Macro no longer working as intended - LavCat - 01-14-2012
I need some macro help. Unless I am crazy the following shaman macro used to work properly. Not sure when it stopped working, but it no longer does what I want it to:
#showtooltip Frost Shock
/cleartarget [noharm]
/targetenemyplayer [noexists]
/click [flying,nocombat,noexists] SilverDragonMacroButton
/cast [noharm,nomounted,noform] !Ghost Wolf
/stopmacro [noharm]
/startattack
/cast Frost Shock
/use 10
The circumstances under which the macro fails is if I have a dead enemy targeted. I would expect that running the macro while not flying or being in Ghost Wolf would cast Ghost Wolf. But what happens is that I get an error that I cannot attack that target.
I have tried changing the second line to:
/cleartarget [noharm,dead]
but that does not help.
If I change the second line to:
/cleartarget [dead]
the macro works as I would then expect, but that is not quite what I want.
Was /cleartarget changed at some point to no longer work with harm/noharm as a conditional?

Try /cleartarget [noharm][dead]

That did seem to work, thanks. Why I am not sure. I thought
[noharm][dead]
[noharm,dead]
[noharm]
all had the same effect?
RE: Macro no longer working as intended - Taelas - 01-24-2012
The difference is that [noharm][dead] is two different conditionals (where either one causes the target to clear), whereas [noharm,dead] is one (where both have to be present to clear the target). So the single conditional [noharm,dead] only fires if the target is both dead and not an enemy, whereas [noharm][dead] fires if either the target is not an enemy, or if the target is dead.
[noharm] is not enough, as it still tries to fire if the target is dead (assuming it is an enemy).
This is not something that has changed, by the way -- I don't know why the issue only came up recently.
