I spent some time looking for an answer to this question but have not been able to find a clear answer. Again, my question is as follows: how do i make a hotkey that will send the request to the MQ chat window in game? For example, I am tired of having to type in /mac kissassist and /end on all my boxes inside the MQ window directly. It would be very convenient to be able to simply make hotkeys on each of my toons that will automatically send the requests to the window. I am just not sure how to direct the hotkey text commands to MQ window. Tried making a hotkey button with /echo /mac kissassist but it just sends the /mac kissassist text to the MQ window and does not actually initiate anything, which makes sense as it is an echo command. Can anyone help me out here?

Hail, we're RedGuides. We want you to play six (yes, 6!) EverQuest characters at once. We have scripts and a friendly community to help, please join our playstyle and say hello! 👋 -
We've added LLM sections to our Terms & Rules and Resource Rules, for everyone's sanity & in-game safety.Read more
a. Do not replace your voice with an LLM. This goes for your posts and your scripts. Drafting and editing with a tool is fine, but don't take you out of what you share.
b. Do not replace your EQ character's voice with an LLM. We don't want scripts that speak over/ooc,/shoutor other public channels. This has been an unwritten rule that's kept casino scripts off the site for decades, but we're now compelled to make it clear: keep automated communication private.
Why Does RG Review Scripts?
Nearly every LLM-written Lua script we see is making your character do impossible things, and rarely in a way that's beneficial to you. We've seen heavy server hammering,/targetover impossible distances when/nav spawnwould passively accomplish the same thing, a spawn search that fires 20+ times per second, and other pointless actions that are likely annoying GMs.
You are welcome to use LLMs as a tool to structure, draft, and edit your work, but please read critically before hitting/lua run

I just simply make a hotkey of /mac kissassist
Or sometimes even /bca //mac kissassist if I'm on the tank and have a team behind me

First and foremost be sure that the "server (EQBCS) and a client (MQ2EQBC)" are running. The EQBCS is an executable program you run from your desktop screen, while MQ2EQBC is a plugin that is loaded in MQ2. Also each character has to be connected via /bccmd connect <server> <port> <password>
/echo /mac kissassist <-- should only be seen in the MQ2Chat window from the character screen typed from
/bc //echo /mac kissassist <-- will be seen in the MQ2Chat window by all toons connected to the EQBCS localized server.
