This is a start timer for MWO to remind the user acoustical of the current ready state of the game. Intention is that the user dont forget that he have started a match by clicking the launch button and then do something else while the game is loading.

The new ready system is rather annoying, because you have to stay focused to the game surface and just STARE on your monitor for about 2 minutes.
This script automates this ready system by clicking on the ready button without the requirement of the users attention.

So, now you can just click on LAUNCH and surf the Internet or making baby's with your partner or whatever, while the game does its voodoo till the game finally starts and the macro pops you into the game.
Its just a fun script. You can use it for MWO if you like or use it to learn scripting yourself.

This script indicates the 3 states with sound beeps and do the appropriate actions.
States are:
- going to full screen, when MM finally found a team
- indicate the ready button is available and focus to MWO and click ready, then alt tab back to whatever you where before (e.g. Web Browser)
- match start 3xbeep, then focus to the game.
- after the match, 3xbeep when the client is ready to be operated again

how to use: compile and start it with MWO.
To end the macro: close the macro window.

Spoiler

I use specific time values in this script to determine the ready states, 30seconds to load to the pre match screen and 60 seconds for the user waiting ready system.
You may have to adapt the timings to your computer when it loads faster or slower on your machine!

Also, this script is for 1920x1080. Modify the values if you use another game resolution.
It works for me on "Full Windowed" and also on "Fullscreen". There could be a problem with timings for the ready button in Fullscreen mode, and multi screen configuration is also not tested.
In future i will try another fullscreen detection method. resolution independant.
