Hi all,

Been doing a ton of reading these last 2 weeks and I finally took the plunge:) I got 2 accounts setup on 2 different systems using Key clone and two toolbox:) I love it everything works great so far been creating macros and such...only question that I'm sorta confused on is this.... :?:

How do I get my slave toon to be facing the same way as me all the time...sometimes during fights things jump from the side for example. If I back up my slave is facing me and cant' do nothing. what keys do I use to fix this? I have searched the forums and found lots of possible answers but I still dont get it lol. I hear mention of a spread out key...where is this magical lol. :thumbsup:

Thanks again

I ussually just turn left or right with my slaves until their facing the mob. I use caster slaves tho.

The 'spread out' key refers to one key that does different things on each slave. It's been mentioned several times but is a little hard to find. I stumbled over it in a completely unrelated thread heh. Theres a thread ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&postID=10632&highlight=formation+buttons#post10632')that sorta discusses it. I can't seem find the thread that explained it to me in a way i understood....

shouldn't really matter for you with only two toons. just make sure you have different 'turn left, turn right' keys for your alt, so you can turn him to face the mob, and reposition him independent of your main.

If you add more toons later, in breif the formation thing refers to having a single key move each slave in a different direction, eg, one forward, one back, one left, one right. This makes a plus sign out fo your toons, and is the easiest one. You can add another key that does forward and backward to the left and right strafe guys, and left and right strafe tot he plus and back guys, to make them go into an x when pressed at the same time as the plus macro. That probably made no sense...Dig around for more info on it if your interested.
