I'm Trying :(

[Drew]

I'm wanting to make an autoit that helps out on a game. Not a bot or something like that ... that sounds really complicating... Just a autoit that will simply follow a routine of clicks repeatedly. I've done the Hello World tutorial and that made me kinda interested in what else I can create .

I'm really new to programming and stuff. ( Like this my first time new. )

I've been looking through alot of the help/support sides , and can't seem to find what I need or if its possible.

To clear a few things up , the game is Diablo II , Lord of Destruction. I know , childish game , but I like it and it passes time. Thats all that matters. Once again , I do NOT want a bot. I want it to follow a pattern of specific clicking. Well I guess kinda like a bot because I don't want to have to help it. But it wont/shouldn't be even near as complex as a bot. Is there any way of doing this or am I shooting in the dark here?

Also , I'm sure from what I've been doing , this ( if I will be able to make it ) will be script ran, correct?

God I'm new =/ . I'm sure somewhere in the help menu would clear all this up but I'm really trying , I looked , I just can't seem to find what I'm looking for. Just asking for a little guidance. I Greatly appreciate any help. Thanks.

Oh and another thing. Any help is still greatly thanked, but I don't want any scripts that I can just copy and paste. I want to do this on my own as a kinda "learning experience".

Also , If anyone has an idea of a simple "anything" I can make for practice at simple stuff , that would be awesome. I'm blank on where to start practicing what I'm trying to learn.

Look for MouseMove and MouseClick in help file, if you need mouse moving and clicking.

[Drew]

I CAN'T FIND IT!!!!!!!!!

Sorry , letting out some E-stress. But I still can't find anything about Mouse Click. Helpful link?

[Drew]

Alright. I understand this:

I have to tell it where to click and where to move... I'm looking for the cmd to make it click right now , but is there any way to know what coordinated are where on the screen??? I don't want to have to try trial and error... that could take a REALLY long time with high resolution.

in the start menu look for "autoit window info"

I see you iterated several times that this "is not a bot", I'm just curious on what you think it is then?

Edit:

Just had a giggle, that phrase "is not a bot" reminds me of "I am not a crook"

Eek no , I'm sure valueator did good on that but I can't get past the Basic Exam so =/ S.O.L.

I think it considered a bot , but that would be considered cheating but what I'm doing isn't cheating and I don't want to be labeled a cheater ><.

Gah Idk... I'm a cheater.

ok , I haven't tried either of your links yet but through trial and error , I've managed to learn all I need to for this project. Just one more thing , save me some time and tell me how to make ESC a hot key to stop the script please

Explain to me what this does and i would be a critic to you not looking anything up yourself...

HotKeySet ( "{esc}" , "quit")

While 1
    _check()
    sleep(1000)
WEnd

func _check()
if @HOUR <> "2" then
msgbox(1,"Umm","It is not what?")
endif

endfunc


Func quit()
exit
endfunc
