is there a way to auto follow in EC? I know you can in CC with ALT+Click.

    Well that stinks. I also don’t understand why we are not allowed to multibox, If I pay for 4 accounts then I should be able to run 4 accounts. So many people have left and still leave the game. I really wish they would do more to keep players and bring some back.

    You can run 4 accounts as long as you have to go to each account and do things it is called Multiclienting.  Using an illegal program to control all accounts give you an unfair advantage (Multiboxing).

    CC is vastly inferior to EC in all but this.  however this is a very over powered advantage 
    Acknowledgment and accountability go a long way...

    I mean I only play EC so I don’t think there are 3rd party programs for it. I have 4 monitors I play in at a time. But with the new changes to spawns and some bosses I think a lot of people are really upset.

    Multibox, or multi client?

    I have 3 accts and 3 screens running an EC Pinco client each, and I switch from one to the others by scrolling across to each screen and give a positive order to each client. Although not "supported" by UO it is not illegal. YOU can do this

    what you cannot do is have 4 accts working form a single order, so I acct main and the 3 other accts mimicking the first, so 4 archers for example doing the same thing. The this ridiculous and obviously illegal or 4 script looters etc

    Auto follow is basically multi boxing IMO my bard can follow my archer buffing away

    so you do what I do but with 1 more acct.  the problem is when you do underwater or dynamic spawn etc and it targets the 3-4 char. and you get all mixed up   its mad, fun but you are not breaking any rules doing that.  I struggle sometimes with 3 accts with Navery/Cora etc how you manage 4 I don't know, I take my hat off to you for trying :)

    Just remove auto-follow code from CC.

    Fun fact: If you removed auto-follow feature, people using army scripts at events wouldn't have an actual explanation for guiding 10 chrs around behind them, other than they were using an outside program to auto follow.

    Just remove the EC. If you removed the EC, you would only have to develop for 1 client instead of two, thus cutting production and development time in half.

    while the EC isn't what so many of us wanted when we asked for an upgraded client and were offered a brand new client. it doesn't change the fact that a lot of work has gone into and still goes into it's development, maintenance and new content being added to it. And removing it would only leave us with the very problematic client (classic client) or going a third party route. And while our development team isn't yet ready to source better client development from talented people developing their own updated client, it wouldn't be a good decision to just off the EC.

    I wondered if Pinco can do this EC auto follow. Even if it has I am unlikely to use it because i feel it’s over modified.

    I wish the mods can be turned on and off, i.e. is ala carte - check box for features that we like, or uncheck those we dislike. Last checked with him long time ago and it’s a straight no.

    What if it becomes a CC vs EC argument, but not a typical one?
