[AHK] What is wrong with this script ?

;VARIABLES, here i declare the variable wich can be turned ON/OFF without exiting the programm V_OnOff = 0 ;On Off Trigger, determine wich buttons turn it ON/OFF F7:: V_OnOff = 0 Return F8:: V_OnOff = 1 Return ;Script, heres the actual script. If V_OnOff = 1 { Loop { MouseClick, Left Sleep 500 Send, {LButton Down} Sleep Sleep 1500 Send, {LButton Up} Sleep 8000 If (GetKeyState("LButton","P")=0) { Break Return } } } }

For anyone looking at this in the future:
At the first glance I see the error: a variable is being defined outside of a function - you can't do this in AHK as shown here.

(That is unless you:
import variables from a file, set the variable as global (e.g. "globalVar := "abc" or "global globalVar := "abc")
or you define the variables under #Persistent at the top of a script: (e.g. #Persistant [newline] fileName = C:\oof\filedir\LookAtTheAhkDocsFirst.txt)

The if statement is run, the value of the variable is None so the loop doesn't run as None != 1.

Take a look at the docs:

Also, because I was bored: here's the full corrected script:

Code:

   F7::
   V_OnOff = 0
   If V_OnOff = 1
   Loop
{
   MouseClick, Left
   Sleep 500
   Send, {LButton Down}
   Sleep Sleep 1500
   Send, {LButton Up}
   Sleep 8000
   If (GetKeyState("LButton","P")=0)
   Break
   return
}
   return

   F8::
   V_OnOff = 1
   If V_OnOff = 1
   Loop
{
   MouseClick, Left
   Sleep 500
   Send, {LButton Down}
   Sleep Sleep 1500
   Send, {LButton Up}
   Sleep 8000
   If (GetKeyState("LButton","P")=0)
   Break
   return
}
   Return
