Ending a search once condition is met

Is there a way, either macro or DIYCE, to set a condition to false, and once true, execute a command and turn itself off until you reset it or log off.

local herald = false for i =1,50 do if UnitBuff("target", i) == "Herald" then herald = true say in party chat, "..toon name IS HERALD" no longer check for herald

I want to be able to see who is herald if I target them, it does not seem to show up very often anymore when the event happens.

Using a global variable (along with the macro you posted already) could do this, but you would have to set it equal to false before entering siege war. To modify your current macro, just remove the part before the for loop, and set/declare your variable herald = false before entering siege. While you could program the same macro into diyce, it would be no different then making a macro and not having to add extra code to diyce.

Your other choice would be to make an addon to do this.

Something like:

Source code

 
1

herald = herald or false if not herald then for i =1,50 do if UnitBuff("target", i) == "Herald" then herald = true say in party chat, "..toon name IS HERALD" end end end


If herald is nil or false it will be executed, once your herald it will stop doing so.
