I'll look into that, doable it should be, but with "action1 followed by action2 every time" the first thing that came into my mind were sequences.

PS: It took my like 30 minutes to get the sequence working, LF people volunteering for documentation :S ;D

I have been downloading MinGW, Qt-libs, and Qt-SDK to experiment with different code building approaches ahead of my re-write of HowToBuild wiki, so I'll leave the action-syntax to somebody else!

actions+=/moonfire,if=buff.lunar_eclipse.up&buff.natures_grace.up&!ticking
actions+=/insect_swarm,if=buff.lunar_eclipse.up&buff.natures_grace.cooldown_remains=0

actions+=/insect_swarm,if=buff.solar_eclipse.up&buff.natures_grace.up&!ticking
actions+=/sunfire,if=buff.solar_eclipse.up&buff.natures_grace.cooldown_remains=0

It gets trickier if you refresh them when they've fallen off, then you'll need some checks for duration which etc. :s

How would you incorporate the initial application of the dots as the fight starts? It seems that would throw a wrench into the works as much as the refreshing them when they have fallen off would.

Is there a way to ask if Nature's Grace is off cooldown? That would make it easier to solve Latas's problem. For a "normal" rotation, NG is off cooldown at the start of the fight, and just after an Eclipse proc.

Perhaps something like:

/moonfire,if=!ticking&time<12
/insect_swarmif=!ticking&time<12

buff.natures_grace.cooldown_remains

For solar it is very easy, because moonfire changes to sunfire and sunfire can't be up at that time, but with lunar it gets trickier

Importing a CharDev model seems not working. I have this error "# Unable to generate profile from: http://chardev.org/?planner".

I assume you created a profile from scratch inside SimC? Make sure you log in with a CharDev account so that you can save the profile. When that happens, the URL will change such that "?planner" becomes "?profile=SOME_NUMBER".

The next version of SimC will include more documentation for CharDev. (We are currently fighting with utf8 support which is delaying the next release.)

Deumus · 01/21/11, 9:16 AM

Yes, it's the problem, thanks! I juste make a profile without an account!

Another problem:

When I switch to "PTR" in Version, the program crash after the Import, when I press to Simulate! I have a Paladin Retribution

Please open an Issue containing your region/server/name. However, you should know that when talent trees move around on the PTR your encoded talent string (bunch of 1s and 0s) is no longer relevant. The version about to be released works around this problem by providing a third option to Live/PTR called Both that works around this problem.

dedmonwakeen · 01/21/11, 10:32 AM

SimC v26 Beta available for download

Key Updates:
(1) Includes the very latest PTR changes
(2) Version global option (previously just Live/PTR) now includes third option "Both" that will simulate both you and your Evil Twin who lives on the PTR. Note that this mechanic can work around even cases when the talent trees get reshaped between Live and PTR.
(3) More documentation on the Welcome page and formatted in a fashion that makes it easy to read.
(4) Warrior BiS profile overhaul to match work done in EJ thread
(5) Yet more painful work to get weird characters displayed correctly. Thanks, Reia!!!

I havent seen anything about changes to expertise in the notes so it suprised me that my exp stat weight took a sharp jump from 0.47 to 0.60 when changing from version 25 to 26 and running the sim on the same data set (i.e my profile using smf fury).

Since this is a pretty major jump for a normalized stat weight it is obvious that something have happened and with such a big change not being advertised i worried that it may be a bug.

SVN update info can be found here: sc_warrior.cpp - simulationcraft - Project Hosting on Google Code

In the meantime I will dig around and make sure we did not introduce a bug. I will assume we can use Brissa to test.
