Problem - Boxed toons don't attack anymore

Hey guys ^_^ So, I'm about 99.999999% sure it's something I did without knowing it; here's the issue.

When I first loaded Kissassist, it worked great. Tank pulled, team nuked, healer healed, and ench did it's thing (low level, so he mostly sat there looking pretty). Now though, the tank (my manual driver) will run everything fine, but the alts just sit there. I loaded BoxHud to see what macro's each alt was running, and after a /dge /mac kissassist, they all loaded it, then unloaded it. They follow me around and everything is fine... except they don't actually do anything.

What I'm trying to accomplish: I want to manually control my SK (when running KA he just runs out, grabs something and comes back to the camp region... I can't control him at all) and have my boxed toons ready to blow stuff up when I get back with a mob. Let me know what I need to get you to help figure this out! Thank you guys so much in advance, and please note that today is my wedding day, so I probably won't be able to update any requests today xD

My list:

Macro: Tutorial.mac, KA, PoKScribe, BuffBot2, Max Beg, newtoon.mac
Lua: Mob List, Magellan, Skill Skillup, Lootly, Boxhd, Button Master, (Mighty) Lua Event Manager
 
Wedding day? Not what I expected to hear on this forum this morning. I hope it goes well for you! :xd:

The issue sounds like you may not have the assist set right. Either make your alts target your sk before running Mac or use some commands like this on them
From wiki:
/mac kissassist assist Bob
/mac kissassist assist Bob 98
/mac kissassist puller BobTank
/mac kissassist tank
 
Congrats on the wedding!

If you want to control the SK manually, then I would recommend not running KA on him or check this portion of the KA wiki - https://www.redguides.com/docs/projects/kissassist/#manual-mode-everything-off . Your description sounds like you are running him in Tank/PullerTank mode

For the rest of the toons, I would try postleaf's suggestion to make sure they are using the correct role. You may need to toggle /chase on or /camphere on for them depending on what you want them to do though.

I would also make sure their MeleeDistance in your [Melee] section is larger than the CampRadius in your [General] section. This way they will engage when you return to that campradius with your SK and mob.

Hey, you never know what you'll read on a forum LOL. It went great, thank you!! And thank you for the assist... pun intended. Now they're all assisting my tank with the melee, which is much better than nothing before lol

So, they're all auto-attacking now, however, they're not casting spells. My group is SK, 3x Mage, Enc, Clr. I had to enable their melee in the melee section of their .ini files for them to attack. Their spells section is all set properly, but no casting is done.
 
Post your ini files. Start with 1 of the mages (I assume they're all copies). Make sure you don't include character names.
This is my mage ini file. I think I found the problem though... I just looked in the spell dps section, and I noticed... I updated the ini from a copy of a lvl 5 mage .ini file, but I don't have those spells on my bar xD I should run to POK and run the /scribe command lol. I'll post back here after I do that and make sure it works.

Maybe they have just fallen out of love with you. It happens. It's nobody's fault. Have you noticed your Berserker sleeping on the couch more? Is your Rogue just not as intimate as they used to be? You may have to breakdown and start a Pet group.
