Question Macro help

[Draakmis]

Greeting,

I am looking for a very specific macro. The idea is to cast hibernate on the target if possible, if not then cast roots.

I am pretty sure there is no ability to call creature types like you can do with class types (maybe I’m wrong?)

So I what thinking and if, then statement. If casting hibernate doesn’t work (since it’s not a beast) then cast roots.

I use super macro also.

Thanks for any ideas and help.

Roid-Macros lets you easily write these type of conditional macros:

/cast [@target type:Beast] Hibernate; Entangling Roots

My guess is that you need SuperMacro addon for this to work.

Should be doable with only the built-in macro API. UnitCreatureType(unit) might work, I can try to whip up a macro for you

Not tested this, but it should work (atleast with some tweaking.. I don't play druid so I can't test it, but I think it should work.

/script if GetUnitName("target")==nil then TargetNearestEnemy() end
/script t=UnitCreatureType("target"); if string.find(t,"Beast") or string.find(t,"Dragonkin") then CastSpellByName("Hibernate") else CastSpellByName("Entangling Roots"); end

Just copy & paste, don't add any whitespace or newlines and report back if it doesn't work

Eucharn, that does work! thank you very much

You need to install the linked addon Roid-Macros for the macro I posted.
