Jamba 0.5 available for testing (Update 12).

Yes, it does that already. The message is "Character Name: your text" when your spell procs - and you can set up the message to go to an area you made in MSBT. You can also tag the "message area" so that only toons with the tag get the message. Use "master" for the tag if you just want the master character to display the message.

You might have to mess around with the Core: Message options. Go in to the Default Proc Area settings and make sure that the tag is set correctly.

Please realise that this is something I hacked together and your feedback will be just awesome.

I will definitely try to provide some feedback. Question: You mentioned that the messages can be displayed in the area I made with MSBT. Should I read this as MSBT is required? If I can get rid of it and use just yours I will.

Just trying to clarify, I will try to provide some feedback tonight / in the morning,

Thanks again.

Yes and No :-)

Jamba has "message areas". You define a message area and then in other parts of Jamba you can tell Jamba to use a particular message area. For instance; every proc sends its messages to "Default Proc Area". You can change the area a proc gets sent to in the Proc configuration screen.

Message areas can be default chat window, party chat, whisper, raid warning, and if you have Parrot installed, a Parrot area or if you have MSBT installed, a MSBT area.

The reason I use Parrot/MSBT is that they already have written the code (quite a lot) that is required to display messages in a manner that makes you take notice. I don't have the time / immediate desire to write code to replicate this functionality.

For instance with your three Balance Druids, you could set up three new areas in MSBT, say top left, top middle and top right, one for each druid. You could then create three Jamba Message areas that use the MSBT areas. Then you could set up Jamba Proc and add in three Eclipse spell notifications, differentiating the spells by the tags (i.e. druid1, druid2, druid3), and a different Jamba message area for each Eclipse. You have to tag a druid with the druid1 tag, the 2nd druid with the druid2 tag, etc for the third.

This way when a druid procs Eclipse, the message will appear top left for druid1, top middle for druid2 and top right for druid3.

Alternatively you could not use MSBT and have all messages go directly to a Raid Warning on the master.

Please have a play and let me know if there is anything that could be changed / improved.

OK, Jafula. Confirmed that the problem is they have different channels/passwords. I just logged into the pally team. Channel shows "JambaTeamOnline" pw shows "JambaPassword." Shammies are set to the same thing. But, when I right-click a chat tab and go into the Global Channels settings, I see "JambaTeamOnline" channel on the shammies but "UghJamba" on the paladins for the channel. So the paladins remembered the channel/password change but it does NOT show that changed channel/password in the config UI. Very weird.

[edit] OK, investigating the settings for channel names/passwords, I see this on my paladin Zipples:

JambaCommunicationsProfileDB = {
    ["profileKeys"] = {
        ["Donalfonso - Garona"] = "Donalfonso - Garona",
        ["Donramirez - Garona"] = "Donramirez - Garona",
        ["Zipples - Garona"] = "Zipples - Garona",
        ["Busuku - Garona"] = "Busuku - Garona",
    },
    ["profiles"] = {
        ["Donalfonso - Garona"] = {
        },
        ["Donramirez - Garona"] = {
            ["teamOnlineChannelName"] = "UghJamba",
            ["teamOnlineChannelPassword"] = "Ugh",
        },
        ["Zipples - Garona"] = {
        },
        ["Busuku - Garona"] = {
        },
    },
}

Now, what's interesting about this is that Zipples shows a Blank/default channel/password entry in the config, yet she's connecting to the UghJamba/Ugh settings for Donramirez. I check the global channels for Zipples and she's definitely connected to UghJamba/Ugh. So is it reading the wrong index into the profile settings for channel/password when you're pulling the defaults/settings?
