If you want to use if spellmap == for multiple spells in a single line do you have to use spellMap == 'SpellName' every time? Or is there a shorter way of doing this?

Like
If spellMap == 'Spell1' or spellMap == 'Spell 2' or spellMap == 'Spell3' or spellMap == 'Spell 4'

Is there a better/shorter way of doing this like in Spellcast you could put | pineline between spells.

I was testing it with this

  	    if S{'Drain','Aspir','Sleep'}:contains(spellmap) and world.day_element == 'Water' or world.weather_element == 'Dark' then

But it wasn't reconizing the spells I'm casting it seems, removing S{'Drain','Aspir','Sleep'}:contains(spellmap) and replacing it with spellMap == '' does seem to work.

2 issues with your code
1. motes include does not have a mapping for sleep that might be your issue
2. and world.day_element == 'Water' or world.weather_element == 'Dark' then will not work
try this
if (S{'Drain','Aspir'}:contains(spellmap) or spell.en:startswith("Sleep")) and (world.day_element == 'Water' or world.weather_element == 'Dark') then

Hello.
I've found this blm lua and edited to my current gear.
However it seem to fulltime in idle gear when Im nuking or debuffing.
Any ideas how to fix it?

Also, would like to add in the file so I automaticly equip my Uggaleiph Pendant when mp is <51%

Here is a link to my lua
http://pastebin.com/qsb24fr1

edit:
from testing it seems it ignores my Elemental/Dark/Enfeeble sets all together. Temp solotion for me is putting the elemental gear in fastcast set which isnt optimal

[joso33]

bump

[dlsmd]

@joso33 i looked through your code and it all looks good so the only thing i can think of is something on your computer is messing up eather gearswap or Windower
try deleting your windower/update folder and re launching windower to force it to redownload all of it files again

[Shadowmeld]

Joso33:

Skills are spaced in the Resources now for magic.

If you go through your file and anywhere you see if (spell.skill == "ElementalMagic") and change it to if (spell.skill == "Elemental Magic") it should fix your issues.

specifically
Line 87, 116 change "ElementalMagic" to "Elemental Magic"
Line 128 change "EnhancingMagic" to "Enhancing Magic"

I don't even see any rules for Dark Magic or Enfeebling Magic

Also, not really sure why, but you have your obi check in midcast only acting when you are casting Enhancing Magic, which doesn't benefit from obis.

Edit: Additionally, looks like a copy/paste issue but the second spell.element value on lines 92, 110, 121, and 173 is misspelled as spell_element, which is an undeclared variable.

also, you'll get a null set error if you ever do line 129, because it will send as the set sets['midcast_Enhancing Magic'] which you don't have declared

I am using Mote's SMN lua and would like to add to the rule for Flaming Crush to use its own set. Here is the rules below.

function job_get_spell_map(spell)
    if spell.type == 'BloodPactRage' then
        if magicalRagePacts:contains(spell.english) then
            return 'MagicalBloodPactRage'
        else
            return 'PhysicalBloodPactRage'
        end
    elseif spell.type == 'BloodPactWard' and spell.target.type == 'MONSTER' then
        return 'DebuffBloodPactWard'
    end
end

How would I add to this rule so Flaming Crush uses its own set?

Also, would the set name need to be sets.midcast.pet['Flaming Crush'] or would I need to make it sets.midcast.pet.BloodPactRage['Flaming Crush']?

[Trumpy]

Search the lua for "MagicalBloodPactRage" and "PhysicalBloodPactRage" If I am reading that right they should have a table with a list of blood pacts that fit that category. Simply remove Flaming Crush from the list. Then you'd have to figure out how to equip the right gear for it. (Maybe a "if spell.name == flaming crush then equip stuffs" type thing) Being its a Motes file and im too stupid to figure those out.

[Shadowmeld]

I wouldn't mess with the mapping or even that specific function at all to tell the truth.

I would find your job_midcast function for smn and there I would find the rule where it handles blood pacts and just add an if spell.name == "Flaming Crush" and change the first blood pact rule to an elseif.

Nevermind my advice: I was looking through mote's luas and he handles the actual equipping of the bloodpact gear somewhere else that I'm not sure of at the moment.

What's the best way going about a cancel Ni while casting ichi rule?

I currently have

function midcast(spell)
    if spell.name == 'Utsusemi: Ichi' and overwrite then
        send_command('cancel Copy Image|Copy Image (2)')
    end
end
 
function aftercast(spell)
    if not spell.interrupted then
        if spell.name == 'Utsusemi: Ichi' then
            overwrite = false
        elseif spell.name == 'Utsusemi: Ni' then
            overwrite = true
        end
    end
end

But the problem with this code is that it cancels it too fast.

