PTR copies don't get per-character macros
When I copy a character to the PTR, my per-character macros are not copied to the PTR with it.

I would appreciate it if that could be changed, so I don't have to manually copy all my macros.

Re: PTR copies don't get per-character macros
Q u o t e:

So it's really easy for me to do that, but really, really, epically hard for the PTR copy script to do that? So hard that it would take thousands of developers literally years to implement? Gosh golly gee, I'm so sorry that I forced Blizzard to waste a million programmer-hours to develop, hmm, let's say four lines of code.

So very sorry. My bad!


A PTR character copy works much like a server transfer or name change does on live servers. If you transfer servers, your macros and character specific keybinds do not transfer with you. These items are cached in a ACCOUNT/SERVER/CHARACTER order, and if one of those changes, then it will wipe the macro and keybind data.

This is currently working as intended, and you may post your suggestion in the suggestion forum.
