UX improvement for macros

Instead of entering each command separately, with some pause needed for processing which makes trying to update long macros an absolute pain (Dress/undress, armor etc), why not let us enter the entire macro as singular text entry, like writing on e-note, and finish with a dot?

It would make creating and maintaining long macros so much easier.

I'm pretty sure you can already sort of do this, and with normal commands. If you enter a command, then press shift+enter to go the the next line in the command input box, and enter a second command, both commands will be sent one after the other neat instantly.

This doesn't work for many things, like your dressing and armor, because it needs more time between the commands. The change you're asking for would have the exact same issue though, so I don't think what you want is even possible.

In my opinion, the macros UI was surprisingly polished the few times I've used it.

I tried stacking commands for macro adding and sadly it fails

Worked for me on the webclient. Sounds like a PEBCAK or client issue.

@macros

1

say this

say is

say A

say big

say test

.

no

test

~test

You say, "this"

You say, "is"

You say, "A"

You say, "big"

You say, "test"

May be something different between how mudlet stacks vs webclient. Hm

Either way, that's a workaround I can live with, thank you!
