Did peterix step down as the DFhack programmer? It would be wonderful to ask him to code that feature in!

[xDarkz]

HOLY BAJEBUS!
Astounding! This works incredible well for me. It makes designation a TON easier. Now I can start designating massive renovations of my fortress with a few clicks of the mouse! Thank you so much Shukaro, and keep up the GREAT work.

PS. Not sure if Peterix has stepped down, perhaps a break is more like it...for once you go Dwarf, you never go back!
Sizeak however, has been incredible generous as to continuing to work on DFhack :].

bump for the good of DF.

Just tried it out! Love it! I think the next step would be to draw a selection border but currently thats beyond the capabilities of ahk.

Nice work!

[Shukaro]

Thanks for the support xDarkz!

As I'm coding the various underlying functions, I'm encountering a problem with this function.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Code: [Select]

cursorfollow:
Loop
{
if followbreak = 1
break
WinGetPos,,, xtemp, ytemp
Sleep 5
MouseGetPos, mxpos, mypos
Sleep 5
ImageSearch, cxpos, cypos, 0, 0, %xtemp%, %ytemp%, yellowx.gif
if ErrorLevel = 1
{
ImageSearch, cxpos, cypos, 0, 0, %xtemp%, %ytemp%, redx.gif
if ErrorLevel = 1
{
ImageSearch, cxpos, cypos, 0, 0, %xtemp%, %ytemp%, dgreenx.gif
if ErrorLevel = 1
{
ImageSearch, cxpos, cypos, 0, 0, %xtemp%, %ytemp%, lgreenx.gif
if ErrorLevel = 1
{
ImageSearch, cxpos, cypos, 0, 0, %xtemp%, %ytemp%, purplex.gif
if ErrorLevel = 1
{
MsgBox Could Not Find Cursor.
break
}
else if ErrorLevel = 2
{
MsgBox Could Not Conduct Search.
break
}
else if ErrorLevel = 0
Goto Follow
}
else if ErrorLevel = 2
{
MsgBox Could Not Conduct Search.
break
}
else if ErrorLevel = 0
Goto Follow
}
else if ErrorLevel = 2
{
MsgBox Could Not Conduct Search.
break
}
else if ErrorLevel = 0
Goto Follow
}
else if ErrorLevel = 2
{
MsgBox Could Not Conduct Search.
break
}
else if ErrorLevel = 0
Goto Follow
}
else if ErrorLevel = 2
{
MsgBox Could Not Conduct Search.
break
}
else if ErrorLevel = 0
Goto Follow
}
Follow:
if (cxpos > mxpos) and (cypos > mypos)
{
Send {Numpad1}
Sleep 5
}
if (cxpos < mxpos) and (cypos < mypos)
{
Send {Numpad9}
Sleep 5
}
if (cxpos > mxpos) and (cypos < mypos)
{
Send {Numpad7}
Sleep 5
}
if (cxpos < mxpos) and (cypos > mypos)
{
Send {Numpad3}
Sleep 5
}
if (cxpos < mxpos) and (cypos = mypos)
{
Send {Numpad6}
Sleep 5
}
if (cxpos > mxpos) and (cypos = mypos)
{
Send {Numpad4}
Sleep 5
}
if (cxpos = mxpos) and (cypos > mypos)
{
Send {Numpad2}
Sleep 5
}
if (cxpos = mxpos) and (cypos < mypos)
{
Send {Numpad8}
Sleep 5
}

It always goes to the else-if statement on line 65 and breaks. I'll keep working on it, but it would be great to get a fresh view in on the process. If you're wondering, this function is supposed to determine the DF cursors location via imagesearch and try to make it match the system cursor. I'll upload the image files I used too.

Your code looks alright from what I can understand.

Try to put {} into each "if" statement, even if it is one line.

Try using pure "if" statements and not "if else".

Will the numpad calls screw over laptop users?

[Shukaro]

Thanks for the advice, I'll mess around with the {} and else if statements. As for the numpad calls, I don't have a laptop, so I don't know whether or not numpad keystrokes work on them. That would be a good thing for someone to tell me so I could write some alternate code for them if necessary.

Hey! So last night just before I fell asleep, I thought of something cool. Once again, it requires a graphic overlay, BUT, nonetheless, here is the idea.

So, for any designation, it would be amazing for a grid to come up, with each cell being 1 tile size. That way it would be much easier to designate stuff and make sure things line up.

Have a selection square come up to. That would be neat.

I built a fortress with your tool yesterday. It was awesome! So much faster! Just click, click, BAM, magma people invade me! Love it! (Right before I get attacked by an etin, block myself in, and a wave of immigrants comes and proceeds to be slaughtered by the etin! Some funny there!)

Also, your designation script should also work for Stockpiles. (P menu)

Also, another fantastic feature, although Toady will have to code this one in, would be edge scrolling. Whenever you move the mouse to the edge, the screen would scroll in that direction. (Wishful thinking here)

[Shukaro]

About the grid and squares, I'll have to check out AHK's drawing capabilities, but it seems doable.

I'm also going to tweak the box drawing function so that instead of waiting for the left button to go up and down, then moving and clicking, it will only wait for it to be down, then click there, then wait for it to be up, then click there. That will also make it compatible with scrolling.

As for scrolling with the mouse, I believe I'll go with a mouse click and drag vector function, where it sends keystrokes dependent on the position and distance of the mouse relative to the clicked point.

Time to code!

[ghostxxx]

Sounds great! Keep us posted!

[Shukaro]

Alright, we're in the home stretch now! All that needs to be done is some tedious label work and final testing/tweaking.

[Shukaro]

Hey everybody, time to inject a little life into you dull and dreary lives. M.O.U.S.E. Fortress is finally here!

[SethCreiyd]

This is amazing.

Thank you very much. Just thought this kind of thing could be very useful. As for the scrolling, I think that feature has been needed for too long.
