Looping with Counter

[Guest BL@(K-R34P3R]

Ok, I'm trying to make this script. I want it to look 100 times, then press -> and -< then restart the loop. This is all I have so far, and it's not working, suggestions?

$counter = 0

Sleep(10000)
TrainFunc()
Func TrainFunc()
   $counter = $counter + 1
   While 1
   Send("{CTRLDOWN}")
   Sleep(500)
   Send("{CTRLUP}")
   If $counter >= 100 Then;If it has looped 100 times then press ->, -< then restart.
  ;I want to insert the arrow keys here... Also, I don't know how to send the arrow keys. 
   Wend
   Endif
EndFunc

you're making me want to put the "F" back in RTFM...

{UP} Cursor up

{DOWN} Cursor down

{LEFT} Cursor left

{RIGHT} Cursor right

Uh... Thanks? Also, the if statement doesn't work even without the arrow keys... I guess I fogot to mention that before. Anyways, the Wend supposedly can't be placed into an if statement, how do I work around this?

[Guest BL@(K-R34P3R]

Thanks Lar.

Don't put it in an If statement, duh.

Just a bit of FYI, remember to have all your loops and if statements inside one anouther.

Ex:

BAD=

While 1
  Send("{CTRLDOWN}")
  Sleep(500)
  Send("{CTRLUP}")
  If $counter >= 100 Then;If it has looped 100 times then press ->, -< then restart.
;I want to insert the arrow keys here... Also, I don't know how to send the arrow keys.
  Wend
  Endif

Better=

While 1; I am on the outside
  Send("{CTRLDOWN}")
  Sleep(500)
  Send("{CTRLUP}")
  If $counter >= 100 Then; I am on the inside
;If it has looped 100 times then press ->, -< then restart.
;I want to insert the arrow keys here... Also, I don't know how to send the arrow keys.
  
  Endif; I am on the inside
Wend; I am on the outside

This is called Nesting, as you can see below this uses two While statements, an if and a do...until all just fine, although it really does nothing.

While 1
do
$x=1
sleep(10)
if winactive("fred") then
while $x=1
sleep(10)
$x=2
wend
endif
until winactive("the cows come home")
wend

Thanks. New problem to add. The {LEFT} and {RIGHT} are apparently not working for me. I tried doing {LEFTDOWN} but that isn't working either. Any suggestions? And yes, I put a sleep in between them.

ADDED: It compiles fine, but just won't do it....

I found the route of the problem. For some reason the {LEFT} and {RIGHT} send keys are sending the number pad arrow keys. How can I send the other arrow keys? Help!

[CyberSlug]

It sends the normal left button according to this software :hmm:

If this is for a game, remember that not all games accept simulated input espesially since AutoIt does not use keyboard hooks.....

Get one of these guys. It worked for Homer Simpson (mostly)

[Guest BL@(K-R34P3R]

Larry, can you elaborate slightly? And CyberSlug, I know the game accepts it... because it will do the ctrl part. I'm just trying to get aruond the games anti-hack programming. It has it set so that if u attack (click control) more than 40 times in a row, it will not let you attack till you move to a new spot.

[Valik]

Apparently the game isn't accepting it or it would be working, duh.

[Guest BL@(K-R34P3R]

But the Ctrl key works. Only thing that isn't working is the -> and <-

[Valik]

Well whoopity-doo, so the Ctrl key works. The other keys don't work, thus the game isn't accepting them.

[Matt @ MPCS]

Hmmm... why would a game disable the keys needed to control the player in the game but not all the buttons? Maybe to confuse idiot kids trying to control the game externally... oh no they wouldn't do that.

Yes, exactly why I have to get this! Those damn game designers are trying to prevent me from making a trainer but I won't let them!!!

You can't stop them, they are smarter than you.

[Matt @ MPCS]

Larry's suggestion might actually work as a workaround for this. Instead of asking him to elaborate... how bout doing some googling on your own? He already gave you the keywords you need.

*** Matt @ MPCS

[Guest BL@(K-R34P3R]

Smarter yes, older yes, make more money yes.

But I guarentee you I will figure it out.

[Valik]

I'm not giving you a cookie if you do.
