Re: Macro causing performance issues

The strange thing is, the macro seems to run quickly enough. I don't notice a drop in responsiveness, the issue is actually EQ itself slowing down. It's very similar to an overtaxed video card. Frames get slightly choppy and it's difficult to move with precision. I suppose the macro slows down in re...

Re: Macro causing performance issues

I haven't had a chance to do a lot of testing, but I have been using the idea of capturing "time hacks", as dewey put it, to check iteration speed of the macro when running different configurations. I only had a few minutes to play around with things, but I'll try to collect some actual da...

Re: Macro causing performance issues

The macro has a few dozen events, most of which are macro commands set up through /bc, not triggered by the game. Since /bc is not a chat channel event Chat doesn't pick them up, and is why I have so many events. Demonstar is mostly just talking out of his butt =P

Re: Macro causing performance issues

I do have several events, but the vast majority are triggered by the user, rather than the game. Only things I can think of that the game would trigger would be loot, death, zone, enrage, and a few various NPC or raid triggers. I could see them possibly causing slight spikes of lag, but this is more...

Re: Macro causing performance issues

First off, thanks for the reply, Dewey. Had a couple follow up questions, I've looked through the macro, checking for Ini statements, triggers, etc, but I'm not seeing much that would lead to such a drastic impact as what I believe I'm seeing. All my ${Ini[...]} statements are either called during s...

Macro causing performance issues

I have a macro that I have been writing for years now. There have been numerous revisions and addition etc over the years, and the macro has grown to several thousand lines (I'd guess between 10-20k). Because of the size and number of functions of the macro, I have it broken into several includes, a...

Looking for a command to take item out of bank.

Hey all. I'm attempting to write a script that will withdraw item from a character's bank. I've got everything running smoothly, but I'm having a hell of a time finding a command to take an item out of a backpack that is stored in the bank. I'm using /itemnotify bank# rightmouseup to open bags, and ...
