Macro question

[Cat41717]

OK, for roleplaying purposes, I'm trying to do a costume change with emotes, and a toggle on my power tray. 

 

I have this so far: /macroimage "Inspiration_Damage_Lvl_3" "APS" "emote lightning$$Angel Power -- START!!$$powerexec_name domination cce 0 ccrainbow$$cce 1 cclightning"

 

But it's not quite working. 

 

Can an expert fix this? Additionally, when toggling it a second time, is it possible to add a second quote? 

 

The scenario is simply this: The character starts as a normal-ish looking person, activates 'Angel power' and changes to the costume version. Ideally, I can push the same toggle to change back to the original form, saving space on my power tray. 

 

All help is of course, appreciated.

Yeah, that would be nice to have. Had no idea this was even possible. Well beyond my IQ score to figure out lol  g/l

Is the point to do this costume change in conjunction with activating Domination? Because that's not possible, at least not in a single macro. 

If you do it as a bind instead of a macro you can have it do something different with each key press by having it load a different bind file every time it's run, but that's not possible with a macro.

Actually, I'm not sure how the domination thing got in there. I'm obviously struggling trying to learn macros. By all means, alter it as you see fit.

/macroimage "Inspiration_Endurance_Lvl_3" "APE" "cce 1 cclightning"

This is great! I thank you with full sincerity. Now, can it be combined into 1 toggle/icon? I know its possible, and that's the part that has me most confounded.

There are some commands you can do that with, this isn't one of them. You can do it as a bind to make it one keypress, but not as a macro.

Yes, but not with the macro_image command. You'd need to use the  macroslot command, and then prepare a text file to load in for each action you'd like to happen on each click. Follow this

The only snag is that costume changes require 15 seconds before the costume can be changed again, so you'll need to make sure you time your clicks a little.
