tut.mac - Finish Tutorial A

[playj]

As the title says this is a macro I made a long time ago in 2006 and it still works with no change(only added timestamp to echo)!

Requires MQ2Advpath but you have it if you are using Vanilla Compile.

Copy tut.mac into your Macros directory and tutoriala.ini into your MQ2Advpath directory.

then Run with /mac tut as soon as your brand new char has zoned into Tutorial A( The jail with Arias)

One improvement would be to find command to close the navigation hints window, but it does not interfere in running the macro

Also, this macro is not optimized for speed as it was run on a slow computer with a slow connection so there is plenty of room to optimize.

If you make any improvements, please post them here.

Cool idea. Might try this one out for fun.

For the navigation hints window, you could do this:

...
| Nav window is expected to be open
/if (${Window[NavWindowName].Open}) {
  /notify NavWindowName 0 close
}

I believe NavWindowName may be TipWnd, but would take some experimentation to make sure that's correct.

okay the Navigation Hints window is actually named AlertWnd (TIP: I got it by using

/windows open

command then closing the hints window and again checking the difference with /windows open command)
so it should be

/notify AlertWnd 0 close

Most important: one should now add a line just after first /echo

/useadvlooting off

else it will not loot the key since the advanced looting was introduced.

I also use EQs /viewport 0 0 320 240 command just to cut on POK lag a bit, but that is not necessary at all
