You can't. You cannot execute a macro from a Lua function.

Having said this, it is possible to execute some macro stuff from Lua, but some of the functionality is lost (no /wait, /cast, /use for example). and making it run an entire macro even with these limitations is annoying at best.

You are better off converting your macro to a full fledged Lua function. Then you'll have the best of both worlds.

anyone want to share their k/p script? I run as a heal Priest mostly and know that RoM has changed some knight skills abit my current script is ok but I'm not knowledge able about what skills in what order could be better, knight is lv74 1h sword/shield user, script will be for personal farming (not dungeon tanking) I won't need aggro increases, just dps and heal/def

I'm trying to make a simple buffing routine in diyce. One line seems to be messing everything up, and I can't figure out what i've done wrong. Any advice would be appreciated.



It's supposed to use whatever food i have in slot 25 if Juicy Battered Fish or Juicy Spare Ribs are not already on me or if they have 45 or fewer seconds left before they run out. Thanks!

its not even able to play, if I clock on the diyce makro it just changes the enemy^^ that who's it has to be anything IN the Script for warlock/champ

Don't know if someone answered this poor little guy, so i will.

Where is (Food) defined?

In your macro you should be declaring your foodslot as 25 I.e.:

Generally My macro looks something like this:

On your mind so it remind you

On your mind so it remind you

I just ate.

Hello,

Fast question: which is the last version of DIYCE.lua. Still the 2.4 version from page 1, or the version from curse 2.4.2 or it has been optimized here on forums to a new version ? Kinda hard to find this in over 68 pages of info....


thanks in advance.

Short answer...yes

You can grab it from page 1 or from curse (I'm pretty sure they are both 2.4.2), but, you will find many modifications in the 68 pages and the archives that you might like (depending on your classes)
Good Luck

Is there anyway someone could put together a "best of" with good scripts for all the classes? I would like to try out, k/m, k/war, k/p, m/k but searching through this huge thread is confusing. The scripts that come with the engine seem outdated.

If anyone could post some new good scripts for all the class combos it would be great.

go make them

Most of Us have "good" scripts. We got them by reading that massive amount of "good" info....then we tested it out and made them Our own.

Good Luck and happy reading.

P.S. I have most classes in My DIYCE. Feel free to pick My limited brain, if you need help writing your own.

Question 1:
What does "custom:" do in K/M diyce and in general?




Why not just ( name = "Holy Strike", Use = ...)


Question 2:
What diyce will do with "function: cancelbuff" in this particular example?

	PHP Source code
1	{ name = "Function: CancelBuff",    use = (pbuffs[501797]), params = {"Mana Shield"} },

	PHP Source code

Question 2:

	PHP Source code
1	{ name = "Function: CancelBuff",    use = (pbuffs[501797]), params = {"Mana Shield"} },

As far as I can remember "Custom" allows you to check GCD and use the shift key to bypass skills. (I could be wrong)

As for Holy Strike using Light Seals, the Knight has several skills that stack Light Seals or Holy Seals now.

I can only hazard a guess as to the CancelBuff. I took that piece of code out of My DIYCE. I would think it stops the HP drain caused by Mana Shield.

I hope I didn't muddy the waters too much.

"Custom: " calls the following function, where action = name of skill.



So Custom checks the cd of the skill. If the skill is ready for use, it then posts a message in default chat window with the name of the action being used only when the shift key is held down, then records what the skill name in the g_lastaction variable.

This is useful to prevent spamming the same skill repeatedly such as for holy light domain :


Here we see that it calls custom, so it will record "Holy Light Domain" in the g_lastaction variable when it is casts. If we come to that skill on the very next button press of Diyce, g_lastaction ~= "Holy Light Domain" will be false (~= is "not equal to") so it won't cast again.

If you want to use a Custom skill more then one time, you'll want to use at least 2 Custom: calls. If you only have 1 Custom: call, once the skill is activated the first time, g_lastaction will ALWAYS be the same thing, so it will always return false after the initial cast. That is why Holy Strike is also a Custom call -- eventually g_lastaction = "Holy Strike" and so the requirements for holy light domain become true and it will eventually recast.

Cancelbuff....cancels a player buff.

	Source code
1	{ name = "Function: CancelBuff", use = (pbuffs[501797]), params = {"Mana Shield"} },

This cancels the buff "Mana Shield" when the use requirements are met. Namely when you hae buff 501797

The funny thing is, I don't use the Custom and do use the g_lastaction to build a fairly sequential prioritized CE.

The version of Diyce I have only references that variable during a Custom: action call. I don't know if subsequent version changed use, and I'm sure that users can make use of that variable easily as well.

Quoted from "BlankMinded"

The version of Diyce I have only references that variable during a Custom: action call. I don't know if subsequent version changed use, and I'm sure that users can make use of that variable easily as well.

My version has been heavily modified. I read a lot here and there. ;-)

IIRC, g_lastaction was implemented as a way to tell what the previous action used was. It is a global variable so tghat it could be checked in the use clause of the skill list if desired (or in other locations).

I can't really remember the reasoning for the "Custom:" actions, but needless to say, as Ghostwolf implemented it, he obviously deemed it worthy.

The "Function:" type stuff was a modification to DIYCE 2 that I made to allow calling pretty much any Lua function you can think of. The name of the function you want to call comes after the "Function:" while the parameters to the function are in the special "params" clause. So taking that example:

This is equivalent to saying (in Lua)

But of course, it is done via the skill list.


While on the subject of functions, something that isn't taken advantage of much but can be handy is that the use clause need not be this massive list of ands and ors. You can instead merely provide the name of a Lua function and DIYCE 2 will call that function in order to determine if it should use the skill or not. Of course, the function itself would still need to perform the various checks, but it can be done in a cleaner way.

Anyway, if you want to try, the function should have no parameters and should return a true or false value. Here's an example using the "Disarmament" skill line posted above:
This:


could be re-written as:

with the following function added:

Hi Peryl

I'll give that a shot. Thank you. The way I have it written was the only way I could get it to stack at the time. I'm still getting the hang of Lua. Your tips and tutorials are a major help. Along with ALL the other folks that have helped over the years.

While I have your ear, I was wondering a few things. Could you give an example of how to see which player is currently playing (I.E.: local = UnitIsUnit(player) --Use this to determine which foodbuff/pots to use.) I thought I saw someone working on a foodlist once, but, can't seem to find it.

Thanks in Advance.

*Not so much an example...just a nod if I am heading in the right direction.*


Just FYI. It works like a charm, Peryl. Thank you very much!

P.S. I removed the extra ( from the "tbuffs" line.
