| |
| − | The word "macro" is just a way of saying "I want to push one key and get this action to happen" It is just a fast way to complete complicated tasks in the game.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | It is most commonly used to gain skills or to cast a complicated series of spells/weapon special abilities with the push of one key
| |
| − |
| |
| − | For example I use this combo before I enter combat:<br>
| |
| − | I push my F1 macro and Cast Enemy of One<br>
| |
| − | I push my F2 macro and that sets my weapons Primary Ability<br>
| |
| − | I push my F3 macro and it casts Consecrate Weapon<br>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Now I can use these keys to fight very fast and cast spells with 1 keystroke
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The Macros screen can be accessed from the paperdoll by clicking on the options menu
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Macros are an important feature of the game that allow you to fully customize your interface. Macros let you string together complex command combinations to fit any circumstance that you think may arise. You can have as many Macros as you like (at least until you run out of keyboard commands), and a Macro can contain as many actions as you wish (of course, the more actions a Macro has, the less likely it is to be useful on a regular basis during play).
| |
| − |
| |
| − | You can scroll through your current list of Macros using the previous and next buttons on the Macro screen.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | To enter a new Macro:
| |
| − | Click on the add button for an empty command field. Enter the key you want to use to trigger the new Macro (numbers, letters and punctuation may be used). You may also toggle the Shift, Alt or Ctrl keys on or off. For example, if you want to enter four Macros for use in battle, they can be triggered by B, Shift-B, Alt-B and Ctrl-B. (Note that Macro commands using only letters, or Shift + letters, may be unintentionally triggered during normal text communication).
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Once you've selected the trigger, enter the commands that will make up the Macro itself in the field below the command field. Click on the field to see a list of available options. Each time you set an option, a new command field will open up for any further commands you wish to apply to your Macro. When your Macro is done, just stop adding commands and click Okay or Apply to save it.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | You can delete an existing Macro by clicking the delete button, then clicking Okay or Apply.
