Thread: Looping Macros
I think even if you had a looping macro, you get booted from the game after a certain period of no mouse/keyboard activity. My friend and I were talking, and what do you think about this:
Create your looping macro, buy an optical mouse, hang it on an oscellating fan so its sensors move your mouse cursor around slightly. Loopedy loopedy loop
.
just tested this and i believe the numbers will be right for most people. As for the boxex appearing this macro just ignores them and carries on digging until the resource disappears.
i place 1 macro on f10 - /sample;/pause 25;/stand;/pause 30;/ui action toolbarSlot10;
the second macro goes on f11 - /sample;/pause 25;/stand;/pause 30;/ui action toolbarSlot09;
this constanly keeps my action green..and the stand command is what causes the boxes to be ignored.

yes, i have healing macros set up like this.
you need 2 macros. at the end of the first one, you do a /ui action toolbarSlotXX. the second one ends with /ui action toolbarSlotYY
XX, YY= the slot in your toolbar the macros have been placed. say you put them in the first 2 slots on the 2nd row. this would make it 12 & 13 (the first slot is 0). that's it
i have
/healwounds ; /pause 30; /ui action toolbarSlot12
/healwounds ; /pause 30; /ui action toolbarSlot13
You don't need 2 macros for that. Assuming your macro is in the F1 position,you can do:
/healwounds; /pause 30; /ui action toolbarSlot00;
And this will repeat the same macro.
You can also add the following line at the end of your macro....
....say your macro is called Survey
/sample; /pause 600; /stand; /macro survey,
this will cause a running loop, you will have to type /dump for it to end....

I use this to loop all of my macros and it works perfectly.
