I've been digging through the site, but have yet to find anything that looks like it answers a question I have about jamba-purchase: I just can't seem to get it to work, and I wonder if anyone is actively using it? I want to be able to auto-buy ammo for my team of 5 hunters. On the master, I checked everyone's tag for "all" and pushed that out to the other four. Then I dragged a stack of arrows over to the jamba-purchase screen and it appeared to correctly load into the item name box. I've then tried a few different quantities: 1 (for 1 "stack"), 200 (since the arrows come in stacks of 200), and various numbers in between. After I add the item (using the "all" tag), I then push the change to the other four characters. However, nothing happens when I right-click to start a buying session with an NPC who sells the arrows. I've tried it on all five characters after pushing the changes, and I've tried it just on the master without pushing the changes. Neither way results in anything happening.
Is there someone out there using jamba-purchase who can clue me into what I'm doing wrong? Or is this functionality just not completely working yet?
Thanks!
Hi,
I really like Jamba it's great.
Maybe a nice feature would be to add a functionality like profiles, like Titanpanel etc use.
I'm one of those ppl that uses many different teams, and loading a profile from an already setup character would be handy.
Another nice feature would be a Team option:
Define Team A - Char1, Char2, Char3, Char4, Char5
Define Team B - Char6, Char7, Char8, Char9, Char10
...
Define Team F - Char1, Char7, Char13, Char20, Char5
I hope you get the idea.
This way mixing would be really easy.
Would be nice if it's an option you could implement.
Hans.
I don't have it in front of me but, I think you set the number to the amount you want to maintain. I have my Shaman set to keep 10 Ankhs and my Pally set to keep 100 Symbol of Kings as an example. For your arrows, since they now stack in lots of 1000 keeping that number at say 5000, 5 full stacks, would make your dudes purchase arrows every time you were at a vendor that sold arrows and and they had less then 5000.Quote:

Oh man, that makes so much more sense, and totally explains why none of my team would make the purchase since they all had at least 400 arrows each already in inventory! Grr, I wish I wasn't at work so I could try this out. Thanks very much for your help, I'm going to set this up right as soon as I get home tonight.Quote:

Profiles are coming in 0.5. You can use the profiles to implement your team idea and mixing characters should be easy enough.Quote:

Did you remove the donate button from your website? Or have you never had one? If it's the former you should put it back and if it's the latter you should add one :).
I come read this thread every so often but haven't read every page (lots of them!). This may have been discussed before and I just missed it. I am getting in the mode to start 10 boxing. I currently use the FTL system which makes it a bit cumbersome to drop toons into groups and such. Would it be possible that an addon could detect the current toon in the active window, make it the main and tell all the other toons to focus on it? I'm actually wondering if there is an easier way to get a redundant team setup without having to do a lot of hotstrings with keyclone and having to restructure all your macros when you change a member of your group/raid. If each toon in the group/raid could know who you are currently controlling a simple /assist focus would be all you would need instead of complex fancy smancy macros. I suppose there is one problem where the main would try to /assist focus as well because the macros is telling it to and there is not a nomod situation.
I would love to be able to just drop and add toons on the fly but not sure if there is a feasible way to do it. I posted this question in the jamba section because well, i figured this is where it should be. :) *wink*
If you are using focus based macros you can do this with Jamba, but not automatically. There is a Jamba slash command to make yourself master, I think it is /jamaba makememaster . There is also a /jamba setmaster <name>. Then you can set the option "when master changes set focus to master".
Depending on the rest of your setup you could tie in the same hotkey you use to switch to a different toon to change the new master and change your focus. Or you could switch over manually and hit a macro to do it.
I am not at home so I don't have it in front of me so I might not have the names exactly right, though the slash commands might be in this thread somewhere. Once you see that and play with it a bit I think you will be able to do what you want.
EDIT:
List of slash commands [Addon] Jamba - An assistant for multiboxers. 13th Update - 0.4e released.
I was close with the names - these are from the above link.
/jamba setmeasmaster <tag>
/jamba setmaster <target> <tag>
Forgot about these, you could also put these to use
/jamba setfocusmaster <tag>
/jamba setfocus <target> <tag>
Thanks a lot! Maybe this weekend I will play around with it and see if I can get something to work for me.Quote:

While i know you said you use FTL system, I would recommend using a system that lets you have conditionals in your casting macros that lets them work regardless of whether the toon is the master or not.
Not sure how possible that is to do with a FTL system.
Since I use a focus the leader system, and example of how i macro it would be:
/cast [target=focustarget,exists][target=target,exists][] Lightning Bolt
(i realize the abbreviation of "focus the leader" is FTL too, heh, normally just call it a focus system, but anyway, I assume by FTL you mean focusless targetless leaderless system, which is only useful in hardcore arena pvp)
So like the subject says: Issue with WoW windows crashing when I don't take all the toons on a taxi run. So has anyone experience it at all? I think its related with JAMBA but not sure.
Hi guys,
I'm havin an issue with Jamba. I'm running 4 toons from one WoW folder on my slave PC. Each toon uses its own config.wtf. I installed jamba in the addon folder and set up a group with my main char on my main pc. The problem is now that jamba doesn't store the settings when i logout with my toons. So when I login again the only charater in the jamba-core is the char itself. But all the other team members are gone.
I'm using ISBOXER with jamba and I have the Jamba-ISBoxer.lua in my saved variable folder. But that's the only one.
So what do I wrong?
Cheers

