Problem with my code

[Fossil Rock]

I've got a little problem here. The code below is used to trigger the chat function in a game and then send the message.

When I run it nothing happens, but when I switch back to SciTE and press the hotkey it switches back to the game and sends the message.

Why won't it do it while the game is active?

WinActivate("Halo")
HotKeySet("{NUMPAD1}", "Taunt1")

While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func Taunt1()
    WinActivate("Halo")
    Send("T You got lucky" & "{Enter}")
EndFunc

Hmm, this may not make a diff but try

global $title = "Halo"
If NOT WinActive($title) Then
WinActivate($title)
EndIf
HotKeySet("{NUMPADD1}",'Taunt1')
While 1
sleep(1000)
WEnd
Func Taunt1()
If NOT WinActive($title) Then
WinActivate($title)
WinWaitActive($title)
endif
Send("T You got lucky{ENTER}")
endfunc

May or may not help....

Thanks, but it does the exact same thang ...

Another quick question. How can I limit the hotkey to just the game?

WinActivate("Halo")
HotKeySet("{NUMPAD1}", "Taunt1")

While WinActivate("Halo") = 1   <-------- Like this ???
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func Taunt1()
    WinActivate("Halo")
    Send("T You got lucky" & "{Enter}")
EndFunc

Nope, not like that.

Like this:

WinActivate("Halo")
HotKeySet("{NUMPAD1}", "Taunt1")

While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func Taunt1()
    If WinActive("Halo") Then Send("T You got lucky" & "{Enter}")
EndFunc

Of course, the hotkey will still be set, it just won't do anything unless the game is active. You can change it to _IsPressed() to make it respond to, but not steal the key.
