Func and Hotkey not creating a loop?


Recommended Posts

This is the beginning of my code, pauses (sleep) will go in a little later but I am trying to create a loop that can be started and stopped. Or repeated a set number of times ex. 12 (my favorite number). As it stands now my code will not loop, any advice. For clarity this is simulating the user clicking on a marketing website, and seeing if the clickthroughs are accurately recorded. 

Thanks for your assistance. 

; Script Start - Add your code below here
HotKeySet("{F3}", "StartProg")
HotKeySet("{F4}", "ExitProg")
 
;;;;;
Func StartProg()
   While 1
   MouseClick ("left", 529, 319, 2)
   MouseClick ("left", 862, 400, 2)
   MouseClick ("left", 769, 401, 2)
   MouseClick ("left", 498, 439, 2)
   MouseClick ("left", 573, 500, 2)
   MouseClick ("left", 822, 667, 2)
   MouseClick ("left", 515, 208, 2)
   MouseClick ("left", 525, 654, 2)
   MouseClick ("left", 527, 482, 2)
WEnd
EndFunc
 
Func ExitProg ()
   Exit
EndFunc

You don't have a loop to keep the script running, so it just starts and then exits. Stick this before your first function.

While 1
    Sleep(100)
Wend

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.
