MQ2Events - Ini-determined, event driven.
MQ2Events allows you to configure a reaction to any text-based event. For example, if you want to /cry when the text "has become ENRAGED" appears, you're in the right place.
If the event doesn't make text, such as entering a body of water, you should use MQ2React.
Commands:
Ini file name:
MQ2Events_CharacterName.ini i.e. MQ2Events_Bob
or you can have a generic "MQ2Events.ini" if no character name ini is defined

2 Common Issues:
1. Ensure you have created your MQ2Events_ToonName.ini file in your RELEASE folder for legacy MQ2 or CONFIG folder for MacroQuest
2. Ensure the file is "MQ2Events_ToonName.ini" where ToonName is your dude like MQ2Events_Bob.ini --- you can't have MQ2Events_Bob.ini.ini or MQ2Events_Bob.ini.txt to verify your file type is correct:
open your release/config folder, Click the "View" tab
Move over to the right and select "File Name Extensions"
Then you should see your MQ2Events_ToonName.ini files
This is correct
