auto follow messes up in bgs and says your not in a raid group it may be a communication error to not sure

Good to know. I made some changes so if you are in raid/party Jamba will work faster. Sounds like it got confused. Let's see what others say and what other things you discover.

well after a few hours and such still working great aslong as ur in a raid group if your in a party jamba auto follow will lose comunication and then all of jamba wont work all the toons try to follow eachother and u cant move at all un less reload ui then ur good till u die or swap toons. so just make sure u join ur group and convert to raid you will have no problems then.

also what about on the trade thing could u add a trade button for both toons?
also in battle grounds i dont know if u implemented it yet but the afk thing that gets u deserter its called the idle debuff
also maybe an icon on the jamba team showing if each toon has the crusader buff.
all just thoughts of how much more that would improve mine and others boxing.

Ok, looks like I need to test this some more, it should just work regardless. If you are not in a party/raid it should work.

Do you mean buttons that accept trade? If so, no I can't because addons are not allowed to "accept trade".

Yes, that is in, but I have not tested it. Please go to Toon: Warnings and find the warning at the bottom of the page for Inactive buff. Please let me know if it works.

also maybe an icon on the jamba team showing if each toon has the crusader buff.

As in the the paladin crusader buff? Mmmm, thats getting too much into unit frames territory. There should be a way to get your unit frames to show you that.

Is there a guide (something comprehensive) which explains Macros. I'm trying to create my macros so I don't have to create them 5 times... I'm struggling to set up my basic accounts.

Can anyone advise?

Read this thread. Then come back with questions.

Hi,
Yes I read that yesterday but thought it was only for FTL setups because of the variables.
I'm starting up my 5 man team tonight and would like to get my macros done quickly. I don't want something complicated just yet.

The variables are for everything! Anything you want.

I posted some basics links in your recent thread which might help you.

Thanks Jafula.
Secondly, would you recommend that I use your macro addon for everything...
Some people use /macro as a global macro.

I'm going to setup a FTL when I'm home from work. Should I use your addon for everything.
I read that your system has problems because you can't change targets during combat? I don't what this means practically, not being able to change macros on the fly.

I like Jamba-Macro, but it is a bit complicated to get going. Advantages over /macro is that each macro can be 1024 characters as opposed to 256 characters. Jamba-Macro can be pushed to other toons in Jamba-Team, /macro you need to type each one in seperately.

You can change targets during combat. Macros cannot be changed during combat (any system, not just mine).

How are you going to do FTL? Again, I recommend ISBoxer... What key/mouse broadcasting software are you using?
