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

[Jafula]

With auto-accept off I need to make at least two actions to share a quest from my masters log instead of one, and previous addons have shown that it's technically possible for this not to be necessary (although I'd not setup a "big button" I will look into that).

I'll bind the AcceptQuest function so I don't have to click in each slave window next session when I turn auto-accept off. Jamba share button would well I think.

I'll see if I can implement your previous addon's method; before I go with the share button on the GUI. Planned for 0.3.

Jamba-Sell

• Add inclusion list for addition items to sell. I'd like to drag and drop non grey items to auto sell (for instance on some alts I end up selling claws, food, etc... a bunch of white stuff I don't feel like auctioning for coppers of profit and need the bag space more).
• Add exclusion list for grey items not to sell.
• Add option to sell soulbound armour types specified by tag.

Inclusion list for white items to sell : good idea.
Option to sell soulbound items specified by tag (i.e. non-usable) : great idea.
Exclusion list for grey items not to sell : well, thanks

GUI to constantly display of the /follow status of my slaves (green if on /follow, red if not).

This. <3

Thank you so much, this addon removed all the little annoyances I had with multiboxing :D

A suggestion:
Could you make an option that the Jamba-leader is following the focus? So if I set the focus to another character, this will be the new leader for all Jamba clients?
I know I can do a slash-command to broadcast it, but that doesnt work with modifiers (my focus macro works with modifiers).
Another way to do this is to make a "/jamba-setmaster focus" or something like that.

Hooray!

Ok, there is a PLAYER_FOCUS_CHANGED event and I can read the focus character from UnitName("focus"). So If I add the follow option in Jamba (Core) somewhere that reads like:

When this character's focus changes, set the master to the character that is the focus.

This would be an individual option and not broadcast to other toons. So assuming all your toons change focus at the same time, it should work. If you have the Jamba-Group option "Promote to leader when master changes" then you'll also get the promote functionality for free.

Is this correct?

So, if I add this in for you, would you be willing to receive a version (with this functionality) earlier than the 0.3 release? And of course, let me know whether it works as you intended or not. (I'll just PM you a link to the new download.)

im willing to test this out for you too
i use the focus system to designate the leader, using seperate buttons to switch focus (also using PiP with them)
right now i added the /jamba setmeasmaster all to each focus macro
but this should have the same effect, with less macro clutter

That would be perfect! I would like to test the that for you and of course I'd let you know :)

I think I just found (a minor) bug by the way:
When my players were dead I was not able to mass-cancel a quest. All characters sent the "I have abandoned the quest: [questname]" to the relay channel, but the quest whas not cancelled (not on the master and not on the slaves).
[edit] Another bug:
In the relay channel I just read: "Accepted Quest:" while I did not do anything with quests (aside from a few minutes earlier where I cancelled one)

[s][edit2] Feature request:
Auto-hide Jamba-quest when the normal quest window is closed. [edit3] Hmmm strange ... now that I dragged the window just once, it seems to auto-hide automatically.[/s]
Bug:
Auto-hide of Jamba-quest doesn't work when you close the normal quest window with the X button or by pressing escape. It only toggles correctly by pressing the Quest button from the normal WoW interface.

I don't think I can make the "/jamba setmeasmaster all" part of my PiP switch macro's, as every toon would broadcast that to every other toon.
But it will be easy enough to have a second macro, which is mouse clicked, so only the current client activates the "/jamba setmeasmaster all" macro.

I'd like to say keep up the excellent work on your addon. By far, its the best multibox addon out there.
And you're also active on these forums for support of your addon, which absolutely rocks.

I don't play WoW but the huge number of downloads on this thread caught my attention, so I just read most of it. Sometimes you can tell when a piece of software is great just from seeing user comments and the way the developer answers. That's obviously the case here.

Jamba looks so good, maybe I'll roll a few WoW toons just to try it out.
