Yes. That will work. I am so sorry, I feel bad. You take time to make a mod and I ask for lolipops on Tuesdays but only after a Monday that is a holiday. Thank you. I noticed text up there, but I didn't read it. Sorry. I didn't want to make a lot of work for you, just trying to make things easier for me. I appreciate what you have built and want to thank you for updating it. :thumbsup:

Mmmm, lolipops. Making things easier for you is what this addon is about! (You're welcome.) I'd like to have been able to update it faster than I've been able, but its getting there.

The one thing I might suggest for the future is having the quest features separate for dailies and regular quests. I think the dailies are marked differently so this would be possible? I would likely choose follow master for the dailies but not for regular quests. Maybe it's a moot point at L80 since I am not sure I actually do any quests beyond the dailies anymore.

I think the new system will allow for this, where any team member can be the quest master.

Also, I use a mod called Questitembar. This makes a bar with all quest items. I found this to be quite useful for dailies etc. My dailies macro takes care of most of my needs but there are cases where I still use the questitembar. I noticed this in another quest tracker addon that I have but don't know where it was from since I disabled it (maybe questhelper? dunno). Maybe this is beyond the scope of Jamba.

I think the default UI does this now; how do you imagine it working in a multibox setting? Does clicking it on the master make all the slaves /use it as well?

I will have to play around with the settings then when the new version is out =)

As for the questitembar, yes it would have to be keybound to be of any real multibox use. The current addon does not have this at the moment. I am not sure if the default UI can do this or not. I know you can drag an item to a bar and use it, but can it automatically populate a bar/button with an item that is introduced into your inventory?

I think if you watch quests, it adds a clickable item link for the quest item next to the quest in the watch window (unless it is one of my addons doing it).

What do you currently have for the Follow options? I was wondering if there could be a UI setup for the team list so we can configure how the looknfeel is. For instance having the follow buttons (the ones that turn green and red) only and an overlay on those follow buttons where you can show name (or abbreviation of) and XP %. I have started to play around with the UI in the current Jamba so if I get anywhere I will post some results.

There is a new Jamba API in 0.5 that will send messages to registered addons when follow changes. That way addon authors can build simple addons that display the follow options the way they want them to be displayed. I will provide a simple addon that will duplicate what is already available in Jamba 0.4 and maybe I'll add other options...

The changes to the UI look really good, it seems much more straightforward now from the screenshots posted.

That's fantastic Jafula, great job! Looking forward to giving .5 a whirl.

First off, thank you for this great addon Jafula.

Second I do have a request, not regarding the quests or anything, it's perfect(especialy if you add the slaves pick random(best) choice if none selected!). But regarding the group window, I was wondering if it was possible to add an option to A. Rearrange team order so the list is identical in the jamba box on all toons, and B. add mana to the show Health option.

Right now though, I'm having this strange thing where the health of one toon does not show up on the main characters screen and on another toons box doesnt show the health of two characters, maybe I have to reinstall Jamba to fix this?

When do you plan to release this build? I actually find the current quest ui confusing, no matter what options I pick ( i dont want it to auto accpet) he just wizzes through the quest screen.
