Bind ~ to target nearest NPC. Bind tab to cycle nearest NPC. Ignore your assist button, just pay attention to whats going on around you and hit the mob whose life is going down. You'll play better.

Make an assist button for when you can't find the right target immediately.

/assist tank name.

Aha! Beautiful! All this time I've been using Tab to target nearest, Capslock to Cycle. People always wonder why I'm yelling at them. Fix'd!

Calling bs on that. Caps lock doesn't work in game.

/tt = tell current target


/rt target person sending you a tell.

I didnt say elves wonder why I'm yelling all the time, I said people.

Meaning I alt tab out and message somebody via steam of facebook or whatever.

itt: dude being a contrarian for the sake of being a contrarian. You must be fun at parties. (read: add something or shut up.)

anyone know if /copylayout works on p99? i havent tried it but if it does it can be used to copy a UI layout from one char to another.

wanna know if an anonymous person is guilded? target them and type /guildstatus to find out what guild they are part of and if they are a member/officer/ or leader of that guild.

iF IT DOES THIS IS SOMETHING i'D BE VERY INTERESTED IN

^ THE RESULT OF CAPS LOCK TO CYCLE NPC's. The struggle is real, regardless, of whether or not that douchey <BDA> fella thinks I'm making shit up.

Would the format for this be /copylayout <character>? and do you think if it works at all, it would work between separate accounts? All my toons are on separate accounts

The only way I know to do this is by actually copying the physical files from the directory. This is actually one of the things I hate most about eq. Every time I do a fresh install or start a new toon (Primarily fresh installs, which are required way more often than they should be imho) I have to take at least five minutes to change a bunch of settings that really don't actually matter, like the size and position of buff and chat windows, as well as filter options and such (could be OCD). A lot of the default colors are not even legible to me (most notably the dark purple and deep red)

And I get that it wont help on a fresh install because there's no non-default layout for it to copy, but still, would be infinitely useful for me.
