I tried searching in this forum, but couldn't find any hunt macros that can use locs or waypoints.
Is there a simple hunt mac that can move to a loc and attack anything within a radius. Then move to the next loc and repeat?
Maybe utilize the MQ2AdvPath plugin's waypoint system.
------Update------
After much searching and toiling around macroquest forums, I finally wrote my own generic hunt with waypoints.
My macro utilizes MQ2Advpath and just runs along the recorded path untill something attacks it, it pauses the playback, attacks it, loots it, then resumes playback.
Pretty crude but it works for me. This way you can utilize different waypoints without having to go into the code itself. Just record a path with MQ2Advpath and play it while running this macro.
I also use a more detailed version of this to do multibox farming, just program a /bcaa target and assist lines into the attack subs and a clear target and follow lines into the resume sub. I also take out the loot include and run it on another toon while this macro runs on the main guy.
Depending on what zone your fighting in you might to increase the resume sub delays to allow for ample time to complete looting.
I tried using target distance scans to attack stuff when it comes into a certain distance but MQ2 lets you target things way out of view and then you make a b line into a wall or something when a mob is just over a barrier. The most efficient way was to just run into mobs and let them attack you, fulfilling the target.id requirement to start the fight sub.
This isnt a full AFK macro and is not intended to be, more like a run it and monitor it macro. Solo farming it works great, but when you start multiboxing with it things get wierd.
Maybe someone can help me solve the targeting issues so i dont have to use the "running into mobs" method.
