Targetting Question

[gillgian]

Would this work:

The 'master' calls assist me in channel

Event triggered for an assist

Code: Select all

Sub Event_Assist 
  /assist @MasterName 
  /delay 2s 
  /face 
  /pet attack
  /varset MainTarget $target(id)
  :CombatBegin 
 
  /call lifetapmob
  /call DotMob				  
  /call MaintainBuffs
  /call MaintainPetHealth	  
  
  /target id  @MainTarget
  /if $target(type)==NULL /call ResetEvents
   
  /goto :CombatLoop 
/return 

Is the a correct way to save a target and then retarget the same mob?

[MrSmallie]

Code: Select all

/varset MainTarget $target(id)
......
/target @MainTarget
..........
/if n $target(id)!=@MainTarget /call ResetEvents

[Gumby]

Code: Select all

/varset MainTarget $target(id)
......
/target @MainTarget
..........
/if n $target(id)!=@MainTarget /call ResetEvents

Grin, posted it right initially:

Code: Select all

/target id @MainTarget

One tidbit about this code, you're going to be hangnig out in the event queue and will be able to take no other actions from it; recommend doing the assist as a event and your combat loop still under Main or another sub, and have /doevents still in the loop for various other things.

Also if using $target(id)!=@MasterTarget, if the script winds up on a corpse it's going to keep executing through the code. Haven't found a way to reliably check circumstances with a single comparison anyway =/.

Code: Select all

/if $target()==FALSE
/if $target(state)==DEAD
/if $target(type)!=NPC
...

Etc. Still need the reliable pet check which I never finished Maybe could do it in two comparisons with the !=@MasterTarget and target(state)==DEAD.
