Similar names. Targeting problem...

[eqclass]

Ive been trying to figure this out for a while. Cant seem to get it right. Im still quite new to MQ. But 6 boxing is working pretty good atm.

The only thing i'm stuggelin with is starting kiss without having to ALT TAB to every toon targeting MA first.
I got a few toons with very similar names. Lets say my MA is Luise, and the other group members are named Luis, Luiseane and Luisene.

So because of the names i cant use /bca //target Luise, casue they'll just target the closest group member who's name starts with "Luis".

Is there another way to command then to target MA ?

I know there are hotkeys for group members. F2 is group members 1, and that would be my MA. Is there a way i can tell them to use F2 ?

Thanks

/target id ${Spawn[pc =Luis].ID}

Would this work? Untested ...

/tar Luis shadowknight
(Assuming Luis is a SK)
?

I’ve done stuff like “/tar toonname pc” because sometimes /tar will pick up a familiar owned by the person instead of the person itself.

I didnt think of that.. Works Perfect !

the = is the key.
/target pc =luis

/target pc =luise

or my previously mentioned method which also works 100% of the time.

/target id ${Spawn[pc =Luis].ID} which of course requires a lil bit more in that it requires a TLO access.

Though I can see how using class specific can get you almost 100% reliability.

Right,

Class Works fine though. Will have to do for now.

How I load my group
Hotkey "Group Load"
/timer 15 ...…(because I want the hotkey to grey so I know I clicked it)
/bcg //target "tanks name or whichever toon you play actively"
/bcg //load "spell set name you want the toons to have memmed before loading kiss"
/pause 30 "to give time for toons to mem spells"
/bcg //mac kissassist



How I end the mac

Hotkey "Group End"
/timer 15
/bcga //end




bcg commands all in group except the toon issuing it
bcga commands all in group including the toon issuing it.

Some other hotkeys that might be useful

"Chase On"
/timer 15
/bcg //target "your toon name"
/bcg //chaseon
/bcg //returntocamp off

I haven't played for a long time, how chase works might be different now since during that time it was hit or miss.

"Hither"
/timer 15
/bcg //navid${Me.ID} 10uw

I use this to make my group come to my tank. Must have a mesh of the zone. Now I see there is a "Come to Me" hotkey in my group UI that I didn't put there, not sure if that is a thing DBG added or if it's MQ2 related.

"Stay"
/timer 15
/pause 15,/bcg //chaseoff
/pause 15,/cg //campehere
/pause 20,/bcg //returntocamp on

Before I end a mac, I always hit this to make sure all my toons are set to STAY when I start a mac.



"Group Uninvis"
/timer 15
/bcga //makemevisible
