Keyclone ... is this possible

Hey keyclone,

First, I'd like to say I love your app best $10 I spent in a long while.

I'm getting ready to move from two boxing to five boxing and I've come upon some snags. I was wondering if there is a way to round robbin specific keys. I'd basically like to have it so if I press say the F2 key once it will cast psychic scream, on 2nd press it does howl of terror on another char, on 3rd it does another howl of terror from another warlock.

Now only F2 (or keys set to round robbin) will work like this and all others will take default settings.

I basically want to hit one key for all my aoe fears on rotation but still synchronize all my other casts. Is this currently possible?

Heck yeah this works. Theres a "round robin" list in the setup where you put what keys should "round robin". All other keys will function normally.

I do this without keyclone with a simple cast sequnece macro: (well keyclone passes the keys like normal, just bind all of these to the same key on all 3 toons)

Priest 1 first click it will fear second and third it will do nothing

/castsequence reset=24 psychic scream, ,

Lock1 second click this one will work

/castsequence reset=24 , howl of terror ,

Lock2 third for this


/castsequence reset=24 , , howl of terror

if you get the idea just modify it around a bit to get what you need. A comma in a castsequence works if there is a spell inbetween it or not.

@Phsyclone
yes.. it currently supports this functionality. just make sure to put F2 in the round-robin list on all your connected keyclones. you can put more then 1 key in the round-robin list, and it will be tracked appropriately.

if you don't want a character to participate in some round-robin keys... well... that's a bit tougher, but solvable. you can currently run as many keyclones on a single box as you'd like... so... you run another keyclone locally, connect it to the primary keyclone on the box, and only put the round-robin keys you care about in that list. you get the side bonus of a second do-not-pass list.

this solution might work well if you have a priest and warlocks on one box. the priest doesn't care about the F2 round-robin, but since he is on the 2nd keyclone, he doesn't participate in it.

hope that makes some sense (my brain is a bit fried... end of the week.. stam-pot (beer) needed ;) )

Thanks keyclone (and others).

I tried to set this up in round robbin but was having problem, might be because I have Windows Vista 64 Enterprise on one machine and Windows XP 64 on the other.

When I set this up, round robbin works unless I have more than 1 key registered. Seems to ignore 2nd key. It may be a cross operating system issue, so no worries. I'll use castsequence.

Demo:
Key Setup: F1 round robbin (PC1 Silence, PC2 Death Coil, PC3 Death Coil)
Key Setup: F2 round robbin (PC1 physic scream, PC2 Howl of Terror, PC3 How of Terror)
(PC1 is the Vista 64 PC)
(PC2 is the 1st Window client on Windows 64 PC)
(PC3 is the 2nd Window client on Windows 64 PC)

If I only use F2 key, it works as intended. But if I use both f1 and f2 here is what happens.

F1 --- Silence on PC1 (OK)
F2 --- physic scream on PC1 (OK)
F1 --- PC1 Silence on PC1 (Should be Death Coil on PC2)
F1 --- Death Coil on PC2 (Should be PC3)

Seems like using the second round robbin key, rests the first. In the OP I was I thought it was designed that way but looks like a cross OS issue. No biggie. =)

I'll just use the macro Jusa suggested (thanks!) until I can convince my boss that Vista 64 sucks balls and I can install XP64 on the system. Shouldn't be too hard since Vista 64 still seems to have a 4GB limit bug, so windows only sees 4 GB out of my 8GB installed.

Thanks again for all the support keyclone. Greatest multi-boxing software out there!

You might be better off using /castsequence macros like Jusa suggested.

/castsequence is problematic though if you hit the key more than once. Keeps resetting it.
