Very Simple Script help

[Nefarious9]

anyone please give me a very simple script i cant do it myself im too noob at autoit i might aswell learn something from it

anyway the script i want it to press "Z" every 0.1 sec in a loop and i want to have a "F12" hotkey to start and stop it

im sure its very easy to make its short and simple but i just cant get the damn commands right i tried to do it myself

[pinkfoyd]

see this command :

Send

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sends simulated keystrokes to the active window.

and :

While...WEnd

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Loop based on an expression.

HotKeySet ("F12" [, "Pause"] )

While
    WinActive("MapleStory")

Sleep(100)
Send ("Z")

HI,

have a start with:

HotKeySet("{F11}", "_run"); change to F12 ...
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "end")

Global $status = 0

While 1
    Sleep(10)
WEnd

Func _run()
    If $status = 0 Then
        $status = 1
    ElseIf $status = 1 Then
        $status = 0
    EndIf
    While $status
        Send("Z")
        Sleep(100)
    WEnd
EndFunc ;==>_run

Func end()
    Exit(0)
EndFunc

Edit: It isn't 100 % correct, because the sleep(100) could be a bit ... ! If you need it exactly every 100ms you should have to deal with TimerInit.

So long,

Mega

Remove the "[" "]" brackets, those only show you that something (a parameter) is optional.

HotKeySet ("{F12}" , "Pause")

While 1;Need something here other than blank or 0
;WinActive("MapleStory")
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func Pause()
   MsgBox(0, '', 'You made it to the pause function')
EndFunc

Also use curly brackets "{" "}" around your "hotkey buttons like Fxnumber and Insert/Pause/etc..

Time for a break down! zzz~

HotKeySet("{F12}", "_Stop") ;;If you press {F12}, it calls the function _Stop

Global $notstop = 1 ;;Create a variable called $notstop.

while $notstop = 1 ;;While $notstop is equal to 1,
   Sleep(100) ;;wait for 100 milliseconds
   Send("z") ;; send the z keystroke
wend
Exit ;;Quit application

Func _Stop() ;;Control would come here if you press {F12}, because of the HotKeySet in the first line.
   $notstop = 0 ;;Set $notstop to 0, which would cause the while loop to terminate.
EndFunc

HI,

@nfwu: Your solution has no loop. It starts only one time and then it could be stopped. That's it.

But maybe that's what he/she wants.

So, it is on you Nefarious9, to tell us, what fits your needs.
