CH macro would be pretty simple, only need to have an event for the person you're going after and have is press cheal button then. Not sure if this would work, give it a go though.

Code: Select all

#event CHealNow "CharacterName up now!" || Change this to what person before you has as message when its your turn

#turbo

Sub Main

      :Loop
      /doevents
      /goto :Loop

/endmacro

Sub_CHealNow

      /press 1 || Replace this with what hotkey number cheal key is
      /doevents flush

/return
Has nothing in it for when someone dies/ld so dont do it afk.

what about setting a delay in there to pause for X seconds before casting and then macroing a message for the next person to go?

[color=cyan]   /delay 6s
   /ooc CharacterName up now![/color]
/return
Now, was that really too hard to figure out on your own? Since it was, I better say it...
"Be sure to adjust the /delay to what you want...also the channel to use for the announce and of course CharacterName."

Playing a cleric as my main I have thought about making a ch cycle macro but my conclusion is that it's too hard to make one that's reliable. There are too many factors that need to be adjusted.. Stuff like needing to be able to skip if someone ahead of you dies. You often have to move to keep the mt in range or stay out of an ae, or you have to adjust the speed. You also need a fast way to enter some unique string that the 2 or 3 people in front of you have in their hotkeys that you can trigger off.

Because of these difficulties, Xegony is probably the only mob I would consider using a ch chain macro for, cause that is one boring fight to heal.. :)

/ooc CharacterName up now!
/return
if your going to put the delay in the macro, instead of in the hotkey that you push, then you might as well put the casting routine into the macro as well, so it can compensate for fizzles, and call ooms so they know to skip you, it could also /tell you favorite raiding necro to twich you.. .but then again its just not a good idea to macro somthing like a heal chain :\
ACK! I think I blew it up....

I dont think your allowed to talk about this outside of a "free speech zone" anymore.

wish i new what it all ment lolz, thx all. im realy new to MQ... so where would i put these codes?~

its only good use is xegony. like for xegony the pause is like 1 second. tank almost never dies... what would the code be to be able to target the next tank? also for xegony u constantly ask for mana dumps and mage rods. hehe how would that be handled...

It would be handled by either a) learning to read and understand the macro language so you would at least have an inkling of where and how to use the info you are requesting; or b) sitting at your keyboard and playing your character.
