    Here's a question regarding click and such.

    Let's say you've got your click macro and it's firing 3 or 4 macros for you, each containing a castsequence of one single spell. In this case, let's say it's one for Moonfire, one for Insect Swarm, one for Wrath and one for Starfire. All of these are clicked by the click macro.

    Now, all of the castsequence macros that come from click macros, at least that I've seen, are riddled with commas after the actual spell, that's the buffer of clicks until you'd want to recast it. Question is, could you not just put ", null" in there and have the reset condition on the castsequence reset whenever you'd normally want to recast it? ie:

    "/castsequence reset=combat/target/12 Insect Swarm, null"

    Would that not fire Insect Swarm once, until out of combat, target changes or 12 seconds passes, and do nothing else until one of those conditions was met?

    Maybe I'm missing something that would prevent that from working, but if that DID work, that would mean you could garauntee a re-fire of the spell exactly when either the cooldown was up, or when the spell dropped off the target, which would be ideal.

    No. The point of the commas is timing. For a spell like Insect Swarm, you want it to reapply every time it is dropped {or better, every time it is about to drop}. Combat and target are acceptable reset conditions, but /click is still performing actions on that sequence, even if it is not actually doing anything, so that castsequence will not have 12 seconds of inactivity.
