How to repeat a function in this special way?


Recommended Posts

I have a function that is made to send "c" if a pixel is not red, and then keep checking (basically repeating, see code) if the pixel has gone back to red. I may not be able to figure it out just because I'm me :shocked: , but let me get your feedback.

Sorry if this isn't clear enough.. I can't describe it very well.

Func AutoMP()
    $mpcheck = PixelGetColor(186, 28)
    $mpfull = PixelGetColor(264, 28)
    While 1
        If $mpcheck = "000000" & $readmpstyle = "sit" Then
            Send("c")
            If $mpfull = "4758e4" Then
                Send("c")
            Else
                ContinueLoop
            EndIf
        EndIf
        If $mpcheck = "000000" & $readmpstyle = "pot" Then
            Do
                Send($readmpslot)
                _Timer(5000)
                ;Avoid lag messing up the script
                $readmppotamt -= 1
            Until $mpcheck = "4758e4"
        EndIf
        If $mpcheck = "000000" & $readmpstyle = "both" Then
            If $readmppot > 0 Then
                Send($readmpslot)
                
            ElseIf $readmppot = 0 Then
                Send("c")                                                     ;INITIALLY SEND C
                If $mpfull = "4758e4" Then                            ;IF PIXEL IS RED, THEN
                    Send("c")                                         ;SEND C AGAIN
                Else                                                             ;IF PIXEL IS NOT RED....
                    ;WHAT DO I DO HERE????????????????????????????????????????????????
                EndIf
            EndIf
        EndIf
    WEnd
EndFunc

I want to somehow have the script return to the "ElseIf $readmppot = 0 Then" line to check again, but I don't believe there is anything in AutoIt that resembles a GoToLine.. sigh.

I think you shoud also be able to use Return in place of the function calling itself again but play with this first

I don't think Chk_Clr will work, because this will immediately 'replay' the function, and, when it sees that the pixel is still not red, it will send 'c' again.

I will look into Return, though.. thanks!

Hmm.. I looked in the helpfile.. I don't understand how Return() would work. Maybe this could, though:

$sitting = 0
Func AutoMP()
    $mpcheck = PixelGetColor(186, 28)
    $mpfull = PixelGetColor(264, 28)
    While 1
        If $mpcheck = "000000" & $readmpstyle = "sit" Then
            Send("c")
            If $mpfull = "4758e4" Then
                Send("c")
            Else
                ContinueLoop
            EndIf
        EndIf
        If $mpcheck = "000000" & $readmpstyle = "pot" Then
            Do
                Send($readmpslot)
                _Timer(5000)
                ;Avoid lag messing up the script
                $readmppotamt -= 1
            Until $mpcheck = "4758e4"
        EndIf
        If $mpcheck = "000000" & $readmpstyle = "both" Then
            If $readmppot > 0 Then
                Send($readmpslot)
                
            ElseIf $readmppot = 0 Then
                If $sitting = 1
                ContinueLoop
                ElseIf $sitting = 0
                Send("c")                                                     ;INITIALLY SEND C
                If $mpfull = "4758e4" Then                            ;IF PIXEL IS RED, THEN
                    Send("c")                                         ;SEND C AGAIN
                Else                                                             ;IF PIXEL IS NOT RED....
                    $sitting = 1
                    ContinueLoop
                EndIf
            EndIf
        EndIf
    WEnd
EndFunc

Sorry.. the code is kind of jumbled up because I edited this in the web browser instead of SciTE, but would this work?

Imeant that you could probably put Return in the Chk_Clr() func instead of calling Chk_Clr() again

Else

Return

EndIf

That will put you back into your While loop where ithe function was called.

But then that While loop would still just send me right back to Chk_Clr() again, wouldn't it? Then it would send 'c' again.

This program I am trying to automate does not make the pixel red for about 20 to 30 seconds. The time duration changes, so Sleep() wouldn't work. Believe me, I would have tried that already. :shocked:

Refactor your code a bit and you will probably find logical errors easier. It will also make it easier to read..:shocked:

My suggestion:

Func AutoMP()
    Local $continue
    $mpcheck = PixelGetColor(186, 28)
    $mpfull = PixelGetColor(264, 28)
    ;TODO: Why loop at all? You only read the color state once?
    Do
        If $mpcheck = "000000" & $readmpstyle = "sit" Then 
            $continue = ActionSit($mpcheck, $mpfull)
        ElseIf $mpcheck = "000000" & $readmpstyle = "pot" Then 
            $continue = ActionPot($mpcheck, $mpfull)
        ElseIf $mpcheck = "000000" & $readmpstyle = "both" Then 
            $continue = ActionBoth($mpcheck, $mpfull)
        EndIf
    Until $continue
EndFunc
;
; TODO: Explain what the function is all about
Func ActionSit($mpcheck, $mpfull)
    Local $ret = 0
    ;TODO: Does this make sence?
    Send("c")
    If $mpfull = "4758e4" Then
        Send("c")
    Else
        $ret = 1 ;ContinueLoop
    EndIf     
    Return $ret
EndFunc
;
; TODO: Explain what the function is all about
Func ActionBoth($mpcheck, $mpfull)
    Local $ret = 0
    If $readmppot > 0 Then
        Send($readmpslot)
       
    ElseIf $readmppot = 0 Then
        Send("c")                                                     ;INITIALLY SEND C
        If $mpfull = "4758e4" Then                            ;IF PIXEL IS RED, THEN
            Send("c")                                         ;SEND C AGAIN
        Else                                                             ;IF PIXEL IS NOT RED....
            ;WHAT DO I DO HERE????????????????????????????????????????????????
                        ;You probably read the pixel again and do some chceking or you just return or what ever.
        EndIf
    EndIf
    Return $ret
EndFunc
;
; TODO: Explain what the function is all about
Func ActionPot($mpcheck, $mpfull)   
    Local $ret = 0
    Do
        Send($readmpslot)
        _Timer(5000)
        ;Avoid lag messing up the script
        $readmppotamt -= 1
        ;TODO: When is $mpcheck suposed to change?
    Until $mpcheck = "4758e4"
    Return $ret
EndFunc

Uten, that will work well, but two things:

- I do need it to repeatedly check the pixel colors.. so replacing the Do... Until with a While... WEnd would still work? Or would that throw off $continue?

- I am HORRIBLE at interpreting what scripts do just by reading the source.. can you explain this a little bit more?

Also, $mpcheck will change at a random time.. that's why I need a While... WEnd loop.
