Auto designating Raid Looters by name

Post by weefa » Thu Aug 26, 2004 12:36 pm

I'm trying to come up with a way to automatically set certain people (officers) as looters on raids with the click of a button. One can get so damned close using simple EQ commands such as /setloottype and /addraidlooter. But alas, you cannot /addraidlooter name. The person actually has to be highlighted in the Raid Window before it takes effect. I've looked and searched and played with every related command I can find and I cannot find any way of highlighting a person by name in the raid window short of physically clicking on them.

I can highlight by # in the list but I need to be able to do it by name instead since officers would be in a different slot every raid. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Not sure if this would work, but as a first idea you could try iterating through the raid members and check if they are officers, then add them as looters. the member TLO has a GuildStatus member, if it' contains the right data, you are good to go.
