    Default Jamba Follow issue

    Hey i have been having issues with the new team that i boosted with my pre purchases and Outside of group my toons all auto follow a random toon and i cannot get them in line. My hunch is that my name scheme is causing confusion possibly? is this a known issue or something i am overlooking by chance :\ so lost lol

    My toons are named

    Nezoria
    Nezoriaone
    Nezoriatwo
    Nezoriathree
    Nezoriafour
    Nezoriafive
    Nezoriasix
    Nezoriaseven

    I had a similar issue with this before on my hunter teams and eventually tried name changing my main toon to something different and had no issue after that :\ would love to avoid another change lol

    Yes, it is a known issue with the WoW game (and a few others) that if you have two toons, where one has a name which is a cutdown version of another toons name, then the macro system can get confused as it uses partial name matching.

    In other words, Nezoria could match any of the 8 toon names you have listed there.

    It does, and, in theory, you could alter the follow and assist macros in ISBoxer to look something like this:

    Code:
    /targetexact {FTL}
    /follow
    Code:
    /targetexact {FTL}
    /assist

    Where can you alter this? I tried finding it yesterday within ISboxer. I have a similar problem

    The macros are found in the Game Helpers/World of Warcraft portion of the ISboxer tree structure in the upper left window pane and displayed in the lower left window pane once you highlight Game Helpers World of Warcraft. You can then edit the macro in the lower right window pane. The mapped that actually runs the Action to call the FTL macro is found under Key Maps/ ISB42 - WoW. Its named Follow Me.

    As a side note, the [exists] option forces exact name.

    /tar [exists] same as /targetexact

    The good thing about [exists] that it will work for other things such as /follow that dont have a /followexact

    It doesn't fix your issue because it wasn't meant to fix your issue—it was meant to fix Nezreck's issue, which is different than yours.
