I am a newbie at writing programs with AHK.
I have gotten other peoples to work but never written one myself.
I have been reading quite a bit but I can’t seem to figure it out.
Maybe some of you Pros can help me write this.
What I want is an RPG Heal/Mana Potion Helper.
When my Health or Mana gets low I would like it to trigger the use of a potion to replenish.
I thought this would be easy, but it turns out not to be that easy for me.
I thought it could prompt to click the pixel (or the level of Health/Mana) and also prompt witch button to trigger.
If that pixel changes color (say from red to black) then it would trigger the use of the potion.
It would essentially have to prompt twice. Once for the Health bar / Potion button and one or the Mana side.
This could be used many different RPG's.
Please help me with this, I think it would be awesome to use with any RPG.
Please Help. RPG Health/Mana Potion Trigger

Here is the script that I made for this.
It does not work.
Keeps spamming command 1 and 2 even if the pixel hasn't changed.
Please help.

I changed the script and made it a little simpler.
This seems to work now.
Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

I made some revisions to this script.
This revision may not be best for all games you can always go back to v1.1.
Pixel 1 must be Red in color.
Pixel 2 must be Blue in color.
This seems to help with some games where the health or mana bar changes color a little, automatically triggering the script.
If you have any feedback, please post it.
I am new to this and would like to learn.

It looks fine to me. One thing I might offer as an option is a different way of handling your color checks. I like to use PixelSearch because it a variation value built into the function. That's really handy for games since these areas will often be a little transparent or affected by lighting. I typically make a function like this:
I pass into it an array that is defined like this:
Another trick I like to define in your script the "top" and "bottom" locations of the health or mana bar. Now if you have a color value (red or blue or whatever), you can pretty easily check for a percentage value without having to store coordinates for each one. So you might do one thing if it's below 80% or another if it's below 20%.
; Returns TRUE if the pixel has the requested color (x, y, color, variation)
PixelPresent(pixelinfo) {
local x, y, pixel, flag
flag := false
pixelsearch, x, y, pixelinfo[1], pixelinfo[2], pixelinfo[1], pixelinfo[2], pixelinfo[3], pixelinfo[4]
if (not errorlevel)
flag := true
return flag
}
I pass into it an array that is defined like this:
global targetlocation := [1337,999,0x2B33C2,20]
