1) That would require you to hit a button (Or some action)
2) I think the [when="aftercast"] part needs to be removed if you decide to use a trigger spell

With AutoExec:
<register silent="true" event="(regex)tp_[0-2][0-9](/regex)">input /magic "Thundaja"</register>

Add this spellcast rule:
<if Spell="Thundaja">
<cancelspell />
<if BuffActive="Haste">
<equip>
_Thokcha
</equip>
</if>
<else>
<equip>
_{Onyo's Knife}
</equip>
</else>
</if>

Thanks! Is there a way to make it so that autoexec will only work if I'm on DNC NIN and THF or will it spam my game on every job?

[Yugl]

I've never done this, but...

<register event="jobchange_???/*">ae unregister 3</register>
<register event="jobchange_dnc/*|jobchange_nin/*|jobchange_thf/*">ae register 3</register>
<register ID="3" silent="true" event="(regex)tp_[0-2][0-9](/regex)">input /magic "Thundaja"</register>

I think that would work. The first line unregistered the third line. The second line registers the third line. The third line does the action.

I personally prefer spellcast, but that would require action on your part to trigger the equipment change.

Thanks ^-^ Will test in a few hours! Legion atm :Q

<If notBuffactive="Food">

[Snprphnx]

<If notBuffactive="Food">
<if notBuffactive="Refresh">

anywhere specific? and would the food be <if notBuffactive="Seafood Pitaru"]?

[Yugl]

Food is just food; the game buff doesn't distinguish the type of food.

Looks like your script is activated via Barfire and uses an <elseif>, so why not do...

<if Spell="Barfire" NotBuffactive="Food|Refresh">
<if notBuffactive="Refresh">
<changespell spell="Refresh" />
<command when="aftercast">Barfire</command>
</if>
<elseif notBuffactive="Food">
<cancelspell />
<command>input /item "NameOfFoodHere" &lt;me&gt;;wait 5;barfire</command>
</elseif>
</if>

::edit::
what you had i couldn't get to work. altered it a bit, and got a partial fix. it will cast refresh only when food isnt active. once food wears off it will cast refresh

I would have put that before the <elseif spell="Barfire">; that way, you change spell to Refresh.

[Snprphnx]

didnt work there either. and i was incorrect. as posted above, it will keep food on, but not attempt refresh

[Shiyo]

I've never done this, but...

<register event="jobchange_???/*">ae unregister 3</register>
<register event="jobchange_dnc/*|jobchange_nin/*|jobchange_thf/*">ae register 3</register>
<register ID="3" silent="true" event="(regex)tp_[0-2][0-9](/regex)">input /magic "Thundaja"</register>

I think that would work. The first line unregistered the third line. The second line registers the third line. The third line does the action.

I personally prefer spellcast, but that would require action on your part to trigger the equipment change.

Doesn't work, breaks gear swaps for some odd reason. I'll change to WS gear to WS, then it'll stay in WS gear forever and never swap back to TP gear.

[Yugl]

Stick with the spellcast method then. I can't test the autoexec method atm.

[Yugl]

In that case, you could just copy the food line and see if that works.

<if Spell="Barfire" NotBuffactive="Food|Refresh">
<if notBuffactive="Refresh">
<cancelspell />
<command>input /item "Refresh" &lt;me&gt;;wait 5;barfire</command>
</if>
<elseif notBuffactive="Food">
<cancelspell />
<command>input /item "NameOfFoodHere" &lt;me&gt;;wait 5;barfire</command>
</elseif>
</if>

[Shiyo]

How do I make the SC method work? It wasnt working when I tried, I gain tp so fast I don't have time to use an action before I gain 30% tp lol x_x Feels easier to just swap manually with 2 macros. Code for it might've been wrong too though.

nope. that prevents barfire from being casted unless i have refresh buff on

[Yugl]

Isn't that what you want?

[Snprphnx]

no, i mean i hit barfire and nothing happens. i have to manually cast refresh, then the script will start, but will stop whenever the buff wears off.
