I've seen the previous threads on this issue and understand that it's an issue with there being no mq2autoloot available.
I have set LootOn=0 but it doesn't appear to pick it up consistently.
I commonly see /mac Kissassist Tank work ok (but not always), but all the other characters in the group show the error when running /mac Kissassist assist ${Group.MainAssist} (I have group roles set).

The threads that I've read highlight the cause, but don't appear to point to a solution.

Is there a way to for KA to recognise that it is running on an EMU server i.e. no mq2autoloot, and ensure that the setting LootOn=0 is picked and the variable set correctly?

NB: in providing information about which classes are affected and what roles, I've only selected the ones I've tested. I would expect to see the issue with all classes and all roles.
 
I know it looks like it is kissassist that is kicking out that error, but it is a plugin that is trying to use LootOn. If you notice the line(s) below the Warning message:
/doevents flush
/declare XSlotTotal int outer 20

The Macro just happened to be on those lines when an error was generated. The Macro engine just sees an error and kicks out a message, even though the macro did not generate the error. Notice the 2 lines that Kissassist is giving the warning on. Neither of those reference LootOn, and since you can only have one macro running at a time. Then something else is trying to use LootOn and 99% of the time it is a plugin.

I went though the macro and commented out any function call that stems from a LootOn reference as well as the ninjja loot include.
Felt a bit like an old timey barber severing limbs.
Works like a charm since ... ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯
