quick question

Post by macrolover » Thu Aug 01, 2002 3:12 am

is there a way to make a macro that buys supplies in one zone. then zones to another to buy deferent supplies. for example npc in zone 1 sells batwings npc in zone two sells fresh fish. what i want to do is program a macro that buys the batwings zones buy's fish then combines.then goes back to batwings vendor and starts again. is this possible and how would i go about doing it.don't want a full macro unless you have one already made that does this if so pm me with it. Any help or examples will be appreciated.

Yes, it can be done, you'd just have to tell it to run to specific waypoints till it gets near the zone, then have it walk to a location past the zone line. Then, you'd have to tell it to load up new waypoints, etc. once it finishes zoning.

Am I going to write you the code to do this? No, because this would be a good learning experience for you to do on your own, and I have no desire to write public code which could be abused.

hmm... how about Event zone "You have entered"

Or you can have it load different waypoints depending on what the $zone variable returns.

or you could, if $zone=="zonenamehere" then delay and loop till you are in the zone. GL
