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

[Moorea]

Suggestion:

Use one of the free online bug / issue / suggestion tracking DB as this thread is rapidly becoming unwieldy and you'll loose some good suggestions/reports (will help avoiding dups maybe too if ppl search before posting there)


Bug report:

hitting escape doesn't close jamba quest - I often do combinations like esc + L + esc or Esc + N + Esc to close all dialogs on all toons when they get out of sync and Jamba-quest stays open while the regular quest log does close


(repeating just in case : I LUV this addon! :love:

feature request: if you do design a gui, can we have a big button on there that basically says "IM THE LEADER"? just in case main dies, or gets poly'ed or goes nuts, can i switch screens, press a quick button to tell all slaves that this toon whose button i just pressed is now the leader and everyone needs to make him the /target or /focus or /follow?? if thats possible it would be great. sorry if this has already been suggested. hehe.

Thanks for the Addon its great, I still don't use some of its functionality but the part that I do use work well together. Though for some reason I sometimes only get 1 of the clones to follow me on a taxi ride and the other does not, but I might not have something set up correctly.

[quote='ZorbaTheGeek',index.php?page=Thread&postID= 127910#post127910]Is it possible to make the slave units auto-accept trades when the master hits accept? I'm guessing this may be a protected function but it would be extremely handy.[/quote]You guess correctly. The function AcceptTrade() is protected. Just keep using your "big button" macro.[quote='Crucial',index.php?page=Thread&postID=12791 5#post127915]Man I love this addon -- don't know how I lived without it now. I'd love to see it enhanced though with passing/need/greed on items for individual toons by loot quality, type and/or name and selling of things by name as well (like those white items that you'd consider vendor trash anyways). There was an addon that could do this but I can't recall what it is anymore but it'd be nice to see it contained all within Jamba somehow. Regardless, great work - keep it up![/quote]I can have a think about the roll on loot based on variables idea. Not 100% sure how to implement it. The selling specific white items is coming in version 0.3.

Don't worry, I'm pretty sure I read this thread more than I should. As for the dups, I'm used to them; for instance, you are the third to report the Jamba-Quest gui problem. I like to use the number of dups as a kind of priority system. The more dups, the sooner it gets done!

Set up a macro on each toon that goes like this.

/jamba setmeasmaster all

And drag that macro to one of your action bar slots. Its not quite there yet with respect to changing target / focus in combat, but follow works! Just use

/jamba-follow master all

on one toon to get them all to follow the master.

Oh, and read this:

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!

... I do use one of those bug trackers and have been long before I ever released it to you lot!...

awesome but can you share the url so ppl can file requests directly for you (you're obviously still control the priority and/or even "accepting" the bug or targetting it for a given release) - some system allow ppl to "vote" for feature requests too

[Zerocool2024]

Sorry if someone asked this question already, but when I loaded up the new Jamba (most recent version) my toons names being Äralita, Ärzwei, Ärsechs, Ärzwölf, Ärelf, the new Jamba seems to make the A some really odd looking symbol.. So in other words, it's not letting the toons all see each other. So there for Jamba does not work.

If you're interested in just looking at the bug list, that might be doable. One of the problems with using an "open" bug tracking system where anyone can write bugs is that you'll have 5 people writing the same bug with different names, or adding updates to the wrong bugs, or filing bugs that have zero relevant information. In most cases, without regulation and oversight of said bugdb's, it's much easier and less time-consuming for developers to NOT allow public access to them. Hell, I have enough trouble getting my QA guys at work to submit good reports, and I'm the one that pays their checks.

Thank you for implementing the focus feature! I will test it as soon as possible. I never expected it to be implemented so soon _/-\o_

Another feature request:
It would be nice if the "leave battleground" button would be broadcasted.

Hmmm, I don't PVP, the wow api command for this is "LeaveBattlefield()" and it does not seem to be protected so assuming this is correct, I'll gladly implement a "/jamba leavebg <tag>" command to do this for you. You'll have to test it. :P

I'm happy to test the "leave bg" too, but I do hope it's possible that LeaveBattlefield() is called automatically on the slaves when I click it on my main character? Because if it's only through "/jamba leavbg <tag>" then I can just macro it with "/script LeaveBattlefield()" too :P
