Command queue items missing

#1 Post by Beriedir » Mon Dec 23, 2019 4:23 pm

I regularly find when submitting multiple items to the command queue that some of those items never show up.

Here is one example:

I have a macro that contains "cast fireball|t|cast fireball|t|cast fireball|t|cast fireball|t|cast fireball|t". I use this to queue up 5 fireballs at a time.

Here is an example queue output after I've issue my macro above twice and you can see in this example 'cast fireball' twice didn't make the queue:
Your command queue is:

t
cast fireball
t
cast fireball
t
cast fireball
t
cast fireball
t
cast fireball
t
t
cast fireball
t
cast fireball
t
cast fireball
t
t
I see similar results whether it's using an in game macro, a mudlet alias, or simply typing in the commands quicker than my char can use them.

In situations like above the impact is minor, but there are cases where it's more significant, like my macro "hold mana|drink mana" when times that drink mana doesn't register and I'm left unable to cast again until I realize I'm still holding my mana potion. Or important spells don't trigger (like "cast wall of ice").

It's managable, just a minor annoyance. Wanted to make sure to report it though.

This happened to me once, and logging out and back in resolved the issue, for what it's worth.

I've bugged this, but chiming in here.

I frequently have issues when stacking commands too quickly. Most frequently :

cast xxxx; t xxxx - you don't have a spell cast
sweep; stand - doesn't sweep
retreat; volley - doesn't retreat

Most of the retreat errors occur when an opponent has just advanced on me.

The only queueing issue I remember having before the 16th patch was retreat sometimes not executing when timed too close to the rapid fire has ended message.
