/script x,y=GetPlayerMapPosition("player");
SendChatMessage(string.format("Need help at %s! (%d, %d)",GetMinimapZoneText(),1+x*100,1+y*100),"RAID");


This will let you request help anywhere in the Arathi Basin game and it will say "Need Help at Blacksmith".


/script x,y=GetPlayerMapPosition("player");
SendChatMessage(string.format("%s is under control!",GetMinimapZoneText(),1+x*100,1+y*100),"RAID");


This will let you notify your allies when the area is secured!

There shouldn't be any newlines in.

If I read the code correctly it should work anywhere. It simply sends coordinates and the current location (above the minimap) to the raid channel.

i get the same problem, it just spams lines from the codes, no coordinates or anything

Click "quote message" and copy the stuff from inside the [code] tags.

There is no newlines in the macro, but since phpBB doesn't like big bloated [code] chunks it simply wraps the lines => creating newlines.

Do not call up that which you cannot put on hold.

found out what was making it not work, between the ; and Sendchatmessage,
wow puts a space there, delete that space and it should work, if it doesn't, i don't know what the hell i did.

Is it possible tou have this send message to General Channel rather than RAID. I can get it to post to GUILD, but that does not help in AB. There are normally more than one raid group in any given battle. Thanks for any input....im a noob macro guy.

Yep.

Change "RAID" to "CHANNEL", nil, 1
