I have a few keys that i bind for movment of my slaves. I have acouple strafe keys and other movment keys. But an issue im seeing is that when i strafe them they get spread out some. like one waits a few seconds before he starts to strafe and its a diffrent slave every time i strafe so eventually they get really spread out. any ideas how to fix this? or whats causing it

Could be FPS lag spikes. You run all characters on a single machine with very low FPS, right?

The fact that they are not ever all pointing in exactly the same direction will also tend to spread them out over time when you broadcast movement keys to them, particularly when strafing. I have also noticed the issue with occasional input lag to some characters when moving my slaves. I've not yet been able to pinpoint the cause or remedy.

ya its imput lag cause ill hit it 4 will move and 1 will stay just for a second and then be a bit behind. so its hard on los fights. But i try to find places that i can los into a wall to bunch them back up. but with the wall clipping buggs right now sometimes that causes problems too fall through the world and all.

I do remember having an issue at one point where my formations and slave movement weren't responding as expected. What I did to fix it was make sure whenever I had a Mapped Key for movement with "Hold any Keystroke Actions while Hotkey is held" set to "On" that two keys were always being sent. So, for my "Others Forward" Mapped Key I have 2 Keystroke Actions:

W -> all other
W -> all other

even though it should really work with just one. I'm not sure whether it's a RIFT issue or an IS/ISB issue. It might be worth a try for your problem.

so under the same step do 2 keystroke actions and but the same keystroke?

Yeah, no idea why it works but it is worth a try.
