    Default

    The method I suggested, works with multiple teams, and only sends the IWT to the melee toons.

    The basic idea is that you'll have two IWT keys.
    The first for all members of every team, mainly for non-combat actions such as quest acceptance or taking a flight path.
    The second for only the melee members of your team, which you'd want to not affect casters.

    Create an action target group for the melee toons, mine is Melee IWT.
    Then create an IWT mapped key, which is different from the first/existing IWT; this one targets only members of the Melee IWT group.
    And a final mapped key is a toggle for this second (Melee Only IWT key), so we can enable and disable the melee IWT.

    Then we build the Melee IWT into our standard FTL DPS keys.
    In the case of my druid team, three spam keys were plenty, but you could do as few or as many as you require.

    This gets us....
    a) Target a quest npc, and press the normal FTL Assist Me / IWT key, and the slaves assist and everyone interacts with the quest npc; or
    b) Spam the normal attack keys, 1 through =, which also spams our Melee IWT key... so members of our Melee IWT group swarm the target, but other toons aren't affected in any way; or
    c) Press our toggle key, which disables the Melee IWT mapped key, so when we spam our 1 through = keys, there is no command for the melee to IWT swarm the target.



    For the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 etc DPS keys, I modify the existing FTL DPS Keys.

    The default action is (on key release):
    a) FTL Assist Me (Non-active toons assist the active toon).
    b) Send the same key to all windows.

    The modified key action is (on press):
    a) FTL Assist me (Non-active toons assist the active toon).
    b) Send IWT to the members of the group Melee IWT.
    And (on release):
    a) FTL Assist Me (Non-active toons assist the active toon).
    b) Send the same key to all windows.

    So modifying our 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 keys...
    Does not change their action at all, for any toon who not a member of the Melee IWT (Action Target Group).



    The normal IWT key, the melee IWT key, and the toggle which enables/disables the melee IWT key are all placed in the General Keymap, as I'd like these to apply to all teams.
