Macro newbie need help

Post by Rua » Thu Nov 14, 2002 3:17 pm

Hello I am trying to make a macro that repeats a keystroke and the delay between the strokes should be randomly between 50 and 60 seconds. Is there a way to set another range the 0 Start
Send Character/Text>1
Random>10,Result
Add>Result,50
Wait>%Result%
Goto>Start

My English knowledge isn’t the best but I hope you understand my question :)

Hi,
I've added two commands. Another random to get the part of a second (psec). The 2nd concatinates both results (sec+dot+psec), to get the timeout e.g. 53.7

BTW: I haven't found anything which indicates that MSched is able to handle parts of a second. :wink:

Ciao
Ernest :)

Code: Select all

Label>Start
Send Character/Text>1 
Random>10,sec
Random>9,psec
Add>sec,50
ConCat>sec,.%psec%
Wait>%sec%
Goto>Start

Yes, Waits can be fractional:

Wait>0.5

Wait>10.6
