Spread Slaves Out

[Owltoid]

It's been awhile since my HKN days, but I'm pretty sure your problem is you don't have the keys defined as movement keys in HKN. I don't remember the command, but basically it's not holding down the key like you want, and I stead just pushing it for a fraction of a second. Find that command and you'll be golden.

        <KeyDown Left>
        <KeyDown Down>
    <SendLabel w3>
        <KeyDown Right>
        <KeyDown Down>

<HotkeyUp ScrollLockOn Shift Ctrl 1>
    <SendLabel w2>
        <KeyUp Left>
        <KeyUp Down>
    <SendLabel w3>
        <KeyUp Right>
        <KeyUp Down>

Thanks for the help guys.. This is exactly what I was looking for!

Okay so this thread is 3 years old now, but I had recently been exploring this sort of "formation" movement myself. I thought you could use mouse clicks in conjunction with click-to-move on the slaves to do it but so far haven't had any luck. So far, I've tried the following:

<Hotkey ScrollLockOn Oem1>
    <SendLabel w2>
        <ClickMouse RButton Both Window 50% 50%>
    <SendLabel w3>
        <ClickMouse RButton Both Window 45% 50%>
    <SendLabel w4>
        <ClickMouse RButton Both Window 55% 50%>
    <SendLabel w5>
        <ClickMouse RButton Both Window 60% 50%>

Which doesn't seem to do anything at all, actually. That is, I press the key, HotkeyNet picks it up and apparently executes the macro, but I don't see any sort of response in my slave windows. Based on this thread, it looks like most people just use key movement, but I thought you could make for more interesting formations using click-to-move. I've tried moving the 1st value around a bit to make sure i wasn't clicking too close to the center to cause it to move. Any suggestions as to what I might be doing wrong?

... and I just met Krystallus for the first time... twice he killed 4 of my party in one shot before I researched to figure out wtf was going on, only to find that a solution to the positioning issue would be pretty handy right about now.

Edit: I managed to get the fight done using the key method. I'd still be interested in the mouse solution just for S&G if anyone can help.
