Assisting on PRO setup (lack thereof)

[fpsware]

Recently I decided to recreate my ISBoxer profile, I cleared everything and started from scratch. I used the wizard to create the profile PRO setup.

The default setup (non Pro, ISB42 - Combat Broadcast Hotkeys) setup is working perfectly. I press 1, the characters assist and fire off a spell.



I moved on to the virtualised PRO setup (something I've used for years), made the appropriate key maps, assigned characters etc, as you do.... for the most part everything works as it should, virtualization is working perfectly. But, automatic assisting is not! I can press ALT+A and everyone assist just fine, but I want this to be automatic.

Looking into the virtualised keymaps I can see there is no baked in assist, so I added it to, a simply copy'n'paste from the Combat Broastcast example into my virtualised keymap....



Now the leader appears to try and assist from other party members. I select a target, fire off a spell (all party members do the same) and I (the leader) swap to another target and cast a spell it re targets whatever the follows are targeting.

None of the screenshots in the prior post are related to the Pro Setup, as both "Combat Broadcast" and "Combat Broadcast Hotkeys" are part of the base setup and should be removed when using the Pro Setup. Also, it's going to be easier if you just share your profile when you have an issue with something, since screenshots never show the entire picture, while your profile does (because it's your profile, duh).

With that said, integrating assist into the Pro Setup is covered right near the end of my first video of the Pro System video series.

Thanks! Appreciate it.

And that is why you don't make forum posts first thing in the morning before you coffee
