HOW-TO: Chain 2+ Spells in a Single Macro
Found this while browsing the official UI & Macro forum: http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/th...p=1#post241109 For the firewall impaired: Despite the popular (and usually correct) notion that you can only cast a single spell or use a single item per button press, it is possible to do so. However, what spells you can...

Re: HOW-TO: Chain 2+ Spells in a Single Macro
It means you won't be able to use "/script stopspellcasting();" to chain the spells together. |

Re: HOW-TO: Chain 2+ Spells in a Single Macro
I haven't been able to try it out yet -- hopefully later today. But the function says it now requires INPUT to work. Perhaps we will not be able to do: /cast Amplify Curse /script SpellStopCasting(); /Cast Curse of Exaustion But instead do: /cast Amplify Curse /script SpellStopCasting(Amplify Curse); /Cast Curse of Exaustion ? Have to wait and see later today.

Re: HOW-TO: Chain 2+ Spells in a Single Macro
It's why I hate patch notes - they are always too vague. When I read it, I took input to refer to user input (like the changes to pet action a few patches ago). I guess we'll know soon enough. |

Re: HOW-TO: Chain 2+ Spells in a Single Macro
I just tried this in 1.10.2. /script SpellStopCasting(); without any parameter still works. Tried the spell name as a parameter and got the dreaded LUA error box. |

Re: HOW-TO: Chain 2+ Spells in a Single Macro
Before, you could use SpellStopCasting to automatically abort your spells without having to use input (for example, mana conserving heals if someone else healed the target before your spell landed and so on). It means very little with regards to macros, as all spell casting macros already requires you to have a keypress. Note that keypresses are not "used up" by doing something that requires them - if, for instance, logging out, reloading your interface, casting a spell and stopping a spell cast all requires a keypress, they can all be done in the same macro (As far as I know).

Re: HOW-TO: Chain 2+ Spells in a Single Macro
Well guys here goes what i know, first im just apologizing for not reading all the post koz i didnt had enought time
What i know is that over Cosmos UI <A HREF="http://www.cosmosui.org/" link="-=!!Get Cosmos Here!!=-"></a> you can do something like this /cast Immolate(Rank 3); /in 2.5; /cast Shadow Bolt(Rank 3); sorry for the grammar and stuff but is basically this you cast Immolate, than after 2.5 seconds it will cast Shadow Bolt. Im not 100% sure about the grammar and sutff like the ; but still a good thing to use. I just figure that the problem is that if your pc lags for a while the time will pass-by and your spell wont cast. Hope my post was usefull Yours, Luis |

Can anyone else verify that the above post is true? This is the first I ever heard about a time-delay command being available in the scripts. |
