hi, it is possible to upgrade the present kite with levi (singing steel boot) and with /lock function (as requested before). it's better to run around statics point than running around the mobs. It is a great macro, but it's more suitable to run around the flat ground.

Ok when i set up this script do i have to edit anything here:
/echo usage: chant.mac <DOTs, LVL6 Selos> <49selo> <radius> [<heal song>]
/return

Or if my spell gems are set up correctly do i not have to edit anything and just setup/run like this:
Usage Examples:
| -Scenario 1: If you are using...
| ...DOTs in Gems 4, 5, 6, and 7
| ...Level 49 Selo in Gem 2
| ...Radius of 55
| ...Hymn of Restoration in Gem 1
| ...If you wanted the script to start paused
| syntax: /mac chant 4567 2 55 1 1

I tried to ask the question as best as i could i hope i was detaild enough for yout to understand.

**EDIT** A coupel of things , if this seems like a stupid question let me explain.I usaly just use macro quest for tracking/foraging , also i like the built in anti cpu hog feature.

Notice the line I highlighted. That's the one you would use if you had the same setup described above it.

Mac runs great i love it ,however i have 1 problem.The circels he runs are all well and good but i have a problem with my toon running all over the zone.Like the circels pan out i would like him to stay in the genral area i start the mac.

Is it bad to quote yourself? This will be the last time I mention this if you cant figure out how to kite around a static loc then dont run this damn macro you will get everyone in trouble if you use this and dont know what the hell you are doing.

   } 
/return

Note: this isn't a great fix but does the trick for me. It will kite around the loc you start the mac at..... if you want to be able to pass a loc to it you would have to add more code and I don't feel like doing it.

phazor · Post by **phazor** » Tue May 11, 2004 2:12 pm

Code: Select all

#event NeedTarget "#*#You must first select a target for this spell!#*#"
#event Exp        "#*#You gain #*#"
#event Died       "#*#You have entered#*#"
#event Caster     "#*# begins to cast a spell.#*#"
#event Tell       "#*#tells you#*#"

fixed events.. very roughly... might want to add a tell log or something like:

Code: Select all

#event Tell      "#1#tells you #2#"

where 1 is the persons name and 2 is the message. (too lazy to write the rest, in middle of makign another macro)

thats a rubber anchor ... he wants a static anchor. i.e. NO movement.

Hi Jackass... know how macros work? I didn't think so. Know how to read macro code? Didn't think so..... take your dumbass comments somewhere else if you dont want to read the fucking god damn code... asshole....

This WILL kite around YOUR rubber anchor WHICH is SET WHEN YOU RUN THE FUCKING MACRO

example:

go to the loc you want to kite around and run the god damn fucking macro asshole!

remove head from ass

jump off a very tall building

die.

Thanks,

kasodo

No he answerd right , the problem was this.I would start macro it would run and target a mob and start kitting it near to were he targets mob.When the mob was dead it would run off and target mob and start kiting there.It seems this fix will keep him in the genral area i start in right??

GuardianX99 · Post by **GuardianX99** » Tue May 11, 2004 6:46 pm

GOD DAMN Can we fucking get rid of the bard macro's OBVIOUSLY morons are trying to run them.

Kasodo, don't fight them, they are morons, they will drag you to their level and beat you with experience. If people want to whine and bitch about macro's LET EM. They ride on your shoulders.

Okay, for the rest of you non-commiting pricks, how about this. try posting IDEAS on how to ijmplement your idea instead of saying "IT DOESN'T WORK Waaaaahhhhh FIX FIX FIX IT!!!! WAAAHHHHH"

Fuck bard chant kite macro's there are plugins that work way better and they don't have to but updated every patch or every time they update macroquest.

Yeah, CTD is way better.

A plugin is the *wrong* way to do chant kiting.

GuardianX99 · Post by **GuardianX99** » Wed May 12, 2004 2:35 am

I dunno about that. Personaly I have had alot less problems in general with the plugins than I have with the actual macro's.

Circles are more steady and the twisting can be changed on the fly. Try using them DKAA. I was skeptical at first as well. Then I tried them and found that they kicked ass.

Only thing you need to run macrowise would be a targeting macro based on location.

wilso132 · Post by **wilso132** » Wed May 12, 2004 1:39 pm

I like running the static circle version of this macro, but it has a few problems with acquiring new targets and bringing them in to kite. Does anyone else already have a modified version that uses the static circle but will still pull mobs back to the circle?

If not, expect one to be posted soon :) .

grayfox107 · Post by **grayfox107** » Thu May 13, 2004 12:46 am

I know this is just an idea but would it be possible for me to make the macro run so after some time of getting the monsters together (running in the circle) i would then begin to go in a square pattern to use my AE songs rather than dotting one creature at a time. And then go back into the circle pattern after some time to have the adds come closer together and then back yet once more.

Hi Jackass... know how macros work? I didn't think so. Know how to read macro code? Didn't think so..... take your dumbass comments somewhere else if you dont want to read the fucking god damn code... asshole....

Kasodo: Yes I do, I write my own thanks.
Let me ask you a question: DO you know how to read before you respond? No ? .. Didn't think so.

P R E P A R E to be PPPPWWWNNNNEEEEDDDD

Here is what I said:

thats a rubber anchor ... he wants a static anchor. i.e. NO movement.

and here is what you just replied:

This WILL kite around YOUR rubber anchor WHICH is SET WHEN YOU RUN THE FUCKING MACRO

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Like I said. that is a RUBBER anchor. and he wants a static anchor.
I.e. absolutly no movement in the circle. with rubber youi DRIFT.

You , need to go read a dictionary, leave the coding to me. k.

Ok, so i guess that doesn't realy PWN you too bad, but your still not very smart. IMHO.

...anyway, if u want it static
take this part

Code: Select all

Sub Circ 
   /declare CirX local 
   /declare CirY local 

   /call CheckObst 

   /if (${Target.ID}) { 
      /varset CirX ${Target.Y} 
      /varset CirY ${Target.X} 
   } else { 

        /if (${TargetUpNext}!=0) { 

            /varset CirX ${Spawn[ID ${TargetUpNext}].Y} 
            /varset CirY ${Spawn[ID ${TargetUpNext}].X}

change it to

Code: Select all

Sub Circ 
   /declare CirX local 
   /declare CirY local 

   /call CheckObst 

   
      /varset CirX ${LOCY} 
      /varset CirY ${LOCX}

and pass LOCy and LOCX in the main function when u call it.

in fact u can just set them global outside the circ function if you like.

Re: Static Kite Change

Hi Moron

just an idea but i think it could work
