Thread: Buff Macro
Ok, I tossed this macro together to help my PA mates out with buffs while I'm hunting with my primary toon.
The idea works like this:
Place your Master Doc in a house with an access fee (Mine is set to 5k credits). Now, drag the macro icon to toolbar slot 00 (First row, First column). Start your macro, and make sure you don't run out of enhancement kits! The macro will loop through the following: Join Group, target group leader (I have it taget him twice in case of lag), buff target, disband, rest and reset macro.
If you find this usefull or want any clarification, drop me a message.
/shout If you need to be buffed, please pay the entry fee, then invite me to your group. NO OVERTS. IF YOU ARE OVERT I CANNOT BUFF YOU (I'm neutral) ;
/pause 2;
/say Please note that sometimes it will take me up to 5 minutes to respond to you due to the fashion in which this macro works.;
/pause 2;
/say Please make sure you are not in a group when you invite me, else I might end up not buffing you.;
/pause 2;
/say should I run out of medicine, please notify me via email as to this for a full refund.;
/pause 20;

-------------------------------Excerpt from another Buff bot doc in this forum
Which I've just noticed is the one you just posted. Hah, well done mate, this one works fine and thanks very much for it.
Whats the KOA btw?
Buff macro is simple to make. Well mines is. I just select the player i'm buffing and it the macro. You should have no fear in buffing yourself long as you don't hit the escape button while buffing the player or minimize your screen. If you must go to your desktop midway through a buff, don't do Ctrl+Esc, instead do Alt+Tab which will minize your screen and still keep your character in-game selected on the person your buffing. Hitting Ctrl+Esc will minimize your screen but your are also hitting the Esc key, which will de-select the player and you eat 10K worth of buffs (again) lol. My macro is simple. I fill my F5 to F10 bars with buff packs and my buffing macro in my F4 key. Macro goes as follows:
/ui action toolbarSlot04
/pause 16
/ui action toolbarSlot05
/pause 16
/ui action toolbarSlot06
/pause 16
/ui action toolbarSlot07
/pause 16
/ui action toolbarSlot08
/pause 16
/ui action toolbarSlot09
/pause 3
/say There you go, all set.
/pause 3
/say Next!
This macro is started by hitting the F4 key, which hits the F5 key, waits 16 seconds, hits the next key until it reaches F10, which is filled with the last buff pack. Like i said, pretty simple long as you refrane from hitting the esc key. Note: You can still have menues up like your inventory or d-pad screen and still hit the esc key to clear them with no fear in de-selected the player your buffing. But don't hit the esc key when you have no menues up and your just selected on the player or else you'll de-select and eat a buff or two.
Tip: If you want to be safe by not hitting your buff macro starter key, which in my example is the F4 key, and mistakenly start a buffing cycle, place this macro starter key in your secondary toolbar lots like F13 to F24. Then when you want to start a buff cycle, you must hit Shift+(macro starter key) to start the cycle. This protects you from hitting the key by accident. It is much harder to hit Shift+F16by accident than it is to hit F4.
if your having problems buffing yourself in the downtime, intsead of targeting a droid or pet, target sone random object.
add something like
/target m
To your macro at the end. You might need to experiment with the letter. What this is doing is targeting the nearest targetable object starting with the letter M, such as a nearby Merchant Tent...
I don't want to just do /healEnhance, I want to designate a specific order.
