Recognizing numbers?

[Joekak 0]

Hi.. I'm not too advanced with AutoIt so excuse if there is a simple answer for this.

Basically, the game is showing a list of numbers. There can be one number and sometimes there can be fifteen numbers on particular part of the screen im searching. The highest number's color on the screen is FF0000, and the lowest number is 0000FF. So if there are only two numbers, one will be FF0000 and the other will be 0000FF; if there are ten numbers, one will be FF0000, nine will be everywhere inbetween, and the lowest will be 0000FF.

My problem, I guess, is that I don't know how to do a general search for numbers with the text color always changing. I wanted the macro to search for an exact number, 81, but I'm not sure how to do a search for it since it's almost always a different color. Any suggestions on how to do this?? Because I'm completely lost

Are these "numbers" just ordinary text? Can this be copy/pasted from there to Notepad?

Do we get to know the applications name so maybe we can see for ourselves what you are actually talking about, since you have no code and no screen shot?

The application is a game, SWGClient and I have no code because I haven't started anything yet. I have no idea where to begin. If the numbers were consistently one color it would be simple enough with pixel search, but the color code changes every 15-20 seconds.

Do you at least have a .bmp of the actual number (just a scaled sized one that shows the numbers with the background).

Why didn't I have an edit button like one minute ago

Here is what the numbers look like

They are solid with no shading, and fairly big. When I know the color of the letter, it's easy enough to find an "81". I'm just not sure how to find it when it can be any other fifty different colors?

IF you have the time to make an array of 900 elements.There's still a way.

Every position has a 0%~100%,plus all of them equal to 900.make a big array has 900 element of checksum and unique color.you'll have a way.

Start to collect it from now on before you have a better idea,if you really wanna win.
