Problem with button spamming

GSE: Troubleshooting
1

I dont know much about add on programming, but would it be possible to add an option that reads the GCD of the character and limits going to the next spell until the GCD is up, so as to prevent accidental button spam?

It would be much better for me if it didn’t switch to the other without using Spell.

like other dps helpers, hekili or maxdps or ovale.

I couldn’t find such an option in GSE. Is there a place I missed?

Thanks.

Yes it’s called a pause block. Add one after each of your action block and set it to pause for the GCD. You will also need to set the Milliseconds you are spamming the macro at in GSE Options under external timing.

(Also this will spam at the same speed even if your haste changes for things like bloodlust - it can’t update the speed I’m combat - this is a WoW limitation - the way that you can overcome this is to have a duplicate of your macro that has actual ms settings rather than the gcd that you can swap to for lust bursting)

I tried this macro but it still changing icons before the gcd up my friend…

How can i do it?

Check your options. If your spamming at 250ms in AHK for example you need to make sure that the GSE option for external timing is also 250ms. If these settings both inside the game and outside the game don’t match then the math won’t work.

Thanks for you answer T

Is it possible to do conditional pause blocks? If not, is there a way to make sequences with failed casts still work?

For example:
/cast Fire Blast
/cast Fireball
/cast Combustion

Without adding pause blocks, it’ll always skip Fireball due to the GCD.

So if I add pause blocks:

/cast Fire Blast
Pause
/cast Fireball
/cast Combustion

But if Fire Blast is on cooldown, it’ll still do the Pause. Is there a way for it to do: if Fire Blast is skipped, also skip the Pause.

Otherwise there doesn’t seem to be a way for me to create the cast sequence button spam macro that I want.

Or you write your macro with the expectation that it will skip fireball and account for that.

You can’t do conditional anything , once combat starts your macro is set in stone and cant be changed till combat finishes.

You can however set the pause block to wait the gcd in its drop down
