Man thanks for the fast response! I'm not a coder (Sorry!) and I'm trying to pick this stuff up as I go. I looked at what you put up there, do I just copy/paste that into my MQ2grind ini under the SK part?

Here is what I did, is this right? And is it that easy to add this to other characters in that same ini to get them to sit when low on mana and so forth?

No, you will be using MQ2React, and editing the MQ2React.yaml file. I suggest using Visual Studio Code.

@hytiek , I purchased this plug-in yesterday and love it so far, except for that I cannot figure out how to have my crew stop and Med when they are low mana. My pali just keeps pulling with literally so little mana he can’t get a stun off lol. Is there a way to change this so at like 20% or something he halts everyone to do a med break?

Scroll up in the thread, I already posted an MQ2React that will solve your issue.

/grind pause works fine but not if you're afk......

I shared that snippet because I am less intelligent after midnight than usual. What the dependency REALLY is about is "mimicme", not "cometome".

DoCommand - Couldn't parse '/groupinfo mimicme off'

Previously when I incorrectly thought the problem was ComeToMe , I posted that snippet from their plugin's INI of how that command is configured.

i am not sure where to find the fix for this issue but i just got the plugin but it also is giving me this error

all it does is just zibes my warrior in the instance and everyone just stays outside. any ideas what im doing wrong ? thanks
 
Sic said:
That means mq2groupinfo isnt loaded
Click to expand...
thank you sic, that fixed the parse issue.

Im still not able to get the other characters to zone in. Once my warrior has zoned this is all what the plugin does.

i dont see anywhare where the other characters are making an atte[pt to zone ionto the instance. Thanks again
 
I'm going to assume since you didn't have MQ2GroupInfo loaded, that other mandatory requirements are also not loaded:

Would you confirm that these other components which are mandatory are also present?
 
In hindsight, I should ask if you've configured the Tank and all of the Class configuration which relates to your group? Please keep in mind that you also must configure your tank class.

yes i have all those plugins loaded. my issue maybe that i may not have dannet set up . that plugin has always been loaded and the video of the use of it just shows what it can do and i have yet to find a video on actually configuring it unless its just like eqbc load and your set?
 
I'll reach out to you privately to help resolve this.

For transparency: the issue he was having was due to running a VPN.

i have 2 small problems with the plugin (not on it's funcionality)
1.) the driver/tank loses the group window (last year, when i first tried the plug-in it was the bandolier window). what do i need to change to correct that (i changed hotkeys, but that didn't help at all)
2.) on all of the driven toons there are all commands in the mq2 windows (i guess that's an easy one to change)
thx a lot for the help!

Hi there,

In regards to:

1) Grind is not doing anything with the Group window, I'm not sure what configuration you have in your settings but that is not something MQ2Grind does or would do.
2) You could run: /dnet commandecho off

I hope this helps!

Hytiek, will you please look into the pathing for Gnome memorial mountain, my toons keep getting stuck the very beginning maybe waypoint 5 or 6 looks like some big steel bars in the road.. but they path right to it and get stuck and die most of the time.

Please and thank you.

Having the same issue with tank losing group window

I run Grind every day on multiple groups; I need information on what you're doing, how your doing it, etc in order to find this issue.

Before you elaborate on information, please confirm that your group window is NOT set to disappear when you hit ESC.

If you in fact don't have this "enabled" then I want to know your set up, send it privately so that I may replicate to figure out wtf is going wrong there.
 
Feature request (or how-to question if this feature exists):
Can we edit/customize the route and waypoints? Where is this stored currently? Is it compiled into the .dll or is there a txt file somewhere we can edit?

Thanks!

The routes are hard coded in the plugin and are not editable. I am close to releasing a feature which will allow you to "take over" the Grind and do what you want to within the zone.

The feature is actually all done and working and tested ... I wanted to release an example script to go along with it as a "this is what you could do..." I'll work on wrapping that up soon (tm)

"esc" to close - thanks - that was my mistake....
 
Made this For those who run LEM instead of MQ2react. You will need to modify the action section to fit your specific setup. In my case I have a mix of CWTN and KissAssist characters so I needed a way to force the KA character to med to full now.

[CODE lang="Lua" title="GrindMeditate"]local mq = require('mq')

local function condition()
if mq.TLO.Grind.Active() then
if not mq.TLO.Grind.Paused() then
return mq.TLO.Group.LowMana(20)() > 0
elseif mq.TLO.Grind.Paused() then
return mq.TLO.Group.LowMana(95)() < 1
end
else return false end
end

local function action()
if not mq.TLO.Grind.Paused() then
mq.cmd('/grind pause')
mq.cmd('/dgge /$\{Me.Class.ShortName} mode 1')
mq.cmd('/dex NameOfKissAssistChar /medstart 96')
elseif mq.TLO.Grind.Paused() then
mq.cmd('/dgge /$\{Me.Class.ShortName} mode 1')
mq.cmd('/dex NameOfKissAssistChar /medstart 20')
mq.cmd('/grind resume')
end
end

return {condfunc=condition, actionfunc=action}[/CODE]
 
Hey, this looks like an awesome plugin to play with, but I'm still leveling up (50 atm). Does this support lower level zones or just the higher spots?

I believe the current lowest level one is fools and goblins at lvl 95
 
only issue i been having recently, vs a year ago, for some reason my sk randomly pulls out his range item, instead of pulling by his spell like he usually does, any idea how to fix that ?

I would suspect bad configuration for the tank. Doing check the distpullcmd

If you follow Sic's Hotkeys example and setup the aliases correctly - This:

Code: 
       mq.cmd('/dgge /$\{Me.Class.ShortName} mode 1')

becomes this:

Code: 
        mq.cmd('/cwtn mode 1')

and will prevent the failing to load error.

I need some help figuring out how to make my mage the tank using this.
I've type /grind waiver
I've grind/start from mage
What am i missing?

Think i got it - had to set the mage mode to sic tank - seems like that makes it go now

Still not working right - it targets a mob and tries to cast a spell but its either out of range of the spell or somethin else is going on that i can't determine
