Display Lucky/Firey Chance

Is it possible to make a macro to display a message saying whether the skill in the special action bar 1 is firey chance or stormy chance when lucky chance is used?

Moved to "AddOns, UI & Macros: development" since it is a macro related question.

/run for i=1,50 do a1,a2,a3,a4,a5 = UnitBuff("target",i) if a4 == 506582 then SendSystemChat("You have Stormy Chance") elseif a4 == 506670 then SendSystemChat("You have Fiery Chance") elseif not a4 then break end end


Sends a system message (orange text) of which skill you have.
Substitutions -- replace [SendSystemChat(message)] with
SendWarningMessage("you have fiery chance") if you want red text (like the "cooling down" message)
SendChatMessage("you have fiery chance,"PARTY") for party chat
SendChatMessage("you have fiery chance, "WHISPER",0,UnitName("player") to whisper yourself

Look up those functions on http://runesofmagic.gamepedia.com/List_of_Functions too find more information on using them.

Woot, Thank you Xamd! ^^

Do I need to have it on a seperate macro? I tried adding it to after the line that casts lucky chance, and first click of macro casts lucky chance, second click displays message fiery/stormy, but also casts lucky chance again.

I wonder if an addon could be made that makes lucky chance work the same as magic tricks and display different icons for each skill

Of course each click of your macro will cast lucky chance -- you have it in the top line to cast lucky chance EVERY TIME you use the macro.

to avoid this you would have to use the following (there is no need for /cast anything, just copy and past below)

Source code

 
1

/run local lucky = false for i=1,50 do a1,a2,a3,a4,a5 = UnitBuff("target",i) if a4 == 506582 then lucky = true SendSystemChat("You have Stormy Chance") elseif a4 == 506670 then lucky = true SendSystemChat("You have Fiery Chance") elseif not a4 then break end end if not lucky then ExecuteMacroLine("/cast Lucky Chance") end


The above is a 2 click method -- the first click should cast lucky chance, the second identify the skill. The following is longer, but is a 1 click method:

Source code

 
1

/run local lucky = false for i=1,50 do local t1,t2,t3,t4,t5 = UnitBuff("player",i) if t4 == 506582 or t4 == 506670 then lucky = true elseif not t4 then break end end if not lucky then ExecuteMacroLine("/cast Lucky Chance") for i=1,50 do a1,a2,a3,a4,a5 = UnitBuff("target",i) if a4 == 506582 then SendSystemChat("You have Stormy Chance") elseif a4 == 506670 then SendSystemChat("You have Fiery Chance") elseif not a4 then break end end

For the second macro, when I use the macro, it casts lucky chance, but does not display the message. It makes my toon say nothing in say chat 3 times.

That should work. First one didn't cuz I was missing an end statement and had "target" instead of "player" (that's what I get for typing sht out without testing). I added wait in between the "check" and the "message" parts of the macro, so that the buff is actually on the character before looking for it.

Is it possible to get rid of the /say chat? It is working now, but still sending blank messages in /say chat 3 times and prevents the macro from being used again, since the game doesn't allow you to spam /say chat.
