LoliCode statements

In addition to blocks, LoliCode also has statements that can be used to control the flow of the script, print messages to the debugger log, and more.

LOG​

Prints text to the debugger log. Example:

LOG "hello"

CLOG​

Prints colored text to the debugger log. A full list of colors is available here (remove dashes and spaces and apply PascalCase). Example:

CLOG YellowGreen "hello"

JUMP​

Jumps to a specified point in the code. Remember to watch out for endless loops! Example:

...
#HERE
...
JUMP #HERE

REPEAT​

Repeats something N times. Example:

REPEAT 5
LOG "hello"
END

FOREACH​

Iterates over a list variable. Example:

BLOCK:ConstantList
  value = ["one", "two", "three"]
  => VAR @list
ENDBLOCK

FOREACH elem IN list
LOG elem
END

WHILE​

Executes something while a condition is true. Example:

WHILE INTKEY 1 LessThan 2
...
END

IF / ELSE / ELSE IF​

Executes something, or something else. Example:

IF INTKEY 5 LessThan 1
LOG "nope"
ELSE IF INTKEY 5 LessThan 3
LOG "nope again"
ELSE
LOG "yep"
END

TRY / CATCH​

Executes something. If it fails, executes something else. Example:

TRY
// request to an unreliable URL
CATCH
// fallback request to a reliable URL
END

LOCK​

Very useful if you want to execute synchronous operations on global variables. It makes sure that only one bot can enter a given piece of code at a time, so that multiple bots do not edit the same global variable at the same time. Often used in conjunction with TRY/CATCH. Example:

LOCK globals
TRY
// Try to increase globals.Count by 1 if it exists
globals.Count++;
CATCH
// Create globals.Count if it doesn't exist
globals.Count = 1;
END
END

ACQUIRELOCK / RELEASELOCK​

Very useful if you want to execute asynchronous operations on global variables. It makes sure that only one bot can enter a given piece of code at a time, so that multiple bots do not edit the same global variable at the same time. You MUST use this in conjunction with TRY/CATCH/FINALLY. Example:

ACQUIRELOCK globals
TRY
// Do some async operation here
CATCH
throw; // Rethrow any exception
FINALLY
RELEASELOCK globals
END

SET VAR/CAP​

Sets a string variable, and optionally also marks it for capture. Introduced for consistency with OB1. Example:

SET VAR @myString "variable"
LOG myString

SET CAP @myCapture "capture"
LOG myCapture

SET USEPROXY​

Sets whether to use the currently set proxy or not. Example:

SET USEPROXY TRUE
SET USEPROXY FALSE

SET PROXY​

Sets a given proxy. The available types are: HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, SOCKS4A, SOCKS5. Example:

SET PROXY "127.0.0.1" 9050 SOCKS5
SET PROXY "127.0.0.1" 9050 SOCKS5 "username" "password"

MARK​

Adds a variable to the capture. Example:

MARK @myVar

UNMARK​

Removes a variable from the capture. Example:

UNMARK @myVar

TAKEONE​

Takes a single item from a resource. You can configure resources in Config Settings > Data > Resources. You need to provide the name of the resource and the name of the variable that will be created (of type string). Example:

TAKEONE FROM "resourceName" => @myString
LOG myString

TAKE​

Takes multiple items from a resource. You can configure resources in Config Settings > Data > Resources. You need to provide the name of the resource and the name of the variable that will be created (of type List<string>). Example:

TAKE 5 FROM "resourceName" => @myList
