Request - Autogroup?

[Thatguy27]

Okay, so I have searched but I have not found anything like it. Was curious about a macro that is kindve paired with the MQAutoLogin. Where you can login say you SK/CLR/ENC/WIZ/WIZ/WIZ and upon login itll automatically group them as well as set MT/MA/Puller/Looter designations that you have preset in an INI. Just a thought. It would strictly be a convenience thing, oh but how convenient it would be.

If this already exists, ignore me.

This sounds like something server_charname.cfg (Executed when this character enters the world) could easily do.
You would be able to /invite 5 other chars. (Which would accept it if you have mq2autoaccept loaded) Could even make a /delay statement in there that waits 60 seconds or whatever until they are all in game, I'll reward 200 redcents to whoever post better details and a example wrapped in the code tags.

MQ2AutoGroup plugin auto accepts invite requests from authorized toons.

Generally I get it set up, then make an ingame hotkey "/pause 010, /invite toon1" and just ass lines. You get 5 lines of hotkey macro, and can only add 5 additional toons to your group max... so works out.

Then if you change up your regular group, you just update the ingame macro as you go along.

Otherwise... your groups look kinda funky when you log in 10-20-30 toons as a time =)

Ive done it that way, I didn't know you can have 2 commands on a line, I thought it was 1 per. So I had 3 hotkeys which can get tedious to hit/maintain as well as took up an excess amount of space I didn't want on my screen. The main thing I was thinking is just plain convenience of autologin, grab beverages, hit the bathroom, and get ready for my gaming session. Then coming back to my group already grouped up and ready to rock!

@EQMule I generally don't go fudding around with things. I struggle getting INIs working right, much less any sort of code! Would be awesome to if someone put something together, id happily give up like a Krono or something in donation if they setup a plugin/macro that worked!

/plugin mq2autoaccept load

then go to MQ2AutoAccept.ini within your /Release folder and copy/paste this stuff

[TOONNAME_Settings]
Enabled=1
Translocate=0
Anchor=0
Trade=1
TradeAlways=0
TradeReject=0
Group=1
Raid=1

and

[TOONNAME_Names]
Toon1=1
Toon2=1
Toon3=1
Toon4=1
Toon5=1
Toon6=1

You'll need to make 6 different Names and 6 different Settings. Replacing TOONNAME with the name of each character and Toon1/2/3/4/5/6 with the name of each of your group members. Using this every one of your group members will automatically trade with each other and group with each other regardless who invites. This should be the easiest way since you don't want to mess with too much stuff. Then do as Warlock said and make a hotkey:

/invite Toon1
/invite Toon2
/invite Toon3
/invite Toon4
/invite Toon5

As far as not wanting to mess with too much stuff I mean as in write it, test it, debug, etc. If a macro/plug is proven to work and its broke down barney style like you just did than I'm all for editing things!

How about, all toons in game, in group, in eqbc. (Or you can manually add them to config or run on each char).

/bcga //plugin mq2autoaccept
/bcga //autoaccept on
/bcga //autoaccept add invitername
/bcga //autoaccept save

Logout
Create servername_invitername.cfg in macroquest root
Enter the following in that file and save:

/invite char1
/invite char2
/invite char3
/invite char4
/invite char5

So far, I can't get any delay to work in inviting, so the tank has to load last. If I move him to the bottom of autologin, the other chars are loaded before he gets in and runs this.
/delay does not delay in the config. and multiline with a delay does not work. It's too early to figure out another way to make him pause, I'll circle back in a bit.

Not the root folder the Configs folder right? +1 For this I have sent some redcents for the best solution so far.

Create a macro with the following:

/invite char1
/invite char2
/invite char3
/invite char4
/invite char5

This is all I do to invite all my guys. I just don't have it set to auto invite on login. Takes 1 minute of prep work, and after that, just a press of a hotkey every time you log in. I take is a step further and have all my characters added to autoaccept anyways just for the easy of trading and accepting TLs/sacs, etc. This makes it so if I wanna change groups on the fly I can as well, from any character.

Good luck with your quest though!

Ive done it that way, I didn't know you can have 2 commands on a line, I thought it was 1 per.

Just to follow up with that.

With ingame macros (being totally legit with only EQ commands) you can generally only get 1 command to work per line... EXCEPT the pause. (leave it to SOE to make things confusing as hell)

IF you put the pause on the same line of the command, it HAS to go first... then have a comma, then the command. The amount of pause you put in... happens AFTER the command. Thus

/pause 010, /invite toon1

means "invite toon1, then pause for 1 second before going to next line"

If you don't put in some sort of delay/pause, the server ends up losing somebody in the invite process. Thus

/pause 010, /invite toon1
/pause 010, /invite toon2
/pause 010, /invite toon3
/pause 010, /invite toon4
/invite toon5

will invite all 5 toons, with a 1 second pause inbetween invites. (the pause works in tenths of a second.. so 010 is 10 tenths of a second, or 1 second)

This sort of hotkey function can be utilized in a number of other ways, like casting for instance. On of the hotbuttons on my necro looks like

/pause 031, /cast 3
/pause 025, /cast 4
/pause 033, /cast 5
/pause 037, /cast 6
/cast 7

With the pause delays being how much time it takes to cast the spell and recover.

Not that someone using MQ needs to do this of course, but there are times it is helpful to do them the old fashioned way, not to mention know about them incase someone is accusing you of using macros... "Well OF COURSE I am... don't you know how to set up an ingame macro to cast spell? --eg--"

so any idea why if you try to invite toons using /multiline ; /invite 'name' ; /invite 'name' etc etc. you will you "player X was not found for ever single name except the last one in the command it will invite....wtf is up with that?

Syntax....
correct - /multiline ; /invite toon1;/invite toon2;/invite toon3;/invite toon4;/invite toon5
space after /multiline and first ; only.... then NO MORE SPACES

As always,
Playbetter

 

[Incognito]

As an alternative, hell even contrary, although certainly not intentional, I always use spaces like thus:

/multiline ; /invite toonone ; /invite toontwo ; /invite toonthree ; /invite toonfour ; /invite toonfive

I have always used a space before and after the specified delineator for any multiline statement.

Same, and I think it makes it easier to read also.

 

[janktron]

Same here about the spaces... I thought it was required. Does this actually work without the spaces when inviting though? I'm not at home and can't test

edit* finally got around to testing it..and it works. thanks playbetter XD

as for autogrouping, after setting up autoaccept like drcrimzon said I created servername_charname.cfg files (inside configs folder in release directory) for the leader of all my groups. inside each cfg i have

/multiline ; /timed 600 /invite toon1;/invite toon2;/invite toon3;/invite toon4;/invite toon5

and inside the cfg file for my raid leader, i have

;/raidinvite group2leader;/raidinvite group3leader

after all the group invites.

i have the raid invite confirmation box unchecked on the 2 toons i send raidinvites to so they autoaccept. Forms my entire raid as i log in XD

 

[Frimp]

Or even simpler- I made an in game macro for invites-=

/invite toon1
/invite toon2
/invite toon3
/invite toon4
/invite toon5

Then, because I use isboxer, I hit broadcast then type /invite, which also accepts invites, and the group is formed.
