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

[Milenko]

this really is driving me nuts, i had it fine before now its broke i done something i don't know what, i,ve turned off strobing, but when i have autofollow after combat on its autofollow 24/7 never leaves me alone

[Milenko]

btw cog the all/justme/slave tags are there by default, and i just tested they can't be removed

[coglistings]

well, this is going to sound strange but i'll recommend it anyway. add another tag to your entire team, ie "pleasework" and assign that tag to everyone. then set pleasework as the tag the jamba-follow goes off of. If that works, then praise the gods as we would say and term the call

if that doesn't do it, then you can always take the bliz tech approach and delete the associated toon's wtf folder.

jafula would have to confirm but I think that there is a hidden key binding that he uses to break follow, ie down arrow or something. If your bad toon had that keybinding remapped accidently, then that would break jambas ability to break follow. reset your keybindings for that toon before you do the wtf and a repush of jamba settings.

Thanks for helping out coglistings; there is no way for an addon to stop following. An addon can start following, but not stop it. Jamba can stop strobing follow, but once that is done, you still need to press a movement / jump / sit to stop following.

really need your help, my head is about to explode. ok i had it working before, but somehow i messed it up

my problem is my shamen keeps following me in combat, when he is supposed to be ranged caster, he breaks cast mid spells if i move on my pally tank, i had it setup fine so when he got into combat he stayed still (sometimes he wouldn't be facing the mob so i would have to drag to mod in front of him but that was fine)

but i broke it, i,ve tryed the slash commands to turn strobing off " /jamba-follow strobeoff all " but it still doesn't work

this really is driving me nuts, i had it fine before now its broke i done something i don't know what, i,ve turned off strobing, but when i have autofollow after combat on its autofollow 24/7 never leaves me alone

1. Make sure you are using the latest version of Jamba, as there have been several bug fixes for follow.
2, Make sure no other addons are enabling follow as well. For example, ISBoxer can /follow for you through its interface and in game addon.
3. If you want everyone but your caster to follow, tag every other toon as "melee"; then issue the command: /jamba-follow strobeonme melee. Make sure your caster does not have this tag.

Still not working after checking this and coglistings advice? Write back and I will try and help some more!

I had a feature request I'd like to run by you.

Being slightly OCD, I like all my stuff to line up on my various toons. I love the push feature, and was wondering if a push feature could be implemented to push the window positions to other toons?

Hmmm, I deliberately kept the windows settings out as like having them in different spots on my slaves vs my master. I don't have this issue anymore as I use ISBoxer now, so I could push the settings through.

I'll see if I can add a seperate button for the window postions so as not too annoy anyone who relies on this feature. I assume you want both the display team and item bar window positions?

my team display is not showing the rest of the team, it seems to only display the main character on that screen.
any ideas what would cause this?

Ok, it's on the list of things todo:

http://wow.curseforge.com/addons/jam...-team-display/

Jafula, you didn't respond to his first item:

Im having trouble with my team display. When my guys are following me they dont lite up green.

Back in version .4, you had mentioned that strobing was causing the follow display not to update properly. Is this still the case? The follow indicator never seems to sync back up, even after over an hour of playing and the guys following using strobing.

Perhaps a feature request to occasionally resync things, and perhaps another to do a manual sync of things between the master/slaves?

Thanks for the great software, and if you need a bounty to add these features, I'd be willing to pony up some dough, or just donate if you prefer that.

Thanks again

Has it worked previously? Your team not being in the team list on the affected toon would cause this.

When you are follow strobing, the follow indicator is turned off. Otherwise the addon channel would be flooded with follow on/off messages every second.

Settings don't go out of sync by themselves and auto resync seems overkill.

You are welcome re Jamba. Feel free to donate at any time! :-)
