if you want it that way just put moonshade earring as you engaged idle ear piece and change to the earring you want when when you ws at 3000 tp

here is the weapon skill rule
if spell.type == 'WeaponSkill' and player.tp > 2999 then

Hmm I am sorry I am really lost still with GS, So I need to make an engaged idle set? and then put this code anywhere saying if spell.type == 'WeaponSkill' and player.tp > 2999 then equip {ear1="Vulcan's Pearl"} ?

Could something work like this

if spell.type == 'WeaponSkill' and player.tp > 2999 then sets.Shoha.3000

and then

if spell.type == 'WeaponSkill' and player.tp < 2999 then sets.Shoha

or something like that? I am really new still I read over the files that come with GS still not really understanding it. I miss spellcast haha

i would never build sets with in sets like this
sets.Shoha = {--gear
3000 = {-gear},}
yes this is exactly what your doing it just does not look right to me

here is how i would do it

sets.weapon_skill = {-gear}
sets['Shoha 3000'] = {left_ear="Vulcan's Pearl"}
sets['Shoha'] = {-gear}


if spell.type == 'WeaponSkill' then
    if player.tp > 2999 and sets[spell.name..' 3000'] then 
        equip(sets[spell.name..' 3000'])
    elseif player.tp < 2999 and sets[spell.name] then
        equip(sets[spell.name])
    else
        equip(sets.weapon_skill)
    end
end

spellcast was slower and less precise then gearswap not to mention xml was way harder to learn then lua

[Gun-it]

Yeah GS is way faster I just don't understand it very much yet.

I am getting a error with the line "if spell.type == 'WeaponSkill' then" says attempt to index global 'spell'


Also I am using a thf GS I got off the other thread and I can not figure out how to swap between MDT/PDT and other sets the .lua says it uses "Mote-Include.lua". I looked it over and I can't figure how to get it to swap sets.

can you post you file to http://pastebin.com then post the link here so i can see whats going on

[Gun-it]

This is the file https://github.com/Kinematics/GearSw...master/THF.lua

I just changed some of the gear around. I am also wanting to add Moonshade rules to this file.

Thanks for all the help btw.

you just posted motes file not yours so i still cant help you
what i need is the file thats getting the error

[Gun-it]

sorry I had taken it out cause of the error. http://pastebin.com/G48Q4f8P
it starts on line 72

the error your getting is because you just put the rules i gave you in to the file not in a function with gearswap you have to put it in a function
i recommend you put the rule i gave you in to a precast function not just the main file (i think motes include uses job_precast(spell, action, spellMap, eventArgs) as the name/sent variables of the precast function)
now saying that i have no clue how motes include works and the names of the correct functions but there are many people here that do

if you were using my include(not ready to count th yet and am current ly re writing it to make it more efficient) or a hand built gs file i could help more

does anybody know what the caps are for the different levels of Curing Waltz with out potency??

[Foldypaws]

does anybody know what the caps are for the different levels of Curing Waltz with out potency??

Waltz's don't have "caps" (really, inflection points) like Cures do. They're just linear with CHR/VIT. Formula is on wiki.

no thay do (at lest Curing Waltz does at 95)
so im wondering if the other 4 do

--edit---
i found the first 3(at lest for sub dnc)
Curing Waltz = 95
Curing Waltz II = 200
Curing Waltz III = 375

--edit2---
ok for main job dnc there is no cap
here is my waltz code

function pretarget(spell)
    ...
    if spell.type == "Waltz" and spell.target.type == "SELF" and spell.en:startswith('Curing Waltz') then

            cancel_spell()
            send_command('input /ja "'..new_waltz..'" <me>')
            return
        end

i updated my last post

[Trumpy]

OK I cant seem to find it in the Variables file. They have spell.type but not spell.action_type. What I need to know is what are the various answers to spell.action_type besides "Magic" If any one can list a few It would be really helpful for me

[trv]

Ranged Attack, Ability, Item, Monster Move, Interruption

Ok and just to make sure about this. Let's pretend I am makin my own LUAs and not usin Motes or whatevers, if I have a job file that has an include file. And in both the job and the include i have function: function update_gear() , will the job file's update_gear() overwrite the include file's (assuming that the function has different code inside them)?

as long as the user file update_gear() is loaded after the include's update_gear()

example
function a()
--do somthing
end
function a() --this one will be the one you use and nothing in the first one will work
--do something different
end
