This is a small module I built to utilize the multibot server that is not used in FFXIV currently. The initial release only does 3 things, but it is expandable, customizable, and allows users to add their own files in as well.
The controller addon will allow users with the click of one button to accomplish things such as:
- Stop/Starting all bots.
- Reloading modules on all bots.
- Reconfiguring bot teams for duty without having to access your team mate's computer.
- Returning all bots to a certain location
- The list goes on.. any and all things that require inter-bot communication can be accomplished (generally speaking).
Installation
Module should be installed into the <Your Minion Directory>\LuaMods\Controller.

Server Setup - Local
To start, you will need the MultibotComServer application, which must be started, and settings.ini file configured however you'd like it to be (mostly you need to know/set the password in the [server] section).
Multibot Manager Setup
The multibot manager UI can most easily be found by going to the LuaMods in the top bar. You will need to enter the IP address, port, password and channel.
Bots will only receive commands from bots in their channel, so make sure you join the correct channel. The channel name should also be unique enough to avoid overlap with other teams if using a hosted/shared server.
