well all my guys names are really close and i was wonder if there was a exact name auto follow macro
well you could try.........
/target "Exact Name"
/follow
I wonder if the following works:
/follow [target=targetname]
would be nice to get rid of that target thingy, I'm gonna try that when i get home.
Have your slaves focus your master.
Then use the following macro;
This way they won't target your master. You can also do the same thing for assist. :)Code:/follow focus
I hope this was what you were looking for.
You can follow with the character name.
/follow abc
where abc is the name of you character. Type the exact name and it will follow that character, regardless of focus or target.
I use the Designated Driver addon personally. Fight, then type /dd and away you go. It will auto follow whoever typed it. You can look it up on curse.
If you're using focus assist, or party1 assist you can always
/follow focus or /follow party1 -- although I've never tried the second...
/follow also accepts the key unit conditionals... so
So you have to watch out with target conditionals.Code:/follow [target=focus,dead] [target=focus,noexists] party1; focus
/targetexact <personName>
/follow
I had the same issue with "Velath" and "Velathi".
If I did /target Velath SOMETIMES it would get "Velathi" instead.
I use the second one so I can say that it does work.Quote:

Try this:
/script FollowUnit( "exactcharactername" )
Thats very similar to what I do, although I do it with a variable and an addon I'm writing.
Ahh good, plan to rework my PvE team (all different classes) to use party1 so I can use my focus for CC, eventually.Quote:

I used to use party1, but I don't know how it will work in a BG or a raid. Just something to keep in mind.Quote:

It works if you are BG or raid leader.Quote:

I personally use this:
Basically, it will attack my focus's target (if I have a focus), otherwise my party leader's target. So I can use party leader for normal PvE, or if I'm BG/Raid leader. Otherwise, a quick "/focus CharName" macro will allow me to set a new "leader" at will in BGs/Raids/my main dies/etc.Quote:
/target [target=focustarget,harm,nodead][target=party1target,harm,nodead]
/stopmacro [noharm][dead]
/cast SpellName
My follow macro is along the lines of...
Quote:
/target [target=focus,help,nodead][target=party1,help,nodead][target=ExactCharName1,help,nodead][target=ExactCharName2,help,nodead][target=ExactCharName3,help,nodead][target=ExactCharName4,help,nodead][target=focus,dead][target=party1,dead]
/follow
