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

[valle2000]

I guess many others also use the click-to-move option on their slaves (in combination with interact you can make slaves run toward mobs/npcs). However it annoys me to have this activated on my master, since it's so easy to by mistake click on the ground.

So my question/wish is; In jamba you have an option to set focus to master. Would it be possible to add a sub option to "Automatically activate click-to-move on slaves and inactivate it on master"?

The commands to manually set this are, to turn it on:
/run ConsoleExec("Autointeract 1")

To turn it off:
/run ConsoleExec("Autointeract 0")

What do you think of this idea? And would it be possible to implement this in jamba?

I use click to move on my slaves but not my master, but I don't spend enough time with another master to where I'd want to change the click to move settings for it, but if I did I'd just include those lines in my master changing macros.

The best add on for wow boxers, now I wish someone was able to make something for Eve!

heya Jafula,
just wondering if we can make the team display bar of current toon green instead of red :-)
so that when all toons are following the main, all bars look green (instead of the main red and the other green)
i don't mean this to be a new feature, but if you could pinpoint the code where i can change this it would be great :-)

Thanks

JambaDisplayTeam.lua in the function that starts at line 1398

function AJM:UpdateFollowStatus( characterName, isFollowing, isFollowLeader )

Personally I would love it if Jamba (and all addons really) included another frame in the GUI called "Slash Commands"

For Jamba, you could either add it to the main info page, or on a help frame under Toon: Merchant, and it would include the contents of http://wow.curseforge.com/addons/jam...lash-commands/

Hey Rusty,

Thanks for posting this idea. I've included it in my rework of the Jamba settings. Now each module has its own help section. At a mimimum I'll put the slash commands for the module in the help. Here's some screenshots of what it will look like.

Those buttons have not worked for me in a long time, but it sounded like they worked for everyone else, so I gave up arguing it.

Jamba-Quest Log Windows buttons still not working for you Maxion and you alcattle? What versions of Jamba are you using?

[Jafula]

first of all /bow for Jamba.

I downloaded the 0.6 version yesterday while leveling my dk + 4 rets and it keeps bugging out for me. Slaves won't complete the quest when the leader does, but when i alt+ tab to a slave and complete it on him, the slaves somehow do follow it and accept it aswell. Has happened close to 10 times now.
Also jamba would randomly spam follow broken every 5 seconds or so from 1 slave. eventhough follow was far from broken, since i was just flying in the air in a straight line.

What's odd, is that the first seems to be fixed when i complete the quest with the old leader. (started 4 rets and leveled those) And the followspam comes from the oldleader aswell(to my DKscreen)

I checked the Teamlist if they did have the correct char as leader and they did.

Just figured i'd inform you, it might be usefull.

FYI: I think the quest watcher adds a bit more addon traffic that I would like slowing the quest stuff down slightly and this is what you are experiencing. I'm working on making it better.

Is this still happening? The follow spam?

Hi there, love the addon, wish Id had something like this back in the day when I 6 boxed EQ. Im not sure if this has been asked in the past or not, or if its even possible, but could there be a way to have jamba notify of a break or have a timer on the mains screen for Polymorph, Hex etc? Since the word about CC being big in Cata, Ive been practicing it, and have come to realize that in a simple extra pull or what ever I can easily keep tabs on it, but when I have a large amount of mobs with lightning bolts, missiles and shields flying everywhere, I do tend to lose track of time and end up with a very whooped up mage hehe.

If anyone knows of an already existing addon that does this, please let me know, would love to have it

Thanks in advance for any info provided

Built you a ticket so I remember about this:

http://wow.curseforge.com/addons/jam...f-cc-breaking/

I can't guarantee that I'll work on this, but at least its on the "todo" list.

Not to be overly negative, but I downloaded 0.6 and upgraded from 0.4g today. I just finally got frustrated to the point that I managed to find a copy of 0.4g to go back to and did so happily. A short list of what I was struggling with, offered as a list of starting points for debugging.

Thanks for taking the time to post this.

1: All my settings were lost going from 0.4 to 0.6. Worse, when I went back to 0.4 everything was lost again (the original 0.4 settings apparently were destroyed by 0.6)

Shouldn't have happened, I changed the variable the settings get saved to when I moved from 0.4 to 0.5. Sorry about that.

2: It was a lot of work to get my team added and showing up on everyone's list. I built the team on the master and added just the master to everyone else. This was the same as 0.4g. When I "pushed" to the team, however, nothing happened. This was because everyone (including the master!) was showing up as offline in the master's list. (Dont understand how the master can ever show himself as offline.) I did some reading, renamed the channel, made sure that everyone was appearing in the channel list, added to slaves to the master's 'friend' list, and it sort of started working.

Yay! It works!

3: The team list that is supposed to show everyones XP (and now health too!). I had values and percentage both turned on. Everyone had 100/100 (100%) XP and health. Except the master. For whatever reason, the master never showed up in the team list.

Re: XP and Health at 100% on load. This is normal. You need to buff / attack someone for the status bars to update. The master should have been in the team list, though...

4: As I came in for a landing from a flight path, all but one of the slaves got D/C'ed. When I logged everyone back in, the master never saw the connected toon as logging back in (because it never logged out). This caused that toon to show Offline in the team list. Guess who never received and invites, and never showed on the team list?

Bummer.

--Items 2 and 4 lead me to think that the code is trying to be too 'clever', and only send data / commands to toons that it determines are online. The problem is that it is frequently wrong in that assessment, and there is no easy way to tell it that those toons are actually there. Code that ignores me because it thinks it is smarter than me is frustrating...

Agreed, the code is trying to be clever. You can see the history of why this came about if you read all this thread. I'm going to add an option to "always assume team is online" to the core: communications section, which will solve your frustration.

5: The quest watcher puts a large, invisible frame across the center of the screen. This interfered with the mouse when I try to click-drag to adjust my camera view. I had to click off to the side of the screen. in order for it to register.

I have a fondness for invisible frames! Will see if I can make it less obtrusive.

I still think Jamba is practically required to multi-box properly, and can't imagine trying to play without it. That is why it was so frustrating when so many things didn't work properly. Luckily, I had a working version that I was able to revert to so I can continue to play.

You can also download any of the old versions from here:

I hope with all these changes I am making that you will give the next version a go.

What do you think of this idea? And would it be possible to implement this in jamba?

I like it, here's a ticket and its on the todo list:
