Only properly switched back to Jester yesterday, so still sorting these things out.
function throwjuggled(queue) local venoms = venomprios() send("setalias jug throw dagger at " .. target .. " " .. venoms[1]) if queue then send("queue addclear eqbal jug") end endYour alias/keybinding calls throwjuggled(true). On cure lines, you call throwjuggled(false). It always updates the "jug" in-game alias to the correct command (the commands in the code above might not be correct, fix those). If queue is true, it will queue it. If queue is not true, it only updates the alias; if the command is queued from you hitting your keybinding, it runs the new command when you recover balance, otherwise you don't do any actual actions (avoids you throwing daggers when you don't want to just because they cured something).
EDIT: Ideally your affliction tracker would raise events when afflictions are gained or cured, so you don't have to update the actual triggers and instead just use an event handler to call that function.

It looks like the code would work, depending on when you're calling it. However, there's an easier way to do it. If you look at the two functions you're defining there, the only difference between them is the "local venoms" line, so a lot of it is repeated (repeating code is usually bad). You could just declare the function a single time and check which function to call to get the venoms inside that, like this:
function throwjuggled(queue) local venoms if wanttolockslow then venoms = venomprioslow() else venoms = venompriosrift() end send("setalias 1 throw axe at " .. target .. " " .. venoms[1]) if queue and juggling == true then send("queue addclear eqbal 1") elseif queue and juggling == nil then send("unwield left;queue addclear eqbal juggle axe axe axe;1") end endThat will make it easier to make changes down the line - such as adding additional venom combinations - as you only need to do it in one place rather than several. Then you can have two keybindings/aliases/whatever that would look something like this:
So I wrote all of that, and it would work, but there's another way you could do this which may be even easier (but it's less obvious to beginners). Functions in Lua are stored as variables just like everything else, so there's a variable called 'throwjuggled' which points to your function. So just like you can have multiple references to the same table by doing something like a = {1, 2, 3}, b = a, you can have multiple references to the same function. If you introduce a third variable, let's call it juggledvenomfn, then your macros can just update that variable to reference one of your two functions to actually get a list of venoms.
Then your throwjuggled function would look like this:
function throwjuggled(queue) local venoms = juggledvenomfn() -- execute whatever function is referenced by juggledvenomfn and store the value returned in the local venoms variable send("setalias 1 throw axe at " .. target .. " " .. venoms[1]) if queue and juggling == true then send("queue addclear eqbal 1") elseif queue and juggling == nil then send("unwield left;queue addclear eqbal juggle axe axe axe;1") end endThis is the easiest option for adding additional venom combinations down the line, as you just create a new function to get the venoms, create a new keybinding or alias that sets juggledvenomfn to a reference to that new function, and call throwjuggled(true). No need to update the other macros, worry about making sure all of the mutually exclusive variables are set correctly, etc. Just make sure you're initialising juggledvenomfn to one of those two functions in a script (the same way you do in the macro, e.g. juggledvenomfn = venomprioslow), otherwise you'll get a load of errors when you see people cure if you haven't hit either of your macros yet and it runs the throwjuggled function.

I haven't been able to find a syntax that would make that work anywhere, all I can do is
tempTimer(5, [[ echo("this is timer #1 going off 3s after being made\n") ]])
but that doesn't help me in keeping track of anything is I can't trigger that into a changing number...
and while I'm at it, this trigger isn't working properly either, for harvesting
^A (.*) ((\w+))$
to send("harvest " ..matches[2])
how can I isolate the (\w+) to be captured in this case? apparently it's just capturing everything after "A" with the (.*) and not letting me pick up the word in the parantheses anymore..
(.*) matches anything. \w+ matches words. \d+ matches numbers. If you can, use \w+ or \d+, since .* matches literally everything. Also, you have an unneeded second set of parenthesis around your \w+, and you're only matching .* right now, not \w+.
^A (.*) (\w+)$
send("harvest "..matches[2]) <- matches[2] is just your .*. matches[3] would be \w+.
A purple coneflower (echinacea)
and the word in the parantheses is what I want to capture, that's why the doubles. using matches[3] somehow captures the moderate, spare, etc. bit at the end of that trigger line, because (.*) apparently included that as well..
I don't know the exact line you need to trigger off of or that would make it easier, but, it sounds like you just need to capture "coneflower" in that example.
If that's the case, you could just do..
^A \w+ (\w+)$
send("harvest "..matches[2])
Since the first \w+ isn't in parenthesis, it doesn't get built as a "matches" at all.
^A (?:.+) \((\w+)\)$
The ?: means non-capturing, so it won't create an entry in the matches table. That means that matches[2] will be the bit between the brackets in the text, which is what you really care about. You could also just use .+ without any brackets at all, but this way I got to introduce non-capturing groups, which have some nice uses (e.g. (?:him|her) for matching either him or her without adding an unnecessary entry into the matches table).

The first thing you need to know is that everything in the matches table is a string. Even if you use (\d+) to pull out a number, it's the string representation of that number. Depending on what you want to do with it, you may need to convert that string to a number. Lua has a function to do that, it's called tonumber, so you'd do something like: local delay = tonumber(matches[2]). If matches[2] contained the string "5" then delay would now be the number 5. If matches[2] contained something that can't be converted to a number then delay would be nil.
In terms of your code, you'd want to do something like this:
local delay = tonumber(matches[2]) tempTimer(delay, [[echo("This is a timer going off ]] .. delay .. [[ seconds after being made\n.")]])The #1 part is a bit trickier, and it really depends exactly how you want it to work. You could just keep a running total of how many timers you've created - to do this you'd want to make a function that handles the timer creation so you can be sure you're always incrementing - and use that. But if you want the numbers to start from 1 again when you don't currently have any timers running, you'd need to keep track of your timers and reset your incremental counter when the last one finishes. That's non-trivial due to the way that timers work, and probably isn't worth the effort.

^A \w+ \w+ \((\w+)\)$
To match a ( or a ), you need to put a \ in front of it, to make it ignore the special meaning of the ()'s.
Would be a bit easier to see the code 'cause it's not all green anymore.

I'm trying to narrow why this is happening, from the script the variable passed to format that is does not like is 'requestSkillDetails[1]'
That variable's contents are supplied by keneanung.bashing.handleSkillList(), which is the callback for gmcp.Char.Skills.List. Maybe the table schema has changed since the script was last released. I'm having a hard time determining why this is coming back null and throwing errors every login. The bashing still seems to work but the error message is annoying.
that skill list function parses gmcp.Char.Skills.List. In my testing that table shows up as:
Has anyone else seen this error? could you give me a clue for fixing it?
