I'm not sure what the lingo is for these new ground target spells. Basically you choose to cast, then click on the ground where you want the spell to go off.

Example:

Question:
I'm sure you can make the mouse click with MQ2, but are there any commands you can use to say "Click at target's loc" or better yet "Click X feet in front of target"?

I'd do a search on it but honestly I have no idea what terms to search on.
 
As always, a few ways to do this. requires a couple lines. and you will want to determine your target's loc if you dont already have it on target.

if it is on target already:

Code:
/face
/click center

If it is not on target:
Code:
/face loc Y X
/click center

If you only want it to fire when there are a certain number of mobs in that area, to determine how many mobs are nearby use:

Code:
${SpawnCount[npc radius R loc X Y}

Here is the wiki link to show you the different member set of ${Spawn} TLO so you can figure out how to determine X and Y amongst other things of the target. good luck

Spawn wiki: http://macroquest2.com/wiki/index.php/DataType:spawn

/face wiki: http://macroquest2.com/wiki/index.php/Face

/click wiki: http://macroquest2.com/wiki/index.php/Click

note the coordinate order, they are opposite on spawn and face/click

Does /click center click the center of your screen?

Does /click left 100 100 actually click a speciifc in-game loc or are those coordinates on the screen between 0, 0 and max resolution?

Seems like that'd just click the middle of my screen which wouldn't give the desired result. =/
 
Read the wikis again. Together, it is what you want to accomplish. You have to figure out the best order to do things in whatever macro you are using. It can be implemented in a hundred different ways.
 
Do you use this (have it working) at all Pete?

I tried what was suggested and I'm not getting it to cast on the circle. It casts the spell just not the mouse click.

If anyone has a working code snip could you please post it?

After casting Splash with mob targeted and in range of spell I have tried

/click left target

/face
/click left center

/click left ${Target.X} ${Target.Y}

all to no avail

I don't currently have a toon that can use the ground target AE spells.. so i tested with other options:

Had something on target:

/click right target

When i typed that, it /cons my target every time successfully, unless it is a vendor, in which case it opens the buy window. which means, /click left target should work.

/click left

when my mouse was over an item in bags or inventory, it left clicked mouse successfully.

This should work for you: i dont know how your macro or whatever it is you are doing is set up, so i cant just write out the exact code.. but basically you need to add a slight delay, then a "/click left target" after your normal nuke cycle.

Code:
/cast groundspell
/delay 1s
/click left target
 
Check that. i was able to test /click left target afterall. I had an item in hand and /click left target and it initiated trades with my targets if they were in trade range. so that does work, it is now a matter of working it into whatever code you are using.
 
Thanks for the reply, but I did try that.

I was able to go to a banker and look away and /click right target and open a window. I didn't try with the left.

I will try using a pause before the click later that may be the issue.
 
you shouldnt have to use /face at all unless you are using a conal/line AE like ranger's hail of arrows type spells or the wiz, enc and sham cone spells as FYI.

The left click 100% worked on what i tried, albeit limited. remember for these new ground spells, it is a /cast, a slight delay, then a /click left target. so if you post your macro snippet for nukes, we can take a look.
