So a lot of times I find myself wondering if something I'm trying to do is a thing. But we all know the Wiki on macroquest2.com/ is outdated more often then not these days.

Well luckily for us there was one thing there that gives us access to some information that may be lacking in details. The ${Type[datatype].Member[#]}. So we could just type ${Type[spawn].Member[1]} and then ${Type[spawn].Member[2]} etc 149 times in a row. But what MacroQuest user would do that silliness. I wrote a very short utility to output to the MQ2ChatWnd the information by typing /mac data dataType. IE: /mac data spawn. I went a step farther and also made it output that information to an INI file.

The layout for the INI is Data.ini, DataType, Member#=Value. Like below.

The above is the result of typing /mac data spawn

I've set the macro up so that you can check any data type this way and it will produce up to 300 results if there are that many members to a datatype.

It only writes to the file if that Member# has no length. IE: if that member# doesn't have a value. IE: If I run it and there was a new member added to the datatype spawn and it now has 150 instead of 149 it would update the one spot instead of writing all 150 values.

While this is targeted at Developers, the common user can use this utility to expand their knowledge of the language.

/mac data character

would display all the things you can add to the end of ${Me}. The result would be 261 different members that can be attached to the end of ${Me}. Such as Member207=PiecesofEight. While I have no idea what PiecesofEight is, it's a member of the character data type.

A list of datatypes can be found https://macroquest2.com/wiki/index.php/Data_Types


Hope this helps someone.

--Update--

I've gone through the trouble of going through each data type as it was found in MQ2DataTypes.h in the test source to generate a comprehensive file. It's attached as Data.ini
