| 23:17.02 | seebs | Meanwhile, I want stuff like /castsequence and keyboard modifier conditionals, and can't have it. (There's keyboard modifiers, except there's no "nomod" modifier. |
| 23:17.04 | seebs | ) |
| 23:17.16 | seebs | Honestly, adding nomod to the modifier list would solve like 90% of my problem. |
| 23:17.49 | seebs | And the other part may have been fixed long since; back in the day, you couldn't do /cast player.pet Spell in a macro reliably. I think the fix to handle those identifiers may have solved that. |
| 23:18.08 | seebs | ... Of course, the reason I really cared was that necromancers used to have two heals available, and now they don't so it doesn't matter as much. :P |
| 23:19.33 | seebs | Thinking about it more. Having [nomod] in the modifier list for macros would be a HUGE utility/convenience win. The other thing that would help a ton would be if #showtooltip respected mod flags. |
| 23:19.56 | seebs | So you could, say, have a button which cast Spell A with control down and Spell B with control up, and showed the icon/tooltip based on the control key's state. |
| 23:20.54 | ZorbaTHut | yeah, that'd be rather nice |
| 23:21.12 | seebs | I'd guess that [nomod] would be really easy to implement, but #showtooltip would be hard. |
| 23:21.17 | seebs | Man. |
| 23:21.25 | seebs | Shame you guys can't just host on github, I could contribute code. |
| 23:21.37 | seebs | You should pitch that to management. I am sure they will agree that there are no significant risks. |
| 23:21.45 | ZorbaTHut | I suspect our investors would have a few objections ;) |
| 23:23.30 | starlon | lol |
| 23:24.11 | seebs | It always frustrates me that I can't get a part-time job helping out on a project when there's specific stuff I'd like to help on but I don't actually want to do it for a living. |
| 23:24.29 | seebs | I love working on stuff, but there's no way I could handle the games industry as my primary job. |
| 23:24.58 | ZorbaTHut | yeah, the games industry is kind of deadly. You don't want to work here unless you really, really, *really* want to work here. |
| 23:31.54 | seebs | Yeah. And the thing is, I really don't have that much drive for it. But I love kibitzing and tweaking things, and I'm decent at finding the solutions which are only obvious after someone's thought of them. |
