3djoker · Post by **3djoker** » Fri Jul 02, 2004 8:00 pm

just curious if there is a way to have a lvl 57 mage cast the long duration invis every 9-10 minutes?

im not going to pretend i know the first thing bout coding, becuase i don't. i'm just looking for something to cast invis every 10 minutes to refresh it while i wait for a spawn, so i don't need to do it. or when im 2 boxing, so i can just sit the mage in for some exp.

thanx a ton in advance......

*flame my ass= on*

Code: Select all

#include spellcast.inc 

#event attacked "#*#hits you#*#" 
#event tell "#*#tells you#*#" 
#event tell "#*#told you#*#" 

Sub Main 

   :loop 
   /doevents 
   /if (${Me.Buff[Gather Shadows].Duration}<3) { 
     /call cast "Gather Shadows" 
   } 
   /goto :loop 
/return 

Sub Event_tell 
  /beep
/return 


Sub Event_attacked 
   /beep 
   /beep 
   /pause 3 
   /beep 
   /beep 
/return

usage would be /mac invis

actually for mage it would be...

Code: Select all

#include spellcast.inc 

#event appear "#*#You appear#*#" 
#event attacked "#*#hits you#*#" 
#event tell "#*#tells you#*#" 
#event tell "#*#told you#*#" 

Sub Main 

   :loop 
   /doevents 
   /if (!${Me.Buff["Veil of Elements"]}) { 
     /call cast "Veil of Elements" 
   } 
   /goto :loop 
/return 

Sub Event_tell 
   /tell ${Param0} got a tell 
/return 

Sub Event_appear 
   /tell ${Param0} appeared, recasting 
   /beep 
/return 

Sub Event_attacked 
   /tell ${Param0} Im being attacked help! 
   /beep 
   /beep 
   /pause 3 
   /beep 
   /beep 
/return

but did try it, got some error though....

i started it with no invis. it casted invis like it should but right after invis was cast, i got this error......

Code: Select all

Failed to parse /if condition '(veil of elements)', non-numeric encountered

invis.mac@12 (main):if (!${Me.Buff["Improved Invisibility"]}) {
the current macro has ended

iny idea what happened?

edited for use w/ necro or sk, change spell names, and i couldnt get tells working for some reason but at least the beeps work!! =) will re invis when tehre are 12 seconds left on spell, (when its flashing)

good enough right?

editted out some of the events, no need for them

Tells don't work because Param0 doesn't exist in the subs, it's a parameter to the Main routine. You need to save it somewhere in another variable and use that.

works like a charm :)

now can i have permission to add a lil stuff to it to enhance it and give me some hands on at coding?

You can only edit your own posts unless you are an admin.

thats not what i meant.
i just wanted permission to use his base code and alter it for my own personal benefits.

Isn't posting your code here pretty much permission to use as you see fit?

Me.Buff returns a "buff" type object. The default type cast is string, Use ${Me.Buff["Improved Invisibility"].ID} instead.

while you could use ID as a boolean to see if its there or not, it would be better to use duration, like in the top post:

Code: Select all

/if (${Me.Buff[Gather Shadows].Duration}<3)

For a mage that would be:

Code: Select all

/if (${Me.Buff[veil of elements].Duration}<3)

This will allow you to re-invis just before invis fades, rather than after you become visable.

Note that .Duration is in 6-second tics.

That will bork when you don't have the buff on you though since you can't compare NULL to 3. Best way is to first test ID then Duration.[/code]
