    Many times, if the raid moves on after killing a boss, the loot recepient will be out of range for the ML to see him actually receiving the item. In that case the addon will have no record of this guy getting any loot.

    My suggestion is to make a function available that other addons can use, to manually add an item to the raid. This function should make sure that it doesnt double record the item dropping if the recepient is actually in range. MasterLooter addons like XLootMaster could then make a call to that function whenever an item is assigned to make sure that it will get logged.

    There is a manually add item to a raid function. /hc loot add (or something like that with other information required also).

    What we actually do to counter this problem is let everyone who intends on bidding on an item that dropped stay at the boss (they can't focus anyway) and the rest continues clearing.

    If someone is not near the boss anymore but still bids and thus is out of range we warn them. We haven't had to take action thus far most people have gotten used to doing it this way.

    There is problem with /hc loot add [link] ....
    With all links, that i tried, i've got an error, and can add loot only during importing log in EQDKP-system.
    So, better way - solve this problem inside of addon =)

    The facility to add an item is in place already. Please use the following syntax:

    /hc loot add [ITEM LINK] <raidnumber> <playername>

    I use this all the time when people get out of range. It literally takes 10 seconds. You need to remember the raidnumber or it will not work. Also, for some reason, people with special characters in their name cannot have loot assigned to them this way. When that happens, I assign it to myself and then re-assign it to them from the loot tab in the raidtracker.

    Once many other things are fixed, I'll revisit the name issue.

    If it was works, i've not asked about this option =) On my command /hc loot add [Термовкусовой яичный таймер] 144 Амбец I've recieved message like this: HeadCount v.1.7.1: [[Термовкусовой яичный таймер] 144 Амбец] - недействительная опция для /headcount loot add (In english: ... - invalid option for /headcount loot add). Ofcourse, i've tryed any raid-numbers, loot & playernames - still having one problem =( What it can't be ?!