[Trumpy]

You mean cancelling the spell or the buff for utsusemi?

I do my buff cancelling in the precast (this requires Shortcuts addon). I figured this out in order to save a macro slot (I will need to update it when I get san). I just need one macro for utsusemi ni. If the recast for Ni is not ready it switches to Ichi. Then when it does cast Ichi it checks if the spell is ready to be cast and if copy image 1-3 are up. if so it cancels copy image 1-3 after waiting 2 seconds (you can change the wait to whatever u are happy with). I did not know you could use a "pipe" ( "|" ) in Gearswap. If i have more shadows than 3 (which I think would apply to NIN main only) it cancels Ichi altogether. It also puts a message in chat log and plays a sound for me via chatmon plugin. The only bad thing about this is if A monster is casting a ga spell or something So i cast ahead of time so Utsusemi Ichi will finish right after the spell lands and wipes my copy images it wont work. If i was casting NI nowever it would work fine. So maybe you can utilize this for your purposes in some manner.
EDIT: I used to have issues when utsusemi would quickcast though, It would cancel the buff. I am sure this would still be an issue but least you can recast it instantly. I am not ure you can do anything about quickcasts.

local spell_recasts = windower.ffxi.get_spell_recasts()
if spell.name == 'Utsusemi: Ni' then
	if spell_recasts[339] > 1 then
		cancel_spell()
		send_command('//UtsusemiIchi')
		return
	end
end
if spell.name == 'Utsusemi: Ichi' then
	if spell_recasts[338] < 1 and ( buffactive["Copy Image"] or buffactive["Copy Image (2)"] or buffactive["Copy Image (3)"] ) then
		send_command('wait 2;cancel 66;cancel 444;cancel 445')
	elseif spell_recasts[338] < 1 and buffactive["Copy Image (4+)"] then
		add_to_chat(039,'=x=X=x= Cancel: '..spell.name..' =x=X=x=')
		send_command('chatmon play c:/chatmonwavs/error.wav')
		cancel_spell()
		return
	end
end

Question:
I put this in my lua in the aftercast function. For some reason it isnt working for me correctly. Is it working for anyone else?

if spell.name == 'Paralyna' then
	if spell.interrupted then
		add_to_chat(039, 'Paralyna: Interrupted')
	else
		add_to_chat(158, 'Paralyna: Success')
	end
end

In this code it prints out the add to chat when it IS NOT interrupted. When it IS interrupted it does nothing. So It knows it didnt go off but doesnt act. It is making me worry a bit as i have some variables changed when some spells are interrupted and if its not actin on interruption I need to figure something else out.

[dlsmd]

@Trumpy
this code should work the same as you have except it will auto kill any spell and it removes all the redundant recast checks and it should be way more efficient

if spell.action_type == 'Magic' and windower.ffxi.get_spell_recasts()[spell.recast_id] < 1 then cancel_spell() end
if _global.cancel_spell then -- put what you want to do when spell is canceled in here
    if spell.name == 'Utsusemi: Ni' then
        send_command('//UtsusemiIchi')
        return
    end
else -- put what you want to do when spell is not canceled in here
    if spell.name == 'Utsusemi: Ichi' then
        local buff = has_any_buff_of({66,444,445})
        if buff then
            send_command('wait 2;cancel '..buff)
        elseif buffactive["Copy Image (4+)"] then
            add_to_chat(039,'=x=X=x= Cancel: '..spell.name..' =x=X=x=')
            send_command('chatmon play c:/chatmonwavs/error.wav')
            cancel_spell()
            return
        end
    end
end

function has_any_buff_of(buff_set)
    for i,v in pairs(buff_set) do
        if buffactive[v] ~= nil then
            return v 
        end
    end
    return false
end

So does anyone know offhand what in Kinematic's RUN LUA causes runes to show up with timer text in the chat log? I'll copy what I think is the relevant section below:

    rune_timers:append(entry)
    local cmd_queue = create_timer(entry).. ';wait 0.05;'

    end
    return count
end

            end
        end
        
        cmd_queue = cmd_queue .. prune(rune_timers[oldest].rune)
        to_remove = to_remove - 1
    end
    
    return cmd_queue
end

end

Basically while playing RUN when I hit a timer it shows in the chat log of 0.05 Ignis, etc. And occasionally it'll toss in an entire line of that message, just wondering if anyone knows how I can get that to stop.

Look for calls to add_to_chat(). It could be the one in update_timers() you pasted above.

I guess I will repost my paralyna code when gearswap is fixed and see if anyone else is having the ssame issue with that code.
