Being new to Jedi I wanted to make a macro that switched to another hotkey pane where I start heal macro, kd recovery, follow, equip weapon, start duelest stance, and eat foods for when I get attacked by a BH. In order to switch panes I am typing (/ui action toolbarpane04) but it isn,t doing anything. Obviously this isn't correct, can anyone give me the correct command? Also, if anyone has a simular macro, could you share it or share what you put into it?

Two thoughts, one I am pretty sure that macros are case sensitive, so this should be toolbarPane04. Secondly, if you haven't, you should add in a /pause 1; or something after switching panes, or else it will shift back instantly, not having enough time to consume the foods and such, it will, in fact, appear that it isn't switching at all.

Lol. Just do it by hand. It really doesn't take that much longer and is easy to do if you set it up right. when I get attacked, or getting ready for pvp, I hit control+2, f1, f2, f3, control+1, /def (my alias for aura/valor macro).. That's all done in 1-3 seconds and I'm ready to fight.

man I'm just coming back after being gone for a while but - I remember mapping other macros to different keys. What I did is moved my movement keys to esdf instead of wasd and then use wqazx and rtgbvc for other abilities..


you can, I think map custom macros to keypresses - let me go research this when I get home and remember how to do it.


anyhow, what I would do is put situational things on the quickbar, and my global things on my keys. stims for instance is always 'c' or whatever.

x is 'knockdownrecover;/stand


guess I gotta look it up

Here are the macro's I use only have to start them one time.


First my PVP macro is one macro that starts 3 others. I use Speed, Infusion and Feedback, make a macro for each on these. Here is an example.


Macro Name = Speed


/forceSpeed;


/pause xx (xx is number of seconds it lasts plus 2


/macro (name of macro in this case Speed)


Once you have made all your macros, macro another and call it PVP, Here is how mine is setup.


/macro speed;


/pause 1;


/macro infusion;


/pause 1;


/macro feedback;


Once you hace that made all you have to do is type out /macro pvp to start it and it will run till you /dump


I also made one for food and switch from my main pane use the food in toolbar and swtiches back.


Name macro food


/ui action toolbarPane xx (xx is the pane you want to use)


/ui action toolbarSlot xx (xx slot you put food in)


/pause 1;


(repeat the last two steps for as many hotkeys you need)


/ui action toolbarPane xx (xx which pane yu want to switch back to)


To start this macro type out /macro food

That was it. I capitolized the P and put in a 0.2 sec pause and it works like a dream. Within 2 seconds im all prepared and fighting. This macro is SWEEEEEEET!


Thanks a bunch

I have a couple macros I use that I find help a tonne. I refuse to use recursive macros to stay buffed because I think relying on things like that puts you at a tactical disadvantage. So I have macros like this:

Macro: ForceAura_Timer
/forceAura
/pause 40
/addalarmin 0 0 Refresh Force Aura!

Have 'em for most of my buffs, and also offensive moves on timers. It's very nice to know when you can root or KD again.

/stand; /pause 1; /sample; /pause 450; /sit; /pause 150;


repeat


There is a pop up that says it finds a concentration of resources or something. I don't know how to get around that but I also don't know if it will stop an infinite loop of the above.

BTW this is not an Architect topic and should really be asked in Artisan forum.
