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

[alfa]

I know its something you have been considering, but some type of persistent way to see when certain abilities have proc'd or are available would be awesome.

I'm thinking specifically of an ability like the Mage's Hot Streak. Its a notice (in case you don't know mages) that an insta-cast big boom spell is ready. Its a spell that you otherwise wouldn't cast in a regular damage spam macro. So, something that would place an icon, say on or around the Jamba group window?, that a quick glance might tell me what abilities have proc'd and/or are available by toon would rock.

Continuing to love your addon. Couldn't multi box without it.

Thanks.

I was just gonna ask about a proc alert for hot streak, just like nightfall.

Best multiboxer addon ever!

One more request from me. I am now dual-boxxing Death Knights and figure someway of tracking my slaves runes would be nice. Right now I have both of them the same spec, so for the most part I do the same rotations, but if I were to try something more complicated, being able to see the other death knights rune cooldowns would be a welcome feature.

The /use item you should be able to open up another addon and see how it was done. I'm using ELBA's tourguide file for leveling and enjoying it a lot. I have lightheaded, tourguide and tomtom installed, and one of them popped up a floating button for the mining pick for the quest where you get a sample of the huge crashed crystals in the draenai area. only gave me that option for one of the toons since I only installed those addons to the primary toon to save memory. Also don't know which of the three did the functionality, since they go hand in hand.

im pretty sure that was tourguide with the quest item pop up button

Follow strobing spams "unknown unit" errors when using flight paths.
You can't follow while on the taxi, so there's no reason to strobe while on the taxi.

Can "pause while using taxi" be conveniently implemented?

Actually, the same thing happens when you're dead. Hard to follow when you're dead.

Really love this addon, but with version 0.4, quite a few errors started to appear. The first few are already at startup. Is is due to other addons i have? Or is this a bug in Jamba?

Really love this addon, but with version 0.4, quite a few errors started to appear. The first few are already at startup. Is is due to other addons i have? Or is this a bug in Jamba?

It seems like you have a corrupt install. Delete Jamba from all your Interface/Addons directories. Install a fresh copy. Make sure you delete the old directory, do not overwrite the files.

Thanks, that solved the problem. Weird, never had a problem like this before. But now i now something new to try before reporting a problem. Thanks again and keep up te great work.

[Jafula]

awesome! thank you. i'll see if that works in-battle! hehe.

oh and one other thing. when im on my main to select a quest reward, and i pick a slave's quest reward, and then another slave's quest reward (all different quest rewards) is there a feature that will complete the quests with their chosen quest reward? or do i have to manually click complete for each one of them?
thanks!

Speaking of the quest reward selection or not, would it be possible to add an option that lets you still broadcast the "complete quest" button even without the reward selection broadcasted?
This would allow me to select the reward on each character before hitting complete on the main and everyone getting the reward they selected. Thus letting everyone still complete the quest at the same time.
I guess this is kind of a minor thing since i have to click something in all the windows anyway, but it would return the satisfaction of having them all level up at the same time in the case of a quest that is the last xp needed to ding

Well, 2 months later and I've implemented this feature. It's the only thing in Jamba-0.4b (just released). You have to check the option in Jamba Quest for it to work. It is called "Complete Quest If Slaves Have Reward Selected" and it only works with "Mirror Master Complete Quest (No Reward Choice)". Enjoy
