I like to minimize the number of keys I have to bind and press to do various things. One of my favorite little macros is to automatically use my flying mount if I'm somewhere flyable, otherwise, use my land mount. This has served me well in outland. In northrend, until I got the Cold Weather Flying training on all my toons at 77, I just replaced the macro with the regular mount.


/cast [modifier:shift,nomounted] summon charger; [outdoors,nomounted,flyable] Swift Purple Wind Rider; [outdoors,nomounted] summon charger
/dismount [mounted]

The problem is that even though you can fly if you're already mounted in Dalaran, it won't let you USE your flying mount unless you're on Karsus' Landing.

Most annoying when I go to mount all my toons and it fails. Holding SHIFT while hitting the mount macro button does work, but I always forget.

Anyone have a better method that actually works in Dalaran? If I don't find something, I'll consider writing something into MultiTool, but I was hoping to not have to go that route.

This is what I'm using, you could edit it to add subzones like the landing so you can automatically mount flying when you are there but I haven't done that yet.



/script if (GetZoneText()=="Dalaran") then CallCompanion("MOUNT", 3);end
/script if (GetZoneText()=="Wintergrasp") then CallCompanion("MOUNT", 3);end
/use [flyable,nomounted] Green Riding Nether Ray; [nomounted] Great Brewfest Kodo
/dismount


You'll want to replace the "3" with the slot # your ground mount is in under the mounts tab.

OOOh, thank you... I shall try it out. Gonna add some kind of modifier in case I WANT to mount flier on Karsus Landing, but otherwise looks promising.

Cheers!

Here is how to get it working for the landing too.
