Ninjitsu NPC and Razor bug

[Ville]

Ive noticed alot of people complain and/or asking for help after talking to the NPC to train ninjitsu the Wiki says it will train you to 25, but everyone ive asked said it only would take them to 23 skill which makes gains very very slow, i macroed this with razor over night but had some issues with razor ill explain also. This is very frustrating but its the only way ive found to get past the animal form part once past that gains are alot faster, maybe it has to do with how the skill gain is set up in the code or because it start the skill out so low, but it is possible .

When macroing this with razor using the animal form skill if you recieve a pm or go to click on something else or even move sometimes it seems you will be disconnected from the shard, its quite anoying if you get alot of PMs or trying to do multiple things at once, but i figured i would share this info for the newer players out there looking for some help with this.

Hope this helps someone
Good Luck & Happy Hunting

you can avoid the menu for the most part if your moving while casting the spell.

Fixed the discrepancy. We can thank "one of the richest players on the shard" - and therefore, in his own words, one of the smartest - for pointing me back at the wiki entry that was the source of the question that prompted the exchange "The trainer I found only trains me to 22, where's one that trains to 25?" So after being told that I wouldn't need to ask if I Googled or used the wiki and suggesting I was lying when I said I did, I've done the grueling and bone-crushing work of changing a 5 to a 3. Future newbs have been saved from condescending and somewhat ironically unhelpful advice. Wibble.

This happens with many macros that go a bit too fast - it can be easily countered by adding a couple Pauses, probably a 500ms between the Cast and WaitForGump and 500ms after the GumpResponse.

Also, many players who run WaitForGump macros will notice disappearing PMs, this is often because the line is WaitForGump(Any) .. basically meaning that the macro will look for ANY menu that appear, including the little PM icon in the corner (yup, thats a Gump). An easy solution is to select that WaitForGump line, right-click and choose the selection that looks something like WaitForGump(#1234567890) - this makes the macro wait for that specific menu, instead of just any random one which appears. If you do this, you may also want to right-click on that line again and Edit Timeout, changing it to 3-5s - meaning if that Gump doesn't 'come in focus' within that time, the macro will start over from the top.
