Very Simple Caster Mac?

[BuffBot]

Hey all,

I have tried to make some macros in the past by reading the wiki for mq2 and it hasn't worked out very well. I would love to make a VERY simple caster macro that would do this:

If "You spell *name of spell* has worn off *name of character*" then /cast *name of spell on character*

Also, I would like part of the macro to be:

If "You have enterered *name of zone*" then /campdesk

I'm sure with some of you here, that is very easy and it just needs to be extremely basic for my needs. Just one spell and the camp desk.

I know that there are macros out there for certain classes, I just think they are too complicated for my needs. If any that are out there that could lend a hand I would be very grateful!

God I am helpless. I've spent the last several hours trying to even find a macro that I can edit to fit my needs and I can't do that. I would really appreciate if anyone could help me out on this one. I don't even know where to start, even with something so simple. Don't really want to pay someone a minimum rate to make a macro like this either

Ugh, how about:

#Event spellworn "#*#Your spell [COLOR="Red"]blahblah[/COLOR] has worn off [COLOR="Red"]blahblah[/COLOR]#*#"

Sub Main
:loop
/doevents
/if (${Zone.ShortName.Equal[[COLOR="Red"]poknowledge[/COLOR]]}) /camp desktop
/goto :loop
/return


Sub Event_spellworn
/target [COLOR="Red"]whateverthenameis[/COLOR]
/cast "[COLOR="Red"]whateverthespellis[/COLOR]"
/return

Thank you very much! I will test it out tonight and let you know. I'm sorry, I just don't have much coding skill at all for macros and it's like trying to type in Chinese without ever seeing or hearing it.

#Event BuffWornOff "Your #1# spell has worn off of #2#." 

Sub Event_BuffWornOff(SpellWornOff, ChatSender)
   /if (${Spell[${SpellWornOff}].TargetType.NotEqual[Group v2]} && !${Me.Buff[${SpellWornOff}].ID}) {
   /target ${ChatSender}
   /if (${Target.Name.Equal[${ChatSender}]} && ${Target.Type.Equal[PC]}) /call Cast "${SpellWornOff}" gem5 10s
   }
/return

Use something like this

What about the /camp desktop part if I enter zone "xxxxxxx", JJ?

 

[BuffBot]

Demon H2 - When I run that macro, it immediately says "The current macro has ended". No errors or anything, but that's what happens. Yes, I did edit it to include the names of people and spells.

 

[BuffBot]

JJ - When I run yours, it says "Subroutine main wasn't found". I didn't edit anything because I don't know what to edit. Yours is more confusing I'm sure I was supposed to edit something but I didn't.

JJ didn't give you a macro, he gave you a snippet. You might want to check out http://www.mmobugs.com/wiki/index.php/Getting_Started

 

[DemonH2]

Ok stupid question, but its the only possible way i could see this not working.

Did you change "poknowledge" to the zone of your choice?

If so/not are you running this macro in said zone...

 

[JimJohnson]

If no one else makes t with the snippit ill fix it later today

 

[DemonH2]

Try this, you shouldn't need to edit anything.

#Event BuffWornOff "Your #1# spell has worn off of #2#." 


Sub Main
/declare sZone int outer ${Zone.ID}
   :loop
      /doevents
      /if (${Zone.ID}!=${sZone}) /camp desktop
   /goto :loop
/return

Sub Event_BuffWornOff(SpellWornOff, ChatSender)
   /if (${Spell[${SpellWornOff}].TargetType.NotEqual[Group v2]} && !${Me.Buff[${SpellWornOff}].ID}) {
   /target ${ChatSender}
   /if (${Target.Name.Equal[${ChatSender}]} && ${Target.Type.Equal[PC]}) /call Cast "${SpellWornOff}" gem5 10s
   }
/return

Didn't change the name of zone and tried it in pok and out of it. Wouldn't start. On either.

You need to #Include Spell_Routines.ini in the top of that or it wont work.

#include spell_routines.inc

#Event BuffWornOff "Your #1# spell has worn off of #2#." 

Sub Main
/declare sZone int outer ${Zone.ID}
   :loop
      /doevents
      /if (${Zone.ID}!=${sZone}) {
         /camp desktop
         /endmacro
      }
   /goto :loop
/return

Sub Event_BuffWornOff(SpellWornOff, ChatSender)
   /if (${Spell[${SpellWornOff}].TargetType.NotEqual[Group v2]} && !${Me.Buff[${SpellWornOff}].ID}) {
   /target ${ChatSender}
   /if (${Target.Name.Equal[${ChatSender}]} && ${Target.Type.Equal[PC]}) /call Cast "${SpellWornOff}" gem5 10s
   }
/return

Alright, once again the only thing it does when I type /mac buff (name of macro), is say "The current macro has ended"

I have tried in PoK and out of PoK. I have the spell_routines.ini in my mac folder.

Well, there's no message saying the macro is loaded. I'm guessing that it's loaded and waiting to do its thing but you're not giving it a chance.

You're right, there is no starting message. However, the end message comes right when I try to start it so how is that not giving it a chance? I do understand how to run macros just don't know how to write them.

 

[unity0110]

For example, you have a macro running, the only line you'll see in this instance is the current macro has ended.

Zero macros running
