| Crim-Training | i know this has been answered before, but i have been searching the forum and cant find it.. anyway i just need a quick idle message for a vb bot, thx, Daniel | October 9, 2003, 12:19 AM |
| Yoni | Building a binary Battle.net bot in a cumbersome language such as VB requires great expertise. Surely after accomplishing this feat you can manage a mind-boggingly trivial objective consisting of nothing more than a timer and a line or two of code? | October 9, 2003, 12:26 AM |
| hismajesty | [quote author=Crim-Training link=board=17;threadid=3005;start=0#msg23479 date=1065658749] i know this has been answered before, but i have been searching the forum and cant find it.. anyway i just need a quick idle message for a vb bot, thx, Daniel [/quote] Hmm, heres a good idle message - "Omg hismajesty is the coolest guy ever he rox0rs my box0rs" good eh? ;D Edit: Oh Oh Oh...you wanted code. Well assuming you're using VB place a timer on your form and name it tmrIdle. The double click on tmrIdle which will bring up the code screen for the timer. Then you may or may not want to reset the timer. In this example we will set the timer to a preset time. You can alter this to have it send the timer at an interval of your choice. OK [code] tmrIdle.Interval = "60000" '1 Minute 'This Sets The Interval [/code] Then the idle code is this (you will need to change send to your send method, such as adding to a queue or Something.Send etc.) Also let strIdleMsg = your textbox that includes the idle message you want (Example Form2.txtIdle.text or something) [code] Send strIdleMsg & " ~[ YourBot By SomeLeetGuy ]~" [/code] A full code would be like this (let strIdleOn equal a checkbox on the setup form checking if idles are enabled) [code] Private Sub tmrIdle_Timer() Dim strIdleMsg As String 'Declare Variable Dim strIdleOn As String 'Declare Variable strIdleMsg = frmSetup.txtIdleMsg.text 'Set Variable Value strIdleOn = frmSetup.txtIdleOn.Value 'Set Variable Value If strIdleOn = vbChecked Then ' If the Checkbox is checked tmrIdle.Interval = 60000 'Set The Interval To 1 Minute Send strIdleMsg & " ~[ YourBot By SomeLeetGuy ]~" 'Send Idle Message Text End If End Sub [/code] | October 9, 2003, 1:04 AM |
| Stealth | Or.. much more simply, and without declaring two unnecessary variables: [code] Private Sub tmrIdle_Timer() If frmSetup.txtIdleOn.Value = vbChecked Then ' If the Checkbox is checked tmrIdle.Interval = 60000 'Set The Interval To 1 Minute Send frmSetup.txtIdleMsg.text & " ~[ YourBot By SomeLeetGuy ]~" 'Send Idle Message Text End If End Sub [/code] | October 9, 2003, 3:00 AM |

| Zakath | Variables? Who needs variables? Or functions, for that matter. My last bot was just a big list of mathematical operations involving numeric constants. I didn't even use a single string! | October 9, 2003, 6:02 PM |

| UserLoser | Much simpler, better, and non-gayer. [code] lTimerID = SetTimer(frmBot.hwnd, 0, 60000, AddressOf TimerProc) [/code] Set the timer to 60 seconds. [code] Public Sub TimerProc(ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lMsg As Long, ByVal lTimerId As Long, ByVal lTime As Long) QueueChatMessage "Hello world!" End Sub [/code] Timer's callback function. Also, make sure you kill the timer. [code] Declare Function SetTimer Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal nIDEvent As Long, ByVal uElapse As Long, ByVal lpTimerFunc As Long) As Long Declare Function KillTimer Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal nIDEvent As Long) As Long[/code] | October 9, 2003, 8:35 PM |

[/quote] It would seem that, unless he were making modifications to the contents of those two text boxes or using them extensively before sending them to Battle.net, there's no reason to create individual variables to mirror their contents.
