    Default Spamming a "Send Next Click" keybind

    Hi all,
    just wondering what happens when this is done

    I have a macro on my druid/mage to do hurricane and blizzard and send next click trough ISBOxer.
    it works fine.

    I have also macroed holy nova to that button on my priest, and added a [nochanneling] to the druid and mage to make sure their spell is not interrupted.

    now i can spam this key to cast multiple holy nova during the channeling of hurricane/blizzard, but what happens to the 'next click'?
    I don't necessary click the screen every time i press the keybind and it seems at some point the macro and 'next click' won't be 'sync anymore.

    any comments?

    cheers,

    ISboxer will send the next click you do to the windows you specified.

    I have a similar setup and I sometimes hit my AOE macro key (for my druid or mage).

    That means that 20 or 30 seconds later when I hit my autorun key (mouse 4 or 5) my mage and druid take off on their own. it's been annoying and I'm going to just unbind the key for them, but to answer your question.. those mouse clicks do get sent eventually, whenever your next mouse click happens.

    ok, so if i click he "send next click" key 3 times in a row (without clicking), will it take the next 3 clicks, or just one?

    Pretty sure its just the next click, even if you spam it a few times.
    You could experiment pretty easily to see if this is the case.

    yeah i did try it a bit, but in my case it seems the clicks were not passing after a while.
    For example, i had the green gound targetting circle show on the slaves, and the spell would not fire no matter how many times i clicked on the master.

    if i do it nice and slow it all works fine however. I just need to not be spazztic and spam my keys retardedly :-)

    The way it works, if the "send next click" function is active, and you press the hotkey again to activate another "send next click", it will actually toggle it off. I should just remove that toggle as it seems more of a nuisance than it's worth; the original intent was that you could start casting hurricane (etc), change your mind and hit your hotkey again, and it would both stop trying to cast hurricane (by pressing the same hotkey again in the game it would toggle it off) and stop trying to send next click, and both would be in sync...... under ideal conditions. Actual gameplay isn't so ideal and if the cooldown isn't quite up yet when you start hitting it, it can get out of sync where the spell starts to cast but the next click isnt being sent, or vice versa.

    So I think I'm just going to remove the toggling behavior of send next click and make you click. If anyone wants to implement toggling behavior the way it works right now, you will still be able to do it with a second step that disables mouse repeat.

    Anyway, yes it's only expecting a single click, it's always just on or off, no "ok now that i spammed it i have to click 3 times"

    ah right, thanks for clarifying.
    Indeed, i usually cancel my spells with escape, so that's how i was getting out of sync.
