Your Code:

Code:

_ImageSearchArea("$vcl.bmp",$resultPosition,$x1,$y 1,$right,$bottom,ByRef $x, ByRef $y, $tolerance)

$vcl.bmp <-------- this is your real name for the bmp in the script folder? so use ' @ScriptDir & "\vcl.bmp" '
$y 1 <----- no spaces !!!

try this line instead fo yours:

Code:

_ImageSearchArea(@ScriptDir & "\vcl.bmp",$resultPosition,$x1,$y1,$right,$bottom,ByRef $x, ByRef $y, 50)

Alright but what else do do i need to pit as code to make it work?

Do i have to set numbers for the variable $x1 ,$y1, $bottom , $right?

Im guessing i make it equal to my coords.

Also how do i have the code return a certain value if he finds the image and a other if he dosent. Like 1= true. And 0=false

Code:

Func _ClickPicture()
	$X = 0
	$Y = 0
	$bResult = _ImageSearchArea(@ScriptDir & "\vcl.bmp",1,298,211,507,279,$X, $Y, 40)
	If $bResult <> 0 Then
		_Click($X, $Y)
	EndIf
EndFunc

sick thx man ill give it a try.

Last question the " <> o " mean when false or when true.?

Ad how can i make it a infinite loop to check untill its true. I tried adding

While 1 and then finish up with Wend but that gave a error hehe

Also im trying to search for this in a game screen ao does x=0 and y=0 still apply? Or i need to do something special so it does not search on the desktop but on the actual game screen

Code:

#include<ImageSearch.au3>

#RequireAdmin
WinActivate("Ashen Empires")
WinWaitActive("Ashen Empires")
sleep(2000)


Func _ClickPicture()
	$X = 0
	$Y = 0
	$bResult = _ImageSearchArea(@ScriptDir & "\vcl.bmp",1,529,258,810,332,$X, $Y, 40)
	Sleep(1000)
	If $bResult <> 0 Then
		MouseMove(596, 452)
		sleep(1000)
		MouseClick("Left")
	EndIf
EndFunc

ImageSearch scans your current SCREEN, not only the desktop or only the game.

if result <> 0 your pictures was found by the function. If = 0 the picture are not found on your screen.
