| I need to send "get shield" immediately after "stop", but I can't work out how the second command needs to be added in.
Help?
-- button 2
{
icon = "stopgetshield.png",
tooltip = "STOP/GET SHIELD",
send = "stop",
}, | | Top |

| Simplest way is to build in a linebreak:
-- button 2
{
icon = "stopgetshield.png",
tooltip = "STOP/GET SHIELD",
send = "stop\nget shield",
},
The character \n is a "newline" which means it turns the string into multiple lines. Put as many of those in as you need. |

| Another way is Lua multiple-line strings:
-- button 2
{
icon = "stopgetshield.png",
tooltip = "STOP/GET SHIELD",
send = [[
stop
get shield]],
},

| Sorry for dragging up an older post. Referring the code snippet:
-- button 2
{
icon = "stopgetshield.png",
tooltip = "STOP/GET SHIELD",
send = [[
stop
get shield]],
},
How would I add another command after 'get shield' which was already a pre-defined alias please?
I currently use Execute; Does that mean I need to leave the Send and issue the Execute?
Thanks. | | Top |

| The commands are sent to Execute, and thus aliases will be captured.
So if your alias was "blah" just change it to:
send = [[
stop
get shield
blah]],
