Melee help slam always reports -2

[di28889]

I would like to know if anyone know why slam always reports -2
i did

Code: Select all

/echo $char(ability,SLAM)

it reports -2 if the ability is in use or not, the only way i can think to get it to work is the use KICK because it is in use if slam is in use

Code: Select all

| - melee.mac -
| does auto taunt, disarm, and slam when attack is on!

Sub Main
:melee
/delay 5
|i put in delay becuase it seems to use less prosesor use
/if $combat==false /goto :Melee
/if $char(ability,TAUNT)>0  /doability TAUNT
/if $char(ability,DISARM)>0  /doability DISARM
/if $char(ability,KICK)>0  /doability SLAM
/goto :Melee
/return

I noticed something like this, but did not actually look into it. My war pet script uses a /doability slam THEN does a /doability kick, so in theory most of the time slam should go off, but in reality it only kicks.

Hrm try this, press ALT+M (unless you got your abilities window already open) and go to your combat tab. (where you first get your "Attack" and "Ranged" combat buttons). Right click one of the tabs then put SLAM on it.

Now go to the regular abilities tab and remove any instance of SLAM. /echo $char(ability,SLAM) and see if it returns -2.

I doubt this is the fix to making it not go -2, but I'm still curious if it'll stay -2 (May just go make a lvl 1 troll war to check this)

I believe this is a problem with EQ itself, not a bug in macroquest. If you go to your inventory, and click on "Skills", you will not see "Slam" in you list of skill levels... And if YOU can't find it, I doubt MQ could either. But for anyone who wants to experiment with it, the proper changes would be in skills.h in the eqlib directory...

skills.h

Code: Select all

	"Slam",					   // 111

I believe 111 to be the proper slot for it, though.
