Release [Macro] GroundGrab.mac 2020-05-24

[Randyleo]

You need to open the mesh for the zone and turn the radius all the way down and rebuild the mesh.

What about skipping one that you get a lore message? The only issue in elddar forest or something is the branches have the same name between the lore ones and then on-lore ones.

Yep, having this problem as well. It seems to spawn as fast as I can destroy it too.

 

[Saven]

Is there a way to have it pick up more then one item ? As in both kinds of shrooms in Kaladim for the brewing of Kaladim Constitutionals.

 

[Grimm68]

when i was doing kaladim shrooms i modified the mac

open the collections mac, do a find and replace. Glowing globe replace all with mushroom


Would save it as a new mac though so you always have the collections.mac to work with

This is definitely one of my favorite macros.

However, there are some zones which cause me problems and I die, on my 115 / max AA rogue. Places like Skyfire where mobs pop my SoS, or Tempest where I get stuck in bad lava. It handles combat kinda-okayish, but better if you're in MQ2Rogue with Vorpal mode on, I have found. I still have limitations to my combat prowess when soloing however.

Is there any chance of adding in a "if < 20% health, use Stein to gtfo there" or something to that effect?

Splendid!

Where do I put this macro? Is it in my toons Macro? I'm after the Rose Corn GS. Ty! I need like 1k roses.

yup just toss it in your macros folder - or you can "watch" the resource and it will get added to your VV launcher and you can download it from there

 

[Peppe]

You guys are doing Gods work! Thanks!

 

[Peppe]

Sorry for double post!

But, if I want my toon to zone between Ocean Village and Ocean Hill for the Corn Rose GS.

How do I make my toon zone between these two zones?

 

[ChatWithThisName]

walk through the zoneline.

 

[Peppe]

Should I put that into the ini for GroundGrab macro?

 

[ChatWithThisName]

I mean if you want to change zones, you need to manually walk through the zoneline. It's not going to wander around zones randomly, it's just going to work in the zone you're currently in. There is no way to know if there is a ground spawn in another zone unless you physically go to that zone.

 

[Cannonballdex]

Could edit the script to call for going to oceangreen village if no spawn available in oceangreen hills and vice versa, but the script would only be good for those two zones and would probably consist of counters so you don't keep zoning back and forth when there is no spawns.

 

[Blitzkriegan]

how do we skip ones in misty thicket? gets stuck on trees and just gets stuck. is there something i can do or anything out there that can work around this? just tryin to get some acorns for cooking

 

[Cannonballdex]

If your stuck on trees it is a navmesh problem, you will have to find one that fixes that or edit the navmesh.

 

[Blitzkriegan]

i mean its acting like there is a thing there but it isnt. where it is on the map is where the thing is. but nothing is there...

 

[Blitzkriegan]

if anyone has a misty thicket mesh if thats the case it would be great im just trying to get acorns for cooking and this one spot almost center map is keeping me from being able to do anything lol

 

[Cannonballdex]

I just went into misty thicket and typed /mac grab green leaf and picked up every one in zone. I renamed my groundgrab to just grab because it was easier to type /grab lol. Nothing special about either file, Any way here is the mesh and the file you can give it a try. The only reason you would stop somewhere is if all the spawns were picked up, they you have to wait for them to respawn, should say this in your mq2 window.

 

[Scamper2]

this works well!
not sure how to /end it? got stuck in a loop (could not loot the item)
had to /q to stop it.

 

[ChatWithThisName]

typing /end
That's how you end it. It's a macro and all macros end with /end, /endm, /endmac, /endmacro or variations of the same.

 

[Robban]

Any time you run a macro, be sure to have ha pause button.
/mqp
or 2
/mqp on and /mqp off
always a life-saver

 

[Cannonballdex]

And a /nav stop
helps too. haha.

 

[patherfinder08]

is there a reason this never works for me no matter what item i put in it just says "waiting until more spawn"

 

[Robban]

depends, sometimes the items isnt named what you think they would be named. But glowing should work if you want collectibles. What names have you tried to grab?
/mac groundgrab glowing
should be working if its a zone with collectibles at least

 

[BlankStare]

If you're getting that message, then what you typed in doesn't exist in the zone. As previously mentioned /mac groundgrab glowing will pickup collectibles that the macro can navigate to. Substitute glowing with whatever item you're needing to pick up, based on your map and what it displays.

 

[cristel]

I know this sounds like an odd question but is there a command to stop the ground grab

 

[BlankStare]

It's a macro, so stop it like every other macro.
/end (ending it) or /mqp (pausing it)

 

[cristel]

thank you dear hugs

 

[MOTD]

Would be great if there was an option to not stop and fight. Mq2melee tends to be more problems than it's worth.

Funny to see this mentioned. It was the first thing I thought of when I got aggro in the new zone and tried to fade it off, only to realize I was engaged in combat. LOL

 

[mikeraylittle]

unfortunately I can't seem to make these work. Can pause but it does not "un-pause" thus getting my puller beat to a pulp

There shouldn't any pulling with this. What class are you running groundgrab.mac with? They should be ungrouped, preferably a rogue or a class that can perm invis to everything in the current zone.

 

[Boring]

Is there a way to keep Selo's on my bard while running around without manually clicking Selos?

*Edit - is there text I can add to the macro itself. - maybe pull text from another macro?

Maybe melee holydown get it to check your run speed if it's not what bard speed is the alt act selos sonata or whatever that it

Just start singing Selo's Accelerando. If no melody, that song will stay up indefinitely.

I would recommend checking out MQ2GroundSpawns plugin instead of the macro.
