Question - Macros

[Raidien1]

Is anybody working out already stripped down macros for Rizlona? I used IHC on live but there is so much that is not needed with that macro in the current form of the TLP, even kissassist is over kill.

Haven't used IHC myself but the whole point of that project I think is one macro that'll do 1-115 out of the box with minimal set up.

The only thing I can think of in kissassist that's not relevant is GoM? Everything else will surely be used.

I've been using kissassist myself on Rizlona and don't see much problem with it, don't know why you'd be looking to strip things out.

Yea, I used kiss from 1-50 on the toons that didnt have sics plugins - I use mq2cleric, mq2eskay, mq2monk and mq2rogue - But my shaman and chanter use kiss and it works awesome, you just need to edit the files yourself for the spells you want ect

I have been using mostly kissassist along with mq2cleric, my only complaint is the casters do not sit when low on mana when in combat. If you are chain pulling this quickly becomes a problem. You do have to keep up with tweaking your INI files but its not that bad just swap your spells out right after you buy your upgrades and your set!

they're @ChatWithThisName's plugins, i'm just the other half of the dev team, but they are all "CWTN"

I think most the code in macros goes to support behavior that's universal to EQ. I'm unsure what the big macros have that would get in the way?

Yeah the issue of characters not sitting to med as much as possible is a little bit of a problem that I've experienced too, it's something that's probably only noticeable on a TLP and especially at lower levels before enchanters get clarity at 26 and bards get mana song at 32. If you set MedCombat=1 or set MedOn to kick in at a higher percent then they just sit out the fight which isn't what you want either.

Worse still is when the puller stops to let someone med to 100% and other casters in the group just stand there not medding while only being a couple of percent over the threshold. Would be good when the puller calls a med break if everyone sat.

One workaround I have is to make a hotkey with this command and hit it in between fights, it will sit your group down if they're standing.

/noparse /bcg //if (${Me.Standing}) /sit

I must take a look at the macro and see if I can slip it into the code where the puller says he is stopping pulls to wait for X to med to 100%

I have gotten around this by setting my MedPCT to a higher value like 75-80%. Makes them think they need to med after every kill so they sit down immediately. Haven't had an issue with this to my knowledge and also don't have med during combat turned on.

I've been reading some workaround for the med thing and testes some conditions in kiss and holy/down shits in mq2melee as well....they are nice but sometimes they keep sitting and getting hit by mobs and taking a lot of damage so it could be a problem for some casters undergeared or under level...so here's mine:

downflag0=1
downflag1=1
downshit0=/if (${Me.CombatState.Equal[COMBAT]} && ${Me.PctMana}<90 && !${Me.Moving} && !${Me.Sitting} && !${Me.Casting.Name.NotEqual[NULL]}) /Sit
downshit1=/if (${Me.CombatState.Equal[COMBAT]} && ${Me.PctEndurance}<70 && !${Me.Moving} && !${Me.Sitting} && !${Me.Casting.Name.NotEqual[NULL]} && ${SpawnCount[npc radius 10 zradius 10]} < 1) && !${Me.Sitting} && (${Me.XTHaterCount} < 6)) /Sit

those are for mq2melee...for some reason the npc radius doesnt work well...


for kiss conditions:

Cond1=!${Me.Casting} && (${SpawnCount[npc radius 5 zradius 5]} < 1) && !${Me.Sitting} && (${Me.XTHaterCount} < 3)

DPS1=Cond1|100

I'm using this on dps section, not sure if its really needed

Edit: i forgot to put the command to sit on dps section...

i think this would work

DPS1=command:/sit|100|Cond1
