      I'm trying to write a code to run a General or Character specific macro. What is the command to run the macro?

      Basically I want to use it like a spell. Just need the command, not the conditions.

      Thanks!

      You can't, it would be very beneficial sometimes.

      So we can't use the LUA and do like a "RunMacro" command?

      I believe it only looks in your spellbook. You'd have to edit a CC to make it do whatever the macro does.

      Why would you want it to run a macro? Hb should do everything it needs to and you also have plugins which should do anything else that you may need to.

      no macros are not supported
      cause HB reads directly your spellbook

      For this to work you need to edit your CC of choice by hand and put it in Rest() region, but it's totally do-able ^^

      Actually I think it was CodeNameG wrote me a quick plugin something like this that ran it while moving to hotspots... but his was the RunMacro, not the RunMacroText. I just gotta edit it and hopefully it'll work! I'm excited!

      Eventually I will be able to release something. The main thing I'm working on right now is a CC, once I get that running great I'll focus on the plugin.

      It is working as intended, however it is very specific to my setup... so it isn't something I'll release just yet. There are other chars that need some bug work, and I'd prefer to do it right. =P

      As for the CC, I've been working on a Feral Druid. The other CCs are simply over weight and run too slow. I compare them to Windows Vista... it does a lot and is really cool, but really is bogged down.

      The Feral Druid CC so far works very well but it is a high level CC so far... so I can't release that until I get it working from level 1.

      It uses cat form and if there are adds it uses bear form. And its much faster than the rest of the CCs by comparison. I noticed a huge jump in XP and also much better results in PVP... as he wouldn't run to the player, then wait to cast mangle... he'd actually be casting while running... it was more human like.

      In Cat Form it uses mangle, savage roar, ferocious bite, and interrupt casting with maim.... the rip and rake seem to just slow the kill down so I bounced them. In Bear Form it uses Maul, Lacerate, and Swipe... I'm going to implement a one time Mangle too for the lacerate, but overall maul does much more damage. Once the adds drop back to 1 it goes right back into cat form.

      It also uses Predator Swiftness (which makes your next healing spell instant) so if under a certain perfect in combat it will cast healing touch, or regrowth. It definitely helps with downtime.


      So what I need to do to make it functional for everyone is to build it up from a level 1. So it uses wrath when it doesn't have cat/bear form. Or bear form when it doesn't have cat form or dire bear form. Possibly implement barkskin and the feral charges. And maybe some debuff checks too, in order to remove stuff.

      This CC will not have group support, it will not be a healer,... it will just be a raw I'm going to kill you as fast as I can and don't give a shit about anyone else kind of CC =P

      And its based off of Hawkers Pally CC.

      Aye aye, seems fair ^^ Feral droods really needs something fast and raw, it's really the only way to play them xD
      But just wondering, isn't the Pally CC actually Mordd's Convalesce CC?

      I was using the default CC, hawkers 1.2. I honestly didn't even download Convalesce because I thought it was a healing CC haha... just tried it now... AWESOME =P
