_ispressed Help

[Dethredic 0]

Ok I have a function that is not working properly. It is below:

Dim $tooltip = @ScriptDir & "\tool tip.au3"

Func Auto_Bot() ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

$HomeLocKey = IniRead("config.ini", "Hotkeys", "HomeLocationKey", "74") ;Default = F5

$toggelKey = IniRead("config.ini", "Hotkeys", "toggelKey", "73") ;Default = F4

$autobotstatus = "Off"

$locationset = "False"

IniWrite("tooltip.ini", "options", "toggel", "Off")

IniWrite("tooltip.ini", "options", "locationset", "False")

While 1

If _IsPressed($HomeLocKey) Then ;Get Home Location

$locationset = "True"

IniWrite("tooltip.ini", "options", "locationset", "True")

Run(@AutoItExe & ' "' & $tooltip & '"')

Call("Homelocation")

EndIf

If _IsPressed($toggelKey) Then ;Togel it on and off

If $autobotstatus = "Off" Then

$autobotstatus = "On"

IniWrite("tooltip.ini", "options", "toggel", "On")

Run(@AutoItExe & ' "' & $tooltip & '"')

Else

$autobotstatus = "Off"

IniWrite("tooltip.ini", "options", "toggel", "Off")

Run(@AutoItExe & ' "' & $tooltip & '"')

EndIf

Sleep(100)

EndIf

If $autobotstatus = "On" Then ;If it is on and a location has been set then Look for low hp guys

If $locationset = "True" Then

Call("Sendlowhpguyshome")

EndIf

EndIf

Call("Checkbases")

Sleep(10)

WEnd

EndFunc ;==>Auto_Bot

Here is the tool tip.au3

$whichbot = IniRead("tooltip.ini", "options", "whichbot", "Autobot")
$toggel = IniRead("tooltip.ini", "options", "toggel", "Off")
$locationset = IniRead("tooltip.ini", "options", "locationset", "False")

ToolTip($whichbot & " is " & $toggel & ". Location set = " & $locationset, 0, 0)
Sleep(3000)

Now my problem is, whenever I press F4, I runs lots of tool tip.au3s. Well the longer i hold it down, the more get run. Is there an easy way to fix this without using Hotkeys?

EDIT: Anyone else notice the "Autoit tags" arn't working?

You're never leaving the while loop, and so long as you hold down the key, it tries to run your other script. Why can't you use a HotKey?

[DW1 100]

use a timer that inits after the key is first pressed... do not accept that key press if timer < 2 seconds

Are you looking for something like that?

How was your _Auto_Bot() Function being called? If you don't want it to run twice then add this at the end of the func.

While _IsPressed($Key)
;Do Nothing
WEnd

So as long as you key is held down, it does nothing but once of your func, and if they want the func to be executed again they can press the key again.

Hope that helped.

P.S: For AutoIt Tag, type autoit and /autoit with brackets.

Hey thanks, for the ideas.

Well the function is going to be the main part of my script. I just wish there was like a _isreleased

@Generator, wow, you should see some of the bullshit I have been doing to accomplish the same thing LOL, and a big DUH in my direction.

Thanks

I just wish there was like a _isreleased

DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "GetAsyncKeyState", "int", $hexOfKey) will return 0 if the key is not pressed. Although that's not different than checking the value of _IsPressed. That is the _IsReleased function...

The While _IsPressed() do nothing actually works, i used it in my project.

But while the key is helddown the script can't do anything so yeh, downside.

the only way around that, that I know, is the use of the timer

isreleased would be not _ispressed. So just put if not _ispressed in a loop and then put the rest of you code in the if statement.

Good idea sccrstvn93

thx im trying to figure out how to make that into a udf but it giving me a headache

[Generator 0]

If Not _IsPressed is the same thing as While _IsPressed which means the key is being held down and not released up.

Correct me if i am wrong.

[DW1 100]

you read it wrong.

He said If Not _IsPressed was the same as _isreleased ( a figurative function )

That or I read your post wrong

[Generator 0]

you read it wrong.

He said If Not _IsPressed was the same as _isreleased ( a figurative function )

That or I read your post wrong

Of course thats what he meant. So I assume you put your loop in the If Not _IsPressed and the rest in else?

Though While Not _IsPressed is the same thing.

This is wat i was thinking

If _ispressed () Then

While 1

If not _ispressed () Then

watever

exitloop

Endif

Wend

Endif

There is probably an easier way to do this.

Edit: and i think while not _ispressed is the better way

I tried this, and the same thing as before happened.
