i can get all toons out of the task with raidutils /taskremove all - but how can i select (for example): "into the hills" using eqbc commands

thanks
 
the same way you would normally get the task and broadcast it

/bcaa //target Gribble Grobblenobber
/bcaa //say investigate
/bcaa //say when

just be aware all your toons will hail the quest at the same time
 
hmmm, whatever i say (for example): ready - it opens up a window with those three tasks. how can i select one of those? and to use /bct is the better option and to click every single toon - so timing is not the same..
 
I dont know the name of the specific window you are referencing, i dont think it is the TaskWnd. You can see which windows are open by doing: /windows open, then you can figure out the name of the window and do /window name. From there, you can select and push the button. So like if i wanted to select the first task on the taskwnd:

Rich (BB code):
/notify TaskWnd TASK_TaskList listselect 1

Then you have to /notify the ok button or whatever that button is called for that screen:
Rich (BB code):
/nomodkey /notify TaskWnd OkButton leftmouseup

Those are just examples, and not the actual command because i dont know the names of the windows off hand.
 
Try these and change 1 to whattever number in the list your mission is.

Rich (BB code):
/notify TaskSelectWnd SelectWnd listselect 1
Rich (BB code):
/notify TaskSelectWnd TSEL_AcceptButton leftmouseup
 
windows name is "TaskSelectWnd" compared log file before and after opening.

sadly "//notify TaskSelectWnd SelectWnd listselect 2" or 3 isn't working so far - but i'm sure it's getting closer)

"//notify TaskSelectWnd TSEL_AcceptButton leftmouseup" presses the button...

oh - and an add: how can you get a toon to press a button from the hotbars via eqbc?
