
    Sleep(1000)
WEnd

Ok ill redo that part, i used the autoit script writer to do that part so how do i properly use the Send feature? Basically tring to send Shift + Alt + ctrl + 1 with numlock on which i think reads as end but i can change that to be something else. but how do i properly add the keys i want it to activate?

! = Alt / + = Shift / ^ = Ctrl & # = Windows Key >> Look at Send in the Help File and you will see the Remarks Section.

So Shift+Alt+Ctrl+1 is Send("^!+1") or Ctrl+Alt+Shift+1 (doesn't matter about the order)

Just noticed the 'IF ORgy' can be reduced to

$X = 0
While $X < 25
    If Mod($X , 3) = 0 Then
;~      Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
        ConsoleWrite("If Statement 1 & $X = " & $X & @CRLF)
    EndIf

    If Mod($X , 6) = 0 Then
;~      Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}{ALTUP}")
        ConsoleWrite("If Statement 2 & $X = " & $X & @CRLF)
    EndIf

    If Mod($X , 8) = 0 Then
;~      Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
        ConsoleWrite("If Statement 3 & $X = " & $X & @CRLF)
    EndIf

    If Mod($X , 12) = 0 Then
;~      Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
;~      Sleep(1000)
;~      Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
        ConsoleWrite("If Statement 4 & $X = " & $X & @CRLF)
    EndIf

    If $X = 24 Then
        $X = 0
    Else
        $X += 1
    EndIf
    ConsoleWrite("$X is " & $X & @CRLF)
    Sleep(1000)
WEnd

Thanks that worked, just had to change up the keys to something else and working great. Thanks for the knowledge on !^+ very useful, also look at the remarks section.

Here's another improvement:

:)

Global $X = 3

While $X < 25
    Sleep(15000)
    
    If Mod($X , 3) = 0 Then
        Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
    EndIf

    If Mod($X , 6) = 0 Then
        Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}{ALTUP}")
    EndIf

    If Mod($X , 8) = 0 Then
        Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
    EndIf

    If Mod($X , 12) = 0 Then
        Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
        Sleep(1000)
        Send("{SHIFTDOWN}{CTRLDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{ALTUP}{SHIFTUP}{CTRLUP}")
    EndIf

    If $X = 24 Then
        $X = 3
    Else
        $X = $X + 1
    EndIf
WEnd

could you explain what is you did i dont understand how this is working. what does the global and mod functions that you are doing.

I tested you. The only thing that matters is that $X begins with 3. :)

Because when $X = 1 or $X = 2 then nothing happens.

When you devide a number by another number you sometimes get a remainder. Modulo is a function that returns only the remainder.

Let's assume that $X = 24 then Mod($X, 12) = 0 because when you devide 24 / 12 then the remainder is 0. Also, Mod(24, 10) = 4 becuase 24/10 = 2 r4
