Switchable macro sets with variables - Addon - Jamba-Macro

[Slats]

OK reading it - it sounds cool. What I might use it for is setting up new teams.

I use 5 macros bound F8 - F12. These are also linked to my PiP Swapping in Keyclone. All my characters make F8 set my focus to my main, and used to do a /jamba-master Slats but they are all broken now since JambaDev.

I'd love to be able to do something like have my macro set where I can copy it, change the names of the mains and the slaves and then push them out to my clones so I dont have to setup macros on all my characters or waste bars slots. Also my big button which accepts trades, group invites, rez,s etc if I could instantly have those all setup on every new team using macro sets somehow.

I guess if I could write a macro like

/focus MASTER
/focus CLONE1
etc

And then when I built my teams in Jamba I could tag the various masters, and the various clone 1's. Then when I deployed a macro set it would simpley populate the macros with who was online in those slots at the time.

That way if I want to swap my Pally for say a DK, everyones macros continue to function, my big buttons continue to function, etc and I have very little setup to do to get a team working other than adding them into the pool of availible characters and tag what function they perform.

Sorry if this doesn't make any sense. I hope it does.

Ah, my bad, the current Jamba-Dev and Jamba-Macro are incompatible as I discovered trying to set it up on a different computer than my development box. That'll be why nothing works. I'll put the fix out with Jamba Dev Update 8.

Ah, the setmaster thing, I think I changed it for some reason. Try

/jamba-team iammaster <tag>

This is definitely doable. At the moment, Jamba-Macro does not use character tags, but I will change it to process them.

If a tag is available on a character that is the same as a variable name, the tag will take priority over the variable (if there even is a variable with the same name). If more than one toon has the same tag, one of those toons will get put in the macro, but the other will not.

The great thing about Jamba 0.5 is that the master tag follows the Jamba master and is unique across all the toons.

This update that uses tags will come out with Jamba-Dev 0.5 Update 8. Look foward to our feedback once you have had a chance to play with it.
