A little something I have been working on...

[Jafula]

Heh, thanks everyone.

First, this sounds awesome. I hate asking questions, but oh well. Can you only show the overall progress for the whole team on a quest, or does it expand every quest until it is done? I don't know what would be best, but maybe (just maybe) of quests that only have <2 items to complete you can give us an option to only show the team progress. For quests that have >2 items you can let it show each person's progress.

Or just let us click to shrink down all the players info so it only shows team. Then if you click it again, it expands it. That would let us decide when to see the players and when to see the team.

I am just imagining a quest guy saying, "Go get my tools". Simple, small, no hunting around, just go to his shack and get them. I don't need help with this, just need to make sure everyone gets it (not miss-click and "Object is busy" that I didn't notice and miss one). But it fills my screen with 5 lines of 0/1's.

For bigger things, "Go get me 10 stupid drops items that have 20% drop rate." Holy hell yeah, I need to track each players progress.

So, maybe an OPTION to have quests with <2 objectives to auto not expand at the start. But have a click ability (shift-click, right-click, any type of click you want, just pick one) to expand or colapse a quest line to only show team progress.

My initial thoughts track Owltoid's. I built it so that it only shows quests that you choose to track. I also can see the value in being able to just see the totals and not the individual characters amounts. It's something I want and I'll probably add that as a feature later (maybe sooner than later)!

It's a tad complicated to manage internally, making sure text ends up on the correct row and making sure the scroll bar behaves. Hiding a row would screw up the scrolling and I'd rather get it out to you guys that spend a day trying to do that.

Instead of getting that complicated, ElectronDF, would you be happy to just be able to remove a quest from tracking? That way the end user could decide what is important and what isn't, instead of having Jamba try to figure it out.

Jafula, this looks incredible. Very excitted to try it out!

Agreed, just track the quests you want to see.

This is AMAZING...

Goodbye TomQuest2... HELLO NEW JAMBA FEATURE!

I use TomQuest2 for this functionality alone... =) I am a happy muffin.

Question... could you add an optional alert to chat when a toon picks up an item for a quest?

[PARTY] Toon1: 5/6 bear meat

or something? I use the addon QuestAnnounce for this feature and it comes in handy when I don't want to have to peruse through my quest tracker.

I could do this; but I thought my quest tracker would be better! Bug me about it in a couple of weeks and I'll try and poke an option in for you.

Nice Ja! Nothing more annoying than doing a quest and finding out one of your slaves missed it. Did that a few times while leveling up. Go to turn them in was like WTF is my slaves quest OH nooooooo....

[Akoko]

Thank you! I'm one of those people who doesn't realize that one of my characters hasn't even picked up the beginning of a huge quest chain until the time it's finished on all the others...

[Jafula]

Jamba-0.6 is out. Looking forward to your feedback.

[Maxion]

Yaaaay!

[Silence]

This is a very welcome addition...

[OzPhoenix]

Jafula 10/10 matey. This new feature will be HUGELY handy to have (as described in the other thread).

I look forward to trying it out, especially for the odd profession quest, like the JC'ers one each day.

I believe there has been a change in the windows for Jamba 0.6.
I normally have my Items bar and the team window on the left side of my screen. When I open the character screen, to change items and such, the slots that have the same corrdinates as the Jamba windows won't show tooltips or allow me to interact with them. It is as if the Jamba windows are "always on top" and do not allow for click through. I am not seeing any options to alter this behaviour.

Is this intended?

The jamba quest watcher makes everything else unclickable in a rather large area up to as large as it can be when fully expanded according to your settings. I already posted this in the main jamba thread and I hope Jafula fixes it soon. For now I have just disabled the quest watcher on all toons.

Max, to work around that for now, you should be able to go into JambaQuest.lua, find "function AJM:CreateQuestWatcherFrame()" and change the line

frame:SetFrameStrata("LOW")

to

frame:SetFrameStrata("BACKGROUND")

and see if that fixes it. You'll have to move other stuff out from in front of JambaQuestWatcher if you want to interact with it but it should put it behind the other frames. If BACKGROUND doesn't work, the list of options for that setting are here: http://www.wowwiki.com/UITYPE_FrameStrata

Hope that helps you until Jafula has a chance to look at it.

Ugh
