SetTimer, KeepRunning

KeepRunning:

   Sleep 100

}
return

F13::ThrowC4andExplode()
F14::SwitchThenDetonate()


So this is what I've compiled together, using some codes from the BF Macro Summary Thread.

But the sad part is, that IT DOES NOT WORK!

Can someone kindly help me fix this up? Thank you.


P.S. I don't understand what the following does..
Code:
#SingleInstance force
#InstallKeybdHook
#InstallMouseHook


SetTimer, KeepRunning
return

You do not have anything that activates the BF game , so you could just be sending blank commands to another window.


The:
Quote:

#SingleInstance force
#InstallKeybdHook
#InstallMouseHook


SetTimer, KeepRunning
return


make it so this script can only have one instance at a time, to avoid mix-ups, and 'installs' the 'drivers' for the KB and Mouse, which pretty much allows KB/Mouse hot keys.

Your SetTimer, is missing a 'delay' after "KeepRunning" so it runs instantly vs after a set duration.


Also:
Code:
$LWin::   ; Left Windows Button
$RWin::   ; Right Windows Button
   ; Do nothing
return
Question

and:
Code:

;why not
F14::   ;instead of "F14::SwitchThenDetonate()"  :?:
{
   MouseClick, Right , , , , , D
   Sleep 100
   MouseClick, Right , , , , , U
   Sleep 300   ;The wait for the switch sequence of detonator.
   MouseClick, Left, , , , , D
   Sleep 100
   MouseClick, Left, , , , , U
}
return

I'd have done it with functions also, leaves you better room to re-use code with different keys. I'm against specifying commands directly to a hotkey if you can write a function of it Smile

yes, I like functions Razz

EDIT: Also, I thing the winkeys are defined to nil just because accidentally hitting a win-key mid-game can be a frustrating experience Razz

So what should I add? But the BF game is activated by me..

What should I add in as delay? Just the sleep syntax or does the "delay" syntax exist too? Then how much delay?

yeah, I just like to re-organize them like that.. So I can switch around the keys that are binded to them..

I'm really new and have no idea.. Can someone rewrite it so that it should work?

Thanks,
Jason

I don't understand the usage of the timer here. What is it's purpose?

I mean, why not just:

Code:

#SingleInstance force
#InstallKeybdHook
#InstallMouseHook

; define the two functions here

return

#IfWinActive, What ever isBF's window title.
;
; Disable the Window's keys so they don't switch to desktop while in-game
;
$LWin::   ; Left Windows Button
$RWin::   ; Right Windows Button
   ; Do nothing
return

F13::ThrowC4andExplode()

F14::SwitchThenDetonate()

#IfWinActive

I still get NO response from the hotkey! I can't figure out why it's doing nothing..

Experiment with SetKeyDelay and SendMode, games are known to be picky about timings and such.

I dont understand the SendMode because I haven't used it yet..

But for the SetKeyDelay, I'm using sleep if that works.

I would experiment with the delay times, but the first click, left click, does not even register into the game! It means that hotkey is not working, period..

No, no. SetKeyDelay is definitely not the same as sleep. With SetKeyDelay, you can define the pause between key presses and the time the key stays pressed. It may be, that the keypress does not register for the simple reason that the game does not have time to notice it.

Thus -> increase the time the key stays pressed and it may work.

Ok, so i've tried using sendmode and setkeydelay but I think I screwed up on the syntax part... but I don't have enough time to think it over with all the extra curriculars and tutors and lessons and school and sports...
Can someone give me an example of appropriately coded lines into my previous code?

Try

Code:
SendMode Input
SetKeyDelay, 50, 50


At the top of the script.
