Greetings,
I play a resto druid and was wondering if its possible to code (using lua) something like this:
IF
(any party member A is within 40 yards of me)
AND
(atleast 3 party members are within 15 yards of A (including A self) and below 80% hp)
AND
(Wildgrowth is not on cd)
THEN
{highlight the WG button and highlight that party member)
I am unsure if it would be really usefull but I am curious if its possible :)

Thanks for the replies. I definitely dont intend to make a bot using this (thanks to Manutavast for noticing) - infact I am not even sure I would want to use it even to highlight. Rather, I was curious if its doable because I want to know whats possible and whats not with the wow lua.
As Ketho points out one of the hard spots is checking ranges between other players. I wonder though if there is a way to get the loc of a player and then use a math (Pythagoras) function to calculate the range yourself.
As it goes I dont consider the pseodo code I suggested terribly complex - it was more of an opening question to test the waters.
I guess I will need to look into the lua myself to find out :)

There is the
GetPlayerMapPosition
function which returns the coords of players in your party/raid which would be a place to start.
As far as I'm aware, even though all the maps have x,y coords 0-100 (displayed by the GetPlayerMapPosition function as 0-1) the actual map sizes differ so, in theory at least, if you can find out the actual sizes of the maps in yards it shouldn't be too hard.
