DeusExMachina Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Hey there, I'm wondering if it is possible to kinda create a loop with a function calling another function? This is the code I currently have: Call ("test1") Func test1() Sleep(500) Call("test2") EndFunc Func test2() $Gostart = PixelSearch(1322, 157, 1344, 172, 0xf3c513) If @Error Then Sleep(500) Call("test1") Else ;bunch of other unrelated codes EndIf EndFunc What this code is supposed to do is calling the other functions until the specified color shows up at that coordinate.But for some reason, sometimes it does that code but sometimes it doesn't and just stand idle. Anyone knows the solution to fix it?
BrewManNH Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 That code should work as written, it's going to crash eventually though because of the recursion you've set up. Also, there's no reason to use Call you can just go to the function like this test(), that will jump to the test function the same as using Call does, it'll save you a lot of unnecessary typing. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

DeusExMachina Posted June 20, 2012 Author Posted June 20, 2012 I have edited it without the call, now it seems to work, thanks for the tip!
DeusExMachina Posted June 23, 2012 Author Posted June 23, 2012 (edited) Alright at first I didn't really knew about the recursion you mean, but now I do. I've tried several ways to bypass it, like increasing the sleep timer so that it won't go directly to the next function but that didn't worked. What I want to do is calling a function, and that function needs to "loop" itself until the conditions are met before he can run his code. I notice that via this way I always get the recursion error, so is there an other way to loop function 2 until the conditions are met? This is what I have now: Call ("test1") Func test1() Sleep(2500) Call("test2") EndFunc Func test2() $Gostart = PixelSearch(1322, 157, 1344, 172, 0xf3c513) If @Error Then Sleep(2500) Call("test1") Else ;bunch of other unrelated codes EndIf EndFunc EDIT: Okay I tried some thing now and I included a while loop, it does work for me, but how do I know this wouldn't achieve another recursion error? This is the new code I'm talking about: Call ("test1") Func test1() Sleep(2500) Call("test2") EndFunc Func test2() While $loop $Gostart = PixelSearch(1322, 157, 1344, 172, 0xf3c513) If @Error Then ;do nothing Else ;bunch of other unrelated codes EndIf EndFunc WeEnd Edited June 23, 2012 by DeusExMachina
