I'm trying to get the below script to repeat an N number of times. Specifically I want to throw a martial hook 5 times, strip the skeleton, and grab the coins. I need the delay in there for the time it takes to recover from an action. Any assistance would be much appreciated.

sub fight
world.addtimer "my_timer", 0, 0, 5, "martial hook at skeleton", 1025, "On_Timer_Fired"
world.setvariable "attack_count", 0
world.send "strip skel"
world.send "get coi"
end sub

sub On_Timer_Fired (strTimerName)
dim count
' count attacks
count = world.getvariable ("attack_count") + 1
if count >= 5 then
world.deletetimer "my_timer"
else
world.setvariable "attack_count", count
end if
end sub

Instead of using a timer, you can do it like this.

Sub Fight (strname, trig_line, arrWildCards)
Dim Count
Do Until Count >= 5
Count = Count + 1
World.doafter 5, "strip skel"
World.doafter 5, "get coi"
Loop
End Sub

It didn't work. When I cut and paste, it entered "strip skel" and "get coi" in rapid succession. But it didn't do anything else

What exactly do you mean by "it didn't do anything"?
If you were referring to no pause, then try this:

Sub Fight (strname, trig_line, arrWildCards)
Dim Count
Do Until Count >= 5
if Count = 0 then
World.doafter 5, "strip skel"
World.doafter 5, "get coi"
end if
if Count = 1 then
World.doafter 10, "strip skel"
World.doafter 10, "get coi"
end if
if Count = 2 then
World.doafter 15, "strip skel"
World.doafter 15, "get coi"
end if
if Count = 3 then
World.doafter 20, "strip skel"
World.doafter 20, "get coi"
end if
if Count = 4 then
World.doafter 25, "strip skel"
World.doafter 25, "get coi"
end if
Count = Count + 1
Loop
End Sub

That should *shivers* make it happen every 5 seconds for 25 seconds.

Sounds complicated Rhinoa, why not do a multiplication in your main loop? Like this:


Sub Fight (strname, trig_line, arrWildCards)
Dim Count
  For Count = 1 to 5
    world.DoAfter Count * 5, "strip skel"
    world.DoAfter Count * 5, "get coi"
  Next
End Sub
