Question - Giving time to arrive at location

[jimmy6154]

Just wondering if there might be a better way to write this. The intent is to nav to a loc then not do anything else until the char gets to the location. Once at the loc, move on the to next line in the macro.

    /echo Moving to the exit now
    /nav locyx -163.58 1069.97
    :runningexit
    /if (${Math.Distance[-163.58 1069.97]} > 10) {
        /goto :runningexit
    }
    /delay 3s
    /echo at the exit now

 

[Sic]

Many folks just delay while navigation is active.

Make it a function so it's reusable imho.
The highlighted lines are part of another macro but you can either choose to use them or not. You would have to make your own combat Sub.

[CODE highlight="3-15"]Sub NavToLoc(int Y,int X,int Z)
/while (${Math.Distance[${Me.Y}, ${Me.X}, ${Me.Z}: ${Y}, ${X}, ${Z}]} > 15) {
/if (${Me.XTarget[1].ID}) {
/if (${Navigation.Active}) {
/nav stop
}

/call Combat
}

/if (${Me.Combat} && !${Me.XTarget[1].ID}) {
/squelch /attack off
/squelch /target clear
}

/if (!${Navigation.Active}) {
/if (${Navigation.PathExists[loc ${Y} ${X} ${Z}]}) {
/nav loc ${Y} ${X} ${Z}
}
}

/delay 1
}

|We've arrived.
/if (${Navigation.Active}) {
/nav stop
}
/return[/CODE]

If you're writing something new, Lua is also so much better

Thanks all for the input

Thanks CTWN, that's perfect.
It is a lot better then what I was doing above. I had all my loc's like the above and after then 10th one, I was like there has to be a better way.

@aquietone lol I can barely copy and paste stuff for a macro and make sense of it. Lua even more foreign to me... lol

Try this. This doesn't need any timers. This example uses a target but can be changed to a location.

repeat
until mq.TLO.Target.Distance() < 6
