If you feel I've said anything ambiguous or just plain wrong, quote it and if others agree with you I'd be happy to edit it, since you lack the moderation ability to do so. I was very clear with what I've edited in your posts. It's in bright red, and none of your text has been deleted.
[quote='Lax',index.php?page=Thread&postID=139779#po st139779]Fine. As long as you are going to agree that it is your OPINION that he implied ANYTHING besides AddOns shall NOT have the ability to "directly cast spells or change targeting",[/quote]
Answer me this:
If something cannot be done with an in-game Addon, and hasn't been specifically given an excemption by other rules/blues, does that mean that it can/should be done with out-of-game addons?
That's called LOGIC.
Maybe I'll add an example:
If delays can't be done with in-game Addons and Macros, and hasn't been specifically given an excemption by other rules/blues, does that mean it can/should be done with a G15 macro?
You, my friend, are using semantics to try and dance around and obfuscate the fact that there is indeed solid straight-from-Blizzard-reps proof that allowing a macro/addon (whether ingame or out is irrelevant) to target an AoE-targeted spell (such as Blizzard, Rain of Fire, Mass Dispell) is not something that should be done by in or out-of-game Addon.
[quote][color=#0000ff]Yes, allowing AddOns to target spells via the minimap ping was not intentional and was fixed. [b]AddOns may not directly cast spells or [u]change targeting[/u].[/b][/color] [/quote]
Did he say "in-game Addons" or "Addons"? Did he say "This does not apply to out-of-game addons"? Did he say "this does not apply to multiboxers" or "this only applies to solo boxers"? You can't make interpretations that aren't there. My interpretations are based on logical truths, not implications/interpretations, and are supported by rulings made on similar situations (G15s)
For your information -- that little green circle on an AoE spell? You know, the functionality that was changed by the editing of the Minimap:PingLocation? You know, the thing that normal people click on the ground? That's called TARGETING.
The actual little "ping" sound and action that happens in your minimap still happens. It's just the effect of spell targeting for aoe spells that was removed.
This is the blizzard UI message you get when you attempt to use minimap ping while mid-target of an AoE spell:
[quote]A macro script has been blocked from an action only available to the Blizzard UI.[/quote]
Is an out-of-game macro/addon part of the Blizzard UI? And since you're investment in this thread/forum is via ClickBoxer -- is ClickBoxer part of the Blizzard UI?
P.S. I checked the thread I was referring to when I mentioned you claiming the same functionality exists in Keyclone, and I will admit I made an error. It was actually [url='http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&postID=139147#post139147']Zanthor who made that claim.[/url] And I do believe he was mistaken -- Octopus/Keyclone can make RELATIVE mouse movements, but I don't BELIEVE (and I'll let an expert confirm) whether they can click on specific x,y coordinates (particularly if the windows are different sizes/resolutions).
