more macro questions

Player Questions Started Last reply 8 posts
1: when i do a /time, it will display the game time. how do i boardcast it in clan chat, alliance chat or party chat? i tried:

#the time now is /time.

but it doesn't work

2: i see macro like :

"mob is focusing on player2"

how to they do that?

THanks.
There are some special commands (like %target ) that will allow you to play variables in macro chat - I'm not sure if %time is one of them or not.
you can only target 1 mob or 1 toon but not at the same time.

for example the macro i was talking about look like this :

"darkmotion is focusing on malineii"

then when another mob is attacking aonther player, it will look like this :

"nameless is focusing on slycutter"
I know people use '[Raid boss name] is targetting %target," with "Raid Boss Name" actually written out in the macro. I'm not sure about other things.
hmm.....
i think it has to be something like this

/target player1
/assist
#player1 is targetting %target

but you have to do a macro for each person you want to show the target of, dont think there is anyway to do a macro that picks 2 peoples names.

it is useful for raid bosses, as you know their name in advance, not too sure how good it is for pvp though.
In party - you can do %party1 (til %party9) is targeting %target.
just select the person or mob then use the macro
/assist
/the dude is targeting %target
