Lua - Lua coders for hire

[Kar]

Are there any Lua coders that I can hire to write some scripts for me?

Best to define the requirements, I'd assume most things exist.

True that. I assume more things exist than what you can actually find on the forums.

Sure. I play on TLP with multiple groups and clerics and it seems clerics are not proactively rezing and if when are then they try to battle rez the same person. So I am looking to offload this to Lua:

1. Look for raid corpses (I can run this on a less busy cleric for now, in the future would be nice for each cleric to have a priority list of rez targets)
2. Target and summon raid corpse if close enough
3. Cast a rez

Watching, I also am wanting to pay someone to help me set some MQ2Events and move them to Lua's for Live.

I have the ideas, just need the implementation.

many/most people are happy to help as part of collaborative efforts - it is *almost* always better to just say "im trying to do xyz, does anyone already have something like that --- this is what i've done so far and this is where i'm stuck"

that stuff on multiple characters (especially not locally) can be a tall order, because you're going to get overlap in toons who are doing the same thing.

for the cwtn stuff, i suggest mixing and matching toons in raidmode and not raidmode specifically for purposes of buffs and rezzing. the non-raidmode ones would worry about their group and their xtargets only and not get sidetracked by raid stuff

For Lua scripts that offer something comparable to a single MQ2Event event, here is one example https://gitlab.com/aquietone/misclua/-/blob/main/atensilence.lua
Or another example that follows that same setup but uses a bunch of individual mq.cmd instead of some /multilines, this one does something pretty similar: https://www.redguides.com/community...versary-raid-karnors-castle-mad-emperor.2516/
The ToL mission threads also have a number of very similar luas

They're pretty short scripts that hopefully wouldn't be too hard to tell what's going on to modify to fit other events.

@aquietone Thank you, im not one to "Keep Information for Myself"

So I'll compile all of the T1-T3 raid triggers and release them to the MQ Community here at redguides, at least that way someone can tell me if I did anything the wrong way and it could be better.

Lua is ....something, but there is no arguing its 10x more effective than MQ2Events imo.

Modbot does all of this. You can even set which class type to priority rez in any order.

Modbot is far superior to any open source macro available.

Spend the time, make the switch and learn how to use it. You will be much happier.
