Feature or bug?

Post by arantius2 » Tue Sep 03, 2002 7:34 pm

I had used the TAB key as a way for me to end my macro, I.E. when target == self, stop. But with the /face commands in my loops, I found out that when you /face while yourself is targeted it is a "true north" effect, always turns to face north. Is this intented? If so I dun like it can I turn it off?

And as a side note, I've been finishing up my macro that farms all the components needed to make leather padding. I've got good tree unstickin' code, and decent anti-ks code and I'm overall proud. But, is this the sort of thing that I should give away, by which I mean what are the rules, what should I just suddenly let people do like that, if they can't on their own ?

We like people to share their macros. I do, a lot of others do. If its something that can be exploited, as if for cash or something, shut the hell up. but if its an in game one, drop it in macro depot.. good way to get enhancements made to it, peer advice and just get a warm feeling in your tummy

Actually I was wrong.... If you have nothing targeted you get syntax info however the targeted self thing works

i see no reason why this macro couldnt be posted - weve had similar macros posted already that do the things you have commented on - albeit maybe not so well, or dont offer all the functions in one macro.

I see no reason not to post improved seek and destroy and loot macros.

Any that rely upon an in game exploit, dont post it pls for obvious reasons.
