Macro whiz needed

[Filikosmagos]

Need help from a macro expert - to see if we can replace decursive.



Please provide advice - this would be of immense help to decursers, priests especially (who rely on keeping tanks targeted).

Link does not work for me, so I'm not quite sure what you're looking for. But for starters, there's a nice macro thread here: http://www.worldofraids.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2078

Link fixed - sorry about that dude.

If the first attempted cast in a macro fails, then the all subsequent casts in the macro fail as though the global cooldown were activated.

So yeah, that idea has gone out the window!  Thx for the link Goza - guess it's manual decursing ftw.

As one of the main reasons for the scripting changes was to eliminate addons like decursive, I doubt it will be possible to recreate something similar with the new macros.

From your dunemaul thread:

and then spam the macro every time GCD is over. I am not a macro expert - for all I know there is a way to:
/target
/decurse
/target
/wait 1.5 seconds
/decurse
.....

I think there never was the possibility of waiting within a macro or script, it was never allowed as it would have been a botters dream.

You can use the 'target focus' ability of the new macro system.

E.g. You have a macro setup to heal the mt with Heal(Rank 10?) as follows:

Code: [Select]

/cast [target=focus] Heal(Rank 10)
To set the focus to the MT, target the MT and type:

Code: [Select]

/focus target
Once this is done, the above macro will always heal the MT, no matter what target you have selected.  You can then happily browse through the raid and decurse ppl or heal or whatever.
