[Addon] [BuddyChecker] Auto share & debug accepted quests

[thedtsniper]

Hello I wrote this little addon for me and my friend for this server. I thought maybe you guys could use it. In this addon it automatically shares shareable quests to other party members when accepting any quests and tells the party members what quest was shared. it also automatically checks to see if the quest you accepted is bugged with the chat command .qc [QUESTLINK]. Anyways have fun .

Here is the addon in a zip file for ya .
[CURRENT v1.L85a20n21k14] http://puu.sh/nlC5o/c1c8f04a36.zip

[Change log] (1.L85a20n21k14)
[change log #1] Changed line #20 chat channel to "CHANNEL" instead of "PARTY". This will allow the .qc debug chat command to check a quest even if the player isn't in a party or the player is dead or without a guild.

[Credit to the people for the people]
Thank you Hansrutger and Fastor for [change log #1]

Here is the code

main.lua [CURRENT 1.L85a20n21k14]

Code: Select all

local Buddy_Caller = CreateFrame("Frame")

Buddy_Caller:RegisterEvent("QUEST_ACCEPTED")



Buddy_Caller:SetScript("OnEvent",



	function(self, event, ...)

		local arg1 = ...

		local title, level, tag, header = GetQuestLogTitle(arg1);

		local buddylink=GetQuestLink(arg1);

		

		if(GetNumPartyMembers() > 0) then

		 SelectQuestLogEntry(arg1);

			if(GetQuestLogPushable()) then

				QuestLogPushQuest();

				SendChatMessage(string.format("[BuddyCheck]: Quest %s[%i] shared",buddylink,level),"PARTY");

			else

				SendChatMessage(string.format("[BuddyCheck]: Quest %s[%i] UNSHAREABLE",buddylink,level),"PARTY");

			end

		end	

		SendChatMessage(string.format(".qc %s",buddylink),"CHANNEL",nil,1)

	end

)

Good job! Keep up the good work!

[Fastor]

Tested and here are few comments:

Idea is great!
Addon does not do .qc function if not in party, l would like to have .qc working always.
Make sharing and .qc optional. Aka add code /buddychecker sharing on and /buddychecker qc on.
Also add info that its supposed to debug on truewow.org server.

[Hansrutger]

Thought of that before as well but was not sure if party fail gave a message or not. Either way, a chat that will ALWAYS work is "GUILD". SAY would also work but then you cannot use it when you are dead. I suggest you simply change on line 20 from "PARTY" to "GUILD".

Once again, good job.

Thank you Fastor for your wonderful thoughts! I have updated my addon so that you no longer need to be in a group to use the .qc chat command. I'll see what I can do for some / commands in a future update . I also updated the notes to include the turewow.org domain. Again thanks! Have a good one .

Thank you Hansrutger for your awesome thoughts! I have updated my addon so that it'll use the channel 1 instead of the party chat. This will allow players that are dead, without a guild and who are not in a group to have the command run for them upon accepting the quest.

Guild chat is always eligable. To test it try to go on PTR, die and try to do "/g .revive". You will be able to revive yourself even without being in a guild. Or look at the actual Bugged Quest Checker v2:

Code: Select all

function ChatMsg(msg, msgt, recipient)

  if not msgt then msgt="GUILD" end

  if msgt == "addon" then

    if recipient then

      SendAddonMessage("", msg, "WHISPER", recipient)

    else

      SendAddonMessage("", msg, "GUILD")

    end

end

And the .qc is done:

Code: Select all

id = getQuestId(questIndex);

ChatMsg(".qc "..id)

Here the code will send to function ChatMsg to type in ".qc questID" and then the function sets it to GUILD chat. Anyhow using channel 1 is also a valid solution. So good job either way!

[Fastor]

Guild chat is always eligable.

Errr not always, some of us does not wish to play in guild.

[Etro]

Handsome stuff Hansrutger is right. For commands, /g is always available, whether you're in a guild or not.

[Hansrutger]

For the five hundredth time... And thank you Etro for backing me up on this: G-chat is ALWAYS available... Why? Because it gives no error message if you are not in guild chat and you attempt to talk in guild chat. Jeez these people -.-'

[Fastor]

l dont talk in guild

[Sagiri]

l dont talk in guild

Cause your guild is dead.

Nice little addon, thanks for sharing!

^ This man is right. Fact. Period. Done.

Other solutions are valid, too, but using Guild channel seems to be the text-book, proper solution.
