Command for opening dialogue with all NPCs

Now before i get the link your attack and then use macro /script UseAction(1) where 1 is where the attack skill is....

I have noticed this doesnt seem to work on all NPCs, like the new NPC for aquarius pet. I Tried this and it doesnt work. Is it just that i am missing something, do i ahve to have any DIYCE commands? Is it that they removed this ability, or it only works on some npcs?

Love some help and if there is a new command, i would like to know it. Been digging through the pet talk to addon code, housekeeper addon code with no luck.

I thought was for once you had it open. Really what i want it for is the new romance elemental pets require you to click on them and talk to them every 2 hours (for the most bang for your buck) about 25 times to upgrade them. Which to say the least is lame. It is like the Zodiak pets, but no one has any info on them so i wanna get it done so i can post what they do.

What i wanna do is write a macro that will let me after 2 hours talk to the pet and get the reward, shouldnt take too many lines of code so even the ingame macro should be enough.

Problem is i have the target part done right, so the macro will wait the 2 hours and then it will target, but the attack function wont open the dialogue to get the package.

Edit to add, they dont pop up a dialogue box like the other pets, the only trigger is a message in the chat window, and you get a normal npc dialogue box when you hover over with your mouse.

If you put the pet on Focus, and then use:

/script TargetUnit("focus1");
/wait 1
/script useSkill(1,1)
*whatever else*

that should work. I just tested it with my housekeeper and it worked fine. UseSkill(1,1) is the Attack Skill on your General tab.

You can't actually use macro's to wait that long....the longest /wait command you can use is 60 seconds, so if you are using /wait 7200 for 2 hours or so, it's only waiting 60 seconds and then trying to target it.

Best you can do is

	Source code
1 2 3 4	/wait 60 /wait 60 /wait 60 /wait 60

etc etc but you'll run out of characters.

Can you try it with the npc on the Varanas bridge with the zodiac pet? cause i been testing on that NPC, and it isnt working. I am thinking that NPC works similar to this pet

As for the macro length, i guess ill have to find something else to do the timing but still hoping to find out how to get this part of it working.

OK, I tried it with Norah Kalesy and it worked fine. Just had to put her on Focus and run the macro, and it opened up her menu.

I tried it on the actual PET as well. While he doesn't have a menu to open, he did GRRRR! at me.

Nope, no Diyce. This is strictly an ingame macro anyway, Diyce shouldn't have anything to do with it (unless you're trying to code this in the actual .LUA? that's a different matter entirely).
