Not quite what he was after


I know there is /ui action cycleTargetInward - I think that may be the one

As long as they are a red dot, yes.

I mapped my NumPadEnter key to this macro:


/loot all;

/tar self;

/pause .2;

/ui action cycleTargetOutward


Once my target dies I press NumPadEnter and go on to killing the next nearest thing.


The previous poster is correct about the new /ui actions to target next and previous friendlies. The only difference between the Outward and Inward commands are whether it cycles toward targets closer to you (inward) or toward target farther from you (outward). However I use the commands thousands of times every week and I can tell you that it does not alway work perfectly, likely due to that fact that your client sees an enemy as closer to you whereas on the server that enemy has actually now moved farther away and the data hasn't synchronized completely at the point where you select the next target.


Also, a very important note: There is currently a bug I am seeing where an enemy that is standing toward the bottom of the screen from the center will not get targetted, even if using tab key. I have to spin the screen around to face them to target, unless I actually want to just give up and click with the mouse.


However, in the main my macro works great. For a melee player it makes it far easier to kill things toe-to-toe. I also have a macro very similar to this one I run that also feeds spin attacks for grinding xp. If you have further questions respond to this response and I'll see what I can do.
