Updated:

It will now store items with the same name but with different item ID's. lucid shard's are an example.

Forgot to remove an /echo that I was using to debug. :)

Sweeeet.. Thank you for filling my request.

I've noticed that with /tell ssearch keyword. That the bot returns only 1 link.. Any way to make it return them all?

I intentionally restricted it to one link. Think about this. If someone was monitoring your tells would someone really send like 6 links all in alphabetical order? Its just a bit of protection.

Ahh ok cool. I was thinking that the ssearch would be bad enough though lol... I was thinking about asking to have ssearch removed when using the tells...

Well the problem is I'd have no way to know what it is you wanted to do if you got a tell from the master. They might just be sending you a tell to ask you what you are doing tonight. Then you'd reply back with links that were similar to "Hey what are you doing on?" hehe. Certainly we could make the "ssearch" a bit more ambiguous. Maybe like "Hey can you link me " or something like that.

Very true. I was thinking of having the option to setup your own trigger... Such as that which you mentioned.

On the thing about returning only 1 thing.. I really would like to know how to make it return say 3 or 4 or even 10. your macro is massive and I am having trouble figuring out what to change to make it return more than 1 link.

Also. I am getting some errors on line 825... I'm gonna catch a log of it tonight and post it for ya.

Using v1.15 and I can't get the /tell to work...or any other for that matter

I.e.
/echo ssearch zha
... will result in Zha's being send to the channel written in the macro

/echo ssearch zha /tell johndoe
... the search now results in [0] records... Have I missed anything?

The storing of links and all that still works... just not the /tell, /gu, /chat #channelname and those things...

Not sure what to tell you right offhand. I just logged on and tried it and it works. I'll take a better look at it and let you know if I find anything.

I just tested with Zaharn's Coronet to verify it wasn't a problem with items in the Z INI file and it seems to work fine as well. Are you sure you didn't typo your name in the ssearch or something?

Is anyone else having this problem with the latest version posted?

Updated:
You can now change the remote search phrase by changing this portion of the code:

Code: Select all

| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| This is the command that you would need to precede a remote search from a master to do a search.  
| Change it to your unique word or phrase. (Do not end this with a space.)
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/varset RemotePhrase "Link me your"

You can also now change the maximum number of search results that get spit out when doing a search that is being sent via ssearch by changing this: (I wouldn't suggest going over 6.)

Code: Select all

| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Change this to the maximum number of search results that will be sent to your master.
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/varset RemoteSearchCount 3

No need to... I'm the noob here

I was updating the autolink in the wrong running version of MQ, so I was still using an old autolink... My apologies...

Good heh. I was looking at the code and scratching my head trying to figure out why it was behaving like that for you. That makes sense.

Off topic ...

You can change the macroquest.ini to point to a shared network drive for the macros. Then you will only need to edit one place for all your MQ2 machines.

MacroPath=M:\MQ2\macros\
(above is example)

Using UltraEdit32 you can even have it save backup copys when you make changes so you can test macros easier...
