Do something untill a button is hit to stop the action.

[Assault]

I want to have the script click in a certain spot over and over(not at a very fast speed so they can use the mouse) until a button on the GUI is pressed, I dont know how I would go about doing this but what I have tried hasn't worked. : /

Soooo... here is what I last tried.

$Slots = GUICreate("Moo", 134, 74, 193, 125, BitOR($WS_SYSMENU,$WS_POPUP,$WS_CLIPSIBLINGS), $WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW)
$Label1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Click Delay", 16, 4, 57, 17)
$start = GUICtrlCreateButton("Start", 18, 46, 36, 20, 0)
$Input1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("In seconds", 15, 22, 97, 21)
$stop = GUICtrlCreateButton("Stop", 65, 46, 39, 20, 0)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        case $start
            do
            mouseclick("left",511,422,1)
            sleep(1000)
            $count += 1
                if $count = 5 Then
                    WinActivate("")
                    sleep(100)
                    WinMove("","",1,1)
                    $count = 0
                EndIf
            until case $stop ;;;;;;;this right here cant work...
        case $stop
                
    EndSwitch
WEnd

                    WinMove("","",1,1)
                    $count = 0
                EndIf
            Until $nMsg =  $stop ; Maybe?
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Try the code now...

It still doesn't stop when the stop button is hit.

The switch uses $nmsg because thats whats declared if you change what you changed to just $msg, $msg is undeclared.

Ohhh !!!!!!!!! You fast. I was just going to post that.

Edit It st should have worked just by changing the Until line too.

Until GUIGetMsg() = $Stop

And actually all of this might not work as expected because of the sleep in the loop. AutoIt wont read the GUI message while it's in the Sleep()
