PQR - Rotation Bot

[kuukuu]

Are there such profiles like these, I would really like that.

Most of our profiles use IsSpellKnown so they automatically work as you gain new skills, basically leveling as you level. I think GRB was being sarcastic....

I see how much fun ya'll are having making profiles and setting challenges to create profiles, I'm new to the whole coding world and would love to make a profile of my own and possibly share it with others. So, first is there some kind of write up on how to use the PQR program. First I open up the program and get the screen for rotation editor and abilities editor which do i go to first? then from there what should I do? Those eliteses thinking coders can laugh and call me names; if ya like, but recall at one point or another you where in the same boat as I am. I appreciate any help anyone can be to my learning skills.

as soon as i popped out of my mother, UnitIsDeadorGhost("failroad") returned nil, and the rest was history.

@NicodemusAtNIMH: A good place to start is familiarize yourself with the Lua coding language over at: The Programming Language Lua
Furthermore you can get a lot of tips and tricks, from Home Page - World of Warcraft Programming: A Guide and Reference for Creating WoW Addons

Is there a possibility to make /click ExtraActionButton1 execute only once? Problem is, spell has a casting time of 1.7-1.8 secs and makes a debuff on a unit. so while spell is travelling in air pqr makes another check and decides since unit doesn't have debuff yet that it needs to be casted once more.

Edit: Found, solved...

is anyone else having troubles with unitchannelinfo not returning anything until the channel is actually completed?

stilll having probs with this function

[nilrem2004]

link code with problem please, or describe.

[discobob]

it used to return info as unitcastinginfo does, constantly updating as you are casting/channeling. now it only seems to return something AFTER thechannel is completed as opposed to while channeling.

In the ability options, set Cancel Channel to True

from what i've seen on wowped ia the unitchannelinginfo api is no longer used, but thats the only place that seems to keep updated apis now that i've found.

wowprogramming.com is behind on telling usage and wowwiki.com is about the same.

@Any of the coders

I want to make a quick ability that will cast the Druid ability Mighty Bash (Spell ID 5211) only if the stun from Pounce (spell=102546) isn't present. Having a hard time figuring out how to do this though, and I can't seem to make it work.

Alternatively, it'd be amazing if I could make a simple ability code that works if RightShiftKey is pressed. I tried to edit an old Shockwave ability, but it's giving LUA errors. Is there a simple way I could do either of them? The easiest I would think would be the code with the RightShift modifier. Hoping someone can help me out .

if IsRightShiftKeyDown() then
if not UnitDebuffID("target", 102546) then
CastSpellByName("GetSpellInfo(5211), "target")
return true
end
end

I'm not home ATM but I believe the stun is the same debuff I could be wrong. But also you can do a debuff check for pounce and if its not there and check for not in stealth then cast bash. Can't write cuz I'm not home but should get on the path

Hi guys .. how can I cast a spell that I need, without stopping the bot ?
Lets say the bot is happy doing the normal rotation and I want to cast a spell on myself or another player, what I normally do is pause the rotation cast what I need and restart the rotation , only problem with this is that sometimes it will cancel the spell that I just put out. Best example I can give here is when one is trying to cast the fire elemental, and after is done the rotation will cancel the elemental and put out searing totem again.
Another way I have done it is to keep pressing on the button with the action that I need and hope that it will cast, which sometimes works for instant casts, but if is a channeled spell I find it better to stop the rotation alltogether.
I am completely ignorant when it comes to coding, and I am quite happy to carry on doing it this way but I want to know if there is a better or different way to do it.
Thanks for your help
