Hi -[/font]

Major fan of multi-boxing. I've just bitten the bullet and have set up KeyClone on 2 boxes with 5 accounts. In going over this site, I've seen I want the leaderless setup from the start, even though it seems remarkable difficult to set up. So, I started putting it together and noticed some things.... maybe I'm not seeing WHY you guys are doing it the way you're doing it. It seems to me that if you put:

LSHIFT+LCTRL+LALT+TILDE/FOLLOWA
LSHIFT+LCTRL+TILDE/FOLLOWB
LSHIFT+LALT+TILDE/FOLLOWC
LCTRL+LALT+TILDE/FOLLOWD
LCTRL+TILDE/FOLLOWE

The first thing you can'T use if you set it up like this are different slave and master keys, so you would loose the 'soloplayability'.
-This is not a big deal, and perhaps a thing which is no problem in your setup.
Another thing is, that (if i'm understanding the hotstring concept correct) you never would actual activate the follow-macro on the 'slave'-toons.

To give a demonstration what would happen if you use the same keymap, as you proposed:
Say your at the moment 'activ-played'-toon is ToonB and you want the other toons to follow him, so you hit 'Tilde'.

In a setting with different keymaps:
The keymap of toonb would contain the hotstring "'tilde' ---> followB" and this hotstring would be evaluated for each toons keymap and for all of them mapped to 'Shift+Ctrl+Tilde'. Because of the mapping 'Shift+Ctrl+Tilde' would be send to all 'slaves' and because of the follow-makro they would select ToonB to follow.

If you use the same Keymap for all:
There is no simple hotstring like "'Tilde' --> followX" so a simple press of TILDE wouldn't activate any hotstring and nothing happens, if you would want that your toons follow ToonB you would have to press ''Shift+Ctrl+Tilde" manualy by youself (which is impractical) and you wouldn't need any hotstrings at all.
