syntax error

[botanic]

here is the script it says "syntax error" im trying to make it so that it takes the text and makes the $clip variable off of an input

I also think that i need 2 ways to stop it because of there isn't then it just makes a loop...

If $inimode = "BOTH" then

_sendMessage("What do you want to do?", "", "")

sleep(100)

_sendMessage("Please Type buy or sell", "", "")

sleep(500)

_sendMessage("Please Type it now.", "", "")

sleep(5000)

MouseClick("left", 790, 684, 2, 0)

sleep(50)

send("^c")

sleep(50)

$string = "^v"

while StringRight($string, 4) = "now."

MouseClick("left", 790, 684, 2, 0)

send("^c")

sleep(300)

$string = "^v"

$clip = StringInStr($string, "buy" or "sell")

sleep(300)

if $clip = "buy" or $clip = "sell" then WEnd

_HandleWindows(0)

If $WITHDRAW = "YES" Then Return

wend

the code you provide here and in your other post , is not the complete code.

For people to be able to help you, Always best to submit FULL Code. Without it, very hard to comprehend what you are tryin to achieve, also difficult to know what variables contain what values.

I understand you are probably new to coding, but as you are making an effort to provide code, i am prepared to help where i can.

try this:

If $inimode = "BOTH" Then
    _sendMessage ("What do you want to do?", "", "")
    Sleep(100)
    _sendMessage ("Please Type buy or sell", "", "")
    Sleep(500)
    _sendMessage ("Please Type it now.", "", "")
    Sleep(5000)
    MouseClick("left", 790, 684, 2, 0)
    Sleep(50)
    Send("^c")
    Sleep(50)
    $string = "^v"
    While StringRight($string, 4) = "now."
        MouseClick("left", 790, 684, 2, 0)
        Send("^c")
        Sleep(300)
        $string = "^v"
        $clip = StringInStr($string, "buy" Or "sell")
        Sleep(300)
        
        If $clip = "buy" Or $clip = "sell" Then
            _HandleWindows(0)
            ExitLoop    ;;; use this to exit your loop
        EndIf

        If $WITHDRAW = "YES" Then Return

    WEnd

goodluck

$string = "^v"

has to be

$string = Send ("^v")

(Send() has no return value so this is wrong - see below)

$string = "^v"

has to be

$string = Send ("^v")

heh, probably

More reason why full code should be submitted, so we are able to test it works.

Actually I'm wrong Send does not return the string. Will look up and get back.

No need for ^V

$string = ClipGet()

i would submit the full code but it is like 2 months worth of work and like 3500+ lines worth of script and well i dot want ppl stealing that much work of mine and i dont know of any way that i can send it without that problem... if you do really need to see the whole thing i guess i could post it but like i said i want to avoid that as much as possible.

I generaly can figure out most things im just doing touchups and since i taught myself autoit (this is my first script) I dont always know what the proper syntax is and the posts above still dont work for me...

im trying to get it so that the input "buy" or "sell" becomes the variable $clip.

this is for a chatroom thing

in the chatroom, the mouseclick will select a whole line of text.

I just cant get it to detect the imput variables because the chatroom when i copy it pasts something like" 4:39 botanic: Please Type it now." and i dont know how strings work and the help file isnt helping me neither. I would use get pixel color the only problem is that i need it to run that loop searching for the input untill there is a correct input of the "buy" or "sell" variety because then the bot could error off a false positive and cause a whole slew of problems.

the variables are as follows

$inimode is a cut from an inifile in this it is = to "BOTH"

$string is just for this function

$clip is later a variable that decides what messages to send as well as what amount to take, give ect

_HandleWindows(0)

If $WITHDRAW = "YES" Then Return

that is used to decide if they leave the trade to break operation

when i try to run this it does the function once then just stops everything. it doesnt move anymore or do anything...
