Macaroon issue

[Vyndree]

Does anyone know of a "null" type spell that I can use between commas that would be a valid do nothing spell?

Try a out-of-combat rez. If you're in combat or there's nobody to heal, it'll just sit there.

Or you could try something like "Refreshing Spring Water" -- it might maybe work since the item does exist in the game, but you 1) can't use it in combat and 2) aren't likely to have lowbie water in your bag at 80?

Just ideas.

If you are talking about using this for castsequence spell,,,, utilization an out of combat spell will simply stall the cycle permanently in combat.

Macaroon storage structure is a bit more complex then a single file. You need to open up each file named maca* in the wtf folder (and all sub folder). Ingnor the .bak ones but all the others may have to be changed at the same time. Just doing the one file in the top directory isnt going to cut it. Unfortunatly you are just better off doing changes in game. And thats just for one character, if you look close at all the files you open you will see that most of the information is character spicific and if you want things to work the same for another character all that has to get changed also.

I didnt have problems with /castsequence ,,,lightning bolt etc. but I have not used them since the patch.

You can try ending with a comma, I really havn't figured it out if its needed or not:

I.e. /castsequence ,,heal, instead of /castsequence ,,heal

Not sure why the last command would need a comma becuase nothing follow it but if a xxx, is a "unit" that is looked for then not finding the trailing comma would cause problems.

I had the same line 2322 error you are having Xar (or at least I think they are the same). Thanks to your experiments I was able to work around it... I just took all my cast sequence macros with empty commas

#showtooltip Howl of Terror 
/castsequence reset=30 ,Howl of Terror

for example, and put those in as a Blizzard Macro - then placed the Blizz macro on my Macaroon bar. Not the best option I know, but at least I'm not getting the errors anymore.

 
if (self.macrospell) then 
if (lower(spell) == lower(match(self.macrospell, "^[^(]+"))) then 
self.updateicon = true 
end 
updateMacro_OnEvent(self) 
updateMacroCooldown_OnEvent(self, true) 
end

Line 2 from above seems to be the issue.

From a post a few months ago:

Ya me also line 2322 or something, I think I going into it and disable it I dont know what it does though lol ... but seeing its giving error whatever it does isnt being done anyways. Just search for a "lua editor" and it will count the lines for you and just go in and delete the command at that line.

its in the Addons Macaroon Macaroon_buttons.lua file


Here is the line:

if (lower(spell) == lower(match(self.macrospell, "^[^(]+"))) then
self.updateicon = true

Here is the error

Interface\AddOns\Macaroon\Macaroon_Butons.lua:2322 : bad argument #1 to 'lower' (string expected, got nil)

you can pass that infos on to maul

Im changing:

if (lower(spell) == lower(match(self.macrospell, "^[^(]+"))) then
self.updateicon = true
end

to:

self.updateicon = true


in my copy

seems to work ok after that fix.


Whats happeneing is that the 2322 error is back (addon causing to many errors close or ignor) cause we downloading the new macaroon and it dosnt have our fix in it.

That's what "null" does as well. Stalls the macro until the "reset" condition is hit (keeping in mind that the reset condition is... well... reset... every time you press the macro)

I just gave up on Macaroon. Got the lastest updated one and go to do /mac create bar and it doesn't let me hit enter to give the command. If I do /mac create then it just shows bar:

So, I'll just leave it alone unless someone knows how to use it lol.
