Problem - Kissassist lagging

[Turaj Steelfist]

So I encountered a new issue that started last night. I have a hotkey to turn on kissassist for 5 of my 6 toons (i prefer to control tank). That hotkey looks like /bca //mac kissassist. OK you say that is correct what seems to be the issue? Well the issue started lastnight as I said. At first I noticed my 6th box started lagging behind when moving from pint A to B. Still not a major issue, could be lag. Then I noticed this strange thing when I clicked my /bca //end hotkey the macro did not end unless I hit it twice. Then I would get a message several seconds later saying "cannot end a macro when one is not running." I figured out that the first click was causing a delay and the second click obeyed my command without delay so in essence it was just another possible "lag" issue. Now when I click my start hotkey it takes 66 seconds for my group to start the macro. I understand lag issues, but these just started yesterday and the only changes I have made were update my .ini's with the next lvl spells. Any insight on what is going on? it is virtually unplayable like this.

double check so that you dont have any log going on, any macro debug or maybe log for any damage parsing maybe.

eqbc can and will lag out over time - it becomes particularly noticable on the last toon to connect (often the 6th toon )
you can run eqbc in high priority mode, run eqbcs2 (that's what i do), or use dannet instead as solutions

This happens to me regularly (probably because I'm lazy and don't close EQBC when I am done playing).

I just issue a /bcaa //bccmd reconnect from the main toon, and it resets the connections and all the problems go away. I had problems running DanNet across multiple computers so I'm stuck with EQBC for now!

As for the OP, Sic's way is probably smarter, so I'd go with that. If you're like me and haven't upgraded to EQBCS2, my lazy workaround is there!
