I've been using the basic //exec scripts to do long chains of brd songs. Is it possible to cancel a script manually midway through, in case a song gets interrupted for whatever reason? I multi box so one at a time isn't usually feasible.
Afaik once a script has been started there is no way to stop it, except terminating the client from which you executed it of course lol.

I can think of a couple of alternative routes to obtain the same through Gearswap but make it stoppable.
It wouldn't exactely be simple though, would require some knowledge of Gearswap.

I'm sure you can do the same with Ashitacast but, again, I'm pretty confident it would require some advanced knowledge.

That's what I was afraid of. I'm not great with gearswap. I might be able to alter something that's vaguely similar, but i cant create it from scratch. I'll google some lua amd maybe see if there's anything useful I can pull out of pouches or the trusts addons. I feel like those two have command chains that are cancelable.
Thanks tho!

When doing long /equip chains in scripts and FFXI drops some, is there any logic as to what it drops more often? For example, at the end or beginning, or is it just random?

For drop you mean some missed command?

Probably it should be a matter of increasing the /wait time between commands. If its too little interval between commands, it will tend to skip more lines. As you increase the waiting between commands, more reliable it gets.

New installer plus Windower on my laptop, I get a ~30 delay between hitting "play" and FFXI actually launching. Is this something that's widespread?

Probably it should be a matter of increasing the /wait time between commands. If its too little interval between commands, it will tend to skip more lines. As you increase the waiting between commands, more reliable it gets.
For example, let's say I call a windower script, and that script is:

input /equip main "something";
input /equip sub "something";

and so on until I have 12-16 equip commands that execute in it. Normally things goes fine and everything swaps, but sometimes it'll miss 1 or 2 of the commands. I was wondering if it was more likely to miss inputs at the top of the script, at the bottom of the script, or if it was just completely random.

The only thing it should ever miss is duplicates, or overwrites.

Aka, 2 Mache earrings

or, mache earring left ear on tp, but right ear on ws, itll *** that up all the time

also, i guess worth mentioning "conflicts" weapons like to screw that one up, staff/grip to club/shield isn't 100%

One little tip/quirk... for duplicate pieces in a set (e.g. 2 Mache Earrings), if you put them right next to each other in a Windower script one of them typically won't equip. However... if you separate them in the script, they WILL work. For example:

Won't work:
Line 1: /input equip head "head armor";
Line 2: /input equip neck "neck armor";
Line 3: /input equip ear1 "Mache Earring";
Line 4: /input equip ear2 "Mache Earring";

WILL work:
Line 1: /input equip ear1 "Mache Earring";
Line 2: /input equip head "head armor";
Line 3: /input equip neck "neck armor";
...
Line 12: /input equip ear2 "Mache Earring";

No, it still misses 1 or 2 pieces on occasion even without doing anything like that.

It shouldn't really but nothing is infallible, even gearswap

I guess I would just watch the gear and see which piece fails the most? Change that slot to something less important.

If it matter, this isn't actually gearswap (though it might run on the same scriping, I dunno), just macro-triggered /consolw exec scripts.

Not directly related but instead of scripting individual pieces you could just script input /equip gearset number. Maybe it can partially fix your problem

If there is a way, it's extremely esoteric and we've never found it. Just gotta keep going and hope for the best.

I'm gonna say no, it doesn't dog, but I'm only like 67% confident in my answer and have no supporting data to qualify my assumption.

Correct. Subtle Blow is only for the TP gained from you hitting it.
Things like souveran schaller +1 or Phorcys schuhs are the items that reduce TP gained from hitting you.

There is no discernible pattern to what will be the next month's rewards. Best you can hope to do is hold your points until ~2 days before they drop when they reveal the next month's rewards.

The login rewards is pretty consistent on a 6 set cycle. Next month should be the abyssea nm items.

This month is login 74, next should be 75
