Thread: macro if/then?

    macro if/then?

    does anyone know a macro command that would stop the macro if throwdown is not possible? So reckless doesnt go off if it is available.
    #showtooltip throwdown
    /cast throwdown
    /cast recklessness

    Not possible for macros to make decisions for you.

    the only chance you have is by doing it the following way and spam the button:

    #showtooltip
    /castsequence reset=40 throwdown, recklessness;

    edit:
    this way recklessness should not be activated until you used your throwdown.

    I thought cast sequence macros were broken back in BC?

    Well, they broke /castrandom in a way when people just added their entire rotation to the list and spammed it so that it chose one from random. /castrandom must perform the ability chosen before moving onto another random one.

    which really really really really really irks me with my cast random mount macro, a minor irritation to some but it just drives me crazy sometimes

    Hey Flaim, this didnt seem to make a difference for me last night. I hit my keybind and even though i didnt have a target for throwdown, it executed the reckless.

    any other ideas?

    Use 2 different keybinds? WoW is a simple game, but you can't make it so simple that the macros do all of the work for you.

    The macro only has 2 commands. Using 2 keybind's is no different than just pressing 2 keys. doh!

    That's the point, what you want can't be done.
