Scripting Help Pwease

[Mersaydes]

Well, I have been working on this Urgh script for quite some time now. I fixed all the errors and created a loop that checks exp. Yay for me. Now, I have been constantly running into a new problem... and I really don't know how to fix it.

You see.. When I search the urgh sometimes it does it too soon (even though I have it wait) and i get a "...wait 1 sec. thingy". This causes my script to stop. And whilst I am always at the computer when it happens, I usually have gemstone running in the background. So, instead of having to constantly check.. I want to filter out ...wait or create some sort of loop that sends the script back to the search function.. "dead/death".

Anyone know how to do it?

can't pause .5, pause pauses for 1 second, it goes by seconds,
to fix your wait 1 second,
do
waitfor roundtime
pause
search urgh

[Trinitis]

or if you want to add a check to work around any rountime errors you hit, just do something like this..

search:
put search urgh
match yes You search
match no ...wait
matchwait

no:
pause 1
goto search
Something like that.
