need scripting help please

[Darkwood]

ok guys and gals. im hunting fire mages and weapon fire is raping me. ive heard that you can run a short script to put the affected weapon into a disk whenever weaponfire is cast on it. if this is true i would greatly appreciate it if someone would be kind enough to tell me how this can be done. u2u or posting works. thanks much.

You would need the messaging for when the weapon has been weaponfired.

Something like this

waitfor Your weapon is on fire
put put weapon in my disk

etc...

[Latrinsorm]

start:
waitfor Your <weapon> is struck by the fire mage's cast
again:
put put my <weapon> in <your name> disk
match pause ...wait
match start You put
matchwait

pause:
pause 0.5
goto again

Try that on for size. I personally stick with highlighting the message and a \x drop macro, but if you don't run scripts and feel very confident you'll always have a disk handy, this works too.

or

put prep 511
put cast
put put weap in your disk

[Trouble]

Remember to keep an open spot in your disk for the weapon too.

Do you want to manually initiate the script or run it in the background? The latter seems pretty useless if you are like me and use the ESC key often (which halts scripts).

Anyway what Mistomeer posted will work in general, but for safety I would use a more explicit command like:
put put right in <fill your name> disk

You use the line above for any macro to run it manually.

Personally, I would attach the script to a macro and run it manually with a keypress, then you don't have to worry wether you remembered to start the script and also the ESC I mentioned above isn't an issue.

well i ambush so i cant prep and cast anything of note. so i guees ill give a few of the suggestions a try and let you guys know how it turns out. im not much of a scrpiter other than basic travel scripts but i think i can make it work.
