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

[Jafula]

Last night I tried aborting a quest, and only my leader aborted it. Anybody else seen this?

I've just tried it with 0.4e (the version that DigitialSorceress provided) and the abandon worked for me on my slave toon.

Is there a troubleshooting guide for this? I'm currently using ISXboxer and this addon annoys the crap out of me when I make them /assist my main and use the "interact with target" button. They spam me with "You have no target" and "You cannot follow that unit"

?(

Jamba-Talk options - Uncheck "Forward UI Errors" and "Forward UI Information".

i imagine it's been brought up before, but like the /follow strobe function, this nifty addon offers, would it be possible or legal to implement an auto assist function pretty much the same way? like give us the option to turn it on and off like the /follow strobe onme deal? wasn't sure if Blizz would allow this or not. for some reason my /assist focus macro won't select the enemy as fast as it should, but when it targets NPCs like vendors and questgivers right off the bat most of the time. i usually have to mass the /assist macro a few times to get everyone in my team to focus on my main's target both before and in the middle of combat when switching targets after i down one.

Sorry, no can do, AssistUnit is a protected function and cannot be used directly by addons. I found /assist to be quite slow as well and I ended up using "/cast target=focustarget SpellName" type macros instead. I was running a casting group, not a melee group. However, I think the lag is probably the same either way.

thanks for the quick reply Jafula. I'll change up my macros some and test them that way. see if they're any faster and don't require me to wear a hole in my keyboard from pressing so much.

Hi, I've been away awhile, and certainly haven't read these 57 pages of thread, and, heck, I may even have reported this already, so bear with me if I am being retarded.

Anyhow, I had enchanted some grey gloves with the +Fishing enchant, and noticed the grey auto-seller happily sold it. I know I can list things not to sell, but it was gone before I realized what happened. Just thoguht that if a grey had an enchant that maybe it should be auto-excluded. Not a huge deal, but hey, thought I'd mention it.

Thanks for the great add-on and the recent update, which I'm grabbing *right now* yarrrr!

Good idea. I'll add this check into 0.5. You will have to manually sell grey's with enchants.

I get white stuff to enchant; seems risky to enchant grey stuff - what items are available in grey but not in white [eg tradable] ?
(this being said sure, it's a nice addition)

I just wanted to say thank you for this wonderful piece of software that makes my life so much easier while playing a video game. Of all the addons I use, yours is the only one I feel I can't live without while playing. When you finally hang up your keyboard on Jamba, I'm gonna kidnap your ass and hold you hostage ala the movie Misery. Break your ankles and all that jazz so you can't escape. "Type you bastid!!! TYPE!!"

Okay, maybe a little harsher than Misery, but the results will be the same. It'll all be for keeping your faithful followers happy.

Haha, I'll make sure I move into some sort of witness protection if I ever bail on you all!

Hi, another suggestion. From time to time I disable all addons so I can log into alts more quickly. When I re-enable add-ons, Jamba, and few other add-ons have windows reset to the center of the screen. This happens for the 'Jamba Team' window. Other add-ons preserve their window postions, and that is what I'd like Jamba to do.



I'd also like to know how it is done, so I can tell the other addon authors (SmartBuff's, for one) how to fix their code without haveing to tell this story over and over



Thanks!
