Compressing macros is fun!
  • if something matches [help] or [harm], it will also match [exists]. Since your characters are friendly, use [help].
  • You don't need [target=name] in a target command, you can put the name after the conditions.
  • /f = /follow (and /tar = /target, but you already use that).
  • Target will try to find the best match, so (with a little risk of targetting the wrong guy) you could
    remove a few characters from the end (especially with your weird characters).
  • Do you need any conditions on the last character?
/tar [help,nodead]Kaiya;[help,nodead]Ðecea;Ælures
/f
silly me..


so i could potentially have a follow macro like this (stripped down to the bone)

/f [help,nodead]Kaiya;Ðecea;Ælures

quick question tho.. I was under the impression that the nodead and help/exists part went after the the target=.... to make the conditions applicable to the target. does this way of writing it not place the condition of following on your own character? so you only follow if you are [help] or [nodead] and not the target? what i mean by that is .. that the clones follow command would depend on whether they are alive and not if the main is/isn't... am I anywhere close to being right?

just like when you write:

/cast [swimming....] Seal form (i forget the exact name) it depends on your character..
so
/f [help,nodead]Kaiya would depend on whether you are dead or not



in which case you would be able to write

/f Kaiya;Ðecea;Ælures no?
