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

[species6729]

Just want to say this is a great Addon for multiboxer.

I just started with a 5 box warlock team. I am able to get most of the function working, however, for the life of me, I was unable to get the mod- Jamba-taxi to work. My toons only have one flight plan between Stormwind and Sentinel Hill. I read thru your intructions on the website many time to find out why this is no working

I have the check mark on the option in Jamba-taxi on my master and then click on the button "push to characters". I check and all my slaves has the same option checked in the same mod.

I have all my slave right click on the flight master to open up the window, where I can choose where to fly to, I then right click and open the same window on my master toon. I then left click on Sentinel Hill in the window. Only my master toon will fly to the Sentienl Hill and my slave will stay where they are.

Great job on this addon. Can you believe I actually had fun setting this up? The gui made it pretty simple and straight forward. A couple things I noticed.

Auto Follow after combat- Not a big deal could never get it to work on previous addons this one can't get it to work either. Installed everything went outside to fight some NPC. Backed all my toons up after we were in combat. Killed the thing ran away no one followed. Oh well not a big deal I am so used to pressing the follow button that I would feel strange without doing it.

AutoPromote Master. Tried out the flightpath guy and was happy with that. Made it into shat and sent a /promote clone1 to everyone. I was thinking that it would get to clone1 and it would push the master back to master. Which it didn't.

Everything else that I tested worked really well. This is going to make everythign I do easier and more enjoyable. No more switching 5 screens to synch up the quest logs. With the default settings there was alot of spam I thought. All usefull information but alot of it. Overall I give this a 9.5/10. You will get a 10 if you keep developing this into Wotlk.

On the taxi thing all you need is tick the box where it has the taxi reference in the set up. You also need to have your main at the time of flying set as the master. Then this is the key--All toons must have the flight map open on their screens, when the master chooses a destination they all fly there. If your alts dont have the map open they wont fly.

I had similar problems with Jamba v0.1, but that may have been my configuration rather than a problem with Jamba.

With the latest version I've not experienced the problem at all. Are you using the latest version?

In this screen here



you need to make sure that all the members are ticked on your master and your slaves. This is an old screenshot, now this list is under a team tag, but you get the idea. If the checkboxes are all ticked, then the slaves will obey the master.

So check all these boxes on your main, push to characters, and then try the taxi again. Let me know if that solves your problem.

Ok, I assume that your master is set up properly if your slaves are copying the masters quests. Maybe...

1) when "Backed all my toons up after we were in combat."- if your toons were backed up and didn't actually hit the mob, then they may not have been in combat even if your master was.

2) You have a movement key mapped that is causing the toons to move when your master moves breaking the follow.

3) You have another addon installed that is conflicting. Have you tried Jamba as the only addon?

AutoPromote Master. Tried out the flightpath guy and was happy with that. Made it into shat and sent a /promote clone1 to everyone. I was thinking that it would get to clone1 and it would push the master back to master. Which it didn't.

When you issue the command

/jamba setmeasmaster all

on a toon; that toon will tell "all" the others that it is the new master; and if one of them is the party leader, they will promote the new master to party leader.

THANK YOU!!!!!

thank you for making such a great addon! im in love with it. i've just gone through the basics of it but i will also, in the following weeks, play around with some of the other options. a lot of it seem all too advanced for me now, but i guess i little trip to your site will help explain a lot of the functions. again, thank you.

I too, use this addon now, Im loving it. Thanks!

You are both very welcome!

Want it to be a 10! Now! ;( ?(


Sure, I'll be playing Wotlk with my 5 toons. Jamba will be coming with me.

Here is an idea. Jamba-Combat: a multiboxer friendly scrolling combat text. I know there is a hack out there to spam the damage from your toons on your main screen. What I would like to see added is labels from who is doing what damage. I know some other people had wanted to see all of the damage added up and displayed for them instead of listing every attack. ie.

My preference

Shaone: lightning bolt 2100
Shatwo: lightning bolt 1500
Shathree: lightning bolt 2000
Shafour: lightning bolt 2200
Shafive: lightning botl CRIT 4000

--------------------
addition style

Party lightning bolt : 11800 (1 crit)

As much as I like this idea I think that you would be best off leaving a major combat parser out of the picture until other features are locked down tight.
