I need help on my first script

[Yanas]

Hello,

First I want to thank you for all those great informations I could retrieve from this forum. Every coder here makes really a good job

So, what about me...
I've been reading almost all your tuts and I found them really interesting.
I think I've understood the main system of FFACT + AutoTerror and so on.

Now, I've tried to write my own provoke bot, without editing one I found on the internet, in order to gain programming experience.

Here's what I've got :


WinWaitActive("FFXiApp");

Sleep(3000);

$Target = "Carrion";

$WindowText = WinGetText("FFACT Debug Window","");
$result = StringInStr($WindowText, $Target)

If($result <> "0") Then;
Send("^1");
EndIf


How do I want it to work ?
- Retrieve all the informations of the FFACT's Debug Window.
- Verify that the mob I want to voke is already a part of the string I retrieved.
- Voke it!
(no loop atm, I just want to test the main functions)

How does it work?
(- Really bad )
- I know the $result is <> "0" because I tried with a MsgBox in the "if" statement.
- the problem is that the "send" doen't work. It seems to send a "spacebar" instead of "Control+1"... (In ffxi, it simply activates the chat bar, nothing to do with my voke macro)

I've noticed that if I set a msgbox in the if statement, then once I pressed "ok", it vokes well...
withtout that MsgBox, I'm lost with that "spacebar" :/
(it doesn't neither work with a sleep(1000) after the condition)

Thank you for your help

PS : I'm french, so please excuse me for my bad english and/or for all my mistakes... I tried to do my best

Yeah, that should work. It might be a bit slow if called often, but in theory it should function.

[Yanas]

Yeah it should but it doesn't ^^

The Send("^1"); statement makes the game act like if I had pressed the spacebar key! (it opens the chat bar).

Do you know how to fix this?

By the way, why do you say it'd be a bit slow? How should I do this ?

Ok nice, I've found the answer by myself.

I'm working on an Azerty keyboard, which means I've to call ^& instead of ^1.


Sleep(3000);

$Target = "Carrion";
$Fight = 0;


While $Fight = 0

$WindowText = WinGetText("FFACT Debug Window","");
$result = StringInStr($WindowText, $Target)

If($result <> "0") Then;
Send("^&");
$Fight = 1;
EndIf

WEnd


Here's where I am atm.

To be continued...

Thanks,

Bon courage xD

[Yanas]

Merci ^^

Well I'm at the same point than yesterday... but I've still the same problem

Send("^1"); does NOT work (Send(^&)) doesn't neither...

how come I can't access my macro by that way?

I'm doing


Send("/ja Provoke <t>")
Send("{ENTER}")
Sleep (1500)
Send("/attack <t>")
Send("{ENTER}")


instead of that Send(^1) but it's kinda longer...

any idee is welcome

Ty.

[Yanas]

Hmm... I really found my mistake. I forgot to write this


AutoItSetOption("SendKeyDownDelay",30);


Now it works great (3/4 claims Spook)

j'avais déjà essayé de changer mon clavier en qwerty, en fait j'avais mis ^& comme argument pour send au lieu de ^1, mais ça marchait pas.
Avec cette ligne, tout marche nickel
