Hi all,
simple question, which tag in a macro stops a mage from starting another spell if they are already channeling a current one, i.e. if I am casting evocation and do not want another spell to interrupt it.
Thanks for the help

channeling:<spell name>
Normally, if you are channeling a spell and begin casting another spell, it will cancel the channel. This option allows you to keep that from happening, and also has a few other uses. For instance, maybe you do want to cancel one particular spell but not another. [channeling] alone matches any spell and you can also list an arbitrary number of spell names to check.
Note: channeling is NOT the same as casting. The [channeling] conditional only applies to spells like Arcane Missiles, Drain Life, Mind Flay, etc. where after the initial cast, the spell makes its effect over time.
nochanneling
A real world example:
/castsequence [nochanneling] Arcane Blast, Arcane Blast, Arcane Blast, Arcane Missiles
Alternatively you could put this at the top of the macro
/stopmacro [channeling]
But that seems less efficient

/castsequence Arcane Blast, Arcane Blast, Arcane Blast, Arcane Missiles
would have the added benefit of keeping your trinkets and other spells from breaking the channel too.
