After trying to use soul orbs to heal

What class is having this issue?

1. Necromancer

How often does this issue occur?

Always

I've been browsing back through Ini's trying to find a way to do this, and forgive me if I didn't immediately see this but necros level 61 get the soul orb spell to summon a clicky heal. So I got my dps to fire with a conditional to make sure I am not getting more than a full stack of these in inventory
DPS2=Soul Orb|90|Cond4
Cond4=${FindItemCount[Soul Orb]} < 20
That part works fine and dandy.
But now the problem comes when trying to actually heal with these.
I tried initially just Heals3=Soul Orb|60 and that attempts to fire off the spell to get another actual orb in inventory instead of using the stack I have (since the spell and the name of the item are named the same)
I tried changing it to Heals3=Command:/useitem "Soul Orb"|60 and that never seems to fire off.
What might I be missing here with these clicky orbs for healing?
My hope was to use them to spot heal pet, myself, etc during the middle of the fight when available.

can you try and do an /echo ${Spell[${Soul Orb}].Range} and see what is returned. Also have you tried to manually tried to use the /useitem Soul Orb and see if that works or not?

The Echo command returns back Null
If I do the /useitem it does correctly use the item if I target myself or whatever target I want to heal. Just doesn't seem to fire off under a heal.

My bad gave you the wrong syntax. Give /echo ${Spell[Soul Orb].Range} a try

So the spell to summon the item, and the Item name itself are the same. Then the only option is to use the Command: tag. Try Heals3=Command:/useitem Soul Orb|60. Drop the double quotes you have.

Unfortunately, the way /Useitem works is it is going to try and Useitem on the first match it finds with "soul" and ignore the " orb", which is why folks are often recommended to use quoties

Then his original format should work.

So far neither one seems to auto cast it.

[Heals]
Help=Format Spell|% to heal at i.e. Devout Light Rk. II|50
HealsOn=1
HealInterval=0
AutoRezOn=0
HealsSize=5
Heals1=Touch of Mujaki|80|tap
Heals2=Touch of Death|50|pet
Heals3=Command:/useitem Soul Orb|60
Heals4=Death Peace|30|me
Heals5=NULL
XTarHeal=0
XTarHealList=Xtar slots here Example: 5|6|7
HealGroupPetsOn=0
RezMeLast=0

or the Heals3=Command:/useitem "Soul Orb"|60
Both seem to ignore the fact that I have a stack of 20 soul orbs ready to heal with and never actually seem to cast it.

I think the issue is that the CastWhat routine passes the Command: string with additional quotes so that what is being passed is "/useitem "Soul Orb"" and So most likely the double quotes are not getting interpreted as we think they should.

I know there are some places where you can replace it with a single quote but I'm guessing that wouldn't work here to fix this?

[MQ2] Loading INI Info from all Section(s).
[MQ2] Invalid Format for. Heals3=Command:/useitem Soul Second
Tag: NULL Should be a Numeric Value.
[MO2] Skipping Entry. Heals3. Please correct and restart macro.

Just saw this in the start of the macro so that is why it does not fire off, it's disabling it.

I think that's because it's expecting the |60 after so it knows what health percentage to fire that line. so it should be Heals3=Command:/useitem soul second|60

That's because it seems to be tripping up.
The actual command in the ini is Heals3=Command:/useitem "Soul Orb"|60
So it for some reason is seeing "soul orb" as soul second.

Just as an update got my necro into the 70s and with the Umbra Orb spell set it is still doing this same thing. So there is something not working well with trying to use an item that is named the same as the spell for healing. Not sure if this is something that can be patched into new version of KA?

 

[ctaylor22]

I will put it on the list, but Kiss checks if you have an item before the spell, and will try using the item before using the spell.
