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

[Kalyse]

I have only bought <removed> at this stage. I am going to buy several though and see what I like the most. I don't have an issue with spending cash.

Okay, so your advice for macros is to just use /macros for the basics, and steer into the /jamba-macro for complicated usage. I think I'll have to bit the bullet and create 5 macros on each account.

Can't I somehow just copy them?

If I'm creating lots of macros, I'd prefer to FTL I think, since I'm already going through the pains of setting up my keymaps..

Hi, I'm using the latest version of Jamba and can not seem to figure out the Push feature.

This pushes all of the settings from my master to the slaves correct? When I push the slaves do not seem to get any of the settings. Is there anything obvious I could be doing wrong?

Are your Main and Slaves listed in the team window and your main is set to the master across all toons?

They were not, problem solved, thanks a lot.

What's the best way to have my slaves target the masters target?

I didn't think I needed to /assist the master every time, they seem to target things randomly, sometimes works sometimes doesn't.

When I alt tab to that WoW client that won't attack (even though he has something targetted) without hitting anything and alt tab back to my master he'll instantly start attacking like he should. I can't figure this out

Just noticed they're getting "invalid target" even though the target enemy is valid ...

Jamba 0.7b released - changes listed below:

Core: Communications

* Hopefully fixed bug where teams in battlegrounds were not communicating correctly. Please tell me if you are still having problems after this fix...

Quest: Watcher

* New option to send quest progress messages to a message area (party, default chat, etc).
* New option to show/hide quest watcher window with two new slash commands, /jamba-quest-watcher show and /jamba-quest-watcher hide

Core: Message Area

* Messages areas of party / raid / guild / officer were printing erroneous errors. Why has no one complained about this before? No one uses it!?

Imagine for a sec, a priest has a macro that heals. You want it to attack. You don't use /assist or a target option in your macros. You push your attack button and the priest doesn't have a target, so does nothing. You press the heal button and your priest still doesn't have a target, so it puts the heal in it's "hand". Your priest's cursor gets the spell and you can click on who it would go on. Then you go to cast a spell again and you either get an invalid target (you are trying to put a heal spell on a mob) or you get nothing.

You pretty much have to put in an /assist or a /cast [@focus-target] Spell in every spell you want to cast. You can get around this if you put in a generic target button first, then you can just put in spell buttons. But if you don't target every single time, you pretty much get random results. I HATE targeting mobs, so I put in cast options in 90% of my spells (/cast [@focus-target] Spell). You do need to do /assist for any channeled spell, auto-shot or wand.

How that helps, and good luck.

Lol, well I obviously never used it until today!

What is the message area function again?

What is the message area function again?

In certain Jamba module's settings, you will find a dropdown box called "Message Area". There is one in the quest watcher. Any messages the module sends will go to the designated message area. Jamba has a default message area that sends messages to the default chat window and this is what most people use.

You can add new message areas - like party, guild, guild officers, raid, directly whisper the master, or if you have Parrot or MSBT installed, you can send messages to an area on the screen that you have defined in Parrot / MSBT.

You can find the message area settings in /jamba -> Advanced -> Core: Message Display.

Hope that helps. If you use the MSBT / Parrot option and you want your text to look prettier, please let me know. I'm keen to work on that area of the program...
