Little macro help :)

Unread post by Ade70 »

Just a small favour from anyone who is familiar with macros, I have a Bear pet and when i'm fishing i'd like the bear to use it's 'rest' ability (yeah, i'm on rp realm :) )
So is there a way to combine the two, so when i fish he starts sleeping?

Thanks to anyone who can help :)

Completely untested, but try:

#showtooltip Fishing
/castrandom Rest
/cast Fishing

Tested and it works, HOWEVER bear rest only seems to last for a short time, so what happened is:

1) Cast line and bear lies down for a nappy

2) About 2/3 of the way through the Fishing channel before the bobber splashed, bear wakes up and stands

3) Next cast, and bear lies back down

4) Bear gets back up

5) Etc etc

So it looks kind of choppy - basically fishing takes longer than Rest lasts for.

Thanks very much, works really well, a lot of the time the bear wakes up during the 'splash' sound from a catch :) , pity rest doesn't last a few seconds longer, but it's still pretty cool.

Again thanks for the help :!:
