Learned A Bit, Still Need Guidance

[Gintaras]

if it's a good idea to create functions with have "steps" of a macro
...
And instead of writing a big long list which the macro runs through, you could split up the list into separate functions? So instead of writing a long list, you would put each step of the macro within a function then the main macro would consist of only those functions perhaps.

Yes, if you like it. If these functions will be used only in that same macro, it is better to use sub-functions. Else create new function through menu File -> New.

if sub.isAtHome(5 "k")
,sub.step2


#sub isAtHome
function param1 str'param2

#sub step2

how you can use if and else with finding an image on the screen

In dialog "Find image" uncheck "Error if not found". Then the dialog will create code with if.

int w=win("..." "...")
if(scan("image:hCD137C70" w 0 1|16))

Then you can add more code, and combine several scan in if/else.

else if(scan("image:hCD137C71" w 0 1|16))

;scan with flag 1: if found, moves the mouse and returns 1. If not found, returns 0.
