    "Skett, there is a bug that was reported 2018 you may be suffereing from. This is a guess,
    when you edit the macro and save it, it actually jumbles up the macro, click okay to close and save the options gump and revisit the macro you're trying to make to check this is the case and this is what has happened..
    Basically you cannot edit macros, you need to delete and start again if you want to change any macro that has more than one line in it"

    Misk actually said it was in the system, so i don't know what happened

    Shrug i don't care i don't edit macros in combat.

    I died 2 times today from bugs, once from nerve strike debuff not showing
    another from attunement bug on CC

    Business as usual


    Might not be this issue,
    to make macro for heal something you want to select a target using the target system (select nearest mobile or whatever it is)

    CurrentTarget
    Bandagetarget

    can't see the need for delay function"

    so what do i type in the delay window ?

  • YoshiYoshi Posts: 3,322
    "should not need delay at all

    Should just be

    CurrentTarget
    BandageTarget

    But you have to select the target using new target system, so make a seperate macro for select nearest: mobile, until the new target system brings up whoever/whatever you're trying to heal"

    "or can do
    LastObject
    WaitForTarget
    LastTarget

    that also works but first one is smoother"

    "you know what,

    if you just double click whoever/whatever it is you're trying to heal (make sure new target system is enabled)

    then simply
    BandageTarget

    will work"

    Too bad you did not ask about doing it in the EC.

    Magic Arrow - Target Self
    Delay 2
    Bandage Self
    Delay 5 (just a guess since none of my characters has the healing skill)
    Greater Heal - Target Self (just in case the bandage self failed to completely heal you)
    Delay 3

    After making that macro edit the character's file and copy the fragment 100 times
    Make a bag or bowel of popcorn
    Hit the start button
    Sit back and watch and eat popcorn.
    Jiggle the mouse every so often to keep from getting disconnected.

    You can also target a pet if you do not want to risk your self or armour.  I did that when training using Word of Death to reach SW 120.

    im looking for a macro that i can hold the key down and watch tv while skilling of course I wont be afk
    i have it set to heal the target that is dead but if i hold the key down it keeps re applying the bandages and never rez the target  i need a delay in the macro so i stop re applying the bandages

    “ @Skett that won’t work well because holding the button down will keep restarting the macro

    i will DM you I have some keyboard software that will loop the action of a button being pressed”
