Hi experts, im using this code, attempting to create a loop with a delay of 1 sec. or so, but when i paste this in the script window the ok button doesnt do anything, and there are no error messages at all, furthermore, i cannot close the window, even if i delete all the code! The only way to close the window from there on, is by force closing the application.
I know im probably doing some script errors, but this never happened before, it would always give me some error message.

Indent your code correctly.

also the timer will never execute it's code as long as the repeat until false runs, which will execute forever as nothing is stopping it

@ParkourPenguin: Thank you, i didn't realize indentation was important. Will change and try.

@DarkByte: Thank you, I thought of it as pausing at each cycle if you know what i mean.
How can i (or should i) add a small pause, as you do in other languages, to not overload the cpu?
I tried the "wait(1000)" but as it says on wiki, it freezes the whole main GUI.

By indenting your code, I was trying to point out you've created a loop that never terminates. You're just creating timers endlessly. If you don't know what repeat...until does, look it up.

I don't know what you're trying to do, but removing the outside loop would certainly be a step in the right direction.

Well, the loop is supposed to last until i close the application, in order to continuously update [ammocurrweapon], else, i need to go in and enable the script anytime i need updated values.

[Dark Byte]

instead of a loop, use a timer that repeats every few milliseconds

[careca777]

This is what i ended up with:

[Dark Byte]

because you only get the address of [ammocurrweapon]+20 once

so if at the time the addresss of [ammocurrweapon]+20 is 12345678

then the writeInteger(addr,999) in the timer will be constantly writing to 12345678 even if [ammocurrweapon]+20 has changed to something else

So place the getAddress in the timer's OnTimer

Or do:

Placing it under OnTimer did the trick!

Many thanks!

Hi fellas, turns out an issue came up when trying to set a condition.
When i use just the ammo code by itself, while ammo is less than 10, it works, but when i incorporate the code with the timer, to loop it as discussed here, it doesn't do anything.

[Dark Byte]

I've indented your code. Perhaps it'll show you the issue.

(tip: createTimer(nil, false) tells it to create a timer that is currently not enabled)

edit: Seems you found it
