Toggle Macro for Camera Water Collision

[Raenold-argent-dawn]

Hi there!

I’ve wanted to use a single macro for toggling the Water Collision setting for the Camera. Sometimes it’s useful, sometimes it’s infuriating. It’s not very convenient to open the settings and change it every time.

I didn’t really find a single-macro solution for the problem, I’ve used two separate macros for quite some time but now I dove into the API and LUA scripting a little and found a simple solution. I wanted to share it, as it might be useful for some of you.

Water Collision toggle:
/run if(GetCVar(“cameraWaterCollision”) == “0”) then SetCVar(“cameraWaterCollision”, 1) else SetCVar(“cameraWaterCollision”, 0) end

You can make a new macro and just copy and paste this command as is (you may need to replace the " characters). I’ve just put the macro on the action bar and there is my fast toggle.

Take care!

Final iteration with chat message feedback:

/run SetCVar("cameraWaterCollision", 1-GetCVar("cameraWaterCollision")) print("Camera Water Collision: " .. (GetCVar("cameraWaterCollision") == "1" and "Enabled" or "Disabled"))

Master Volume changer macro

Hi there! I though I’d share a simple Macro I wrote that when triggered will change your master volume from 100% to 20% and vice versa. You can modify the macro and change these values of course. I was lazy so I didn’t make variables for easy modification - if you need help, feel free to ask. I assume there are simpler/cleaner ways how you can achieve the same effect (or better) in LUA but it does what it needs to and will suffice for me for now. Any feedback and suggestion is welcome, of cou…

Might want to update it to the new functions

/run local k = "cameraWaterCollision" C_CVar.SetCVar(k, 1 - C_CVar.GetCVar(k))

Also, if you wrap your code in code tags quotes won’t get smartquoted.

With current state output:

/run local k,v = "cameraWaterCollision" v = C_CVar.GetCVar(k) C_CVar.SetCVar(k, 1 - v) print("Water Collision " .. (v == "1" and "Disabled" or "Enabled"))

You can trim a lot of the whitespace if you need to free up more chars for different commands etc.

I like the [1 - current value solution], nice way to get rid of the if statement.
Thanks!
