nick050183 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I'm somewhat of a newbie. I've written a few autoit scripts but they are fairly basic. Just looking for pixels and clicking on points. Video game automation. The problem I'm having is that my script will often stop at a certain point. I don't want to rerun the whole thing I want to restart it where it stopped. Because rerunning the whole script won't work anyway its already past a lot of the steps. But I don't know how to do that. I've considered writing to a .txt file every time it completes a step and then have some sort of checker. There has to be a better way to do it. Thank you ahead of time.

You will not receive any help on this subject. On the broader subject of starting and stopping at certain points, look at Functions (index search Func) in the help file.

Moderators JLogan3o13 Posted May 23, 2018 Moderators Share Posted May 23, 2018 @b9k As the OP states he is looking for stopping and starting at different points based on the script completing specific steps, the manual intervention of a Hotkey is not going to be what he is after.

b9k Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 (edited) he didn't say he wants to do that automatically, iBut how does he determine that the script needs to be restarted? A total restart may not be necessary: I think OP is having a problem where likely something needs to be clicked but the script is stuck waiting for a colored pixel (or some other check) while the button is already there, so the practical solution should be to have a "skip check" hotkey that sets a flag to skip the current check and click anyways, and then he could use that hotkey example to code appropriate start/stop/pause/skip hotkeys needed for the usual game automations, but that is another story. Ps. Since you are a moderator could you please move this thread to the appropriate category? Edited May 25, 2018 by b9k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
