New idea [Request Fulfilled]

[ivier]

I use both Macroquest and xylobot, Macroquest for scripting and command line enhancement, xylobot for it's map and web browser. the map function of xylobot requires updates from a log file to know what zone it is in, and the loc of the user (which must be called manually with /loc to update the map). i was thinking, Macroquest could have an option for putting this stuff in a seperate logfile and thus keeping the map updated much more frequently, keeping the loc info out of the chat window, and saving me from having to hit the loc hot button repeatedly. another problem with xylobot, is i have to select the log file manually, if i switch characters, having a single log file for xylobot to parse would solve this problem

Salutations,
If you can change the log file (i don't know, i don't use it) you can make a macro to output your loc to the .log files that MacroQuest out puts... ie:

Code: Select all

sub main
/varcalc p0 $p0*10
:loop
  /mqlog Your Location is $char(y), $char(x), $char(z)
  /delay $p0
/goto :loop
/return

This is a macro you can call in game with /macro <macroname> <seconds between /locs>
but the only problem I see with that, is that the date format for EQ and MQ are different...

just a quick question L124RD

/varcalc p0 $p0*10
/delay $p0


couldn't that be
/delay $p0s

??

Salutations,
I think you could... I prefer the *10 thing, I don't like seconds... decaseconds are fine...
