Movement Keys and Broadcasting

Hey, just started playing with multiboxing today using the trial and I need some help. I'm trying to figure out how to make broadcasting ignore my WSAD keys, so I can maneuver naturally while my characters are on follow. The same way they follow with broadcasting turned off, but I want it on so they click what I click. I know it's a total noob question but any help would be much appreciated.
Re: Movement Keys and Broadcasting
You shouldn't be using broadcast, but you can turn the WASD keys off in your slave keymaps.
The correct way is to have keymaps setup (like the DPS keys the quick-wizard creates) Then when you press '2' it gets sent to all slaves, but 'W' does not.

You could Blacklist those keys.
However in general, you want to use Keymaps on and Repeater off as your default play.
That gets you a lot more power from the software.
Rather than broadcast everything to the slaves...
Choose the hotkeys that you want to result in actions.
Which can be for the master/active toon only or for the slaves only, or for everyone, or another combination you decide upon.
A mapped key has a hotkey to activate it.
And can do a lot of things... one of which is a keystroke action.
At a simple level, the hotkey can be "a" and it can send "a" to all of your windows.
That way, rather than broadcasting everything from the master/active window to the slave windows (which is how Keyclone works)...
You create hotkeys for the mapped keys that you actually want to broadcast.
That is essentially the same effect for those keys.
However, with Keymaps on and Repeater off... you can do things like independent slave movement...
You could create a set of mapped keys (I use WASDQE for the master only)... ie., they're not mapped keys and repeater is off.
And I also use the arrow keys (up, down, left, right) as mapped keys that output to "Window: All without current"... ie., all the other windows that I'm not in currently.
You'll generally want to use the Follow feature of your game.
Rather than broadcast keys for the slaves to follow with.
Guessing you got that, since you're asking how to turn it off.

Re: Movement Keys and Broadcasting
Had to change this.. I figured it out.. No Key mapping or broadcasting at all works.
