Thanks Mag, I figured it out. It's working great both groups and raids!

Instead of all the Bots stacking on top of each other, they are offset by a few preprogrammed dX and dY such as to make a formation ( circle, line, flying V, etc)

I kept running into a problem with the Iksar Bots stacking right on top of me and not allowing me to click anything other than them. (IE go to click on a Mob or corpse and all I get is my Bot, can't select ANYTHING else.)

Ok, well no, there are no bot formations actually.

Any way to get something of the sort added to the to-do list? Or atleast something to disperse them away from being stacked right on top of the Player?

Also, I dunno if its a bug or just not implimented correctly yet, but when two actual players are in a group and someone adds a Bot, the Bot doesnt show up in the Group list to anyone else but the person who added it and shortly there after the zone crashes. Anyone else have this issue?

You could use the "guard" comment to get your bots to stand back from you. This is how I got out of my monk standing on my face.

As for multiplayer, Mag has said a number of times this is not yet supported. I cannot find the post, but yes I saw the exact same thing.

As promised, eqitems editor now supports the ability to equip your bots via manual equipping and via saved profiles. If let's say you have a high level warrior, select the high level gear for a warrior and it's auto equipped. You can also create custom profiles. My other tool NPC editor will quickly create BOTS. I use these tools all the time and they save much time.

Two players in the same group with bots isn't supported for the moment. What you can do is to create 2 groups, on per player.

Ok, okay, so thats what was meant by 'multiplayer support' ! Gotcha. Nice work by the way, this makes EQEmu a completely new experience for me.... just when I was starting to get burned out!
