New User To Macroquest

[FUBAR]

I am having problems running my first macro from this site, it is a brewing macro witch i have pasted below. I have the macro pasted in the right folder, when i try to run it i type /macro brewing obviously this isnt enough to make it work, if u could please tell me the correct wording to type and how it is possible to vary speeds on your macros, and i am also using the new interface if that makes any diff at all. Tx for ur time and patience with me.

From what I understand, MQ doesn't support clicky with NewUI...so you'd have to go back to old-skool UI to run your tradeskill macro.

Also, to usually figure out where something is crashing(when you don't have a useful debugger), you can just put /echo statements in the code to figure out where it's going. For example:

Code: Select all

:Done 
/sendkey up ctrl 

/click left enviro done 
/echo Exiting Brewing.mac
/return

At least then you'd have a rough idea where it was going. Usually you'd try to put them around statements you think might be problematic or which you dont think are executing(inside IF statements, FOR loops, etc.)

You could also set DebugSpewToFile=1 in MacroQuest.ini file. This will provide you with endless amounts of debug text from the macro engine (in a file in your Logs directory).
