Scripting Newbie

Hi, I am trying to script something for a game, and I have everything working except one key being sent... Here is the portion of the script...

Sleep(9000);

AutoItSetOption("SendKeyDelay", 0235);

Send ("!i");

Sleep(0250);

Send ("{NUMPADADD}");

Sleep (0250);

Send ("{ENTER}");

sleep(0350);

<b>Send ( "a" ); </b>

sleep(0350);

Send ("{ENTER}");

sleep(0250);

Send ("{ESCAPE}");

sleep(0250);

Send ("{ESCAPE}");

Sleep (0250);

The bold is what does not seem to work. If this is all correct and it is maybe a problem with a game, could you tell me how to script arrow up?

Thanks alot ^^

ok I guess <b> </b> doesnt work, but you get the picture...

hmm

firstly, unlike java or whatever programming language you are familiar with, autoit does not require a ";" at the end of your lines of code. This does not affect your script, but it is messy.

secondly, try a sendkeydelay, this is often the problem when sending key commands to games... if its for ffxi, try a 4ms delay

AutoItSetOption ( SendKeyDelay, "milliseconds to pause for without the quotes" )

That should be the first line of your code, then just type code as usual
