    When setting a macro for platinum with 'Target by Type' it registers as gold. When stealing, the macro won't discriminate between gold, platinum or holiday coins, all are considered gold. Is this the intended behaviour?

    I know it's possible to target silver coins by type on another shard, however, there might be other rules there. I've seen silver here too, perhaps there's a specific rule concerning just silver?

    This same issue comes into play in your bank.

    If your bank contains 300000 gold, 22 plat, and 11 hcoins, your bank balance will be 300033, even though 33 of those coins aren't gold.

    I'm just happy the bank doesn't allow you to make a check for all of the "gold" coins it sees.

    lol

    I get annoyed when my bandage/feed macro for my white wyrms keeps trying to feed them platinum instead of gold. I usually end up giving my plat to whomever I'm with so that my macro stops fucking up. lol

    Confirmed that Target by Type works on silver coins; why not the other kind of coins?

    I would assume because plat and hcoins are custom and and far as razor is concerned they are gold with a different color and name but still gold. Silver is actually a different item in the client.

    Maybe you can use something like item id on the item, and check the sysmessage to determine what it is?
