[Addon] Jamba - An assistant for multiboxers. Old Thread

Haha Thanks for the spamming the invite key tip sounds crazy but it works!

[puppychow]

its a bug in 3.1, hiding the party popup right after doing an AcceptGroup() causes you to decline the group invite. For now here is my temp fix until Jafula comes back, edit the file Jamba\Modules\JambaGroup.lua, go down to around line 530 and comment out the hidePopup = true; line. it will look like this:

-- Accept the group invite if allowed.
if acceptInvite then
AcceptGroup()
--hidePopup = true;
else
-- Otherwise decline the invite if permitted.
if autoDecline then
DeclineGroup()
hidePopup = true;
end
end

just add -- to the line after AcceptGroup() ==> --hidePopup = true;

You will still have the ugly party invite group on your screen, you can do the regular macro to accept-all to get rid of it or it'll go away after a few mins. Unless Blizzard fixes this bug the only real fix is to fire an event like 3 secs later to hide the window, instead of doing it a few lines down.

This is a temporary fix for Jamba 0.4d (the version name is still 0.4d, but it is a changed addon!):
http://www.wow-multiboxing.com/files/Jamba.zip

Changes:
- changed TOC version so it doesn't get marked as an out-of-date macro
- diggla's temporary fix that hides the group invite popup as it should

[edit] Updated!

I didn't have time to do a lot of testing, but it seems some other things are broken. For instance, the special Jamba "Abandon Quest" button does not work anymore.

I can however confirm that spamming my "Grouping" button does work, for some reason.

Folks, there's a better fix...

I ran into this issue in my own addon, and asked for help at the wowace forum.

The user Borlox gave me an effective piece of code

for i=1, STATICPOPUP_NUMDIALOGS do
  local dlg = _G["StaticPopup"..i]
  if dlg.which == "PARTY_INVITE" then
	dlg.inviteAccepted = 1
	break
  end
end

StaticPopup_Hide( "PARTY_INVITE" )

So, update the StaticPopup_Hide( "PARTY_INVITE" ) so it looks like the example above and it will work.

NOTE: It worked in my addon, but I don't use Jamba, so I can't guarantee it will work there.

Hope that helps

Now for the next logical question... due to the changes to group order, is there a way to change Jamba for slaves to always accept invites in a particular order?

It works perfectly. Thanks a lot.

Well, my guess is that since it was never really an issue before (as the order was predetermined by some strange hudu as I recall), I'm betting that they're just iterated trough in whatever order the team members are in the table.

It seems logical that some kind of sort order / weight / organization could be added and a small config page for managing it would be in the realm of the do-able.

No problem. It's not the most elegant solution... I'm researching a much better long-term fix, but it works well enough for the moment.

Borlox from the wowace.com forums is the one to thank... I just had the good sense to ask and wait for someone smarter than me to hand me the answer on a sliver platter, then share the love.

Seriously though, that's why I love the developer community... we help each other out.

[edit] Updated!

I went ahead, downloaded that copy, updated the JambaGroup.lua file with the patch and have hosted it asJamba_v0.4d_FanUpdate.zip.
