Whats wrong with this script?

[milkman]

Im trying to make a basic autolooter. It should when you hit PageUP start hitting Z rapidly, and when you hit PageDown, it should stop hitting Z.

$1=2

HotKeySet("{PGDN}", "end")

Func end()

$1=2

EndFunc

HotKeySet(" {PGUP} ", "begin")

Func begin()

$1=1

EndFunc

While $1=1

Send ( "Z" )

WEnd

When I changed it to an .exe it doesnt even open =(.

EDIT: It opens really fast than closes because the script .

Is there someting that says.

Like if $1=2 then wait until $1=1.

So while $1=2 the script does nothing and is just waiting

umm just a guess here but inside of a function if you use $1=1 then i believe it will make a new local variable ($1) and it wont edit the one outside of the function so try like

global $1=2


HotKeySet("{PGDN}", "end")
Func end()
global $1=2
EndFunc

HotKeySet(" {PGUP} ", "begin") 
Func begin()
global $1=1
EndFunc


While $1=1
Send ( "Z" )
WEnd

i may be wayoff base here but i think im close

Figured out it closed because the scipt ended.

Is there someting that says.

[cdkid]

just add a

While 1
Sleep(100)
WEnd

to the top

--i think that'll do it

Now it doesnt close, but neither the activation or deactivation hotkey works =(

[SmOke_N]

Global $1 = 2

HotKeySet("{PGDN}", "end")
HotKeySet("{PGUP}", "begin")

While 1
    Sleep(100000)
WEnd

Func begin()
    $1 = 1
    While $1 = 1
        Send ( "Z" )
    WEnd
EndFunc


Func end()
    $1 = 2
EndFunc

[Oxin8]

Global $1 = 2

HotKeySet("{PGDN}", "end")
HotKeySet("{PGUP}", "begin")

While 1
    Sleep(100000)
WEnd

Func begin()
    $1 = 1
    While $1 = 1
        Send ( "Z" )
    WEnd
EndFunc
Func end()
    $1 = 2
EndFunc

autoit reads hotkeys while sleeping?

[milkman]

I think that was the initial problem, I dont think it reads hotkeys while it sleeps.

[SmOke_N]

Did you bother to run it? It does work.

Edit:

Here's an example... try running the Exact code rather than trying to impliment what your trying to do, then you'll see it working and go from there.

Global $1 = 2

HotKeySet("{PGDN}", "end")
HotKeySet("{PGUP}", "begin")

While 1
    Sleep(100000)
WEnd

Func begin()
    $1 = 1
    While $1 = 1
        ConsoleWrite('Z' & @LF)
      ;Send ( "Z" )
    WEnd
EndFunc
Func end()
    $1 = 2
    ConsoleWrite('Z Has Been Stopped')
EndFunc

What is the differnce between these two scripts?

This doesnt work

Global $1=2

HotKeySet(" {PGUP} ", "begin")

HotKeySet("{PGDN}", "end")

While 1

Sleep (1000000000000)

Wend

Func begin()

$1=1

While $1=1

Send ( "Z" )

WEnd

EndFunc

Func end()

$1=2

EndFunc

This DOES work

Global $1 = 2

HotKeySet("{PGDN}", "end")

HotKeySet("{PGUP}", "begin")

While 1

Sleep(100000)

WEnd

Func begin()

$1 = 1

While $1 = 1

ConsoleWrite('Z' & @LF)

;Send ( "Z" )

WEnd

EndFunc

Func end()

$1 = 2

ConsoleWrite('Z Has Been Stopped')

EndFunc

The only thing I can find different is that smoke used console write. How is that different than send, and when should I use this?

Sorry, im trying to understand.

EDIT: Awww sorry It was a problem when Compiling it, it works on beta test now =)
