Some macros even have comments throughout telling you what each function is doing.

Ok I know that I probably said the wrong thing when i said I didn't have time...I just was having a stressful night last night because I had a big exam. I appreciate the tips and I have been reading through the different codes just wasnt sure If there was a little tutorial or not because with my luck I would spend hours learning something and then later find out there was a quicker way lol...Thanks

I'm sure I'm not the only one who has spent hours learning.

Hell, I'm still learning. That's the fun part :wink:

The best way for you to learn is this...

1. Goto the old macro depot.
2. Select a script that you want to use.
3. Convert it to the new MQDataVars. (You will not have to know programming logic for this, but it will help you with learning SYNTAX)
4. Test the shit out of it and ask questions once you get stuck.

I have done this with two scripts, Hunter and HerosBrew and I feel that I got a good understanding on how to program scripts for this fucking AWESOME app that if it didn't exist I would NOT be playing EQ.

Granted I have been programming for many years, but hell I haven't been flammed by Preocts or Oid yet so I think that I am doing good on the Macro front. :)
