why not do it this way?


$betty = "Hello there Loraik!"

Func SayHello($betty)
MsgBox(0, "Hello", $betty)
EndFunc

SayHello($betty)

Loraik

You can do it that way!

Let me explain something



What we have learned here is a thing called variable SCOPE

Variables declared outside of a function EXIST throughout the script.
Variables declared inside a function only BELONG to that function call.

If you pass a $var to a function, $var only exists in the function, once the function ends the $var still equals the same as what it entered.

Global Scope = $variables delcared outside a function, exist througout exectuion.
Local Scope = $variables available to that function, during the function call.

Ok so if you call out a variable in a function once the function is ended you can't refer to that variable frome another function or elsewhere in the script correct? If you did need to refer to it you would set it up as global variable.

I am assuming one of the bonus's to doing this is to not have a ton of un-needed variables in memory bogging stuff down.

Perfecto

Ok I am using the macro located here http://www.tault.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=5866 currently as it is the only working crafting macro I can find up here (ok only crafting macro I can make work) so what do I have to do to mod the window size. It just isn't jumping out at me but I can tell you working in such a small space where my chat windows get all covered up SUCKS!!!! Seriously I hate it is so small I need it larger plus then I can try to figure out how to adjust all the data to work for me then.

Ok found it:



So by changing this string "If (($arrWinPos[2]=1032) AND ($arrWinPos[3]=746)) Then" to better match the window area will hook me up right? Then I just need to go thru and reconfigure the pixel and mouse info.?

I'll email you the new recipe thing i've done soon - that code you have there is from the old old version of the orginal script. Plus the code their is bugged, it dosent check for 0,0 position which is fatal.

Just finishing up some loose ends on it.

WinMove(0,0,x,y) is the function to Resize a window....

But to be honest I wouldnt dare change it, as its a HUGE task going through all the code and then re-writing all the x,y' and colors, then you'd have to check them all, lol your looking at about 10 hours work ++

End of the day... it's going to be running AFK, so as long as you can see it initially to get it going?

Re-working the RecipeCrafter will take even longer

Well it is important to me just from the fact I don't quite trust letting it run while I am not even in the house. I downloaded the combat stats probram which lets me link any line of text to a .wav file so I have it set so if I get a /tell I hear a loud chime over my house intercom system then I can run down and answer the tell but if I can't see the chat easy....

I don't want to loose my accounts by doing something stupid like having a GM suspect me of botting and me not be there to answer.

ATM I am trying to harvest nodes on one machine while fighting in RE grouped on the other machine and it isn't easy cause if you slack on the nodes someone else nabs them. Not to mention I don't wish to kill group members cause I am not paying 100% attention to the group (so far no problems have occured).

The harvesting bots end of it comes in handy while I am eating or playing with son so one way or another I have my toons working while I am within ear shot of the puters.

Loraik

The auto harvesting I developed which works well

Only works for a class that can pull with a bow (due to a facing exploit on nodes)

Will not work with nuker/priest classes - yet.

Ahhhh Crap... Figures, I use my cleric to do the harvesting since his lvl keeps him safe.... Why the heck can't a cleric use a bow anyway? I mean they can wear heavy armor, one would think pulling the string of a bow would be easier then lugging 8000 lbs of armor around....

mlm SOE

Question, and this is just cause I wana know. You said your using some kind of sploit for current harvesting method but couldn't you do something like:

Set pathing 0,0,0 to 100,100,100 to move between these points (yes I am sure this is no easy task)

Have macro spam the "~" key (isn't this the key that togles between nearby targets?)

$log = log names here
$bush = bush names here
$rock = rock names here
$den = den names here

and have some kinda thing like (if "current target" = "$log, $bush, $rock, #den" then press so and so key (set hose values also)

have it do this until current target = 0 or something then return to 0,0,0 and loop..

I know this is a chopy concept but I think you will understand what I am saying. Maybe use (sleep) to set run time? Duno just thinking out loud...

Loraik

Too many factors with no pathing in place and with No /face command - it's a complete waste of time and little gain for huge effort.

My current one walks me all over the place, but I need to disable fishing sometimes or I wake up in the sea

Doesn't attacking an object face you? I know I know I am beating a dead horse, the concept seems simple enough but having all the commands to get done what you needing to is a whole different story. But wouldn't you know I have a Mage as my main and a Priest twink.... My scout is no where near the lvl to get into an area I need to harvest.

What about throwing skill? Does it or would it work like a bow for the sploit? I think priest and mages can throw.. I don't know if throwing items work like in EQlive though where you could have a stack in your inventory that your throwing skill will pull out of instead of having to replace the stack in the throwing slot all the time.

Oh question, if you say have a lvl 50 crafter but toon is lvl 14 are the mobs in areas like EL and Zek still KOS to you or does your crafting lvl protect you? If this is the case I will craft my scout to 30ish and do that...

Just posting this because I am not sure if there is a link to it.. Might be helpful:

The Interact/Use cmd. would face you twords an object.
