I want robotux to adjust the keys pressed with each iteration. For example, the Macro Editor might have something like PRESS 1 @ 3789 if I told it to press the 1-key. I might want it to adjust with each iteration as follows...

PRESS 2 @ 3789

PRESS 3 @ 3789

PRESS 4 @ 3789

and so on.

 

I could do something like that with OnBoard (the on-screen keyboard) by having it drag to the left with each iteration, but functionality would be extremely limited. What if I want it to do 00-99? I would have to stop it before the 0-key, edit the macro, drag OnBoard back exactly, then start it again.

You would need to add a counter and possibly a loop.

 

pseudocode:

 

for (i = 1; i < 100; i++) {
PRESS i @ 3789;
}

 

Otherwise you can instead create one script with each change hard coded.

 

ie.

PRESS 1 @ 3789

WAIT(or equivalent only if necessary)

PRESS 2 @ 3789

WAIT

...

 

May be an idea to look at different scripting programs.

Or rather than enter a WAIT command, I could have it stop after only 1 iteration, right before the numbers are entered. Then I'll just enter the numbers and hit ctrl + shift + F8 to start it again. Thanks!

This is interesting I haven't used robotux before. Do you think you could use this when making animated gifs. Say a load of images exactly the same just moving the animated object more with each iteration?

I've never made animated gifs. If you can move it with the arrow keys, then yes, definitely.

The orientation of the mouse won't change with each iteration, so for example, leaving the mouse leftward at the end of the recording won't cause the mouse to left-shift with each iteration. Doing what you want with the mouse might require that scroll or move the window with each iteration.

It's easy. You have a series of images in BMP file format. Then you get JavaScript to run through each of the images. The JavaScript is built into browsers already for GIFs it wasn't always.
