The old way of comparing strings does not work. So, how would one rewrite this using MQ2Data?
Code: Select all
/newif (${Me.Buff[1]}=="Seduction of Saryrn") {
/click left 995 130
}
Basicly I am checking for lich in buffslot 1 and clicking it off....
The post by Lax in announcements seem to say that :
Code: Select all
/newif (${Me.Buff[1].Equal[Seduction of Saryrn]}) {
/click left 995 130
}
Is what I am looking for. But this dosnt work.
Any ideas?

Well. Reading the posts Lax worked so hard on in the announcement forums:
Lax wrote:
character
...buff Buff[slot]: The buff in this slot (1-15)
...buff Buff[name]: Finds buff with this name
buff
...int ID: Spell ID
...int Level: Level
...spell Spell: Spell
...float Mod: Bard song modifier
...ticks Duration: Duration
- To String: Same as Spell.Name
If Buff[name] is of type
buff that means we can do Buff[name].ID which returns an int. Ints work in numarical comparisons so I guess we could just do this:
Code: Select all
/if (${Me.Buff["Seduction of Saryrn"].ID}) /click whatever
btw, you might also want to read the changes.txt and look for information concerning /click

Ok.. figured this out...
Returns the name of the buff in slot one.
Does the same damn thing
So
Code: Select all
${Me.Buff[1].Name.Equal[Seduction of Sayrn]}
Is what I am looking for.

Code: Select all
/if (${Me.Buff["Seduction of Saryrn"].ID}) /click whatever
How would that identify the buff in slot 1?

We're cross posting and hopefully you read my edited-non-bitch post not the first one
will give you the same results as
Since if that buff is there ID will not equal 0 or NULL and the if statement will be TRUE. If the buff isn't there ID will equal 0 or NULL making the if statement FALSE. This is the beauty of the new system.
Edit Yet again: Okay, I see your reason for the string compare. The spell TLO doesn't have a .slot member which I, for some reason, thought it did.
