target enemy arena/world

HI, I want a macro that /targetenemyplayer [in arena] and /targetenemy [outside arena] ; to replace my tab keybind. As far as I know there is no [arena] conditional, but maybe you can find a way to help me. Thanks!

I don't play arena, but there is @arena1, @arena2, and @arena3. I haven't tested this, but could you check if exists @arena1 with /targetenemyplayer? If it doesn't exist, then /targetenemy? It may be too cludgy, but worth a try.

Good luck!

I'll need to test it when the macro cannot find an arena memeber, but otherwise it works so thank you !

As JDoubleU00 said you can use this in a macro:

Code:

/targetenemyplayer [@arena1, exists]

/targetenemy [@arena1, noexists]

If you don't want to waste a macro slot, you could make a small addon instead:

Code:

local header = CreateFrame('Frame', nil, nil, 'SecureHandlerStateTemplate')

header:SetAttribute('unit', 'arena1')

header:SetAttribute("_onstate-unitexists", "self:SetBinding(nil, 'TAB', newstate and 'TARGETNEARESTENEMYPLAYER' or 'TARGETNEARESTENEMY')")

RegisterUnitWatch(header, true)

And here is another option that can be much more versatile if needed (full macro conditionals, multiple binds):

Code:

local header = CreateFrame('Frame', nil, nil, 'SecureHandlerStateTemplate')

header:SetAttribute("_onstate-Bind-TAB", "self:SetBinding(nil, 'TAB', newstate)")

RegisterStateDriver(header, "Bind-TAB", "[@arena1, exists] TARGETNEARESTENEMYPLAYER; TARGETNEARESTENEMY")

this looks awesome, thx guys !

Amazing work!
