I've started playing ISBoxer to make my life easier when I'm multi box mining.
One thing that is stumping me is in the area of mouse broadcasting. Typically I have one ship that just sits there letting the NPCs attack over and over, while the other multiple clients are in mining ships eating asteroids slowly but surely.
Sometimes, the NPCs aren't there, and can take up to 45 m to spawn. So I want to maximize my time and start eating asteroids, when the bad guys show up, I need to warp out just my miners since their ships aren't the sturdiest of things. I can do this in EvE by setting a fleet up correctly and fleet warping, but I'd also like to use mouse broadcasting to right click on my ship, click the appropriate menu options and then warp to a designated point to wait for the NPCs to focus on the guy I leave behind. There isn't a hotkey in eve for this, it's all mousey stuff.
My problem is I can't seem to figure out how to stop it from doing my ship I want to leave behind as well. I see these broadcast windows, but I don't need the windows, I just need to say 'broadcast to all but this screen'. I can't seem to find that in the Wiki. I'm sure I'm an idiot and missing something a little direction would be appreciated.
