Concerning System.Threading.Thread.Sleep()

Hello everyone!

I am having trouble with a bot that needs to /teleport multiple people with breaks in between. For example, code is something like this:

connection.Send("say", "/teleport " + users[m.GetInt(0)].username + " 11 14");
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(400);
connection.Send("say", "/teleport " + users[m.GetInt(0)].username + " 11 14");
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(400);
connection.Send("say", "/teleport " + users[m.GetInt(0)].username + " 13 16");
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(400);
connection.Send("say", "/teleport " + users[m.GetInt(0)].username + " 17 16");
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(400);
connection.Send("say", "/teleport " + users[m.GetInt(0)].username + " 17 16");
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(400);
connection.Send("say", "/teleport " + users[m.GetInt(0)].username + " 13 16");
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(400);
connection.Send("say", "/teleport " + users[m.GetInt(0)].username + " 11 14");

Unfortunately, it seems only one person can be /teleported at a time. I think it has something to do with the System.Threading command not letting any other commands pass during it. Can anyone help me, so everyone can teleport while others are teleporting?

Thanks,
AK712

Re: Concerning System.Threading.Thread.Sleep()

Just wondering... Why don't you just delete the Thread.Sleep()?

Because they need to stay in that teleported area for a specific amount of time.

Re: Concerning System.Threading.Thread.Sleep()

Because the new EE server being developed by the new admins doesn't allow a lot of messages in chat for a time of 575 at minimum. Altough, some server code will remain and still remains.

Try changing it to something like:
Sleep(575);
//code
Sleep(400);
//code
Sleep(575);
//code

Hope you get it. Works extremely fine for me.

Are you using a loop? (for (..., while (...)

I think he wants to say that the bot dosent process any other event until the action of this one is done.

Re: Concerning System.Threading.Thread.Sleep()

You can do this by multithreading (Look here for tutorial). This will allow multiple players at the same time.

Re: Concerning System.Threading.Thread.Sleep()

All you need is a message queue and a stopwatch to determine when a certain amount of time has passed.

Re: Concerning System.Threading.Thread.Sleep()

Sleep is tottaly not reccomended, I would reccomend async, like goeyfun said.

await Task.Delay(int milliseconds)
