Trinket Slot Macro Wow
I was wondering if there is a way to first check if my trinkets are off cooldown and THEN use /use them.
Here is what the problem is.
My macros look BASICALLY something like this.
Problem with this method is when my trinkets are on Cooldown I get bombarded withItem is Not Ready YetandSpell Is Not Ready Yeterror messages, which significantly reduce my casting speed, which is a BIG problem in PVP. You know every failed spell or trinket use trigger a GCD of like 0.5 or more.
I need some way to check if the trinkets are ready before executing the /use command and if they are still on Cooldown, the macro should skip the /use 13, 14 part and proceed directly with the spell-cast.
Here is how I imagine it, USING PSEUDO-CODE to just represent my idea.
Anyone got any idea how to resolve this ? I used the Search function but didn't find anything relevant to my problem.
Just wondering about a macro for Using a trinket based on its slot id instead of item id? Question I want to make a forever macro that shows tooltip with a modifier of shift.

This will use the trinket in slot Z, unless you click button 2, in which case it will equip the trinket at bag coordinates X,Y. Useful for engineers with multiple trinkets on separate cooldowns (i.e. Goblin Mortar and Goblin Dragon Gun in slot 13, Goblin Bomb Dispenser and Mithril Mechanical Dragonling in slot 14).

This page lists macro conditionals, keywords used with macro commands, the RestrictedEnvironment and the SecureStateDriver API to allow limited logic for player convenience without trivializing the game.
Refer to secure command options for syntax and making a macro for a tutorial.

Targeting keywords
Targeting keywords begin with @
and assign a temporary target to the macro command. (This does not change the player's selected target.)
- @unitId
- Any valid unitId.
- @cursor
- Immediately targets the ground under the cursor.
- @none
- Interupts auto self-cast and requires a targeting cursor.
Boolean conditions
All other conditionals evaluate as either true to execute the macro command, or false to skip it. The no
prefix reverses this (ie, nodead means alive).
The following tables categorize each boolean condition by whether it evaluates the state of any target, only the player, or the user interface.
