It seems that sending /invite using scripts only activates OnEvent_ChatWndContactAdded some of the time. Is there a method to get it to work all of the time using scripts(aka an alternate method to add contacts using scripts)?

Edit: Also, if anyone can help me with how to use timers that would be great too!

There is not an alternate method. However, after you send the /invite command, you can actually "throw" the event yourself. You'll need to pass all the proper parameters, but you should have access to all those when you invite the contact. The OnEvent_ChatWndContactAdded should be executed like a normal function, because that's all it is.

Hmmmmm well in that case i think i need to know how to use timers then. Can anyone help with this?

learn from the scripting documentation its easy

Yes, the documentation is your friend. Timers are extremely simple and straight-forward.

How would a timer help you get an event called anyways?

okay, got timers to work, didn't know you needed to put a MsgPlus. next to it. The documentation should be more clear.

Anyways is there a way to close an open chat window using scripts?

Use the sendmessage api to close the window. This is better because you don't need to send a message to the conversation in that way (for various reasons you wont always be able to send a message to the conversation).
