[Autoit][Healbot] Parallel processing?

[foxlin]

I'm writing a bot that will control my healer and heal my other characters while i multibox. (Much like Healbot AI). I've gotten everything down (reading health, casting, mana conservation, etc.) but I can't get it to deal with heal over times (HoTs) like Renew. How do I deal with casting Heal Over Times so that it doesn't just put a new one on every couple seconds? Is there a way to run two autoit scripts in parallel with common variables? Thanks

Unless your program is made of a single loop and some sleeps between each spell, it would be very easy to implement your own timer using the system "timer functions". I guess this is doable via autoit functions, but since I don't do any autoit, I'll link you the MSDN reference for the Timer Functions. This will allow you to check the passed time since you "started" your timer and do an action depending on the time that passed.

Have Fun
