Tools to make writing bots easier? (Pixelsearch/ImageSearch/...)

Do you know of any tools that make it easier to write simple bots that send keystrokes or clicks when they see specific pixels or images at a specific location?

For instance something that automatically reads the current mouse position and pixel color and can automatically create code like this given your cursor position / pixel color:

Code: Select all

Pixelsearch, , , 645, 537, 645, 537, 0x2273B6, Fast
If (Errorlevel = 1) {
    ControlClick, x645 y537, My Window
}
Or maybe something that automatically takes and saves a screenshot of a selected area and creates some ImageSearch code.

https://chunjee.github.io/graphicsearch.ahk/ may match some of those features. Reviewing generating queries and tutorial would tell you pretty quickly if it is close to what you are thinking of. They're more about finding images than pixel colors though. More reliable for bots in my experience.

Thanks, I like it.
I also found something else myself. There is a tool called "Chimpeon" which seems to make creating these kinds of bots very easy:

Anyone else who knows any tools like that?

That app looks pretty awesome for the goal of clicking pixels. My wow scripts just spammed all the buttons in a rotation. Whatever ones were available were used. That was kindof acceptable at the time. 2006? Warrior tanking


May be something worth re-writing with AHK

At time of posting:

Chimpeon is detected and an account ban is often received when used with the following games:

World of Warcraft (WOW).

Well they may be able to detect it if you run it locally, but not if you run it either remotely or in a VM. But yeah I agree, it would be nice to have something similar written in AHK for free.
