Pausing While Loop?

[Bizzet]

While 1
Sleep(1000)
PixelSearch ($pos[0], $pos[1], $pos[0], $pos[1], 0xEEEEFF)
;If it does find the the white pixel, then the loop will continue.
If Not @error Then
ContinueLoop
;If PixelSearch does not find the white pixel it will execute the following.
ElseIf @error Then
Send("{ENTER}")
Sleep(1111)
MouseClick("left", 666, 58, 1)
Sleep(1111)
MouseClick("left", 652, 90, 1)
Sleep(500)
MouseClick("left", 247, 269, 1)
Sleep(500)
Send("{TAB}")
Send("11111111111")
Sleep(100)
Send("{ENTER}")
Sleep(110)
MouseClick("left", 330, 151, 2)

ExitLoop
EndIf
WEnd

I'm sure the code above matters in no way but I thought you MAY need to see what I am looping.

My question is, How would I pause this loop every so often to play another loop until it finishes, then continue pixelsearching with the above loop?

This?

While 1
    PixelSearch($pos[0], $pos[1], $pos[0], $pos[1], 0xEEEEFF)

    meaningful_function_name()

I think the while loop is flawed

If Not @error Then
ContinueLoop
;If PixelSearch does not find the white pixel it will execute the following.
ElseIf @error Then

That means that if the pixel is found, the loop will begin again without carrying out the mouseclick operations

you need to reverse your logic.

The two functions can not be played at the same time.

Loop 2 (as I will name it for now) need to be played while Loop 1 is stopped.

When Function 2 Loop is done executing it's functions, I would like Loop 1 to continue.

No, it is right.

I want the mouseclicks to play when the white pixel disappears.

I stand corrected.

LaCastiglione code does just that, when the func returns, your main loop will continue.

[jaberwacky]

WHen it gets to meaningful_function_name then loop1 does stop while loop2 is playing then it returns control back to loop1

Edit: yeah, what he ^^^ said...

Well since you can't have two loops at once...

My current code is

While 1
Sleep(1000)
PixelSearch ($pos[0], $pos[1], $pos[0], $pos[1], 0xEEEEFF)

Restart()
;If it does find the the white pixel, then the loop will continue.
If Not @error Then
ContinueLoop
;If PixelSearch does not find the white pixel it will execute the following.
ElseIf @error Then
Send("{ENTER}")
Sleep(1111)
MouseClick("left", 666, 58, 1)
Sleep(1111)
MouseClick("left", 652, 90, 1)
Sleep(500)
MouseClick("left", 247, 269, 1)
Sleep(500)
Send("{TAB}")
Send("11111111111")
Sleep(100)
Send("{ENTER}")
Sleep(110)
MouseClick("left", 330, 151, 2)

ExitLoop
EndIf
WEnd

Func Restart()
While True
Sleep(5000)
While 1
Send("{ENTER}")
Sleep(1000)
Send("{ENTER}")
Sleep(222)
Send("{ALT}")
Sleep(750)
MouseClick("left", 655, 88, 2)
Sleep(111)
MouseClick("left", 779, 57, 2)
Sleep(500)
Send("Bizzer")
Sleep(100)
MouseClickDrag ("left", 396, 251, 674, 471)
WEnd
EndFunc

I get an error of "While has no matching Wend statement"

It says the error is on the line of the last "EndFunc"

I'm sort of lost on what to do because I thought I added "WEnd" ?

[JohnOne]

You have 2 While and 1 WEnd

[Bizzet]

okay everything is working great except 1 problem.

I do not need to play Loop 2 every time it pixelsearches.

I would like it play only every 30 minutes.

[JohnOne]

Then remove it from the main loop and consider the Native function AdlibRegister()
