Problem - My MQ2 Kissassist macro seems to be hanging since the last update

I am using a fairly basic set up of very vanilla but I seem to be having an issue with the macro hanging.

For the record.
My launcher was updated 4/21/21 and after that when I first started noticing this.
I have totally deleted my .INI file and recreated it. it did not solve the issue.
I have shut down and restarted everything.
The only plugin I am loading besides the out of the box very vanilla, and kissassist, is mq2advpath.

What exactly is happening and what do I mean by hanging?
I noticed this with my enchanter first but now my Wiz is doing it too. It does not yet seem to be effecting my melee toons. My SK is fighting and my Monk seems to also be working. Although as I am writing this it occurs to me that I haven't checked to make sure my SK is casting spells and my monk is using abilities. But I do know that they are physically attacking.

Before it happens the macro seems to be running fine and everthing is working. Then it stops working, no buffs, no attacks on mobs, toon does not auto med as outlined in the macro, does not auto target or auto face the mob, nothing. The toon will follow me around if I click the follow button in the group window, and will come to me if I click that button. But otherwise will take no action. The MQ2 window does not show that the macro ends or is paused. It just seems to come to an abrupt stop. I thought at first this might be somehow connected to the follow or come to me commands, and that by clicking them I was somehow turning kissassist off. However I have since then noticed this happening between mob fights where the party has not moved locations. The only way it seems to function again is by restarting the macro "/mac kissassist"

Any ideas would be welcome.

Here is the INI file of my enchanter.

I experience this behaviour after a death. I get rezzed back in, character self buffs, abides by chase setting BUT doesn’t engage in melee / dps routine. I have to restart macro for toon to return to normal

You have the spells set to "once", which means they will only ever be cast one time in a fight.

Then there is nothing else a character can do but sit and look pretty.


Will show you the way.
 
@Siris If you want to see what parts of the macro are being executed while your enchanter is hung, just startup debug.

/debug all on

That will start up debug messages.

/debug off

will turn the debug messages off.
 
I am having kind of the same problem with my chanter. I load KA and he does nothing . If I cast a spell manually, he then for some reason hits Origen AA but it is always interrupted. I tried the /debug all on command, and it just scrolls and scrolls the texts but still does nothing else. I have been using the same .ini on him for a long time, and it has always worked fine until the last couple of patches.
 
I had the same problem, except I discovered my toons .ini was reset to original configuration with none of the options filled out. I had to completely redo my .ini file for my caster. I backed it up this time, though. It started right after the update and took me some diagnosing to discover the .ini got reset because I hadn't touched anything in the folder.

My debug just scrolled and scrolled a bunch of enter/exit stuff. Check your .ini file to see if it is filled out.
 
/Debug is used to capture a log file so you can edit the log file and see what your toon is doing. If you are seeing stuff scrolling, then the macro is not locked in a loop. I would check and make sure your ini file is still ok. There have been instances where running the RG Launcher, the launcher creates a whole new instance of MQ and when that happens it like starting from scratch. Most of the time you can just locate your old instance and just copy your old ini files over to the new instances Macro directory.