Same here. Anyone already on a bird crashes to the desktop when the master takes a flight path. If they're not on a bird, you just get the warning about "I cannot figure out where to go" message. You should be able to switch it to solo mode before doing that if you're not all synched up.Quote:

/jamba solo
I've been meaning to try that but it's so rare that I do anything to cause the problem that it's not been a priority. :P
Assuming you are running windows vista you need to make sure the permissions on the savedvariables .lua files are set to allow writing.Quote:

Either run wow in admin mode (which adds an annoying confirmation box before starting each one),
or set the permissions on the files/folders to allow user/owner/admin to write to them.
(what i do is just set it for the whole wow orwtf folder, so it changes it for everything inside, just remember to do it again after running the game after installing a new addon so its .lua files are there)
Hmm. Well, as you know, I am enamored by the Battered Jungle Hat as of late. I got another one today, and when I went to sell, off it went... which I've been watching for, and I bought it back and went into /jamba-sell to set the exception and Battered Jungle Hat was already there! All of the proper boxes were checked, but the sell exception was being ignored. I re-added the item, and it returned to working properly (``DID NOT SELL <cherished grey item on excetion list>'') The bug was happening after relogging. Not certain what other info would be helpful in tracking this down.
I've noticed a few bugs with this addon but haven't used the sell stuff part yet due to the fact that I have a 'sell junk' addon on all my toons and I watch what it sold just because I've always been that way. But honestly I think something should be programmed or tried to be (sorry I would attempt to do it myself but not very good with lua stuff lol I'm a VB type of guy) making the 'master' ignore the 'follow after combat' rule cause it sucks having to get it set up on the master to push it to the others and then forgeting to uncheck that and he just randomly trys to follow one of the slaves lol. if it is an option send me a PM saying i'm dumb lol.
I was not able to reproduce this on my EU server. Are folks still having problems?Quote:

I've been using auto follow after combat with no problems.
If your master is trying to follow one of the slaves, then I would assume that your master has a slave set as his master. Go in to your Jamba Team settings and make sure all characters have the same team and follow settings. The master should have itself as its own master so it knows not to follow itself...
eta on next version?
I aim to have a beta version of 0.5 out for folks to test at the start of June.Quote:

Hey,
I havent been able to actually experience DB'ing myself, but I soon will be going to. (Have to finish exams first)
At the moment, I am just researching on what programs to use and which macro's and add-ons.
As for now, I am going to use KeyClone.
I will be DB'ing a Shaman+Hunter.
After searching for the options available to use as add-ons, it seems that the Jamba add-on is the best.
But I have a few questions about this add on:
-------------
*Does this add-on allow your second character (slave) to actually copy the acceptation of quest my main does?
- For example: If I go to an npc with my main, my slave will follow me (cause of /follow macro). Then I will talk to the npc and select a quest. Will my slave automaticly
talk to this npc too and accept the quest? Or do I need to use the share quest option, and then accept it on my slave?
-------------
*Does this add-on allow you to perform the actions needed for an quest on your slave (mirrored from my main)?
-For example: I accepted a quest on both my main and slave, and now I need to plant a banner. If I plant this banner on my main, will my slave automaticlly perform this action as well?
Or how do I need to manage this?
-------------
*Does this add-on allow your character to automaticly repair stuff at an npc?
- For example: I am talking to an npc with my main. I select repair all items. Will my slave automaticly repair his items as well?
I hope you guys can answer my questions, as I am still learning :P
Thanks in advance guys!

No, you first must open the NPC window on both. Then it depends on the quest, but JAMBA does all it can to help. (you can't share quests when the NPC give you an object)
"*Does this add-on allow you to perform the actions needed for an quest on your slave (mirrored from my main)?

