Does "call" in automacros not support parameters?

[forbbs]

I tried:

Code: Select all

macro myMacro {
 log Parameter 1 is $.param1
}
automacro bala {
	<some conditions>
	call myMacro -- this1st
}

When automacro bala is triggered,it print "Parameter 1 is".Why?

[Raider]

Because the automacro calls the macro myMacro which logs that message?

[forbbs]

I considered it will print "Parameter 1 is this1st".

Hm, you're right, what the version of OpenKore you are using? If it's not the latest please update.

[forbbs]

I see.Thank you.

Code: Select all

automacro changeLocation{
	pm Sample Check (.*)
	call checkmaster -- $.lastpm $.lastMatch1
}

macro checkmaster {
	log Person who pm is: $.param1
	log That Person said: $.param2
}

i tried this and when checkmaster is called... $.param1 and $.param2 has no value... anyone know why?

IIRC macro plugins only supports parameters while using "macro <macroname>" in console. It should be implemented in macro calls too, I'll do it if I have some spare time.

If possible, please allow usage of separators which would allow it to accept multi-worded parameters. AFAICR, the plugin treats each word as a parameter which somehow limits it usage.

Code: Select all

macro invokepm {
do pm $.param1 Warp and meet me at $.map $.pos
}

If I type in console:

Code: Select all

macro invokepm -- Jelly Bean

This will not work if I intend to pm the player "Jelly Bean" to trigger its automacro:

Code: Select all

automacro warpandmeet {
console /Warp and meet me at (.*) (\d+) (\d+)/
timeout 1
overrideAI 1
call {
do c @warp $.lastMatch1 $.lastMatch2 $.lastMatch3
}
}

I hope something like this would work:

Code: Select all

macro invokepm -- Jelly Bean, some-other-parameters, and still some others

I like this idea.. this will make macro more dynamic.. and also a bit user friendly....

@iMikeLance
Therefore at the mean time all we can do for now is to use something like this.
Instead of calling the call function. we can use the do command.
for example

Code: Select all

do macro nameOfMacro -- param1 param2 etc

.
am i right? or there is another way?

In order to prevent some bugs, macro plugin won't allow you to use "do macro" inside macros.
