is there a way to add multiple threads to script?

[rronnyv]

I am writing something that asks user for input while it's is locking the mouse to certain coordinates, but the problem is that the readline popup pauses the script until you press something, making a separate thread to move the mouse would work but I don't know how to do that, or perhaps there is some other solution.

You can't do multi-threading in SCAR Divi as of yet.

 

However, maybe you could "wrap" some of Delphi's threading, and make it available for SCAR. You could do this with a plugin. Whether it would work with SCAR's functions, i have no idea.

If that were possible, it would be implemented in SCAR... The probelm is that the engine isn't thread-safe, which prevents me from adding multithreading.

you could use a fake/dummy window with the same question/input text/area and move the mouse until the user inputs"clicks / keystroke" / selects the fake area then open the user input area for real.

 

its a hacky trick but should fool the user
