Ignoring event prob help

Soulzek · Post by **Soulzek** » Mon Sep 22, 2003 1:13 am

For unknown reason, this macro just skips the /doevent.... for instance, if i run this and the forge is being used, i would get the echo "passed the event, no good" when i should be getting "this echo is in the sub event". Any idea why its ignoring the "/doevent"'s i stuck above AND below the /click?

Code: Select all

#turbo
#event Forgeinuse "Someone else is using that"

Sub Main
:forgebad
/if $GM==TRUE /call GMDetect
/delay 5
/mouseto 52 456
/delay 5
[b]/doevents
/click left
/doevents[/b]
/delay 2
/echo passed the event, no good
/return

Sub Event_Forgeinuse
/echo this echo is in the sub event
/return

Fixed, just needed to add a /delay 5 between the click and the /doevents to give it time to register the string...

/click always has a lag to it. Usually a /delay 2 (at least for my machine) give enough time for the click to be executed and then recognized by EQ. Pretty much the delay is always necessary to give EQ a chance to recognize that the mouse has been clicked.

In other words, MQ is faster than EQ, so we have to script in delays to allow EQ to catch up.
