Hi,

I'm searching for a simple script that I could use so that I don't have to come up with one from scratch. What it should do - in lay terms - is this:

perform action 1 for x seconds
then, perform action 2 for x seconds
repeat 10 times

I used the search but couldn't find something like that (yeah, I know, it's probably bloody simple to code, but I never needed something like that).

Here's a suggestion:

Code:

Loop, 10 {
   foo()
   Sleep, %delay1%
   bar()
   Sleep, %delay2%
}

Now, that doesn't actually perform the respective action for x seconds - for that you'd probably use SetTimer with some kinda boolean variable to initiate the transition.

Right, totally forgot about that... thanks a lot!
