Teleport Macro Help

Hi! Is there a way I can make a macro to teleport my Singularity to target? I was playing around with it earlier and some how managed to teleport a friend to my Pet instead. Sadly I can't remember how I did it.

the funny thing is that i needed a similar macro for my singularity, but what i wanted to do is teleport it to myself with out having to find it. i wanted this because with my grav/time troller, i was always in the middle of the fight, using wormhole and foldspace to drop mobs on the tank, or myself. but the singularity was always away from the center and i wanted it in the middle of all the action.

 

i thought a simple macro would be easy enough, except it was not. i needed the macro to select the pet and then to TP it to me, with one button. the second part was easy. it was selecting the pet that proved difficult. the problem was that selecting the pet by name worked if the pet was in your LOS (line of sight), if it was being slow and you could not see it, you could not macro it automatically. it took a long time figuring this out and someone smarter than i finally figured it out for me. the petselect will choose the first pet on your pet list (0 is the first) and it does not need LOS, the singularity can be anywhere on the map. so the first click will be to select your first pet, and the second click will be to tp it to yourself.

 

hence, the macro 😎

 

/macro_image "Teleportation_Loyalist" TPsing "pet_select 0$$powexec_location me teleport target"

 

the one limit that i have found with this is with the troller ATO enc bonuses, they spawn temporary pets that occasionally take the number one place, instead of your singularity. but at the start of the fight you will probably not have these. this will only TP to yourself, since your target is the singularity. there are ways to fiddle with the destination, but those take others commands and make things much too complicated, but try this link

 

i hope that helps! 😁

oops, i forgot to answer your question directly... 😄

 

no, you cannot target the singularity and another target to TP to at the same time. one target at a time, hence the reason for the macro that gives a location other than target. 😎

Thank you! This works even better than what I was trying to make!

You can use pet_select_name to get around the ATO thing mentioned.

well, i'll be darned, it does work! we were having problems with line of sight and cross map TPs but this does seem to work correctly, in all instances of testing so far. thank you! 🙂

Hi, some great ideas in this thread.  I've cobbled together macros for my two pets - a stone pet and and dark one.  They work, but take two clicks.  Seems to be that the first click targets the pet, the second click does the teleport to me, or to the mouse pointer waiting for me to click the destination.  Is there a way to make this only one click for target and execute the teleport?  I'm ok with the 2nd set of macros waiting for me to click where I want them.  Finally, is it possible to have something targeted, and select my pet, teleport it to the thing I had targeted, ideally in one click?  Example, have an AV targetted, want to teleport my pet right next to the AV.  Right now I have to use my Stone2Pointer macro, which works, but takes effectively 3 clicks - 1 to target my pet, 1 to execute the teleport command then mouse click to drop it where I target it (which I could mis-target so have to do it all again).  A macro to teleport-this-pet to the AV would rock (pardon my stone pet pun).

Thanks for any help
/macro StonePet "pet_select_name Slap$$powexec_location self teleport target"

/macro Darkpet "pet_select_name Tickle$$powexec_location self teleport target"
/macro Stone2Pointer "pet_select_name Slap$$powexecname teleport target"

/macro Dark2Pointer "pet_select_name Tickle$$powexecname teleport target"

 

Thanks.

 

Edited to add my petname 2 pointer macros.
