Is this macro allowed ?
Hello there !
I'm currently creating a small .ahk file for some helpful macros in PoE. I already saw that macros for /remaining, /hideout or /itemlevel were allowed, but now I wanna know if those kind of macros are : CastAura1() { BlockInput On Click 1660, 1045 Click 1575, 770 Send {r} BlockInput Off return } It simply cast an aura not present directly on my skill bar. I have 3 of these binded on F5, F6 and F7 so I can cast my 3 auras faster than switching by clicking one by one (yes I'm lazy, I know). Thanks for the info ! Last bumped on Aug 21, 2016, 10:05:14 AM

I remember being told at some point that a macro which moved the mouse and then used a skill counted as more than one action.
However, Chris in this post: " Specifically says that it is OK to have a macro which just casts an Aura. I think according to Chris' post your macro would be fine. Face it, all of your suggestions are worse than this idea:

your macro does multiple actions because of the 2 mouse clicks and an additional key press.
they only allow macros that do a single action. like one key press. or a single string which is sent as keyboard input) i would definitely ask ggg support before using it (it's most likely not allowed). especially the 2 clicks with no timeout between them are easily detectable by the client as coming from a script. age and treachery will triumph over youth and skill!

Got an answer from the support !
" So it is not allowed. Good to know :) So I don't really know what chris mentioned by "casting an aura" in his post :3 Last edited by KingKazma#3282 on Aug 19, 2016, 4:15:58 AM

" their terms of use. 2 things are important here: they say no bots and not modify their client. automated software is the term they use. they cannot ban you for using software to improve the behaviour of your mouse. you only modify how your hardware works. the serverside action you do is activating one skill which is one action. this person just gave you a negative answer because they weren't sure. i asked them a general question and a guy said this to me: "there is no mentioning of having several hardware inputs per button press. (a logout script just goes esc+click. that's several hardware inputs) however using more than one aura with the same button press is automated(several serverside actions). even if you press the same button several times (pressing a buttong and having different results every time you press {using if/else funcions in a script}is considered having AI/a bot) but if you have exactly one skill for every button you are good to go.

" every response about allowed script actions i read from ggg is regarding client side actions. like: - sending one mouse click to the client on keypress - sending one string to the game client's keyboard input on keypress - sending "alt+f4" to the game client's exe on keypress age and treachery will triumph over youth and skill!
