Hello,

I just started dualboxing and currently only using Jamba and Keyclone. I'm mostly okey with managing the 2 accounts and chars but I have a hard time dealing with mouse inputs. I have to alt tab and loot with my other char to get quest items, same with finishing quests (not taking, I have an accept macro and Jamba shares the quest) but I can not auto finish the quests. Same with taxi feature of Jamba, when my master uses the flight npc, the slave toon stays so I have to alt tab and manually do it. Basicly, my mouse functions doesnt work.

What do I need to do ?

- To loot with my slave toon
- To finish quests without alt tabbing
- To use flight master without alt tabbing

Interact With Target should solve your problems, it's a built in WoW function that tells your toon to interact with the target in whatever way it can - this can be attacking, opening dialog, looting, etc...

To get it working you'll want to go into the WoW settings and enable "Click to Move" for your slave character (this will let your character automatically get in range of the target NPC). Then go into the default WoW keybindings and assign a key to the Interact With Target command. Set up your key broadcasting software for use with that key.

Now whenever you go to turn in a quest, open the dialog box on your main character and hit your IWT broadcast key. Your slave will run up to the NPC and open their own dialog box automatically. After that Jamba takes over and anything you hit on your main screen will be duplicated on your slaves.

yup, pretty much exactly what DrunkMurray said.

"Interact with Target" and "Click to Move" (IWT & CTM) are clearly baseline settings for multiboxers.

- target the vendor/corpse/flightmaster/mob to skin etc on your main
- have your slaves assist your main
- click your IWT key

all the slaves that can talk/interact with that target will move to it and open the dialog box or do whatever they need to do.

if it's a mob to skin, only the skinners will run to it and skin it. if you have auto loot on they will even pick up the fur automatically
if it's a vendor, you can have jamba automatically sell all their gray items
if it's a repairer, you can have jamba automatically repair all the toons
if it's a mob dropping quest items, all slaves that still need the items will run to loot it
if it's a flight master, all toons will go and open the FP dialog, and with Jamba they will select the same FP as the master.

as a side note, uwing IWT+CTM will obviously break follow (if the slaves actually have something to interact with)

Unfortunately no, the IWT is a protected function and not macroable.

ok so I tried using

/assist macro then pressed IWT bind, but I need to spam it for the slave to loot, what might be the problem ? It is not smooth like, press assist , press IWT

there is always some lag for the slaves to aquire the master's target.
so maybe the first time you clicked yout IWT key the slaves didn't have that target yet?
