Bass: String Skipping Options

[jimmypw]

I seem to be having problems getting out of the habit of using the same finger more than once when practicing. Im fine when im consciously thinking about it but as soon as i stop thinking or play something ive known before i notice myself doing it straight away. Or, is what i'm doing correct?

Could someone help clarify this technique for me please.

As I understand it:
Single string - Alternate fingers no questions asked
String to adjacent string - acceptable (encouraged?) to use a single finger technique known as raking
Is this technique more important than finding a comfortable playing style?
