Hi! I think I'm pretty good in writing scripts but this seems to be a too hard to solve for me. I Know that there is some real script guru's like locodog out there so I ask...
Simply: How to jump to the next cue? Meaning that when deck is playing, I want to press a button that makes the track to jump from current position to the nearest cue coming next on the waveform. Got it? Possible cue points that I use are cue 1-12. No need to write scirpt for all 99 cue points :)
Thank you!

99 cues? that limit was broken long ago.
compare the current song_pos against cue_pos 1, if song_pos is less go to cue 1, if more compare song_pos against cue_pos 2 and so on.
This will only really work if cues are set chronologically.
(haven't tested but it will be something like that)
There was a next cue thing but I can't find it, I think it was to a skin thing to display the name of the up coming cue so you could warn yourself by naming a cue "8 beat overrun" and you'd see this label before you hit the cue.

Cues are not (always) in chornological order :/ : I thought there could be a way to store the difference to a variable. Maybe if I set12 variables of 12 cues and then compare which are the closest etc?

When the song is stopped there is some function (If I remember right) that cycles between cues, in chronological order. What if i copy song to third deck, then cycle to next one, copy it back to original deck and play? Too hard to implement? :P

No cloning out won't cut it, the stop/cycle cues function stops and goes to the start,
Ow my brain hurts, my intuition tells me this is possible just a HUGE amount of script is required,
(and I mean huge)
personally I'd rework the idea with goto +/- X or buy the hw to have every cue on a button (or script every cue to a kb key)

A small application that would edit the database and reorder the Cues that are not in chronological order would be much easier ;)

I've sent the OP a little something that might help him ;)

just for clarity, could you compare cue 1 name against get next cue name?

cue_select -1 & goto_cue
cue_select +1 & hot_cue ? goto_cue : cue_select -1 & goto_cue
That should help you! The first will be go back a cue point, and the second command is to jump forward through your cue points. Great for controllers with minimal hot cue buttons. Hope that helps!!!

dj jello2dub, thank you very much!
I deleted everything before the & on the second line and it works perfectly!
