Why make it more complex than it needs to be?

CODE

SetActiveWindow Asheron's Call
While {activewindow} = Asheron's Call
Delay 285000
SayPaste /t _myname, Reseting ELTank idle timer.
End

Hehe -- maybe just post the following under a subject like: "El Tank Assistant" and don't put anything else on there (URL's, or any description or sig or anything):

CODE

SetActiveWindow Asheron's Call
While {activewindow} = Asheron's Call
Delay 285000
SayPaste /t _myname, Duh-uh
End

See if they do anything

Acid

I don't really know if this will work, but if you want to give it a try and let me know what it does i'll try to troubleshoot any problems in it.

change you code to look like this:

CODE

Procedure TellSelf
SayPaste /t _myname, Reseting ELTank idle timer.
End

While 1=1
Delay 241000 // Waits 4m.
Call TellSelf
Keys @ {TAB} // change to second AC window, maybe.
Delay 10 sec // to wait for screens to change over.(dunno if this is needed as i don't use dual log.)
SayPaste /t _myname, Reseting ELTank idle timer.
SayPaste /f report
Keys @ {TAB} // change back to main, maybe.
End

if anyone else can test this and get back to me, that would be great.

Don't think "@ {tab}" will work because it sends that key-combo to the active window (which you haven't defined) try something like this:

CODE

DataSet WindowSwap
Instance = STRING 64
Toon = STRING 64
End

Constants
InstanceCount = 0
End

Procedure LoadNewInstance using InstanceName, ToonName
DSLocate WindowSwap, Instance, $InstanceName
If WindowSwap[Instance] = $InstanceName
DSEdit WindowSwap
Else
DSAppend WindowSwap
End

SetConst WindowSwap[Instance] = $InstanceName
SetConst WindowSwap[Toon] = $ToonName
DSPost WindowSwap
DSCount WindowSwap, InstanceCount
End

// Add as many of these as required to address all running instances of Asheron's Call
Call LoadNewInstance Asheron's Call #1, Some Toon's Name
Call LoadNewInstance Asheron's Call #2, Some Toon's Name

Procedure Say2Me using InstanceNbr
If $InstanceNbr <= $InstanceCount and $InstanceNbr > 0
DSGotoRec WindowSwap, $InstanceNbr
While {activewindow} <> WindowSwap[Instance]
SetActiveWindow WindowSwap[Instance]
Delay 1 sec // Adjust to suit your particular window-change delay req.
End

SayPaste /t WindowSwap[Toon], El-Tank timer reset.
SayPaste /f Report
End
End

While 1=1
Loop $InstanceCount
Call Say2Me {loopno}
End

Delay 285000
End

It's a lot more complex than the original, but that will work for as many windowed sessions as you want to run. Change each assignment of "Asheron's Call #x" to whatever it is your multi-session client names each instance of AC, and change each case of "Some Toon's Name" to the name of the toon you're using on that session. Then fire them all up, and when you're ready to begin, ALT-TAB yourself to ACTool and press F2.

Newbie Group: Members Posts: 2 Joined: 2-August 04 Member No.: 6,129	Hiya gang! I'm a newbie just started out writing my own and have loved everyones' Macros. Just wondered if this Macro: SetActiveWindow Asheron's Call While {activewindow} = Asheron's Call Delay 285000 SayPaste /t _myname, Reseting ELTank idle timer. End Would work if the SayPaste line said this if you were Fellowship Leader for a group? SayPaste /f report plain and simple....right? Jason Zero Gravity - FrostFell
