Switchable macro sets with variables - Addon - Jamba-Macro

[Jafula]

Would it be possible to have more than one macro set active? I was thinking along the lines of having a generic macro set that I use on both my teams, for instance focus macros where I only change the variable sets. Then for each team they have their own specific macro set.

What I am currently doing is just copying my current macro set to a new one for the second team but if I add a new macro I will have to add it to both macro sets.

PS: Where in NZ are you? Have to buy you a beer or 10.

PPS: The item bar is so amazing I built a shrine to it.

Hmmm, this is tempting to do. I can see it getting harder to manage as you get more teams. I could make a new page that lists macro sets (and associated variable sets) where you could activate or deactivate them as you see fit.

Keep doing what you are doing and if I can find the time, I'll see if I can do it. No promises.

Glad you like the item bar!

I think I found a bug as well, copying a macro set messes up keybinds or something in the new macro set. I can try and narrow down exactly where it went wrong but for right now I can give you the steps I followed.

1. I created a variable set - Characters
2. I created a macro set - Focus
3. I created focus macros and assigned keybindings
4. I used the Focus macro set with the Characters variable set
5. I copied the Focus macro set to a Shaman macro set
6. I deleted the Focus macro set
7. I used the Shaman macro set with the Characters variable set

The output when the macros are used seems ok but when I hit the keys the macros don't trigger at all. The reason I think it is keybind related is that I have a macro bound to F12 but when I hit F12 it just opens a bag which is the default keybind.

I managed to fix the problem by re-creating the macros. I had to change the name though, even deleting the macro and creating it with the same name didn't work.

I'm late in posting this cause I just got back into multiboxing, but this is awesome that you finally implemented this into Jamba. I remember when this was only a dream a year ago when you first came out with Jamba. Awesome job man. Thanks for all your hard work in the mboxing community.

Awesome. Welcome back! Thanks so much for the inspiration and helping me form the idea in the first place. Much appreciated.

Ok,

I am having a hard time figuring out how to use this properly. Here is an example (trying to keep it as simple as possible):

I have 2 characters with the tags:

1. Pally
2. Priest

I have a macro called mount:

/use #GroundMount#

How do I setup the variables and run the "jamba-macro use" command so that the "GroundMount" variable is replaced with the following on each character?

1. Pally = Summon Charger
2. Priest = Swift Green Hawkstrider

EDIT: I know I can define the "GroundMount" variable on both characters and give it a different value on each characters but that means I cannot push my variables across anymore. Is there a way to define all variables on all the characters and each character knows which variable applies to them?

EDIT 2: Alternatively, is it possible to exclude certain variables from being pushed? I don't want my "GroundMount" variable on the pally being pushed to the priest and overwriting the priest value.

[Jafula]

What you do, is declare the variable twice, each one with a different tag.

Variables

Name Tag Value
groundmount priest Swift Green Hawkstrider
groundmount pally Summon Charger

You make sure you tag your priest with the priest tag and your pally with the pally tag.

Your macro

/use #groundmount#

will have groundmount substituted correctly according to the tag that each character has.

Does that make sense?

P.S. Make sure you are using the latest build (12 I think).

Ok, so when the macros are built variables with the "all" tag will be used by everyone otherwise they will use a variable with a tag that the character has as well, correct?

Will try it tonight.

Cheers, it will be a bug. I have made a ticket out of your post. Thanks sooo much for mentioning it.
