[Release] LuaNinja - Run protected Lua code

[antis0c]

RunMacroText("/cast Healing Wave") is also better than CastSpellByName("Healing Wave") (less bugs, UI-like).

Curious, is there a reason why for that statement? What does "less bugs, UI-like" actually mean? Everything I've written using CastSpellByName seems to work flawlessly.

However the targetting one is good stuff, as all of those functions are still protected sadly =(

Which API do you believe is still protected?

I will check and see whether it's clientside or serverside.

worked great for my interrupt macro to exploit the twin valkyrs heal.

loadstring("local _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, interruptAble = UnitCastingInfo(\"target\"); if UnitCastingInfo(\"target\") and not interruptAble then SpellStopCasting() CastSpellByName(\"Wind Shear\") end")()

when their special ability is nearing casting i spam that macro on one of the valkyr's.

Hey guys, I am hoping someone could shed some light on what is preventing this set of macros from executing:

Macro 1: "1"
/run loadstring("local _,_,_,_,_,_,dur,_,_=UnitBuff("player","Slice and Dice")
_,_,_,_,_,_,_,c,_=UnitDebuff("target", "Rupture")
p=GetComboPoints("player", "target");
if(p==3 and dur>=9 and c=="player") then CastSpellByName("Eviscerate")
else
RunMacro(2)
end

Macro 2: "2":
/run loadstring("local _,_,_,_,_,_,dur,_,_=UnitBuff("player","Slice and Dice")
_,_,_,_,_,_,_,c,_=UnitDebuff("target", "Rupture")
p=GetComboPoints("player", "target")
if(p==5 and dur>=9 and c~="player") then
CastSpellByName("Rupture")
else
RunMacro(3)
end

Macro 3: "3":
/run loadstring("local _,_,_,_,_,_,dur,_,_=UnitBuff("player","Slice and Dice")
p=GetComboPoints("player", "target")
if(p==3 and dur<9) then
CastSpellByName("Slice and Dice")
else
CastSpellByName("Mutilate")
end

I had no problem converting this macro (Mutilate spam) from the August /dump posts however:

Macro:
#show Mutilate
/run RunMacro(1)
/run RunMacro(2)
/run RunMacro(3)
/run RunMacro(4)
/startattack
/cast Mutilate

Macro 1: "1":
/run loadstring("local _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, interruptAble = UnitCastingInfo(\"target\"); if UnitCastingInfo(\"target\") and not interruptAble then SpellStopCasting() CastSpellByName(\"Kick\") end")()

Macro 2: "2":
/run loadstring("local _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, interruptAble = UnitChannelInfo(\"target\"); if UnitChannelInfo(\"target\") and not interruptAble then SpellStopCasting() CastSpellByName(\"Kick\") end")()

Macro 3: "3":
/run loadstring("local _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, interruptAble = UnitCastingInfo(\"focus\"); if UnitCastingInfo(\"focus\") and not interruptAble then SpellStopCasting() CastSpellByName(\"Kick\",\"focus\") end")()

Macro 4: "4":
/run loadstring("local _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, interruptAble = UnitChannelInfo(\"focus\"); if UnitChannelInfo(\"focus\") and not interruptAble then SpellStopCasting() CastSpellByName(\"Kick\",\"focus\") end")()

Thanks in advance!

This hack has nothing to do with WoWInfinity.

I am in no way affiliated with WoWInfinity.

but kynox?, he figured how to patch the movement packet handlers for the 'Superfly' mode right?

one tip for the others searching for real use of this nice piece of program....


get addon feralbynight ( rogue and druid feral optimal dps tool)


open file FeralbyNight.lua and search for the lines:
local spell = ""
local nextspell = ""
local aoespell = ""
local miscspell = ""
local intspell = ""


just delete first local word:
spell = ""
local nextspell = ""
local aoespell = ""
local miscspell = ""
local intspell = ""

save, and go write a macro with :
/Run temp=spell
/Run CastSpellByName(""..temp.."")


and you are done, one button to do all the hard work with rotation for max dps.

This will work with others addons like facesmash ones.


enjoy ...

hey man, +rep for the great post. can you tell me how to do it with addons like ShotandAwe or Faceshooter? ( FaceShooter : WoWInterface Downloads : Hunter )

[Nesox]

What the ****? lol.

Well someone said that liek 7 months ago or something..!.

should be ... but not for sure

/Run temp=FS.data.nextSpellName
/Run CastSpellByName(""..temp.."")


the addon ShotandAwe works a little bit different .. it shows some cd's and stuff ... it don't determind which spell to use next ...as far as i can see in a short overfiew.

Hmm, that didn't work at all. Also tried FS.sn and FS.shots. Nothing

Which API do you believe is still protected?

I will check and see whether it's clientside or serverside.

I can't seem to get most of the targeting functions working, such as:

PROTECTED AssistUnit("unit") - Instructs your character to assist the specified unit.
PROTECTED TargetUnit("unit") - Selects the specified unit as the current target.

Both trigger the macro/UI protected blah blah dialog box. Unlike what others have noted, simply clicking the dialog box doesn't cause it to perform the action, the target is never set.

Edit: Looks like FocusUnit("unit") is also protected. A work around obviously is to use RunMacroText("/target "..targetName), but it feels cheap doing it that way =)

Those APIs don't seem to be protected in the same way most other APIs are. However I have identified how they have been protected and will work on a fix for the next version.*

Thank you for the report.

* Note: Fixing these in a safe manner is more difficult than the rest of the APIs so it may take a tad longer than expected for me to get it working and tested properly, however it shouldn't take too long.

@Elitetech

i took a second look the code of the addon Faceshooter ...
i determind i made last time a fault ..

try to delete the local @ line 1849 [should look like "local nameList{}" change to "nameList{}" ]

Macro Code:

/Run temp=nameList[1]
/Run CastSpellByName(""..temp.."")

if this doesn't work (because i can't test this stuff ...) try this code below ... if you get an error .. inform me...

/run if (nameList[1]~=nil) then SendChatMessage("test "..nameList[1]) end;

if it looks like

test "Arcaneshot_or_what_ever"

then the /run macro should changed to

CastSpellByName("temp")

sincery spud (who hates the programmer of this faceshooter addon, which works very well but in a wiered style)

[Xiozakacav]

spudstar99 would you mind looking at the code of SpellPriority? I'm trying to do as you say but it just gives me lua errors.

edit: http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-a...lpriority.aspx
The addon im talking about.

[spudstar99]

@ Xiozakacav

look in SpellPriority_core.lua for

SpellPriority_Texture:SetTexture(select(3,GetSpellInfo(5)))
log("set spell to: NO SPELLID RETURNED FROM TACTICFILE! set to skull icon")
else
local name, rank, icon = GetSpellInfo(spDB.best_spell)
SpellPriority_Texture:SetTexture(icon)

add line (dmgdmg = name) like

SpellPriority_Texture:SetTexture(select(3,GetSpellInfo(5)))
log("set spell to: NO SPELLID RETURNED FROM TACTICFILE! set to skull icon")
else
local name, rank, icon = GetSpellInfo(spDB.best_spell)
dmgdmg = name
SpellPriority_Texture:SetTexture(icon)

macro

/Run temp=dmgdmg
/Run CastSpellByName(""..temp.."")
