GBOT [Bag Of Tricks]
Addon updated 09.12.2009.
- Hotfixed to work with the WoW 3.3 patch. Option to toggle the Minimap titlebar removed.

Some of the things it can do are as follows:
  • Automatically release your spirit while dying in Battlegrounds, Wintergrasp, while being ungrouped or in a Raid
  • Automatically use a Soul Stone if available, while being in a Battleground, Wintergrasp, when you're ungrouped or in a Raid
  • Automatically sell gray quality loot
  • Automatically repair when visiting a merchant who can repair
  • Automatically open all your bags when visiting a merchant, the bank, the Guild bank, the auction house, the mail box or while trading
  • Hides the chat buttons and arrows, and activates the use of the mouse wheel to scroll in the chat windows
  • Hide the clutter and various icons and buttons from the minimap. Also activates the use of the mouse wheel to zoom
  • Decline group invitations, guild invites, charter spam, duels, etc. Can be set to allow from guild, and even to automatically accept group invitations from guild and friends!
  • Moves the chat inputbox to the top of the chatframe
  • Glue the tooltip to the mouse cursor
  • Hide the UI Error Frame (You can't do that yet, Not enough energy etc etc)
  • Abbreviate channel names
  • Prevent the chat from fading out
  • Outlined Chat
  • Save different settings for each character of course
  • Allow you to edit all of the options above


I'm open to suggestions as to what other little nifty things I can put in. Every positive and friendly response is welcome.

Regards
Goldpaw

I've been thinking about that too. Immoral as it may be to automatically be a nice guy, I kind of love the idea. I'm currently using an addon called Accomplishment that can be set up to automatically congratulate people on their Achievements. My guild loves me now, rofl.

Anyway, I'll keep thinking about your idea. It shouldn't be too hard to implement. It would basically have to be a system that got activated before/after a trade, and that could detect whether or not we received any items or our amount of gold changed from before to after.

I did mention that I'm kind of lazy, btw?

I noticed that since the 3.2 patch your addon shows up as out of date. It seems that the interface number is wrong. You have it as 32000 when it is 30200. Its not much of an issue for me, I just go into the toc and correct it myself. I thought I would just point this out. Thanks for the wonderful addon tho.
"oops"


I'll make sure to fix this next update. Thanks for pointing it out, I totally missed that one.

...and I didn't add it during the summer. Mainly due to me being on a looooong vacation. But it's coming. I'm slow though.

It's fairly simple to add, but I really can't remember anything right now. I'll add this to my "list of things to add" in the next "big" update I'll be doing sometime... uh... before Christmas!

Otherwise everything else is fantastic.

Edit: Apparently the tooltip issue corrects itself after restarting the game.
Actually, whether the tooltip fades, or simply disappears instantly, is not something I've covered or manipulated in this addon. If your tooltip now *poofs* away right after you leave a target with your cursor, some other addon is probably doing that for you.

There is a chance I'll add that functionality to GBOT in the next version of course. But as somebody might have noticed, I'm not exactly working on this addon day and night...

It is a natural thing to add though, to give that extra bit of control. It's right down the alley of the "small" things I wish for GBOT to do, so I'll add it to the list of stuff I want in for the next "big" version. Up to that, I'll simply focus on making it work with the WoW patches, and remove whatever bugs may appear.

Bags

How did you get your bags to open up like that in your screenshot? I hit my B button and it only opens the first bag. And when i go to a merchant or guild bank it opens all my bag's individually. Just wondering what i am over looking is all.

These issues persist even after unchecking them, is there any way I can mess with the lua to completely remove all chat altering features?

That said, great job with this addon. I've given it to my friends and they've fallen in love with it.

A small suggestion though, perhaps turning off all chat and/or minimap options by default would be better since the user could configure what options to turn on himself.

/edit: Ack just tried to mess with Lua myself, not as easy as just deleting a few lines I'm guessing. In that case- is there any fix you can provide for my chat outline issue? And a way to turn off all options by default?
Having more options disabled by default is a GO; meaning I will change that. People that are already using the addon won't notice the difference though, since it saves settings through updates. When it comes to colliding with other chat addons; sorry, I can't fix that. WoW is a game, not a programming language, there just isn't any good way for all programmers to interact here, unless we all join the Ace-wagon.

Today's update is merely to avoid it being reported as an out of date addon. Other changes are coming later.
