Auto Button Presser

[omglol]

ok, i've got this:

; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; AutoIt Version: 3.1.0
; Author:        A.N.Other <myemail@nowhere.com>
;
; Script Function:
;   Template AutoIt script.
;
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

; Script Start - Add your code below here

while 1
send("s")
sleep(200)
wend

i want the code to basically non-stop press the letter S every .2 seconds or so, this is the pick-up button in an online game.

if i make it a .exe it doesn't work, and I also want to add that i can start the script with the Home button and stop it with End.

well goodluck then.

What exactly do you need help with?

What exactly do you need help with?

this doesn't work, when it needs to pick up an item, wich needs to be done with pressing the letter S on my keyboard, it doesn't, it only spams the message bar with the letters S.

so what i need is, an auto item pickup script.

Then learn how to code, and try the tutorial I gave you from the other post in the Scripts and Scraps forum. Only effort put forward is rewarded 99% of the time in this forum. If you want someone to write it for you, then go to rentacoder.com and bid for it.

To start and stop w/ home and end, look into hotkeyset

Tutorial:

Add this to top of code:

HotKeySet("{HOME}", "Start")
HotKeySet("{END}", "Stop")

The completed code above (thats in the "So all together") is where to start

Copy that into your script, and where i said

;Your code Here

You put the code that actually does whatever you need it to do

Note:

sending keys in games might not work, because some games prevent other programs from sending keys or mouse movements intentionally to stop cheaters

Read? That was an interactive tutorial ...

[omglol]

That one gave an error and quit

If you "read" the instructions before you just downloaded and gave it a go, it requires AutoIt Beta, which it provided the option to download as well.

To send the key "S" instead of the letter, use:

Send("{S}")

Everything you need to know is in the help file.. very easy script to write.

[Richard Robertson]

By message bar, do you mean a text area? You have to click out of the text area so that it does not have the focus.

If you want AutoIt to only send to the game, use the info tool to find the control to ControlSend(..., "s") to the game area.

I don't think that thats correct

you only need the {}'s if its a special key like {HOME} or {ESC}

because it sends the key {ESC} with the brakets but just types "esc" without them

and you want it to push "s", and "s" is not a special key

You may be right.. the help file doesn't make clear if it sends an actual S or the action associated with "S", whatever that may be.

From what I gather (I may be wrong), Send("S") would send an uppercase S to the window. Send("{S}") would actually invoke the action involved with pressing S on the keyboard, instead of sending the letter to the window.

Kinda confusing.
