PixelSearch not finding a color that is there.

Tl;dr: PixelSearch not finding a color that is there.

Hello! I am using PixelSearch in conjunction with MouseClick to click a color. Here is my garbage code:

Code: Select all

outer:
Loop
{
Loop
{
PixelSearch, x, y, 105, 25, 2000, 400, 0x4BB8F0, 2, Fast 
         If ErrorLevel 
                break
         else 
                 MouseClick, L, %x%, %y%
		 MouseClick, L, 755, 450
Sleep, 5
}
Loop
{
PixelSearch, x, y, 100, 100, 9999, 9999, 0x255C78, 2, Fast 
         If ErrorLevel
                break
         else 
                 continue_outer:
Sleep, 50
}
Loop
{
PixelSearch, x, y, 1063, 327, 9999, 9999, 0x0D8D0D, 2, Fast 
         If ErrorLevel 
                break
         else 
                 MouseClick, L, %x%, %y%
Sleep, 50
}
Loop
{
PixelSearch, x, y, 1110, 387, 9999, 9999, 0x00FF00, 3, Fast 
         If ErrorLevel 
                break
         else 
                 MouseClick, L, %x%, %y%
Sleep, 50
}
}

;
$Enter::
   ExitApp
return

Sorry, it's long and inefficient, and I will make it pretty - right after I fix this issue.
If you look at the first PixelSearch - 0x4BB8F0. It just doesn't work. Like, it returns a value and breaks the loop. But the color is on the screen, and in the search area. I am 100% certain. All of the other ones work, (well, I haven't tested 0x255C78 and it is in the same area, so it may fall to the same issue). Please help!

Welcome to this AutoHotkey forum!

Debugging is easy, because you can use PixelGetColor to determine the actual color, in Blue-Green-Red format.

Coordinates are relative to the active window. You can MouseMove to the coordinates where you believe that the color is present.

Code: Select all

x = 105
y = 25
MouseMove, x, y
PixelGetColor, bgr, x, y
WinGetActiveTitle, title
MsgBox, 64, Color, Active: %title%`n`nBGR = %bgr%
