Problem - Casting keeps interrupting?

R

Howdy,

I can't seem to get my enchanter to tash and slow mobs. She keeps interrupting herself. It is like she is in an interrupt loop, casting Tash and Slow over and over. My druid had this problem as well with casting a dot, but I added a SpellDelay and it started working. This doesn't seem to fix my Enchanter though.

Edit: I forgot to mention I am running modbot 5.1 on the ProjectLazarus emu using the RoF2 client.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for your time.

I haven't tested ModBot on EMU. I imagine I could be using things that older clients do not support, but you'd think that would halt the macro with an error. Have you tried changing those TarType=11 to TarType=1 ?
 
I played around with the ini some, and this seems to be working. Am I supposed to be using SpellDelay?

Ok, it seems that when I set TarType=1 for the Tash and Slow debuffs, it gets into that interrupted loop. It is like she starts to cast Tash, then interrupts herself, then starts to cast Slow, then interrupts herself, then starts to cast Tash, etc. etc. She does this until the mob dies. Based on the documentation TarType=1 should be MA target only. Is the MA the Tank? I don't see a listing for MA.

Oh yeah, Thanks for replying. :)
 
I enabled MBDebug in ModBot.mac, /declare MBDebug bool outer TRUE, but I don't see any of the debug output. Only thing I see is the statements about no heals in your ini, etc. Is there somewhere else to enable debugging?
 
Your new ini has TarType=1. You said that was working, but then in the next post say it is not? SpellDelay can be helpful, but shouldn't be needed too often.
 
Thanks Woobs for replying.

TarType=0 works as expected, but TarType=1 causes the interruptions. I pasted the AD ini below with TarType=1. This is what causes Tash and Slow to interrupted constantly. Should the below AD be ok?

Check for proper TankName configurations and that everyone is on NetBots and has it enabled. Usually, when I see people saying their casters are interrupting everything it is because they aren't on NetBots or don't have the Tank set properly.

I can't recall what I did to get it to work. I haven't been playing this character for awhile. I think it was a combination of messing with TarCnt and TarType and NetBots. I made sure all of my character ini files had the below NetBots entry. Then I unloaded the MQ2NetBots plugin and re-enabled it.
