I have problems solving the 12th Level of Zuma Deluxe.
I thought about writing a program that ist playing Zuma itself.

So the program must examine, where the balls are in the
Zumawindow (or on screen), set the mouse on the right
position and click the mousebutton to fire the target-ball.

Of course the logic must be programmed by hand (where are
two same colored balls together, where to fire the targetball
and so on). My question is now: Can this be done with Autohotkey?

If yes, may be we can start a own Zuma-Solver-Thread here.
I think wthis would be fun.

I have read the thread:

http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=829&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

so may be it is possible to send keys to the Zumawindow,
but is Autohotkey capable of reading colors of definded
positions in another window, and is the macro-language
of AHK mighty enough to program the logic of a program
that can autoplay Zuma ?

I only want to dig dipper in the AHK-macro-language if someone
tells me that it is possible to do such things. I think there are a
lot of AHK-profis in this forum to tell me.

Thanks.

OK, I have read know some Threads in thie forum and
found that there is a function
called PixelGetColor or PixelSearch.

So it seems possible to get a Pixelcolor in another window:
I know think about program that somehow looks like this
(my own pseudocode):


//where to look for the colors of the zumaballs and to what
//position shoot the targetball
const Array of positions [1..200] x,y, shootx, shooty : integer = {...definitions}
//here we save the colors of the balls at all positions
var Array of colors [1..200] color;

loopstart:
For i =1 to 200 do color[ i ]) = getcolor (x [ i ],y [ i ]);
getcolor of targetball(); //get the color of the ball the frog
//is having in his mouth

For i=1 to 199 do if (color[ i ] == color [i++]) AND
( color [ i ]=targetballcolor) then
begin
setmouse(shootx[ i ],shooty [ i ] );
leftmouseclick; //shoot the ball
end;
loopend;

Can such things be done in AHK?
Sorry for the 3 posts (and my bad english).
This is my last post in this thread if no one is anwsering.

Ok, no one seems interrested in my Zuma Deluxe Solver ,
so I tried to figure out my first own AHK-Script.

You must have Zuma installed on your System.
My Script shows a Easteregg that is hidden in Zuma.
It can be found here:

Here my script:

Uh... well, I guess you pretty much answered all your own questions.

Oh yeah, the thing is, we don't have the population for at least one person to be around at any time. Try waiting for at most a day, I'm sure you'll get a reply by then. I mean, if no one replies to your post in three hours, then no one just has probably come by yet. So don't worry about it.

edit:
um.. yeah, what chris said.

A, someone anwsered:
Yes I think I learn fast, but only because the script-language
is very good, and the documentation too.

I really get more and more used with AHK.
The upper script was done quite quick.

I find it funny how the script is playing Zuma for me, also it
does in this state not really play it.
I only was writing it to test if AHK can do what I want.

Next I want to try do the following things:
1: The script should check If Zuma is running, If not it should start it.
Can AHK read the registry (I have not yet checked if it can)?
2: I don't want to move the Zuma-Window in the upper left corner.
I want it to be played with relative coordinates where it is on screen,
but I have not yet figured out, how to get the window-Coordinates of
the zuma-windows.
3: The script should check how much stages the User already played
(how much temples he has uncovered) and then automatically
start the last stage.

There are a lot of things to do, but I think I can manage it.
AHK is really a f***ing good Programming-language (I call it so).

All good wishes to Chris, who has done a great job.

P.S.: I think I should sign on to this Forum as a new member.
Can I ????

Here is my current scriptstate.
The Script does nothing more, than to center Zuma on screen
and allow the user to see the Zuma-Ufo-Easteregg and to quickly
move to his latest Adventure-Stage (the program makes some
comments about his progress).

I startet with AHK-scriptlanguage yesterday and the script is not
yet ready and is having a bug I am to tired to fix now.

IF you have Zuma Deluxe installed, you can test it and make
comments.
