Scripting help

[appleuser]

I'm trying to tweak an existing script to auto target a spawning object. Trouble is its name changes...

This seems to be the code for targeting something:

Target.Name.Equal

Is there an alternative to equal so you can make it target something including a specific word?

Reading through the Lavishscript wiki I've found this string but still need help

%\${Target}sample text here%.

Thanks in advance, this is the first time I've tried to edit code

Well, if it is something simple you can just use eq2execute /tar *whatever you want to target*

Just make a phone book of all the possible names, or preferably, find some common part to each name and just hit that. Can you be more specific on what you are trying to target? Maybe we can help more.

It's the tombstones that pop during Oligar HM that cause the potency debuff.

Iirc they are called Playername's Tombstone.

It's not a big deal, just thought it might make them easier to spot when they spawn as they are a pain in the ass to see.

I wasn't familiar with eq2execute at all. So I guess I could easily do as you suggest and eq2execute /tar tombstone

${Target.Name.Find[INSERT NAME]}

What does targeting the tombstones do..?

You have to cure curse on each tombstone as they spawn to prevent the potency debuff. The problem is that the tombstone doesn't despawn right away after curing so if you hit your button again, you'll likely target the same tombstone and not any new ones that spawn.

So you target the tombstone and cure curse the tombstone?

How is it this many months and no one has told me about this! lol lol.

If I get time I'll add it into Ogrebot... Make no promises when that'll be

I'm certainly not an expert on the encounter, but curing each tombstone is the start. eq-raiders.com mentions moving 10m away after curing.

Wow, really? News to me but certainly going to try this tonight

I just wanted an auto target as the things are so hard to see. I can't get them to show on radar either.

I wasn't aware that you could cure the tombstone tbh, I thought it was just a cue to get the fuck away or you get the potency debuff.
