Gear Sets Vs Gear Swap

Gear Sets vs Gear Swap
for me what happens is in laggy situations sometimes bp delay gear lags and I BP in that screwing my dmg, So I just removed the entire bp delay in the lua and now it just goes Idle >> midcast BP gear >> idle and for 1second bp delay sacrifice it seems to have fixed that issue.
However, when I AFAC I unload gearswap and use an equipset to throw on Full BP gear, then when AFAC is done I hit a macro and load gearswap again. But thats just me. for conduit you should be locked in set and not swapping at all.
More and more in events like dynamis and omen i've been having issues with gearswap lagging and missing swaps. It'll be really really apparent with a pact like thunderspark doing 3k opposed to 10k in omen. if you see that situation alot, i'd suggest swapping to ingame macros/gearsets or looking into a gearswap that works. Any SMN gearswap need to check precast and aftercast functions to query pet_midaction.
I have this at the top of both precast and aftercast function in my lua. Code
if midaction() or pet_midaction() then
return
end
if buffactive['Astral Conduit'] then
return
end
Basically it prevent precast and aftercast to do anything (leaving you in midcast gear) if you have AC up, and / or if your pet is mid BP (if you are spamming the BP macro). Haven't got any issues with it so far. You can check //gs showswaps to validate the behavior. Make three macro, one to get into bp set, one to actually Bp, then one to get into idle set after you done AcAF bping.
Using scripts:
Code input /equipset precast set; wait .3; input /pet voltstrike; input /equipset midcast set; wait 2.7; input /equipset avatar idle set; That should be enough to equip your precast before your voltstrike and knock an entire second off your macro. Code /equipset 1 (precast) /pet "Volt Strike" <t> <wait .5> /equipset 2 <wait 2> (rage) /equipset 3 (perp) using ingame macros there should be no reason to have a wait before issuing the pact, only the shortest delay possible after to swap to rage gear. Asura.Yygdrasil said: » I guess my biggest question is how to set up my macros after I go to the gear set system. No matter how I look at it, I’m sacrificing a second at the beginning of every BP in order to swap from my idle set to my precast set... give the system the requisite 1 second of /wait and THEN macroing in my midcast set. /macro on precast set /wait 1 /pet volt strike /macro on midcast Set /wait 3 /macro on Avatar Idle set Is that the only way? Or is there another way to do it without sacrificing that 1 second of wait? Are you using dgvoodoo? Whats your fps like I don't think you need to worry about that </wait 1>.
/equipset # /pet Volte Strike <t> /equipset # /wait 3 /equipset # This should work fine unless you're dealing with serious lag. If you do want to add the wait time just in case, you can always drop it down to </wait .5> or even </wait .2> maybe. Just play around with it to get it right. If you're using in game macros there is only whole numbers. Easy to test. SE even stated this years ago but I have long forgotten where.
/p hi <wait .1> /p hi <wait .1> /p hi <wait .1> /p hi <wait .1> They will come in 1 second between. If you put 0 or even 0.1 they'll come in super fast. Same with 1 vs 1.9 they are both only 1 second apart. You do need a wait in between two /equipset lines, even if there is a JA in between. You can't equip two gearsets like that. It has to be
/equipset # <wait 1> /pet Volte Strike <t> /equipset # Otherwise you will get a failure on the second equipset

It doesn't do anything for in-game macros different than /wait 1

Can it go below 1s? Pantafernando said: » And for scripts waits? Can it go below 1s?

BP rage activation timer in most instances, except for speed critical pacts like shock squall, the delay from command to land is 1.25s, so a wait 1 after issuing pact is short enough to put you in rage gear with only another wait 1 needed to put you back into perp after. http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/46562-YOU-BROKE-SMN..../page3?highlight=%26lt%3Bwait%26gt%3B In Frod's example there is there a way if I want to still use GS to do something like
/console gs c equip sets.precastbpdelay /console gs c pact bp70 <wait 1> /console gs c (something to initiate bprage gear logic from lua) /console gs c (something to initiate idle logic from lua) ? I use to use this all the time.
I have been gone for about a year. Been back a month now with a new PC [DL the game + windower4] For the life of me I can't get the /console gs c pact bp70 <wait 1> to work for me. I'm I missing a plugin or addon to make this work? This is something I was meaning to make for Frod ages ago, and at the time I just didn't know how. To prevent GS from using your precast gear when you have Apogee, or Astral Conduit up, you use the following.
Code function job_precast(spell, action, spellMap, eventArgs) if (buffactive['Apogee'] or buffactive['Astral Conduit']) and (spell.skill ~= 'Summoning Magic' and spell.skill ~= 'Enfeebling Magic' and spell.skill ~= 'Healing Magic') then eventArgs.handled = true end return end Edit: There is no reason GearSwap would call idle or melee set other than when your pet is not midaction, so the arguments I posted other than the one above should be unnecessary. shubb1282 said: » In Frod's example there is there a way if I want to still use GS to do something like /console gs c equip sets.precastbpdelay /console gs c pact bp70 <wait 1> /console gs c (something to initiate bprage gear logic from lua) /console gs c (something to initiate idle logic from lua) ? https://pastebin.com/Fa5PtueC The core of the logic is around line 678. Also, in order to make it work, I had to allow you to swap into BP gear through self_command, and that logic is around line 834. I suspect that's the main piece you're missing. Basically when your midcast fires for the BP, it queues up a self_command for half a second later to feed the name of the BP back into self_command and tell it which BP to equip gear for (for example "gs c EquipBP Volt Strike"). |
