Hello, Im having trouble using the asterisk in instead of the /wait command in my macros. I really want to replace all /wait commands in my macros with the asterisk but I can't get it to work, for example I have:
/ac "Windbite" <t> * 2.5
/ac "Venomous Bite" <t> * 2.5
but when I execute this it never goes can someone help me out.
Using (*) instead of the /wait command for macros

Wait timers only support whole numbers and rounds decimals. -

Ok I didnt know you could use it on the same line like that, nice! But yea around the time of the 2.2 update it said in the notes that the asterisk could be used instead of /wait Ive gotta find the notes.

Patch notes are all here. I think you're getting something confused. AFAIK there's never been any mention of asterisks in macro syntax in any of the patches or hotfixes. The <wait.#> syntax was added in 2.16 (but the page for those notes is formatted incorrectly so the <wait.#> doesn't show up where it should in the notes; you have to view source on that page to see what it was meant to say), but that's been the only change with /wait since 2.0.

/action Swiftcast
/action Raise
By using the syntax, players can now use the wait function together with other actions on a single line.
* Please note the original /wait command can still be used if desired.
