some if statementt question..

[bennyvo]

hello.

can someone tell me if this is possible or impossible.

If something is true THEN

do it

Else

Delay 5 seconds

The code should work fine, however i would like it to be like this. If something is true THEN do it, else, Delay 5 seconds, but during that 5 second, if something is true, i want it to do it right away.

Lets say something is False, now it delay 5 seconds, but then it just delay for 2 seconds then something True, so now i want it to do it right away, it must skip that 3 remaining seconds.

i hope i make some sense to you.

can somebody tell me if its possible or not.

thanks in advance

something like this?

While 1
    If [your condition] THEN
        [your actions]
        ExitLoop

    Else
        Sleep(500)

    EndIf

WEnd

Edit: Missed out your conditions

a while loop with a cobination of if-else statement should do the trick

added the 0.5sec delay

i know that script and its doesn't what i need.

lets say it start to sleep 5000, after 5000 then it will come back to the

If [your condition] THEN

that's normal.

what i need is even sleep 5000 is not complete yet, as long as

If [your condition] is TRUE THEN

[your actions] if perform.

[bennyvo]

can you post that while loop too?

can you elaborate more?

what is your condition?

i suppose you want to quit your script when the 5sec is up?

$count = 1
While 1
    If [your condition] THEN
        [your actions]
        ExitLoop

    Else
        Sleep(500)

        If $count = 5 Then Exit
        Else $count = $count + 1
        EndIf
    EndIf

WEnd

i think i make my own problem.

While 1

If [start] THEN

[Jump]

Else

Stay Still

EndIf

WEnd

i put in the delay that make me confuse, if i didn't put in the delay then it exactly what i need. so it will jump when [start] is true, else it stay still waiting for [start] to be true then it jump again, and it stay still when [start] is false...and so on...

thanks for your help.

While 1
    If [START] Then ExitLoop

WEnd

[Jump]

are you waiting for an window/application to start?

what you might be looking for could be WinWaitActive or ProcessWait
