I have my warrior pulling in tempest temple, but she will ignoremobs that are within range. She seems to have a few spawn locations she will pull from, but ignores the rest. I try to work the goblin/ naga area in tempest temple

Below is the .ini file and at the bottom I have pasted in the info.ini for pull and ignore mobs

Are you starting them as a PullerTank? "/mac kissassist pullertank" ? The ini has the default role as Tank which would only attack mobs inside the camp radius or that have aggro on the group.

What messages do you get in the MQ2 window when it skips the mobs. Does it say like "no path exists" or just "looking for mobs"?

Pulling with MQ2nav? Mesh of the zone loaded? "/nav reload" to check. You'll get those messages when you start KA. If either isn't happening, then you'd default to line-of-sight pulling only.

The mobs it's skipping, I'm assuming their names are on the MobsToPull info.ini list? If you switch that to =ALL does it start pulling them? That could indicate a typo in the names.

Are they close to the 700 max pull range from camp? Sometimes KA will select a mob to pull that is inside the pullradius, but the actual run path via MQ2Nav is longer than 700 so KA will start running, hit the max run length and return to camp.

Try switching to pull with "melee" or one of your aggro combat abilities. Bow should work, I use it to pull on my warrior, but I do find in some camps with lots of obstacles the warrior wastes time kind of stair-stepping up to mobs that are pathing around a little bit. You can also play around with this PullRadiusToUse=90 (percent of item/aa/spell's range to get within) setting to try to get closer if you're seeing that stair-step issue.

I have tried remeshing the zone and reloading the mesh

I have tried using the all, but it tries to pull mobs on the other side of an impassable wall

The mobs are well within the distance as they can be walked up to and smashed, or shot from the /camphere loc and pulled to the camp

Well you could try setting pullarcwidth=180, then face your tank away from the wall you don't want to pull from. Adjust angle/arc needed for the camp. Then turn on =ALL and see if it grabs the mobs.

Could also turn on the visible mesh, "/nav ui" and checkbox "render navigation mesh" You could invis up and check the mesh around the un-pulled mobs. Maybe their spawn islands not fully mesh'd or something so KA can't find a path.

Another thing would be to move camps, maybe the other side of the mobs completely and see if the same camps are still un-pullable.

If you still can't pull them and have =ALL on, then it has to be something about the nav path not working for those mobs.

You can try playing around with the sliders in the Mesh Editor and see if you can get it to map the whole islands, or at least a path up on each. You can also use the manual editing to paint sections in. I'm not an expert on how to do it, but that's what you'd need to do.

Have you tried the pre-made meshes from one of the download packs?

Is there no solution for this issue? I typically have this same problem.

I usually stand on spawns, and when those mobs spawn, my group just stares at them and does nothing for 20 - 30 seconds. Any way to make them immediately attack?

Depends on your ini I guess?
if you have assist at 99 and the mob never gets to 99, they wont do anything
if you dont have MA/MT set in EQ AND the macro/plugin not much is gonna happen.

all in the INI settings I guess...
