Hotkeyset a simple function - script not running for than a few ms

[RaoulKent]

HotKeySet("s", "reqjoin")
Func reqjoin()
        MouseClick("Secondary")
    Sleep(10)
    MouseMove(280, 834, 1)
    Sleep(10)
    MouseClick("Primary")
EndFunc   ;==>reqjoin 

This should be a relatively simple problem in basic logic, but I didn't know what to look for to solve my issue, so I thought I might ask people with more expertise!

Simply, when I run this script, it is very unhappy and just dies out the instant (only a few milliseconds of uptime) after I start it!

How do I prevent it from doing so, and stay online, able to receive hotkeypresses more than once, until the script is paused or shut down?

Thank you in advance,

Raoul

Hi,

Welcome to the autoit forum

How do you expect something to run indefinitly if it has nothing to do?

You need to add an endless loop :

...

While 1
    Sleep(10)
WEnd

...

Please read the helpfile, if you did you would have seen that.
