    Place Pet issue 3.2

    Wanted to see if anyone else had this issue and knew how to fix it.

    I've been using this macro to save space on my crossbars:

    /micon Place pet Eos
    /pac Heel
    /pac Place

    Since 3.2 and the new ground macro abilities were added...my place macro has gone wonky. It works fine if I am not targeting anything, but the second I target something and try to move/place the fairy while targeted...she dives straight into my target instead. The ground placement icon doesn't ever show up. You can hear it clicking and the white dot briefly appears.

    Basically the /pac Place is acting as if it's /pac Place <t>

    Does the same thing on my Sum Pets.

    Right? All that control you feel as a scholar telling your fairy to go stand over there and aoe/embrace in a .5 second action is all gone. Now it's like uhhh guys I'm just gonna stand where I WOULD have placed my fairy qq

    Also please note that this also affects the machinist's turrets in some way. Before 3.2 the macro below would allow me to place a turret as normal, and pressing the same button would retrieve it.

    /ac "Rook Turret" <me>
    /ac "Turret Retrieval" <me>
    As of 3.2 all it does is place the turret directly one me and it doesn't even read the next line in the macro so I cannot retrieve it.

    EDIT: I figured out i just needed to remove the <me> from the Rook Turret line and it works perfectly /facepalm

    Try it without <me>. By saying <me> you want the skill to go off on yourself.

    /ac "Rook Turret"
    /ac "Turret Retrieval"

    Also if it doesn't work like you want, I would say do it in the reverse order.

    /ac "Turret Retrieval"
    /ac "Rook Turret"

    This will return the turret, then pressing it again would place it. If there isn't a turret to retrieve, it will try to place one.

    My guess is that you won't have an issue and that this bug only affects pet actions (/pac instead of /ac.) Hope this helps and that they fix this soon.

    It would be really nice if <mo> could be used with ground target abilities like Place, to drop the effect under the mouse cursor. Or if this ambiguity of function causes confusion, a new <mc> specifically for the ground under mouse cursor.

    For Summoner, a macro of

    /pac Place
    /pac Obey <t>

    works sort of for me. If I have a mob targetted, it does the Obey command, if have nothing targetted it does the Place command. It just won't do both under the same conditions.
