AutoMacro discussion

[gosp]

While I won't go into the juicy details of being enabled to do this (the post was deleted a bit ago), using secure functions in macros is an amazing benefit.

For example, the macro I use most frequently...
If the unit is casting something, interrupts the cast, otherwise saves the cooldown

/if UnitCastingInfo("target") or UnitChannelInfo("target")
  /stopcasting
  /cast Earth Shock(Rank 1)
/end

I would then expand this to cast max rank Earth Shock if it would kill them,

/if UnitCastingInfo("target") or UnitChannelInfo("target")
  /stopcasting
  /if UnitHealth("Target")<1000
    /cast Earth Shock
  /else
    /cast Earth Shock(Rank 1)
  /end
/end

For the mages out there raiding sunwell, this macro will steal Grand Warlock Alythess' Firedamage buff.
Then it checks if the target has 3 stacks of the scorch debuff
If it doesn't, you cast scorch, if it does, you cast fireball

/if unitHasSpellEFfect("target", 45230)
  /cast Spellsteal
/end
/script local l=0; for i=1,40 do local n,_,_,_,_,_,t=UnitDebuff("target",i);if n=="Fire Vulnerability" and t then l=t;end;end
/if l < 3
  /cast Scorch
/end
/cast Fireball

And here's your warlock bot. It's mostly readable. /ifaddtb means if the unit doesn't have the debuff or less than one second of it remaining.

/ifaddtb Unstable Affliction 
   /cast Unstable Affliction 
/end 
/ifaddtb Siphon Life 
   /cast Siphon Life 
/end 
/ifaddtb Curse of Agony 
   /cast Curse of Agony 
/end 
/ifaddtb Corruption 
   /cast Corruption 
/end 
/if UnitHealth("player")<80% 
   /cast Drain Life 
   /elseif UnitHealth("player")>80% 
   /cast Shadowbolt 
/end
/if UnitMana("player")<25% 
   /if UnitHealth("player")>80% 
      /cast Life Tap 
   /end 
/end 
/if UnitMana("player")<25% 
   /if UnitHealth("player")<80% 
      /cast Dark Pact 
   /end 
/end

Be warned, there is a 256 char limit on macros.

is there a website for these, or somewhere that has more? they are extremely useful.

[gosp]

Any sites I could find were in Chinese, so I was hoping to gather many minds of the english speaking world to create them ourself. In particular, there was a healbot macro and an autodispel bot macro that I had seen, but personally was unable to get it to work.

Could anyone post the link again? Dunno why the threads gets deleted..

The thread was deleted because it was apparently not an exploit

>> Download here <<

i hadn't reposted it beause some people weren't happy about it being in the public sections, but meh, its gone this long unpatched so who cares

/script InitAutoHeal(70,"Flash Heal") 
/click AutoHealMacroButton 
/ifheal 
/cast Flash Heal 
/end

For this, the command /click AutoHealMacroButton confuses me. Is this an actual command, or do I have to add in the real button name to click, otherwise do I have to name my macro AutoHeal or something?

[drastickog]

Any more information on the syntax of all this ?

Thanks

You don't have to add any buttons.
AutoHealMacroButton is a hidden button made by the addon.

hummm, is there anyway to make a macro, that would automatically cast spells, like for warlock:
corruption>curse of agony>life tap> drain life>shoot

i have one, but there u need to wait till global cooldown, and my corruption and agony is instant, that causes macro to crash

Hey, been messing with this ever since you posted it in exploits and here's a few of mine:

/ifaddtb Demoralizing Shout
/cast Demoralizing Shout
/end
/castrandom Shield Block, Thunder Clap, Cleave

Use for Multi-tanking.

/ifaddtb Demoralizing Shout
/cast Demoralizing Shout
/end
/ifaddtb Thunder Clap
/cast Thunder Clap
/end
/castrandom Hamstring

Weapon leveling in Blasted Lands keeps your damage taken at a minimum while spamming Hamstring.

One thing I wanted to ask, what was the command to use an ability only if it was usable? I think it was /ifusable (ability) or something like that.

Also, is there a command to check for certain buffs on yourself? Thanks in advance.

[drastickog]

Is there any way to return false if the skill you want to use is on cooldown?

Not quite what you asked for, but here's the command to run part of a macro only if the spell isn't on cooldown. I think it might also check spell range, but that's a guess.

/ifcast NameOfSpell
...
/end

I'm having a hard time figuring out how to get this working, since the instructions are in chinese. I did the logical thing and put it's folder in my WoW/interface/addons folder. It shows up in my list of addons in game on the character select screen, but from that point on I don't know how to activate it in-game. Is there a special / command to bring up a window to type the code into? I tried typing the code into the standard macro window, but it didn't work.

Thanks.

[Missaar]

Same problem cant get it to work.. In fact, normal macros stopped working aswell.
