I'm working on a script that interacts with pets and such but having a problem telling if a bonded pet is alive or dead. I can check the #finddist / #findrep and such but can anyone think of a quick way to determine if the pet is a ghost or not? I realize I can do this with Health bars and such, but scanning for life on a health bar isn't particularly quick. Perhaps some skill or item that's quick to use that might give a useful journal msg (easily scannable...--Journal Sub THX TM!) and such ??
Exampe.. Say I want a script that will Target any opposing Faction mount / Dreadmare in range with whatever spell I have a cursor up for... I'm just looking for an easy way to tell if the mounts already dead or not...
THX.

Does #findcol do the trick? Since it's a greyish color it may change the find color value.
-
Hmm... that's a good idea. I totally forgot about #findcol ... I've never really used it.
*tries it*
Apparently it returns 0 reguardless of alive / ghost ... It actually returns numbers and such for my runebooks / weapons but no luck with pets...
I'll have to think about it some more.

The only other thing I can think of is to pull the gump and see if the hits are at zero. Otherwise, the journal scan idea is a good way to go because you'll get different spam by resurrecting a dead vs. live pet. But it requires you to do it once on anything.
-
BINGO...
Animal lore... Very quick Skill Re-Use Timer and returns something about Not being useful on Spirits if the Target is a ghost...
-Animal lore Target
-Check for Journal Msg Result of Spirit Msg. #true / #false etc..
-Proceed accordingly
Hmm... I think that would work. I'll have to play with it and check the speed etc.
Thx all...

Ah yes, great idea!
-
KalOCR can do it... but you'd need to keep the window visible for the OCR to work.
Lore you can do it anytime.

Lore/Journal Scan is definitely the way to go here. As soon as I saw the title I knew the answer =P (Mainly cuz I was trying to make a "Guild Bot" script that would sit in a house, rez people, rez pets, gate people, etc. and this was the method I was using for finding dead pets!)

Sadly, I never did finish it. It was in bits and pieces when I got a new comp and sold my old laptop and unfortunately a few chunks disappeared when transferring everything. I still have some bits of it, but not enough time to put it all together. I've been trying to keep up maintaining my other scripts and writing a few minors ones here or there for guildmates, but not really any time to do major projects (other than the Imbueing Trainer I'm currently working on). If someone such as yourself wanted to take the project on, I can give you some guidance and some script snippets (though it'd probably be easier to start from scratch) so that we could get it up and running. Just let me know!
