Like i said worked great until release of WoD. Now im stuck. Anyone else having this nightmare?

local _, Sequences = ... -- Don't touch this

-- Rename this file to Sequences.lua before you get started, it uses a different file name so as not to overwrite your existing file with a future update.
-- Every entry in the Sequences table defines a single sequence of macros which behave similarly to /castsequence.
-- Sequence names must be unique and contain no more than 16 characters.
-- To use a macro sequence, create a blank macro in-game with the same name you picked for the sequence here and it will overwrite it.
----

-- Here's a large demonstration sequence documenting the format:
Sequences["GnomeExample1"] = {
-- StepFunction optionally defines how the step is incremented when pressing the button.
-- This example increments the step in the following order: 1 12 123 1234 etc. until it reaches the end and starts over
-- DO NOT DEFINE A STEP FUNCTION UNLESS YOU THINK YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING
StepFunction = [[
limit = limit or 1
if step == limit then
limit = limit % #macros + 1
step = 1
else
step = step % #macros + 1
end
]],

-- PreMacro is optional macro text that you want executed before every single button press.
-- This is if you want to add something like /startattack or /stopcasting before all of the macros in the sequence.
PreMacro = [[
/run print("-- PreMacro Script --")
/startattack
]],

-- PostMacro is optional macro text that you want executed after every single button press.
-- I don't know what you would need this for, but it's here anyway.
PostMacro = [[
/run print("-- PostMacro Script --")
]],

-- Macro 1
[[
/run print("Executing macro 1!")
/cast SpellName1
]],

-- Macro 2
[[
/run print("Executing macro 2!")
/cast SpellName2
]],

-- Macro 3
[[
/run print("Executing macro 3!")
/cast SpellName3
]],
}

----
-- Here is a short example which is what most sequences will look like
Sequences["GnomeExample2"] = {
-- Macro 1
[[
/run print("Executing macro 1!")
/cast SpellName1
]],

-- Macro 2
[[
/run print("Executing macro 2!")
/cast SpellName2
]],

-- Macro 3
[[
/run print("Executing macro 3!")
/cast SpellName3
]],
}

Sequences['Frost2h'] = {
'/startattack',
"/cast Death's Advance",
'/cast Soul Reaper',
'/cast Outbreak',
'/cast Plague Strike',
'/cast Howling Blast',
'/cast Obliterate',
'/cast Frost Strike',
'/cast Unholy Blight',
'/cast Pillar of Frost',
'/cast Empower Rune Weapon',
'/cast Anti-Magic Shell',
'/cast Dark Simulacrum',
'/cast Remorseless Winter',
}

In the meantime, Semlar, can you include the formatting requirements in the sequences.lua, such as spaces in names, spaces between sequences, etc? Anything formatting-related that would break the addon.

Also, Divega mentioned this works only for melee, inferring that casting is interrupted. Assuming everything works as normal wouldn't /stopmacro [channeling] in the premacro be the solution?

Edit: Also, check your single quotes to make sure your copy/paste from various websites doesn't reformat them to a different style of single quotes. First one I grabbed did just that. At this point I'm too tired to swear that's a thing, but in the blur that was the first day of the expansion I seem to recall someone mentioning it as a thing.

Edit2: After logging in, when creating the blank macro it doesn't auto-fill the macro. Names match, no spaces , etc.

If you don't have a text editor capable of changing the character encoding and you want to use characters outside the normal ascii range then you should download notepad++ or something similar to edit the file in UTF-8 mode.
