Did someone eventually figure out autoexec or spellcast code to afk at fortalices for skill up, and automatically engage/attack fortalice when it repops?

edit: searched the thread, came up with

Code:

<if mode="and" Spell="Meteor" SpellTargetName="Zvahl Fortalice">
	<action type=“Command”>input /attack &lt;t&gt;</action>
</if>

and a link to a RDM skill up thread with a loop

So I was messing with this spellcast today to get it to equip new stoneskin gear for casting stoneskin, but I think I messed something up. It equips the stoneskin gear now, but whenever I rest or stand up my console says: Did not find set: Uknown in Group: BLM. Probably something dumb I did...

**Motenten** · 2011-09-06 16:52

Probably this rule:

Code:

            <if NotSpell="Stoneskin">
                <equip when="precast|midcast" Set="idle|%Skill" />
            </if>

Triggering on autoset, which of course doesn't have a %Skill value associated with it (thus, Unknown).

**TacoTaru** · 2011-09-06 17:32

For some reason I feel like I'm missing some lines, or syntax or something here, but just double checking.

Code:

<if spell="Blade: Hi">
			<if Buffactive="Visitant">
				<equip when="precast" set="AHi" /> 
			</if>
			<else>
				<equip when="precast" set="Hi" />
			</else>
		</if>

Correct! Thank you.

Maybe this has been asked but scrolling through pages of this here I didn't see it.
On my BLM xml can I add a rule to when I cast Aspir 2 it casts it but lets say I hit Aspir 2 again on my macro and it isn't up then it would automatically cast Aspir?

Nope, that's it.

"Yes" - http://www.bluegartr.com/threads/749...=1#post4776572 is a start to that, but it'll fail if the recast is off, you get different values of haste/slow applied, you're stunned/terrored/otherwise unable to cast when you hit the macro.

It'd be easier to do a rotating bind of the aspir key, but it wouldn't reset to aspir2, just would be "the aspir you didn't use most recently"

Code:

alias whichaspir aspiralpha
alias aspiralpha aspir2; alias whichaspir aspirbeta
alias aspirbeta aspir; alias whichaspir aspiralpha

Code:

        <if spell="Chant du Cygne|Sanguine Blade">
                <if mode="Or" SpellTargetDistanceGT="6" tpplt="100">
                        <cancelspell />
                </if>
                <else> 
                        <equip when="precast" set="%spell" /> 
                </else>
        </if>

To me this looks like if I hit my macro and its out of range or less than 100 tp it would not gear swap or ws, but standing idle with 0 tp it does swap. What am I doing wrong?

TPLT, not TPPLT - TPP, if it is a thing spellcast recognizes, would be 33% at 100TP, 100% at 300TP - but I'm betting SC doesn't know what to do and just returns a true for that.

You are correct. It should be TPLT. Thanks

Maybe it has been asked already, but where can i find rules for CureCheating on PLD using RELIABLE HP variables ? please.

Currently, my attempts fail cuze of unreliable %HPmax %HP variables...

%HPP is too inaccurate to be effective.

**Gustave** · 2011-09-07 10:40

What variables do you use? It can't be that unreliable. Why not just error on the % being too low? You'll just equip extra enmity for it.

This is my current attempt. Ignore the Cure on other ppl, it works np and no choice.
The part i've troubles with is on myself, still inaccurate: i know for example my Cure3 cures for about 193HP but actually healing only 150 or even less... Same with Cure4 normally curing for 393HP, actually going for 280 or less...

Are you on rdm? I think this is your problem

<aftercastdelay delay="1.5"/>

Code:

 <s id="3" index="3" prefix="/magic" english="Cure III"  mpcost="46" casttime="2.5" recast="6" alias="c3" />
  <s id="4" index="4" prefix="/magic" english="Cure IV"  mpcost="88" casttime="2.5" recast="8" alias="c4" />

That would be a good time for midcastdelay though, I've used both 1.5 and 1.3

Masamune · 2011-09-07 13:24

yes i added this aftercastdelay to actually delay the HP- from Dark Rings in aftercast set...

without it i cure 40HP less than numbers showed previous post

... and no this a cure cheat for PLD

**Gustave** · 2011-09-07 13:47

I see. I thought aftercastdelay set a new aftercast time for that but it adds to the aftercastdelay.

The problem is probably not your hpp%. Why don't you try going into enmity midcast and set a midcastdelay around 1.3?

You're going
1600/1600 engaged
1600/1673 enmity -130 from hp down
1543/1543 then a difference in 320 from hp down to hpup.
1543/1863.

If ethereal is not your lear in enmity set you're probably not getting that much difference.

You need to midcast in enmity or atleast go into hp- before enmity set. Thats if it processes the sets how I think it does ( top to bottom, left to right ?). With a 1.3 midcast and default afterecast I have no issues with dark rings.

Masamune · 2011-09-07 14:30

problem is %HPP is a percentage.... highly inaccurate. What i want to use is %HP and %HPmax, but tests show they don't match real values unless yu open equipment window...

For yur question: i put emnity set @ precast because im already using precast for setting HPdown items (hence on top of some slots from emnity set), to finally put HP+ items @ midcast.
If i put emnity set @ midcast (and HP- items), when would i put HP+ items?

**Gustave** · 2011-09-07 14:33

Did changing enmity to midcast fix your problem?

**Radec** · 2011-09-07 14:37

Set HPMAX to static variables based on your SJ, then, and you'll only need to use %HP.

If %HP not matching, nothing SC can do - make 2-3 macros for different HP levels and watch it yourself.

Masamune · 2011-09-07 14:42

yep Radec it's what i mean... see the addtochat in code, they r there to show me %HP actually don't match at all...

and no Gustave i can't put emnity set @ midcast, see my above post edited.

k then guess i'll have to manually test like radex says and test several fixed HP values and use arbitrary values...
