Weakauras Range/Usable skill

[Galbrei]

Hello. I've been trying with little success to make an aura that will activate when I have a target, the target is within Shadowstep range and when Shadowstep is off cooldown. So far I have succeeded to make the aura only pop up when I have a target and SS is off CD, but I can't make it register range. Can anyone help me out here? Thanks a bunch!

I don't think WA has a any built-in functionality for that. You'd need some custom coding somewhere.

you need to make a custom trigger:

function()
  if(IsSpellInRange("Shadowstep", "target") == 1) then
    return true
  else
    return false
  end
end

and a custom untrigger

function()
  if(IsSpellInRange("Shadowstep", "target") == 1) then
    return false
  else
    return true
  end
end

Wow, that seems a lot more complex than I thought it would be. I'll try to put that into my shadowstep macro, hope it works. Thanks a lot for the help, really appreciate it!

you need to add it into the weakaura.

Add a new trigger to the one your making and set it to a custom trigger, add the two above as the custom trigger and custom untrigger in the text boxes.

I just finished it and your code worked brilliantly! I even managed to make another inverse one that will display the same aura with a different color when I'm in range but SS is on cooldown. No more dieing on fire while spammin SS wondering if it didn't work because I was too far or because it was unavailable!

Stevie, you're a gentleman and a scholar!
