Ok So heres the deal I'm coming across an issue with my Rdm file I just incorporated this section to my normal rdm file and found that I have come across the issue where when I'm meleing and do an action I switch to my normal idle gear for when I'm not meleeing after I do that said action. Also for some reason my weaponskill set is not kicking into when I do a weapon skill. Please give me some pointers if you can see what is wrong with this thank you.

Space between "melee" and /> … think you might not need. What are your rules?

No you can have the space there and still work but I think what I might want to close that section differently

Ok sorry just put up your whole spellcast and i will look at it and check it for errors. Just realized having all those rules up wont help unless i see the big picture lol

lol that is why I had post just that section The rest of the file works just fine with the exception of when I'm in melee mode. For some reason the file is getting confused with the sets that I have created. I notice when I do different actions sometime I'll switch into my melee set and than switch back to refresh/pdt- set

The rules section from your first post is different from the rules section of your second post. Is the first one the correct version?

<action type="equip" when="Idle|aftercast" set="Standard" ></action>

That might be interfering with your Melee equip rule. After you do an action, you're both engaged and in the aftercast mode, so it might not know which one to handle.

As for the WS problem, I can't really tell just from looking at it.

I'm noticing you're using really outdated synatax for spellcast. You might want to consider updating it just to stay current. Things like this:

<action type="equip" when="precast" set="PredefinedGearSet">
   (additional gear here)
</action>

Is now simplified to:

<equip when="precast" set="PredefinedGearSet">
   (additional gear here)
</equip>

The action command still works, but these things change and might not forever. Pretty much anything the action command used to do has been replaced with other things (aftercast delays and such even).

Also, I've noticed you're using "skill" and "spell" interchangeably. I was told (this may not still be the case) that every spell, JA, WS, etc. was considered a "spell" to Spellcast (because of its roots in being for spells only). It might be good to change all your "skill" definitions to "spell" and actually define your WS's (I'm always a fan of spelling things out clearly in code, even if it takes up 10 more lines). For example, this is what I use for non-Evisceration WS rules on DNC:

<if spell="Dancing Edge|Aeolian Edge|Shark Bite|Cyclone|Gust Slash|Shadowstitch|Viper Bite|Wasp Sting">
    <if mode="OR" TimeLT="6.00" TimeGT="17.59">
        <equip when="precast" set="DNCws">
            <lear>Vampire Earring</lear>
        </equip>
    </if>
    <else>
        <equip when="precast" set="DNCws">
            <lear>Fenrir's Earring</lear>
        </equip>
    </else>
    <aftercastdelay delay="2.5" />
</if>

Not sure if any of that will help. If you're having issues with aftercasts not putting the correct idle set, it might be something larger and I would suggest finding another way to define what you want. (I really struggled with this on SMN as well, since there's so many idle sets you need to consider while different avatars are out.)
