Question - Plugin (or other)

[undeadraver]

Hello everyone i was wondering i am using KISS to manage my little army(2+1) and was wondering if any plugin or other things to make task easier (either for turn in or words to say to npc.)

A bit tired some to always have to change screen to complete those.

Thanks

Eqbc allows you to send commands to others connected to your eqbc server.

An example:
/bcga //taskquit

This would make everyone in your group quit their present task.

I am guessing undeadraver is talking about doing quests? hailing NPCs and turn in quest items?

i make macros using eqbc to target/hail/say
/bcga //tar NPCname
/bcg //assist CHARACTERname
/bcga //say xxxxxx

for turning in items, i do not know a way to auto find in bag and turn in.

Yeah am talking about all those quest.

Yeah mostly what i was doing as well.

Oh well thanks for the confirmation.

EQBC server, as plure pointed out, is what you're looking for to stop alt-tabbing and retyping things. EQBC comes with the Vanilla install, you may need to turn it on and setup MQ to connect. There is a also a guide if you want to make it a Windows service.

Some EQBC commands:

/bct - send a command to one character
/bcg - send a command to the group
/bcaa - send a command to all characters connected
/bca - send a command to all characters connected, except the character issuing the /bca command

This series will look a little robotic, but will have everybody target Gribble and say "ready":

/bcaa //target Gribble
/bcaa //say ready

Tell everybody to target TankName and start KissAssist. You may want to use bct or bca combos depending on who you want to start and what macros each toon will run:

/bcaa //target TankName
/bcaa //mac kissassist

Another useful plugin for groups is MQ2Nav. Makes pulling work much better, but can also be used to shuttle your group around without follow. You'll need to make a zone mesh for each one you want to run it in.

This series will make everybody run to Gribble:

/bcaa //target Gribble
/bcaa //nav target

Everybody move up to TankName's current location (it won't follow though, just move to the current loc of the tank):

/bcaa //target TankName
/bcaa //nav target

In Frontier Mountains and want to send your group to Gates of Korsha?

/bcaa //nav loc 3800 -3313 205

Leveled an alt wizzy and want him to run to the PoK spell vendors (use Find for names) and buy/mem their next available spells.

/bct LowbieWizard //target VendorName
/bct LowbieWizard //nav target
/pause 600
/bct LowbieWizard //mac scribe

This is great for task you repeat. but in my case i am taking 3 toon to the entire progression task in the heroes journey.

I have plenty of things to hand out and each new task is new words so no making macro for one time will take same amount of time as just doing next sessions and /say (last word needed)

MQ2 can do trade-ins too, though other than Bone Chips I don't know of an automated macro for general turn-ins.. This subroutine from the automated Disrupting the Ritual task macro will select "Diseased Blood" from inventory, put it on your mouse cursor and trade it to "supply chest" on its own.

Sub BloodSupply
/bct ${LooterName} //end
/bct ${LooterName} //target supply
/bct ${LooterName} //navigate target
/delay 15s
/bct ${LooterName} //face 
/bct ${LooterName} //shift /itemnotify "Diseased Blood" leftmouseup
/delay 2s
/bct ${LooterName} //click left target
/delay 1s
/bct ${LooterName} //click left target
/delay 2s
/bct ${LooterName} //notify GiveWnd GVW_Give_Button leftmouseup
/delay 1s
/bct ${LooterName} //target ${MainAssist} 
/bct ${LooterName} //navigate target
/delay 15s
/varset blood 0
/bct ${LooterName} //mac ${Macro5}
/delay 5s
/return

Maybe you could build a hotkey around the other commands above. For example this will tell a toon to find Bone Chips in their bag and load it on the mouse for a trade:

/bct ToonName //shift /itemnotify "Bone Chips" leftmouseup
