2 months ago /say (/s) in a macro is restricted and can only be used in a Blizzard /macro. -- Edit yet somehow you got to work. I haven't been able to since TWW
Variable Usage Without Equals Sign: If I omit the equals sign and simply use GSE.V.MyNewVar72() or write GSE.V.MyNewVar72() = true in the macro, it consistently triggers the "Save pending" issue, causing the sequence to freeze and never save.
When this happens go to the Out of Combat Queue on the GSE mini-map icon and delete (just need to click on the entry) the attempt to save that is clogging the queue. It will be the first thing in the list. GSE is a Garbage in - Garbage Out mod. It thinks you know what you are doing at all times and never tests for things, it just tries to do what you tell it.
Without your GSE.lua file - i cant help you. You need to either copy the contents into a comment within three backticks ``` at the beginning and end or rename it to GSE.lua.txt then attach it.

šµ Describe the bug:
There are two issues related to using If blocks with Variables to test my character's race:
Save Pending Issue: When creating a sequence that includes If blocks using Variables, the sequence sometimes freezes and remains stuck on "Save pending," never actually saving the macro. This prevents any further edits or use of the sequence.
Incorrect Value Return: The If block does not evaluate the character's race correctly when using a Variable according to the example in the GSE Wiki. Despite following the correct syntax and setup, the macro always returns the "false" value, resulting in "no" being displayed in the chat, even when the character is a Blood Elf, where it should return "yes."
šµ To reproduce: (Steps to reproduce the behavior)
/gsein the chat.=GSE.V.MyNewVar72()) using Ctrl + C.NEW_SEQUENCE.=GSE.V.MyNewVar72()to replace the= truecondition in the If Block.šµ The error:
There is No Error Massage
šµ Screenshots:
šµ Expected behavior:
I expected that after pressing the key bound to Numpad 1, the macro would evaluate my character's race (Blood Elf) and output "yes" in the chat since my character is indeed a Blood Elf. The function should correctly identify the race and return true, triggering the "yes" response. However, instead of the expected outcome, the macro incorrectly returns "false" and only outputs "no" in the chat.
šµ GSE.lua file:
Gethub do not support that file

šµ Additional context: addition to the steps mentioned above, I've noticed a few more issues:
Initial Save Behavior: When creating a new sequence and saving it for the first time, the sequence might save correctly. However, the result still comes out as "no" instead of "yes".
Variable Usage Without Equals Sign: If I omit the equals sign and simply use
GSE.V.MyNewVar72()or writeGSE.V.MyNewVar72() = truein the macro, it consistently triggers the "Save pending" issue, causing the sequence to freeze and never save.Using Variable in Macro Text: I also tried a different approach by writing the following in the macro text:
This resulted in an error message stating a "bad argument." Unfortunately, I did not copy the exact error message to avoid confusion, but it highlights another issue when attempting to combine variable checks with text output in the macro.
