Macro With a Proper Icon

The same thing as /macro but with a real power icon instead of a text label, which matters once you have a tray full of them. The icon name comes from the game files and tab-completes in chat.

Where to paste this

Type /macro NAME "command" to create a tray button labelled NAME, then drag it where you want it.
Use /macro_image "IconName" "NAME" "command" instead if you want a proper power icon rather than text.
Type /bind KEY "command" to attach the same thing to a keyboard key.
Chain commands with $$ — /macro Heal "targetcustomnext friend$$powexec_name Heal Other".
Save your layout with /bind_save_file binds.txt and restore it with /bind_load_file binds.txt.

More City of Heroes macros

Announce Before You Teleport Someone
General
```
/macro Recall "team Teleporting $target - hold still$$powexec_name Recall Friend"
```
Recall Friend drops the target on top of you with no warning, which is startling mid-fight. Announcing first is basic courtesy and this makes it automatic.
Bind a Command to a Key
General
```
/bind p "powexec_name Fire Shield"
```
Attaches a command to a keyboard key rather than a tray slot. Binds cost you no tray space at all, which is why serious builds end up almost entirely bound rather than macroed.
Chain Commands with $$
General
```
/macro TP "team Bringing $target to me!$$powexec_name Recall Friend"
```
The $$ separator runs several commands from one press. Everything except power activation stacks freely, so you can target, announce and fire in a single keystroke.
Costume Change with an Emote
General
```
/macro CC "cc_e 1 ccburn"
```
Switches to a numbered costume slot with an animation rather than a plain pop. Purely cosmetic and completely essential to the way people play this game.
Eat an Inspiration by Name
General
```
/bind f1 "inspexecname Respite"
/bind f2 "inspexecname Luck"
```
Uses the first matching inspiration in your tray without hunting for it. Bind the three you actually care about and you never open the tray in combat again.
Follow and Announce
General
```
/macro Foll "follow$$team Following $target"
```
Follows your current target and tells the team what you are doing. $target expands to whoever you have selected when the macro fires.
Make Your First Macro
General
```
/macro Sprint "powexec_name Sprint"
```
Creates a tray button labelled with the first argument that runs the quoted command. Drag it wherever you want on your trays. This one command is the foundation of everything else in this library.
One-Key Travel Power
General
```
/macro Fly "powexec_toggleoff Sprint$$powexec_toggleon Fly"
```
Turns your travel power on and turns Sprint off so the two do not fight over your endurance bar. A small saving that adds up over a long mission.
