Well on many servers it seems like there are narc's waitin outside of instances every six hours and reporting people that automatically go get a new instance and zone right back in, so to combat this i figured it would be cool if there were a way to boot you from instance at certain intervals so you don't pop out every six hours on the dot. I needed something that would count time, originally i thought i could just have it as part of another subroutine with a /delay 5h or some such, then i realized that if it had a delay like that none of the rest of the macro would work, so this is what i came up with.
Insert this into your events. Change the number of points to suit your timeframe, and what you have banked when starting the macro.
Insert these into your subs. Put one of these sub's in for each event you add, then just change the number to match the event. Change the xxx to the person's name that is in your group, if multiple people in group just add additional /dzremove xxx.
Unfortunately I have not had time to test this yet as i am beat at the moment. hopefully will be testing it today though. Also of note this can be used for aa's or levels or anything you get a message for really, just need to change the message in the events section of the macro. You also need to know the time it takes you to gain an aa or level so you can put in the correct numbers. For me, in vxed i get about 1.25 aa/hr so by using increments of 4aa's it should boot me from the instance about every five hours or so.
If someone wants to test it before i can post my results any feedback would be appriciated. Thanks again and hopefully this helps.
