If you are using keyclone, add Enter/Return to your do-not-pass list. You might also want to use the Mute/Pause button before chatting with anyone. :)Quote:

First up, Jamba-Quest 0.2 is a lot better than it is in 0.1a (IMHO).
So, I've been doing a little testing on Jamba-Quest.
Without any "questing" addons, seems fine.
With the following "quest" addons installed: QuestHelper, CarboniteQuest, QuestsFu, MobMap (as well as Cartographer, full Auctioneer, Bartender 4, X-Perl Unit Frames, Jamba, DevTools, some others).
Small Problem
The "problems" are mainly to do with the quest log; accepting/declining/completing quests from npcs seems fine.
When I select a quest ... no delay.
When I abandon a quest ... delay of about 10 seconds. I watch my quest log get "parsed" twice, so the slaves run through all the quests they have twice. This is because those addons are calling select quest behind the scenes and Jamba hooks this functionality. I have tried to accept a quest immediately after this; and have had to wait for the other addons to finish "parsing" before the slaves would accept the quest.
I have described fixes in previous posts to help with the delay. I have another proposal.
Proposed Solution
Edit: Made a Jamba-Quest GUI instead after feedback from beta testers. All delay problems solved.
[s]I'm going to add an option to only send commands to slaves when modifier keys are pressed. For instance, only send select quest, abandon quest, quest watch commands when ctrl and alt are pressed. This is going to default to off. You can choose the modifier keys (alt, ctrl, shift - either or left or right).
So you run Jamba-Quest (0.2); if you find you get unacceptable delays, you can turn on the "Only send commands if modifier key pressed" option. Then you have to remember to have the modifier keys pressed when doing select, abandon, watch commands. (And you must remember to select before abandon...)
Should I apply this "modifier key down" only to the quest log or to the npc quest interactions as well?
This solution is for YOU. :) (I personally won't be using it.) Is this an acceptable solution for those who plan to use Jamba-Quest? Would you use it?
Please comment if you can spare the time. [/s]
Thanks, Jafula.
sounds like a good compromise; hopefully it can work by default with reasonably low delays (I use questhelper only on the main toon)
> Should I apply this "modifier key down" only to the quest log or to the npc quest interactions as well?
I would say only quest log if the npc quest interactions mostly work (and that can be turned off if not)
I'll be happy to beta test that change if you'd like. ;)

I'm sorry, I haven't played WoW today, so haven't been able to try the pre2, but changes sounds nice. Pre1 wasn't too bad, fixed a lot. I had some trouble figuring out what all the options were tho..
Will this also allow me to setup my partyleader like a /pr <me> command? I mean I understand that this will set the 'jambamaster', but would jamba be able to promote the master to party leader if one of the other jamba members is able to promote?Quote:

Either way I think I'll find this addition simply awesome.
I think Frosty answered that question for you. I don't think I'd easily be able to override what was sent to guild chat if I did try and implement such a thing.Quote:

Only stupid mouse tricks I get are on one machine and with hotkeynet. I've had the cursor jump a few times on my slaves (seperate monitor) but never on my main.Quote:

Not yet, but PromoteToLeader does not seem to be a wow api protected function so I could add that as an option to Jamba-Group in 0.3 for you. Do you want it so that it automatically happens when you change the master (as an option); or a seperate "/jamba setmeasleader <tag>" command?Quote:

There was another mod running about that squelched ALL outbound chat from alts. Also unless sendchatmessage is protected you could do an old fashioned hook...Quote:

I haven't done UI Dev in a while but I believe it would be something akin to:
Of course I'm sure this is dirty code somehow, some best practice against doing it this way, etc etc... but my 12 seconds of typing and 3 seconds of testing didn't find any errors :)...Code:local function MySendChatMessage(msg, chatType, language, channel)
if(LeaderFlagSet) then
Blizz_SendChatMessage(msg, chatType, language, channel);
end
end
Blizz_SendChatMessage = SendChatMessage;
SendChatMessage = MySendChatMessage;
Hey Jaf,
Downloaded / installed beta. I didn't delete old Jamba, wasn't sure if you wanted me to do this or not. Beta works with all my mods, no lua errors. Pushed tags from my main to slaves, worked perfectly. Slaves auto follow after combat :thumbsup: . Still playing with the focus master. Abandon quests didn't work.... even with quest silently on I still got caught in a mountain of spam. I had the questlog open on all toons and it cycled through all my quests on each toon every time I tried to abandon a quest from my main. I tried to abandon with the questlog open on the master and closed on all others, and got the same thing. I took a screeny of it and i'm going to put it in my gallery. My main had the "Master" tag; and all other toons had a "Slave" tag. Invite Group, Disband group worked perfectly. Set loot to free worked. Auto accept res worked too.
I'll spend a little more time with it in the morning.
Thanks for the updates Dooz. Glad that most of it is working! I believe I have solved the spam / delay problem. I couldn't do much about the spam, as it was being caused by Jamba hooking functions that other addons used a lot. So what I have done now is change the way the quest log changes go from master to slave.Quote:

You select a quest on the master and it gets noticed by the Jamba-Quest gui (see image below). Then you have four commands you can tell your slaves. Select, abandon, add and remove watch. If you click abandon / watch the master will do the action as well (to save having to click twice).
You can show and hide the jamba-quest GUI with the command
/jamba-quest show
I've PM'd you a link to the new beta with this system in it. Now there is no repeated spam being sent; and I hope all the delay problems are gone. No more watching your toons cycle through all their quests! Yay!
