Several things can't work with macro /click LM_Bn

Bad news.

Blizzard has put significant limitation on what LiteMount can do when called from a macro compared to the keybinding, and the following will not work (and possibly never work) that way

  1. unavailable macro
  2. combat macro and the default combat actions
  3. using PreCast spells or PreUse items should be working again, except for in druid forms
  4. restoring druid form should be working again
  5. directly running Script lines from advanced options

It's possible the default combat actions can be done with a combination of OnClick and SecureHandlerWrapScript, but I don't really like the idea of double-maintaining them forever.

The other things can just never work unless Blizzard change it back. Such is life.

Hey,
before Pre-Patch I used LiteMount as part of a Macro Slice in OPie. I followed the issue in WoWUIBugs but I'm still confused what will and what won't work with TWW Release (or Early Access) and the new limited functionality is active in >= 11.0.2.55399.

I don't use any Combat or Unavailable Macro (beside the instant mount setting for Druid's Travel Form) and following Advanced Syntax (I'm aware the PreUse Toy part won't work)

LeaveVehicle
Dismount [nofalling]
CopyTargetsMount
ApplyRules
SwitchFlightStyle [mod:rshift]
IF [mod:shift]
    IF [submerged]
        Limit -SWIM
    ELSEIF [dragonridable][flyable]
        Limit -DRAGONRIDING/FLY
    ELSEIF [floating]
        Limit -SWIM
    END
END
PreUse Prismatic Bauble
SmartMount
IF [falling]
  # Slow Fall, Levitate, Zen Flight, Glide, Flap
  Spell 130, 1706, 125883, 131347, 164862
  # Hearty Dragon Plume, Rocfeather Skyhorn Kite
  Use 182729, 131811
  # Last resort dismount even if falling
  Dismount
END
Macro

Will this work again or is this part of the 'limited probably won't work in the future' part of the change? I'm just not sure if the rest of Advanced syntax will still be supported.

Thanks :)

I'm not expecting any more changes for TWW release, all the limitations were applied in the 11.0.0 pre-patch.

So anything that's working right now will continue to work (until Blizzard change their minds about what to allow again).

Other than the PreUse everything there will continue to work for the foreseeable future.

I think I've restored everything I can now, the others are fundamentally macros by design and can never work.

If there's better things that could or should happen in combat I'll leave them to #268. I don't think there is any point replacing the macros with a way of running lua directly.
