Ok, I have a ranger setup to chain pull. They never chain pull. Debug shows them searching for mobs, starts the validation, and drops out at 1.2 because PullFlag=0. Level 84 Ranger, with 84 paladin having tank role. This happens with a single chain pull target, with 1 non-named mob in camp, @ or below ChainPullHP.

DebugALL from right when mob hits ChainPullHP. It searches, and finds a mob, verifies it, but never gets to FindMobToPull2.0.

Once combat drops, it proceeds to re-run Pull, and pulls fine.

It fails the if @ 5120 due to PullFlag=0. If I /varset PullFlag 1 just before line 5120, chain pull works great. I can't find where/why pullflag is NOT being set to 1 vs when out of combat it's 1. I know this is not a fix, I was just trying to force it to work since I can't find why it's 0 when I'm in combat.
Rich (BB code): 
        /if (${PullMobValid}) {
		    /varset PullFlag 1
            /if (${PullFlag}) {

Here is a quick explanation of what PullFlag is used for. If pull flag is 0 just find a mob and return, If PullFlag=1 then find a mob and then continue with pulling the mob. When in Cambat the pull will call FindMobToPull to try and find a mob to pull and return.

Now here is something you need to consider. The puller will not run off to pull the next mob if the mob is far enough away that the puller won't get exp if the mob in camp dies before the puller returns. The puller will not run off to pull the next mob if the Puller is the mobs agro holder or the puller has more than 50% agro.

Look at this section of code in the Combat routine. The Highlighted Line is most likely the culprit. See Below:

Rich (BB code): 
                /if (${Role.Equal[puller]} && ${ChainPull}) {
                   /if (${Math.Distance[${CampYLoc},${CampXLoc}:${Spawn[=${MainAssist}].Y},${Spawn[=${MainAssist}].X}]}<=75) {
                        /if (!${ChainPullHold} && ${MobCount}<2 && !${Me.XTarget[${XTSlot2}].ID} && ${If[${Target.Named},0,1]}==1) {
                            /if (${Target.ID} && ${Target.PctHPs} < ${ChainPullHP}) {
                                /call FindMobToPull 0
                                /if (${Macro.Return}>0 && ${Spawn[${ChainPullTemp}].Distance}<${Math.Calc[${PullRange}+400]} && ${Target.AggroHolder.Name.NotEqual[${Me.CleanName}]} && ${Me.PctAggro}<50) {
                                    /if (${UseMQ2Melee}) /squelch /melee melee=0
                                    /delay 5

                                    /if (${UseMQ2Melee}) /squelch /melee melee=1
                                    /varset ChainPull 2

                                    /varset Attacking 0
                                    /return
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    } else /if (${SpamTankWait}) {
                        /call BroadCast ${IRCOn} ${EQBCOn} r "Holding Pulls. Tank to far from camp."
                        /varset SpamTankWait 0 
                    }
                }

Also notice the line right above the highlighted line.

I'm pretty sure distance was good when testing. But I'm sure that my PctAggro was never <50, normally sits around 75-80. Let me play around with that and double check range. Thanks ctaylor22!
