I'm making a script
but the var's don't save, If I relog and return my vars desapear...

how to make vars don't reset?


I'm trying...

my code:

code:

---

var score=0
function scorewrite(score){
    var Shell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
    var ValRegPath = MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + score;
    Shell.RegWrite(ValRegPath, 0);
}
function scoreread(Score){
    var score = Shell.RegRead(ValRegPath);
    var score = Shell.RegRead(MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + score);
}


function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd, Origin, rMessage, MsgKind){
    if (rMessage=='+1'){score+=1; scorewrite(score);}
}
function OnEvent_Timer(Timer){
    if (Timer=='rato'){
        Messenger.MyPersonalMessage=score
        MsgPlus.AddTimer('rato',1000)
    }
}

function OnEvent_Initialize(MessengerStart){
MsgPlus.AddTimer('rato',1000)
score = scoreread(score);
}
function OnEvent_SignIn(){score=scoreread(score);}

function OnEvent_Uninitialize(MessengerExit){scorewrite(score);}

It appears that your registry path is faulty. From what I understand, you want to read and write the key with the following path:

code:

---

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou\Messenger Plus! Live\GlobalSettings\Scripts\My Script\score

---

Javascript code:

---

1. function scorewrite(score){
2.    var Shell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
3.    var ValRegPath = MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + score;
4.    Shell.RegWrite(ValRegPath, 0);
5. }

---

code:

---

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou\Messenger Plus! Live\GlobalSettings\Scripts\My Script\0
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou\Messenger Plus! Live\GlobalSettings\Scripts\My Script\1
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou\Messenger Plus! Live\GlobalSettings\Scripts\My Script\2
...

• You are defining Shell as a local variable in scorewrite(), but you are trying to access it from scoreread() as well. This won't work, as Shell doesn't exist in the function scope of scoreread(). A solution would be to make Shell a global variable by defining it outside any function, making it accessible for all functions in your script.
  
• In OnEvent_Initialize(), you are trying to get a return value from scoreread() and store this in "score". However, scoreread() doesn't have a return statement and will return just void, disposing any value previously stored in "score".
  
• The timer will still continue to run after the user has signed out in which case it will fail to set a personal message. You should either cancel the timer in the sign out event or check whether the user is still logged in every time the timer event is fired.
  
• The timer interval is way to low to be used safely. The Messenger protocol allows you to change your status info (name, message, status and display picture) maximum 10 times per minute. By changing the message every second, the risk of passing that limit is very real. I'd suggest increasing the interval to 6 to 10 seconds.

Javascript code:

// Global variables
var Score = 0;
var ScorePath = '';
var Shell = new ActiveXObject('WScript.Shell');
 
/* READ/WRITE SCORE */
function ReadScore(){
    // Check if registry path is set
    if(ScorePath){
        // Read score to global variable
        Score = Shell.RegRead(ScorePath);
    }
    // Return current score
    return Score;
}
function WriteScore(){
    // Check if registry path is set
    if(ScorePath){
        // Store score in registry
        Shell.RegWrite(ScorePath, Score);
    }
}
 
/* MAIN EVENTS */
function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd, Origin, rMessage, MsgKind){
    if (rMessage == '+1'){
        // Increase score by one
        Score++;
        // Write score
        ScoreWrite();
    }
}
function OnEvent_Timer(Timer){
    if (Timer == 'rato'){
        // Set personal message
        Messenger.MyPersonalMessage = 'Score: ' + score;
        // Recreate timer
        MsgPlus.AddTimer('rato', 10000);
    }
}
 
/* STARTUP EVENTS */
function OnEvent_Initialize(MessengerStart){
    // Call sign in event if already logged in
    if(Messenger.MyStatus > 0) OnEvent_SignInReady(Messenger.MyEmail);
}
function OnEvent_SigninReady(Email){
    // Set score registry path
    ScorePath = MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + '\\Score';
    // Start timer
    MsgPlus.AddTimer('rato', 10000);
}
 
/* SHUTDOWN EVENTS */
function OnEvent_Signout(Email){
    // Stop timer
    MsgPlus.CancelTimer('rato');
    // Write score
    ScoreWrite();
    // Reset globals
    Score = 0;
    ScorePath = '';
}

Thank you for your help, I managed to learn a lot.
eg  the Messenger can only change the psm 10 times per minute

Thanks you!

i'm testing your code and noticed that he has not done exactly what I wanted ...


when I left and return to the Messenger
I write "+1" but the score does not increase ...

is this the only error that has ...
(I can not fix this error, is hard...)

thanks again

Oops, small typo.

Javascript code:

---

function OnEvent_Timer(Timer){
    if (Timer == 'rato'){
        // Set personal message
        Messenger.MyPersonalMessage = 'Score: ' + Score;        // Recreate timer
        MsgPlus.AddTimer('rato', 10000);
    }
}

---

oh Thanks for your help, I will try

EDIT:
the code works...

but when I leave from the MSN and return the Score var reset

why?

the code have this line:

code:

---

function OnEvent_SigninReady(Email){
    // Set score registry path
    ScorePath = MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + '\\Score';
    // Start timer
    MsgPlus.AddTimer('rato', 10000);
}

---

The reason for this is because when you sign in to Messenger, the score variable is defined as 0, but it isn't actually set from the registry each time, so it will just continue from the beginning each time.

Change the sign-in function to this:

Javascript code:

---

function OnEvent_SigninReady(Email){
    // Set score registry path
    ScorePath = MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + '\\Score';
    // Set score variable    Score = ReadScore();    // Start timer
    MsgPlus.AddTimer('rato', 10000);
}

---

Dammit, can't believe I missed that.
Oh, and you don't really need to assign the return value of ReadScore() to Score, just call it and it'll set Score itself.
