Automatic Weapon Swap On Stealth Or Unstealth

Automatic Weapon Swap on Stealth/Unstealth

This script will automatically swap your weapons when you enter or leave stealth. I feel this is superior to creating a new stealth macro (like above), and new macros to combine swaps with your attacks, e.g. Ambush. Also this version will ensure your sword is automatically restored if your stealth is ever broken, say if you're detected by a mob, or a DoT breaks your stealth, etc.

Note: this code assumes WeaponSwapEquipDagger is LuaSlinger script #1 and WeaponSwapEquipSword is LuaSlinger script #2. You can change this below, just change the number to LuaSlinger_Exec().

Note: These days, since the 1.7 weapon swap nerf, I actually comment out the line to automatically swap in my dagger upon stealthing. Then, once stealthed, if I really want to use a dagger attack I use a manual keybinding to swap the dagger in. But I still really like having the code to always make sure my sword is equipped anytime I come out of stealth.

Set this to execute on event: PLAYER_AURAS_CHANGED

if (isStealthed == nil) then
  isStealthed = false
  wasStealthed = false
end

isStealthed = false
for i=0,15,1 do
  t=GetPlayerBuffTexture(i)
  if (t and string.find(t, "Ability_Stealth")) then
    isStealthed = true
    break
  end
end

if (isStealthed and not wasStealthed) then
  wasStealthed = true
  -- NOTE: assumes your LuaSlinger Script #1 swaps in your Dagger
  LuaSlinger_Exec(1)

elseif (not isStealthed and wasStealthed) then
  wasStealthed = false
  -- NOTE: assumes your LuaSlinger Script #2 swaps in your Sword
  LuaSlinger_Exec(2)
end
