Spell casting help

Post by caewen » Wed Jan 15, 2003 9:18 am

I was wondering if there was a way to monitor the spell casting bar, and when it gets to a certain percent (5%) execute another task? I want to write something that helps with chain casting pets. Right now I am having mq cast the spell, delay then send command for pet get lost.

Chain Casting Pets

Post by AarynD » Wed Jan 15, 2003 10:17 am

When I was chain casting pets back in the day, I found the easiest way was to just program your normal eq hotkey correctly...

/cast 1 (pet spell)
/cast 1
/cast 1 (repeat in case of fizzle)
/delay 35 (adjust according to spell cast time)
/pet get lost

There might be a way to do what you're looking for in MQ, but I don't recall seeing any vars that indicate percentage complete on a spell cast.
