Buff Macro : SWG Premium Discussions

[primoadam]

There is a Medic in Restuss giving out buffs while AFK and she was saying people names in the messages like "Hello Sindar, stand right there and i will buff you." Does anyone know this macro?

Just a version of the old afk doctor buff macro. I should have it on one of my accounts and will check later when I can get ingame.

Didnt take long for those buff lines to make a comback lol.

Im guessing its just /ui actiontoolbar blahness. but the way she says people names while afk is what stumps me.

Well, it is going to be a macro that will target the person in front of them (at the cursor), then it will action toolbar slots until you complete the buffs.

The target name part is from old commands like:

%TT (current look at target's full name)
%NT (target's short name - first name only)

Here is an example of a medic buff macro (using 6 buffs, you can add more if you have them):

Notes:
1) Name Macro: Buff-Bot.
2) Place as a hot-key in the toolbar of your choice for fast access.
3) I used a 3 second pause between buffs to allow for cycle time. You can adjust as you like.

/target AtCursor;
/pause 1;
/say Please be neutral or on leave to receive a buff;
/pause 2;
/say %NT, your buff is now starting;
/pause 1;
/ui action toolbarSlot00;
/pause 3;
/ui action toolbarSlot01;
/pause 3;
/ui action toolbarSlot02;
/pause 3;
/ui action toolbarSlot03;
/pause 3;
/ui action toolbarSlot04;
/pause 3;
/ui action toolbarSlot05;
/pause 2;
/say %NT, your buff is now complete. Good luck!;
/pause 5;
/macro Buff-Bot;

The one I saw was inviting people to group, then buffing them. I guess this stops people screwing up the bot by grouping around or running across.

Think the command is /targetGroup 0; or something like that.

You would need some way to invite the right person to group though.

Those ones invite after targeting at cursor, buff and then disband. Only 2 extra lines in the macro.
