I cant seem to get the triggers for this correct.

I want a weak aura to /y omg <player name> is down! whenever a player in raid dies.

I currently have this.

The trigger looks fine. There's Chat Message options in Actions

spiral mirage Dec 10, 2024, 1:28 PM

#

I have other WAs that the chat message in options works just fine.

For this one however I feel I have tried every combination of %n and I believe the tooltip also said 1.%n neither work. Even removing the player name for testing would have expected some chat message but nothing.

That is why I suspected the trigger was not working.

#

should be %1.n not 1.%n

#

also are you testing inside an instance? remember /s and /y can't send messages in the open world

spiral mirage Dec 10, 2024, 2:21 PM

#

Yes, inside an instance.

Share you aura if you want more specific help

spiral mirage Dec 10, 2024, 2:26 PM

#

Yeah, absolutely. I will share in a bit once I am back on my PC. Honestly when first making this I thought I would be done in 2 minutes this in theory should be way more simple than others I have made.

royal verge Dec 10, 2024, 2:26 PM

#

yeah should be pretty simple

#

Found a low level to go die in ragefire chasm for me. The issue is now that the name doesnt actually show up in the /y it is just blank like this.

WeakAuras doesn't show anything by default, it's just the framework that lets you import or create "Auras" to display things. If you're having an issue with an Aura, and/or want opinions on it, then you need to share the specific Aura. The best way to do this is to link it through https://wago.io/.

If you only imported the aura, you may right click the aura in-game and select Copy URL and paste it here. If you have modified the aura or created your own, you may instead select Export to string... and upload the string to https://wago.io/. This does not require an account.
You can now paste the import string directly into Discord (with no other text, only the string) and a bot will import it for you and link the wago.

I probably want to use %sourceName or %destName. Whichever has the character name in the CLEU event. You can check which on the wiki

#

!cleu

uncut quailBOT Dec 10, 2024, 2:57 PM

#

https://warcraft.wiki.gg/wiki/COMBAT_LOG_EVENT

function(event, timestamp, subEvent, hideCaster, sourceGUID, sourceName, sourceFlags, sourceRaidFlags, destGUID, destName, destFlags, destRaidFlags, ...)

You can use this Aura, https://wago.io/CLEU-IN-ETRACE (works fine in all game versions, not just retail), to add the detailed info into the Etrace tool.
For more info on Events and Etrace see #pins message

Omg hes down!

Wago.io is a database of sharable World of Warcraft addon elements

#

you wrote N

#

its not N

spiral mirage Dec 10, 2024, 4:01 PM

#

so then what is it? Is it one of those ones from the aurabot post at 9:57? I thought N was just a return off of the trigger.

#

my guess is on sourceName but I can use that trace to run that down if that is the correct path.

vestal hollow Dec 10, 2024, 4:08 PM

#

if you use %1.n as a text replacement, that symbolises name

#

if you're using combatlog for death, the unit that dies is the destination unit, the source is what killed it

spiral mirage Dec 10, 2024, 4:11 PM

#

right so if I am following the line in the /y should be "omg %destName is down!"? If wow was up right now I could go try and test.

I guess %1.n in this case if it return name that is just nothing since its not a paramater.

vestal hollow Dec 10, 2024, 4:12 PM

#

I always make it a practice to use the trigger number included in my text replacements

#

I'm not sure if it's necessary at all times, or if it's bad at other, but it hasn't failed me yet

#

you would also need to probably change the trigger to include destination affiliation

#

instead of source affiliation

spiral mirage Dec 10, 2024, 4:14 PM

#

%1.destName then is the current plan to try.

I think the affiliation works it does cause my character to /y when someone dies in an instance. Its just not saying the players name.

tough sapphire Dec 10, 2024, 4:15 PM

#

mouseover the textbox. it tells you the options

spiral mirage Dec 10, 2024, 5:48 PM

#

%1.destName was the answer. Got it to work on retail while classic servers down. Assuming it works the same there. Appreciate the help.
