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

[SoulSeekerUSA]

You mean like "Teetoe is not targeting you!"? Those messages? Several of the sections have different options but you may want to look under Jamba - Me for a few that are default.

No, i Know about those options. I want to be able to turn the big red letters off that are in the middle of my game screen.

In the Jamba option, there is a warning tab. In that tab, there is a send warnings to raid warning option (cannot remember the exact wording). Uncheck this box and the big red text will go away.

Did the trick, thanks

I'm a little late to this party, but I just installed Jamba last night and I'm really liking it. I have a few questions/suggestions, apologies if I'm just being dense.

- Is there a list anywhere of /slash commands Jamba supports? I don't see one on your site. In particular setting up a new group would go a lot faster if I could type /jamba master [name] once with key duplication on.

- Group invites -- Unless I'm just missing something, this is a bit awkward, as I have to bring up the jamba window and click the button to get the group put together.

- The Jamba status window is interesting, it would be nice if it offered some other functionality other than showing follower XP bars (as many of my toons are 70). Showing rep instead/if tracked would be sweet for those "fun" rep grinds. Also doing group invites via a button in that panel, or a right-click menu item, seems like a good addition. Clicking on a follower toon's follow status icon to toggle follow (or at least turn on follow) would rule.

- Fubar plug in to add a menu to fubar -- this would probably solve both the two above issues I have

- Profiles -- I have several boxing groups, because I have alt-itis Setting up new groups is a little tedious tho as I'm using the same set of options for all my gorups, but these are not the default options. I can work around this by copying stuff around inside the jamba.lua data file but a UI for copying profiles (like Bartender, X-perl, etc) would be better. Granted, I only have to do this stuff once per new boxing group, but I'm OCD and hate it when I miss changing one of the options, only to be puzzled later when behaviors are not as I expect.

- The 'push to followers' is great, but does this push all settings, or just the settings on the page being viewed? If the latter, an option to do a global push for all settings would remove some of the tedium of setting up a new group.

- I haven't seen anything like this go off yet, but it would be nice if followers could inform the master of events like rep levelups (now exalted with Darnassus etc), profession skillups, etc.

- Using a channel for communication with the master rather than whispers seems buggy -- when I tell my toons to do that, they end up leaving the channel instead of joining it (they were already in it before I set up Jamba). I'll try it again tonight to make sure this is what I'm really seeing.

Keep up the great work. Paypal donation incoming

Well, for your group invites.... I just use a 1 button macro.

First, ensure all your toons are on each others friends list.
Second, ensure all your toons are on your jamba team list (/jamba, team tab, add all toons to this list on each player)
Third, on your main toon, create the following macro: /jamba-group invite
Drag that maco to a bar, one click it, party auto accepts, you're good to go.

I currently use:
/jamba-follow master all
should one of my toons get off of follow.

Is there any way I can temporarily turn off follow with a macro, and then use the above to turn it back on?

I've created a drood, 3xhunter, pally grp, and of course need the pally to go in and the huntards to stay back.

Thanks!

I've noticed on a few servers, the guilds I'm in either have a toon limit or for multiboxing have alt guilds... it would be cool if you could have ToonA's guild chat forwarded to all the other toons so that when you're on another toon you can hear if your guild (or different guild) is asking something.

No list of slash commands yet.

/jamba-group invite
/jamba-group disband

/jamba-follow target <toonname> <tag>
/jamba-follow master <tag>

To get your characters to follow your master, use the master command above, replace <tag> with "all". You only need to run this command on one toon. I like your idea about the click to follow. I can add options to change the experience bars to rep. Health as well is in the works.

I want to build a command centre; with some of the options you have mentioned. I'm adding a minimap button that will pop up the command centre / options screens.

At the moment, I'm not going to support FuBar or Titan or anything similar.

Profiles I could do, but I'm not too keen on them. Jamba allows you to add all your toons to the team list, and enable the ones that you are going to use for your current session and disable the rest. What about this system do you not like? I like the mix'n'match, all options configured already way Jamba is set up. Tags can be used to differentiate different types of toons. Sure, tweaking to be done.

A global push is probably not going to happen because of the time it takes. A team push already takes too long as it is. Pushing all the settings would take too long for my liking.

You can get the system information (rep level up,etc) , by adding parts of the information phrases to the system messages tab (?) in Jamba Talk. Have a look.

Let me know if the channel sorts itself out.

Thanks for the donation.

No, follow can only be stopped by pressing a movement key, jumping, etc.

Sure, I think I could add this option in. The guild chat would just get forwarded according to the jamba chat options.

Love Jamba, thanks for all the work on it.

One tiny issue I have is that the Jamba Team window seems to be set to always be the very top window, getting in the way of my Carbonite map when I open it or even my bags when they open, as you can see in the pics (just in case this isn't default behaviour but an issue at my end).





Any chance it could "know its place" and stay behind more recently opened windows?
