Addon to periodically trigger an ability
 
Hi,
I just want to know if it is (in general) possible for an addon to trigger an ability itself, without user-interaction.
I don't need any code, I just want to know if it is worth investing the time learning everything to get done what I have in mind.


Thank You.

stop for awhile and think - do you really hope in MMO game such addons possible/allowed?

Nope, it isn't ands that's good! Else we would have even more "bots" running around.

Addons cannot:
-Trigger abilities
-Move the player
-Automatically start an interaction
-Send chat messages
-Send mails "with attachments"
-Play custom sounds

Edit:
very true!

You had to mention it, right? -.-

Yeah, the more often we write it the more possibilities ZOs got to read and change it :D

They did write they'd put it on the backlog a few years ago, but it is blocked by sound programmers not having enough time. :D

Those lazy sound programmers, they be damned!!!

Seriously I need my WoW Deadly Boss Mods Airhorns and Meteor launching sounds when I'm about to get hit by one shot mechanics.
