Good morning multiboxers,

I have a question for you guys... ive poked around but if somebody has answered my question I've missed it.

What I am looking for is basically reverse DNP with keyclone. I am using the Jamba add on to have a leaderless group, so I can go to either of my characters right now and play him as main without having any issues with bindings or whatever (using /target jamba-master or whatever it is). What I want to happen is a keystroke that, for my main focused screen, nothing will happen, but which will get distributed to my alt(s). thats why I call it reverse DNP. Is there any way to do this?

Example) I have a key that makes everyone heal the main character of the group. I want everyone to do it except for the main character (because i will likely be tanking with that person)... So, in keeping with my leaderless group setup I need a way to map that function to ALL my characters but only have my alts cast it (so ignore it on the main)

Does that make sense?

Any thoughts are appreciated, thanks.

I don't think it works that way. Keyclone, from my understanding, repeats keystrokes set to the active window, not so much sending a new keystroke to all of the windows you've selected Keyclone to work with.

If he'd grab, then send out to all of the windows, I'm sure Rob could code in a check box kind of thing to drop the current focus window repeat al la round robbin functionally.

Who knows, I'll PM him this thread.

If you use the FTL setup you can make your macros, that you don't want to happen locally, start with:


/stopmacro [nomod]

And use hotstrings to send a modified version of the key to the other machine.

1 --> ctrl alt 1

So the other machine gets ctrl alt 1 and the script realizes from this which character sent the 1 key. (yes the computer actually 'realizes' 8)

but since you did not use a mod key on the local machine the macro stops executing on the first line.

with two machines the FTL setup is fairly quick and simple once you wrap your wits around it.

Hmmm I guess I need to read up more on hot strings and FTL then, I havent used those yet.
