If VA is running, it's going to do exactly what your command's actions are telling it to do. If VA is not running, it doesn't continue to run in memory, running amok and doing stuff. It never has in the 11 or so years it's been around. You may want to export your profile, zip it up and share it here so that somebody experienced can look at it to see if there's something you've possibly added inadvertently. Make sure to carefully list the steps you are taking, as well as what you are expecting as a result versus what you are actually experiencing. Unless you've wildly uncovered something that Pfeil has not, it's going to be something you are doing and will be quickly recognizable once you share your profile and steps.
OK, I have included the profile as an attachment.
Not sure what steps you want me to list but here is what I am doing.
After installing VA, I started with a new profile. I did not import and old one or one from another user. I then wrote the command DDoor:
Voice Attack command editor
1. click Edit Profile, then New Command
2. check the box "When I say:" and enter DDoor
3. click Key Press
4. in the "Add Key press" window I hold the SHIFT + M and hit OK
5. it says Press Left Shift+M keys and hold for 0.1 seconds and release in the command box)
6. Enter Dimension Door in Description field
7. I enter Spell in the Category field
8. the box is checked Allow other commands to be executed while this one is running
9. I also check the box Send this command to and then the radio button for the pulldown and select Dungeons and Dragons Online.
10. Hit OK, then hit DONE.
Starting VA/DDO and using commands
1. 2click Voice Attack.
2. say "start ddo" abd the ddo client starts up and brings me to the login screen
3. say "login" (I have removed the login command from this profile as it includes my password)
4. I am presented with the character select screen. I manually choose the character I want to play and click play.
5. after choose a quest to run, I enter the quest (I solo alot). While fighting, the spell DDoor (which I have a command for) will randomly be cast even though I am NOT saying DDoor or hitting the SHIFT+M key combo and do not want that spell because I am fighting. I do not know what that random thing is that is causing the command to run.
In Game options
1. in options/keymaps I scroll to the hotbar (I use 12-13 on this toon) Hotbar #7 slot 0 (#10) I set the keymap combo LEFT SHIFT+M. I then place that spells icon in that hotbar and slot.
2. so when I say DDoor, I expect VA to click the keymap LEFT SHIFT+M which has the spell DDeor loaded to teleport me to the start of the quest.
3. the 1st time I use DDoor and subsequent times I use that spell, it works. The problem is that it is working even when I am not saying the command or hitting the key combo.
4. Thinking I would just move the spell to another hotbar (but NOT change the command, forcing it to fail) a DDoor still randomly pops up...again, I didn't say the command or hit the keymap combo.
5. so, I then closed Voice Attack. yes, I DID uncheck the box for VA to minimize AND I visually verified in task manager that VA was not running so it is not simply minimized.
6. Logoff that character and log back on....VA still not running.
7. go into a quest and in the middle of fighting, a DDoor pops up. I did not hit the key combo s there is no way that spell can run unless I click it.
I have even closed the ddo client, shutdown Voice Attack and logged off for the evening. Came back the next day, DID NOT start VA but logged into DDO and while in a quest, had a DDoor randomly continue to appear.....Yes, even though VA was not running. As a test, I did the same thing another night. Except this time, I rebooted my computer (I leave my pc on 24/7) and did not start VA, logged into DDO and I was not experiencing the latent command like previously. Appearing like the reboot cleared the memory.
In DDO, hotbars 1-10 are defaulted keymaps to CTRL+1 thru CTRL+0. Hotbar 1 (CTRL+1) is basically the default hotbar. I have the spell ddoor on hotbar 7 slot 10. I think the issue might be that VA is defaulting to the hotbar that was the last command used...in this case HB7 slot 10 DDoor and since that is the last command used, it is executing that command.
