A click-script out of control... Help

[codebegins]

This beautiful script does what it does, spamming left mouse clicks - but it can't be stopped. How to stop it? Both ESC and Pause do not seem to work
 

Quote

 

Global $Paused, $counter = 0
HotKeySet("{PAUSE}", "Pause")
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Beenden")

While 1
MouseClick("left")
WEnd

Func TogglePause()
$Paused = NOT $Paused
While $Paused
sleep(100)
WEnd
EndFunc

Func Terminate()
Exit 0
EndFunc

 

Much appreciated

Best regards!

AutoIt3 is pretty clever but doesn't do translations or guessing as yet!

These lines set the Func to be performed when that key is pressed..... where are they?

HotKeySet("{PAUSE}", "Pause")
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Beenden")

ps: This feels like a game automation script so please ensure you familiarize yourself with our forum rules!

Hi.

Your names of the functions Func ...() had to match the names of the functions inside your HotKeySet(...).

I knew it!! I got into programming lately and start to understand more and more

See it like this: You are a child and hear your parents talking and you repeat what they say, not knowing the Meaning and what it Does, what effect it has. Same with programming language. I want to do something, someone tells me "this is it". I copy paste it, not knowing what it does, and it then being incomplete gives all sorts of problems. Now I have to understand what it actually means, to make it perfect. That is great learning.

How would this look like, in this example, so I can then understand it correctly?

Simply giving me the terms in a copy-paste fashion, doesnt really make me learn more

Can you assist with both briefly?

Hi.

To make it clear:

Global $Paused ; means $Paused = FALSE
HotKeySet("{PAUSE}", "Pause") ; here you call Pause()
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Beenden") ; here you call Beenden()

While 1
    MouseClick("left")
WEnd

Func Pause() ; you named it TogglePause() but should be Pause()
    $Paused = NOT $Paused ; here you always toogle between $Paused = FALSE and $Paused = TRUE
    While $Paused ; means loop as long $Paused = TRUE
        sleep(100)
    WEnd
EndFunc

Func Beenden() ; you named it Terminate() but should be Beenden()
    Exit 0
EndFunc

Got it?

P.S. If you post code please don’t use the tags quote but tags code (this is this button: <>).

@codebegins As has been asked more than once now, what is your click script being used for (app or website)? Part of the issue is that MouseClick is inherently unreliable; there are 100 better ways to do it. But without a detailed explanation of what you're trying to accomplish, we can't exactly help.

In my view, the clicks are not going to pause that way. But i won't give any input until mods say ok.

Thank you for your replies

Something isn't right with the logic in this script..

what do you want to post and need an okay for? Has this something to do Jos was writing about regarding forum rules? Sorry, I'm completely new

[careca]

The thing is, if a moderator has asked something, and the op didn't give any answer, other people shouldn't post anything else unless the mod says it's ok.

In this case, the mod asked what is this for, so until he gets an answer and gives the ok, no one should reply anymore. Been there, done that.
