rm4453 Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 (edited) How would I get this code to work? If not possible/If there is a better way... How would I do it? I can't seem to get it to work properly... Func Go() ;Do stuff Re-Go() EndFunc Func Re-Go() Go() EndFunc Edited March 21, 2016 by rm4453 (Solved)
Dgameman1 Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Not sure why you don't just use a loop but here you go Go() Func Go() ;DoStuff ReGo() EndFunc ;==>Go Func ReGo() Go() EndFunc ;==>Re-Go

"however I need it to for sure run the first part even if that variable has not changed..."
InunoTaishou Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Post some more code, a better example of what you're trying to accomplish, because I don't understand. Putting a loop in the Go function that calls Go would be more effective.
JohnOne Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 What you have there is called recursion. I'm sure it has its place, but I've never needed it. If you use recursion wrong it will crash your script eventually, or AutoIt will end it. AutoIt Absolute Beginners Require a serial Pause Script Video Tutorials by Morthawt ipify Monkey's are, like, natures humans.

This Box Will Timeout And Continue Submitting In " & $PIIMR & " Minutes", $PIIMR) If $continue = 7 Then $Stop_Submit = 1 Else EndIf Until $Stop_Submit = 1 Endfunc 18 minutes ago, JohnOne said: What you have there is called recursion.

Thanks for the terminology I think I found a simpler way.... That code up there is what I think might work... can either of you confirm for me? Edited March 21, 2016 by rm4453 Fixed spelling error
InunoTaishou Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Nasty. It would work but idk why you wouldn't just return. I can't make your example work since I don't have your variables and the GUI, but maybe this will give you an idea. Go() Func Go() Local $iLoops = 0 Local $iTimer = TimerInit() While (True) ConsoleWrite("Currently looped count: " & $iLoops & @LF) If (TimerDiff($iTimer) > 3000) Then If (MsgBox(4, "Continue?", "Would you like to continue looping?") = 7) Then Return ConsoleWrite("Finally exited that loop!" & @LF) Else ConsoleWrite("User opted to continue looping >.<" & @LF) $iTimer = TimerInit() EndIf EndIf Sleep(200) $iLoops += 1 WEnd EndFunc

That way It will only submit the information to the server when they need it to instead of over polling my system and their system... Your code is kind of confusing to me if you could explain to me how it works that would be very much appreciated! Thanks! (I also want them to be able to see when the next submission will occur so I will be including a timestamp for next submission)
InunoTaishou Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 All my code does is infinitely loop (While (True)) until the user clicks "No" on the message box. I didn't want the MessageBox to pop up every milisecond so I put it on a timer for every 3 seconds. (TimerDiff($iTimer) > 3000, so when the difference between the current time and when the timer was started is greater than 3000.) Once you hit "No" on the MessageBox then I return. This might be the part where you do your Stop and Submit stuff. If you hit "Yes" (to continue) then I reset the timer so you get another MessageBox in 3 minutes.

Okay that makes a little bit more sense... Any way you could adapt it for me so I can see how I would implement it? $PIIM = Park Interval In Minutes (How long to essentially stop the script and wait) $Post_Interval_In_Minutes = How Long In Minutes The User Wanted To Have The Script Wait $PIIM is calculated by getting a random number between 800 (aka 800 milliseconds) and 1150 (aka 1150 milliseconds) and multiplying by 60 and $Post_Interval_In_Minutes $PIIMR is calculated by dividing PIIM by 60000 (60000 milliseconds = 1 minute)
rm4453 Posted March 21, 2016 Author Posted March 21, 2016 ERROR! I accidentally messed up my code! LOL Let me repost sorry guys... put actions in wrong area... XD *A DERPA DERP* Go() Func Go() Do ;Do Stuff If $Stop_Submit = 0 Then ;Do More Stuff $rand = Random(800, 1150) $PIIM = ($rand * 60 * GUICtrlRead($Post_Interval_In_Minutes)) ; PIIM = Park Interval In Minutes Use RAND for variation so Server Time is Limited $PIIMR = $PIIM / 60000 ; PIIMR = Park Interval In Minutes Recalculated (converted to minutes) $continue = MsgBox(4, "Continue?", "Click NO To Stop Submission Proccess or Click YES To Continue Submitting . This Box Will Timeout And Continue Submitting In " & $PIIMR & " Minutes", $PIIMR) If $continue = 7 Then $Stop_Submit = 1 Else EndIf Else Endif Until $Stop_Submit = 1 Endfunc Sorry bout that guys... I misplaced where the code should have gone
InunoTaishou Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Something like this maybe Go() Func Go() Local $Post_Interval_In_Minutes = 1 Local $Stop_Submit = False While (Not $Stop_Submit) ; Random number between 800 and 1150 * 60 * the minutes read from the GUI Control, then converted to minutes Local $rand = Random(800, 1150) Local $PIIM = ($rand * 60 * $Post_Interval_In_Minutes) ; PIIM = Park Interval In Minutes Use RAND for variation so Server Time is Limited Local $PIIMR = $PIIM / 60000 ; PIIMR = Park Interval In Minutes Recalculated (converted to minutes) If (MsgBox(4, "Continue?", "Click NO To Stop Submission Proccess or Click YES To Continue Submitting . This Box Will Timeout And Continue Submitting In " & $PIIMR & " Minutes", $PIIMR) = 7) Then $Stop_Submit = True Else ConsoleWrite("Continue Submitting" & @LF) EndIf WEnd ConsoleWrite("Stop Submitting" & @LF) EndFunc ;==>Go You've got the wrong Timeout for MsgBox though.

Saw that and am fixing it Thanks ! I will look at your code and see if I can figure it out and all that Thanks so much!
