Innerspace Windowsnapper, Repeater, and a little extra sumptin sumptin

[Dragonshadow]

So after talking with Zanthor and Lax yesterday about some things, I decided to swap over to the Hydra set up in game. After working out some bugs, all I can say is wow. I kept it as basic as possible, being overly cautious about what I am doing, and keeping the TOS in mind. All I am using is Window Swapper, and repeater with a blacklist. One thing I don't like about Hydra is that you have to spam the focustarget macro whenever you change targets, that was one of the major selling points with a straight FTL setup. I did come up with a solution to this (assuming Zanthors Hydra setup is followed). It is pretty simple, instead of having a stand alone focustarget macro, just add "/target focustarget" at the begining of all spell macros.

Example:

/target focustarget
/cast Lightning Bolt

This allows for swapping of targets without having to hit an extra button every time.
Just thought I would throw this out there for everyone.

Uhh, not to go too far off topic here, but his hydra setup uses macaroon. And that macro right there, it won't work if your focus is dead correct? Or...?

Personally, I have macros to set my focus target to each of my characters, and my PiP swap will set the focus target -- Zanthor's setup does this as well

Exactly what Lax said. The way that it works is by having macros set up on each client bound to the PiP swap buttons. It took me a few minutes to figure out how Zanthor was explaining it. So every time you swap PiP, the new focus is set on the main client, Jamba does its thing, and all clients fall into line.

PiP Swap keybinds: F1-F5

Main Client Macro
/focus Samam
/jamba setmeasmaster all
/jamba-follow strobeonme all
/script SetView(5);SetView(5);

Slave Macro
/focus Samarn
/script SetView(5);SetView(5);

Macro guide

F1 Samam: F1 - Main, F2- Slave, F3 - Slave, F4 - Slave, F5 - Slave
F2 Samarn: F1 - Slave, F2 - Main, F3 - Slave, F4 - Slave, F5 - Slave
and so on...

Obviously just change the names according to what the main client is

that's basically how i have my focus leader setup working right now, but i haven't really used jamba leader swapping or anything yet (never thought about it much, though now that i think about it, i'm wanting to put it in)
one difference with my setup is instead of:

/target focustarget
 /cast Lightning Bolt

i use

/assist [target=focus, exists]
/cast (spell)

my leader doesn't have a focus, so it ignores the /assist. my leader-switching macros look like:

/clearfocus
/focus toonA

and for the leader, just /clearfocus

btw i've been following some of these IS threads, and i'm pretty sure i want to jump onboard with IS, just waiting to get off my lazy bum and change things up :thumbsup:

/assist [target=focus, exists]
/cast (spell)

You have just given me an idea.

[pengwynman]

/assist [target=focus, exists]
/cast (spell)

glad to hear it :]

btw, that macro does work if your focus is dead, but when you die you lose your target, so you would need to re-target whatever you were targeting. however, i'm pretty sure if you use /assist and your target doesn't have a target, you keep your current target. so if your focus/main dies and your slaves have something targeted, they won't lose the target if you want to keep spamming a spell. correct me if i'm wrong on this of course, i can't test it right this second because i'm at work.

Bumping for awesomeness.

I've updated the 3rd post with my current configuration. The farther I get into this the more customized it's getting. I'm trying to keep everything commented for ease of use, and for ease of troubleshooting since I've had moments of thinking "God, what asshole wrote this?"... and when I'm the asshole who wrote it, that's bad .

The new autolayout tool lax provides is phenominal, it solves most problems before they start. you can read about it on the wiki site linked in the first and third posts, but major props to Lax for that.

Sorry about the slow updates and answers here, I've been spending all my free time actually leveling. I took a bit to add the round robin support since I was trying to do dungeons and 5x thunderstorms was 4x wasted potential without it... I've since gotten 76th and plan to see about grinding a dungeon or two til I'm out of rested XP again, it seems to be building at an unusual rate!

...to allow my X12 key to press two keys on each client. I had previously achieved this same effect with KeyClone but had to program my X-Keys to press two keys. The only reason I bring this up here is full disclosure; I don't feel anything is wrong with this as it's been done many times before in many ways before.

A: Ctrl+A are 2 keys. (I know this is not what you mean, but it's FACT. They ARE 2 keys pressed at once.) As long as there is only one action for each key press, I see nothing wrong with this. But then I don't plan on using that portion of your setup
B: Full disclosure is good. I appreciate this. Thanx.

I am trying to configure 3 clients with whichever has focus in a main area 1920 X 1200 and 3 640 X 400 pip window on the right side. Basically I want to always see client 1 at the top on the right side, client 2 in the middle on the right side and client 3 at the bottom on the right side. I don't want an empty slot where the active client was when it goes to the 1920 X 1200 window.

How would I modify the Multi script to achieve that?