"
Depends on the quest. Some will give credit to every party member ( the good quests, MB wise) and some won't. Jamba can't help here
"*Does this add-on allow your character to automaticly repair stuff at an npc?
- For example: I am talking to an npc with my main. I select repair all items. Will my slave automaticly repair his items as well?"
Again you have to open the NPC window. Jamba has a option to auto-repair.
Hey jafula, are you putting the code and beta on curseforge as you mentioned a while back ? when ?
Looking forward to the new release
A suggestion about the defaults: don't set UI error fwding on by default as it cause tons of lag and spam when you spam a dps key ("the spell is not ready"... x4 sent ... = lag ) - I suspect it may also cause disconnects
Thanks
First off, simply awesome add-on man. I only installed this last week and I'm kicking myself for not doing it sooner. Just makes everything about multiboxing easier.
So far the only issue I've come across is whenever I change focus several times within a few minutes when I go to say complete a quest the followers will not mirror the masters choice selections even though they have the correct toon set to master in the jamba-core section. Nor can I "push" any of the settings to any of the followers either. Every other way Jamba will keep working, vendoring, repairing, auto accepting rezzes and invites, etc... but it just won't mirror the master's choices or allow me to push any settings. Nor do I experience any disconnects, or any of some of the other weird stuff people having been reporting in this thread.
It will however eventually start working again after approximately 2-3 min.s of doing absoultely nothing Jamba related, and when it does start working again it will switch the master to the last master I had focused on, then switch the master back to the toon I currently had it focused on.
So my best guess is that something is getting backed up when I change the master causing Jamba to run really slowly. I doubt it's any of the other addons I have installed as I have disabled everything on all toons except Jamba and it still does the same exact thing for the same amount of time. When I do not switch masters however I never experience this problem, or least not in the last week and a half I've had this installed.
Any help is appreciated :D
Yup; it's Jamba swamping the addon channel with too much information. You can reduce what your toons send to each other. I suggest turning off the Forward UI Errors and Forward UI Information options in the Jamba-Talk options. This should help a lot.Quote:

If you have macros that use jamba commands that use tags; you can minimise traffic by duplicating the macro on all the toons and removing the all tag. (Sorry I can't explain this further right now.)
Jamba uses the Ace3 library which in turn uses ChatThrottleLib. ChatThrottleLib is designed to make sure your characters don't get disconnected when sending addon traffic. Hence when Jamba sends too much information over the wire, you see delays and this is ChatThrottleLib managing the addon traffic. ChatThrottleLib will halve its output rate if your toons FPS is below 20. This sucks for most of us as our slave FPS is usually between 5 - 15.
A solution to this is to make sure all your toons have a minimum of 21 FPS. Another solution is to find all instances of ChatThrottleLib.lua in your Interface/Addons folder and change this line (its near the top of the file):
ChatThrottleLib.MIN_FPS = 20 -- Reduce output CPS to half (and don't burst) if FPS drops below this value
Glad you like Jamba and I hope some of what I have said helps!
Sorry folks; I'm going to have to push this date back to mid June. Silly RL getting in the way again!Quote:

Well I've read through something like 30 pages of this thread last night, my eyes hurt :( , and I've seen you make mention of the /jamba setasmaster all and /jamba setmaster {toon} all commands which I tried which didn't seem to help. However I didn't try the putting the command on the followers so I'll try that again later and see if it helps.Quote:

As far as the fps yea they are usually running at about 10-15 fps on my alts. I was about to go buy a vista 64 so I could use more ram anyways so I suppose I'll just go buy that today and see if it helps.
I've had the problem a number of times, but I don't think it can possibly be Jamba per se - it's a proper WoW crash (the WoW equivalent of a BSoD or core dump), and addons can't cause that sort of crash.Quote:

It usually happens when I have a toon on follow but don't get that toon to open the flight path NPC, so he then attempts to follow (on foot) a toon that takes off on a taxi flight .... crash!
Yes, they can; I've done it a few times while writing Jamba code.Quote:

I can recreate the crash on EU and US by:
1) disabling all addons
2) loading more than one WoW instance on a single PC (group all chars)
3) having 2 characters follow a "main"
4) take a flight on the main when my ping is less than 100ish (the chars on follow are within interact range of the flightmaster, though no dialog is open)
5) The 2 on the ground now drop to desktop...
Or I can
1) enable only jamba
2) ...same load group follow scenario as above...
3) open dialog with flightmaster on 1 follower but not the other
4) take flight with master
5) master now crashes, no dialog guy stands there looking silly, seconds follower rarely drops but does more often with a higher ping.
I used 2 routers before my cable modem to cause the higher ping for testing...
I don't think jamba is the cause, but it does change the nature of the problem so perhaps it's simply interacting with a bit of code causing trouble in WoW.
Hello!
I am new to all of this. Unfortunately, I could not get the newest version of Jamba to invite members at all. Followed instructions on the site, it's the only addon installed to. All slaves kept rejecting invites. With all jamba turned off, the slaves will be prompted to be invited. So I know it's Jamba refusing the invites. It doesnt even prompt to allow invites. It just auto-denies. The Jamba-Group addon is setup correctly.
Could this be a broken version of Jamba? If so, is there an older version w/o this bug (if it exists)?
There was a bug like this and it has been fixed. Make sure you are using the latest version 0.4e from the website: http://wow.jafula.com/Quote:

If so, that would be a major help.
So please lmk if there is a way to do that with this addon, or just a way in general. (without having to click a button though)
