Why does this script exit immediatly?

[Renari]

#include <ImageSearch.au3>
#include <Misc.au3>

global $last_bottle_x = 0, $last_bottle_y = 0

Func lookForEmptyBottle()
   Local $search = _ImageSearch('emptybottle.PNG', 0, $last_bottle_x, $last_bottle_y, 0)
   If $search = 1 Then
      MouseMove($last_bottle_x, $last_bottle_x, 10)
   EndIf
EndFunc

While lookForEmptyBottle()
   If _IsPressed ( "23" ) Then
      Exit(0)
   EndIf
WEnd

This is mostly taken directly from here:

I tried to make it so that the image search would continuously move the mouse to the found objects (to confirm that it was working) and then exit once the end key was pressed. When I try running this in SciTE however the script exits automatically after 3 seconds with no output.

Can anyone point me towards what I might be doing wrong?

The script never enters the while loop.

The while loop continues as long as the statement is true. You are evaluating "lookForEmptyBottle()", which doesnt return any value. That function executes, and its result is "0", so wend function exits, then end of program is reached.

To allow repetition, add "Return (True)" After MouseMove. When reached, function exits back to while loop, carrying the True for While evaluation, and will be executed again. Once the bottle isnt found, the script will end

Renari,

You appear not to have read the Forum rules since your arrival. Please do read them - particularly the bit about not discussing game automation - before you post again. This thread is now locked - PM me if it was not for a game, as looking for empty bottles could possibly be legitimate......
