[Guide][EN] How to create a CustomClass [UPDATED v8]

[kampfschaf]

Is there a way to allow a player to channel a spell?  I want my warlock to be able to channel Drain Soul for the duration but it just keeps casting and recasting after 2-3 seconds of channeling.

Setting the optional third parameter (wait for cast) on CastSpellByID to "true" should do it.

Code: [Select]

CastSpellByID(1120, Target, true);

How exactly SendKey() wroks? For example SendKey("a") will press keybinding "a" in game? Thx

[kampfschaf]

like a short keydown event, yes.

Code: [Select]

SendKey(83, 2000);

will send the "keydown" signal for key 83 ("s") to the game for 2000 milliseconds (movement)

hi,

Is it possible to execute a macro by its name?

[kampfschaf]

A feature I would love for my Hunter and for Pet Checks. Going to query hamburger ,)

I tried to customize my Mage Class. It should use conjured food if some is ther, else it should make some.

With LuaDoString I didn´t manage to get it to work.

Now i wrote a macro which will eat or make some food. I bind it to "j".

I implemented :
function eat()
if PlayerHpPercent() < 99 and GetAttackerCount() == 0 then 
   _Log("Eat");
   SendKey("j",3200);
   SendKey("j");
end
end


The log shows "Eat" but nothing is happening. What´s wrong?

Thank you

[Hamburger]

you have to replace "j" with the VirtuelKey number for "j" ;-)

[sod53]

the ascii code? - 106

SendKey(106, 3200); ?

i tried, but also didn´t work...

Anyone have any examples of/if i can tie together a priority for custom classes? A rotation is fine and dandy, but i would really like it to start at the top of the spell list after every spell cast. Working on a brewmaster CustomClass and i want it to cast kegsmash>Blackout Kick>jab>Tiger palm.

also while im here, im haveing trouble setting up Zen Sphere as a heal spell.
   if not HasBuff(124081,0) if IsSpellKnown(124081) and IsSpellReady(124081) and PlayerHpPercent() <= 70 then
      _Log("Hp lower then 70% Cast Zen Sphere");
      CastSpellByID(124081, Player, true);
   end
It fails to load the profile with the if not hasbuff callout and runs just fine without it. I just dont want to get the benefit of it ticking without waisting 2 chi to blow it up(hence the callout to ingnore the line if i have the HoT already ticking). If anyone could give me some tips on either problems i would love it!

Lol.. spent another few hours pouring over this guide, my code, and other profiles just to realize i had two "if" statements in one line X( at least im learning

Basically, the "NextAction();" action call used in all the profiles (including examples) doesn't do what it's supposed to, as far as I can tell. I simply used "do return end;" instead: http://mmocrawlerbots.com/forum/hunter/another-bm-customclass-profile/

Working on an Arcane Mage CC and wondering if there is a command to check the number of stacks of a buff (or in this case, the Arcane Charge debuff) and cast Arcane missles if there are 4 or more and arcane missles are ready.  i know how to code it to check if AM is ready and then to fire it - would be similair to the instant pyro script, but not sure how to check buff or debuff stack count.  any help on that would be appreciated

thanx
Ven

Is there a way to make the casting (say elemental shaman to cast lightning bolt > Lava burst) with out a huge delay? Like there is a good 2 sec before starting to cast the next spell.  Like it is going through the entire check list after being interrupted.

[zukzuk]

I guess you could always write your Fight() function in a way so that it never returns until your current target is dead or GetAttackerCount() == 0 (or maybe merely until GetAttackerCount() == 0, you would have to take care of target switching as well then though).

Then you could loop over your priority list however you want and e. g. check "UnitCastingInfo" (WoW API) to see if your character is still casting, and if it isn't proceed to the next action right away (and if your character is still casting, sleep for e. g. 100ms and repeat the check) .

return;  <===| needed to do something after he checkd or casted the spell.

and not <===| is the correct syntax dont make more than one If  between If then

CastSpellByID(124081, Player, true); <===|  124081= ID of the spell what u want to cast | Player= selftargeting or selfcast | true= wait the casting time of the spell. ( if the spell is instant write false )

_Log("Hp lower then 70% Cast Zen Sphere"); <===| _Log("<Text>");  this is what you see in your bot's log you can write here what you want. I can't write down in english what i wanted to say here :/ sorry



Here is the correct code in my opinion but i'm still learning this. So maybe i had a mistake :d but i hope i dont have:P
