i havent tried one with that long a wait, but i would think that you would have to add the /script TargetUnit("player") part to make sure you have something targeted to cast on.

well they work bt the time isnt 300 seconds or 1500 seconds.... i cant figure out the time but it will cast out fast but i just saw a macro on the EU forums that was

/wait 60
/wait 60
/wai......

so i am guessing that is the max :(



edit :
ok i got it to work

ex: instead of casting enhanced armor every 5 mins i have two macros

in hot key slot 55

/cast Enhanced Armor
/wait 60
/wait 60
/wait 60
/wait 60
/wait 60
/script UseAction(56)


in slot 56

/script UseAction(55)


that will cast every 5 mins (i made one for holy seal too and then made a macro so when i log i hit it and it cast all the skills and food buffs i want an a reoccuring cycle.. just saves me from forgetting)

OK I have this script
iam at work not sure on names but they are correct in the game

/cast Vampire Arrow
/wait .75
/cast Wind Arrows
/wait .75
/cast Wind Arrows
/wait .75
/cast Wind Arrows
/wait .75

vamp arrow is instant cast so .75 but i always get an error for cooling down and only 2 wind arrows shoot off I changed to 1 to see
if a difference but same error. I can manually shoot the wind arrow in
that time frame any suggestions?

I really want to use the GetPlayerBuff listed here http://rom.wikia.com/wiki/Macros if that was possible. I'd love to have a macro that checks to see if a buff is already on, then only casts it if it isn't on. I don't know how that works though or how you would use it in a macro.

UnitHealth not working?

I'm trying to make a macro to perform an action if a monster is still alive but it's not working:

/script if(UnitHealth("target")>0) then UseAction(1); end

What am I doing wrong here? Do I require and else statement?

Thanks all.

Idk know the setup of the code enough to fully help you monster, but I do know that you have to have the last thing in your code be the ; . Having end after it won't work.

Monsterdaddy,

I use this same macro, you just need to add ; to the end

/script if(UnitHealth("target")>0) then UseAction(1); end;

That should get you back on track

Thanks all, I got it to work. Found some weird bugs though.

First I wrote up some macros on notepad and copied and pasted them. For some unknown reason they won't work. But if I type in the same exact words it does?!

Another thing, a simple /script UseAction(1) will not work if you add a ; at the end. Weird.

Lastly, the limit ISN'T 255 characters. It includes spaces and returns!?! So much for using character count, LOL!

Hello all,
I just started up a priest and was lookin to put together a simple macro to make combat a little easier. what I want is a macro for rising tide that will turn on my melee attack when i start casting my spell. a common macro that I would use in WoW looked alot like this:

#showtooltip [name of spell]
/startattack
/cast [name of spell]

I really liked the showtooltip command so I could see what spell I had in the macro (mana cost , cooldown , range , etc) Is my above example possible in RoM ?

There is a priest guide under priest class that has some macros as well as a priest macro thread

I found UnitHealth and UnitMana to be very helpful.

Question, is there a UnitRage, UnitEnergy, UnitConcentration??? So I can launch combos only when I know I have the total amount needed for the full combo?

One last question, is there an assist term? i.e. UnitAssist("target')????

Are there basic math functions in macros and if so what functions can we use?

I'm trying to calculate something in seconds but I don't want a response like 9.22394230740237402

Is there a rounding or integer function and what would I type? Thanks again all.

Ok after alot of reading post and such i now have a good idea how to make macros, gratz to me and thanks to everyone whos posted.
But 1 thing im still not quite sure about is at the very end of the macro, are you suppose to make it like this for example:

/script UseAction(1);
/wait 1;
/script UseAction(2);

or

/script UseAction(1);
/wait 1;
/script UseAction(2); end

or

/Script UseAction(1);
/wait 1;
/script UseAction(2); end;

or do i only use the ; or ;end or ; end; at the very end of the macro string like:

/script UseAction(1)
/wait 1
/script UseAction(2); or ; end or ; end;

Aswell is im having some health pot macro problems, perhaps the way to end the macro as above examples maybe why, cause im not sure how to end it off.
And once i make the pot macro as many have posted here, do i add icon to hotbar?, and if so, do i have to press it say b4 a battle and pray it goes off automatically, or do i leave it in hotbar and it will trigger on its own?

Thanks in advance any smarty who can answer these questions for me.

Is there a macro for gather until the vein is out?

Like making your mouse click on the vein every 4 seconds until the vein is out of materials?

this was asked already, in this thread actually. remember to use search. here was the Q and A:

Quoted from "Xagest;14381"

Is there a way to macro resource collection? I hate having to switch to my mouse to right click the mining vein or plants that's right in front of me.


Quoted from "bezralu;14574"

From my skimming through many threads and posts here and on the EU forums, I'd have to say that there isn't. This was asked also on the EU forums somewhere in the UI Addon forum section.


also, not to be a nag, but perhaps many of these questions deserve their own posts. this Macro Guide thread looks more like a sub forum =P
