Hello again, could anyone help me with this?

For some reason my macro does not work. I want to activate my CD + on use trinket AND hands (engineering) with one button. It only activates trinket and cooldown.

Code:

#showtooltip Dark Soul: Instability
/use 13
/use 10
/cast Dark Soul: Instability

I'd suggest the pet conditional, but you'll probably hit character limits depending on how many pets you want built in.

Also, /click does not accept modifiers as far as I know.

On-use trinkets and the glove tinker put each other on CD for the duration of the effect.

I use this macro. It takes ore in my bag and puts it all in my guild bank in just a click or two.

#showtooltip Ghost Iron Ore
/run for b=0,4 do for s=0,36 do l=GetContainerItemLink(b,s) if l and l:find("Ghost Iron Ore")then UseContainerItem(b,s) end end end

What i would like is one that grabs it out of my guild bank, and puts it in my bags.
Does anyone know how to write a macro to do that?

You might try this (drycoded, untested, don't blame me if it blows up your computer - shouldn't, but you never know)

Code:

#showtooltip Ghost Iron Ore
/run for b=0,GetNumGuildBankTabs() do for s=0,98 do l=GetGuildBankItemLink(b,s) if l and l:find("Ghost Iron Ore") then AutoStoreGuildBankItem(b,s) end end end

for loop counters are automatically limited to the loop's scope.

Good to know, I'll revert the edit then.

So I have a macro that goes as follows:

#showtooltip
/cast [mod] Death Pact; Raise Dead

Is there a way to make it /say something only when I use it without a modifier?

/stopmacro [mod]
/say Say macros are annoying, btw.

It works perfect, thank you very much for your help Taryble.

Damn, forgot about that, thanks for reminder.

Another question.. Id like a script that allows me to move alternate power bar, i know there are many addons for it, but i try to avoid addons, have only few. I already have few scripts that i run every time i log in that changes my default UI a bit. I expect that there will be coordinates somewhere and ill be able to write in and choose location, but i have no idea how to write a script. Could anyone help me?

Is there any way to have a macro (or addon) announce who you are ressing?

And not "/ra Ressing xyz", because I tend to spam the res button and I don't wanna flood the chat.

**Da Baws** · 2013-01-18, 03:53 AM

I want a really simple macro that flirts then cuddles with whomever I have targeted.
I thought it would be
/cuddle
/flirt
but it wasn't. It only cuddles.

**Treeston** · 2013-01-18, 06:37 AM

There's a cooldown on chat emotes now. Try getting something that enables /in (one of them is called SlashIn I believe), then do

Code:

/flirt
/in 2 /cuddle

Howdy folks,

I'm looking for a macro that can swap between farclip settings. When I'm outside instances, I can easily run my view distance all the way up, however inside instances, anything other than a low view distance makes things feel laggy. So far I've been changing the setting through the menu, but that's getting old. I know I could create individual macros for each setting, but that's a total waste of macro and bar space, and I don't want to run an addon to manage a single setting.

So, anyone have anything that can swap between low and high farclip in one macro, either a toggle, or right/left click/modifier?

This is a simple rewrite of my zoom distance changer macro:

Code:

/run local x=1600 if GetRunningMacroButton()="RightButton" then x=400 end SetCVar("farclip", x)

Click with left mouse button for farclip 1600, right mouse button click for 400, adjust numbers as needed.
