[Hunter][Ability] Steady Shot macro does not work

[Sethzer]

in TBC retail most hunters used a macro to maximize and to prevent prevent steady shot clipping auto shot. This macro looked something like this (with multiple variations possible)

showtooltip Steady Shot

/cast !Auto Shot /cast [target=pettarget, exists] Kill command /cast [target=pettarget, exists] Lightning Breath /cast Steady Shot

However when using this the character gets stuck after the steady shot and you must wait before pushing it so it can fire the auto shot automatically. This breaks the use of this macro and makes it useless. This macro worked flawless on retail until patch 3.0.2 came before WotLK launch which changed steady shot to not clip or hold back autoshot.

think its the /cast !Auto Shot part that bugs it. someone reported that the "!" script didint work so any macro with "!" prob wont work

[Sethzer]

still does not work properly. After casting the steady shot and spamming the macro often the player will get "stuck" and bug out unless you change target or de-target with the error message "interrupted" coming in alot. I have tried with a castsequence line with both a "reset=2.5" (which is my speed on char tab) and without and it still bugs out often.

I'm getting the same, getting stuck ALOT on animation between casts. It's kinda annoying and makes me lose around 30% dps with my bow. Have to move, switch target or use an instant cast inbetween to get out of it. I've already reported this issue way back aswell: https://github.com/FeenixServerProject/Archangel_2.4.3_Bugtracker/issues/123

I know this isn't exactly going to be the highest on developers minds but this is very annoying, most noticeably because this macro keeps your dps up even through the lag at peak times.

It appears that any macro's with more than one /cast refuse to work, even a CD macro with two CD's must be clicked twice, because the server will not allow both to action together so its a bigger issue then just this macro.

For example

/cast Rapid Fire /cast Bestial Wrath

Sorry little more to add -

Which is partly why the macro will not work, ever without '!' because every time you are clicking/pressing the button it moves to the next cast, will never do them simultaneously.

For macro below

/cast Auto Shot /cast Steady Shot

Press one casts Auto Shot Press two casts Steady Shot Press three interrupts Steady and attempts to cast Auto Shot but realizes swing time still in progress Press four attempts to cast Steady Shot Press five then interrupts Steady Shot as Auto Shot is now available.

Now the '!' is needed to help cast Auto Shot at the same time however if we can fix the above it will allow CD macros and such for all classes, and perhaps lead to a fix for '!'.

Same

try this.. #showtooltip Steady Shot /castsequence reset=# Steady Shot, !!Auto Shot /cast [target=pettarget, exists] Kill command /petattack

Do not add Lightning Breath it will bug your pet out and it wont move. Just keep the ability toggled in spell book and petactionbar.
