I wanted a simple mod to randomly cast a mount from a list I defined. Using Land in nonflyable areas and flying in flyable areas.
Have added localization ability, tenatively/hopefully. If you would like to localize this, please look at localization.enUS.lua and send me a comment stating you would like to.
Have added the ability for druids/shamans to use their travel/GW/flight forms. It's bound to a 3rd key binding. Can not be part of the randomness due to the fact it is a spell and must have a secure button to cast. Well it could be just not simplified. For druids, will attempt to cast swift flight than flight form in flyable area's, if you have neither it than will attempt to cast travel form. If your not in a flyable area it will attempt to cast travel form. Ok to be able to cast, the binding is transfered from the trigger you set in Key Bindings menu, to the secure button for casting. So each time you log in you will have to hit this key binding twice, but for the rest of the session will act like a regular keybinding. I have found no way around this at this time. This only affects travel forms keybinding.
Comments Suggestions always are welcomed.
use /rdm:
RountRandomMount version
use: /rdm --prints this help
/rdm add [mount name] (can also shift click from your mount list) -- adds another mount to the random list
/rdm remove [mount name] (can also shift click from your mount list) --removes a mount from the list
/rdm list -- lists the mounts to select from
/rdm gui -- brings up a GUI of your mounts
/rdm reseed -- if you use more than one computer and you learn a new mount, your list will not work on the other computer, use this to reseed correct mount ID's
/rdm catform -- if you are a druid will use catform in instances/inside.
/rdm random -- mounts a random mount from your list (using flying in flyable areas and land in nonflyable areas)
There is a keybinding option in the Blizzard KeyBindings Menu. Add a shortcut here to call /rdm random
If you have any bugs, questions, comments, suggestions, please leave me a comment.
I did run into a mount that doesn't have the same name in the tooltip as in the WoW API call. Bronze Drake from CoS timed, doesn't have the word mount in the tooltip, but in the API call comes back Bronze Drake Mount. If you get an error saying mount doesn't exist, please let me know. Also if you ahve the HHM, will you let me know if it works with this?

Changed how mounts are determined for flying/land as the coming changes in Cata. It now keeps a global list of all mounts and what they can do (land/flying/both/swimming).

IsFlyableArea Does not work during Combat in WG, added code to correct this.

IsFlyableArea() was fixed in 3.2 and properly determines if you can mount. Simiplfied code this way.

Minor fixes to color code.
v2.6a
Fixed issue with next button on GUI not re-enabling when prev button was pushed, until page 1 was reached.
v 2.6
Began chinese translations.
v 2.5
Updated so no error message (found the API call to find out if WG is in combat and was able to see that land only during combat, flying every other time, even if other faction owns WG, sorry took me a bit to have time to test). Updated Druid travel forms for WG hopefully, need someone to test.
v 2.4
Updated for flying mounts in WG, what it does is try to mount a Flying mount then a land (in case of battle). So you will get a message another action is in progress, or you can't use that here and a land mount is summoned. Unfortunately, this is due to the fact that CallCompanion doesn't return anything (ie success or fail). Also, i did this cause I wasn't sure if you can mount you flying during WG battles. Been busy, haven't been able to test.
v 2.3
Updated TOC for 3.2
v 2.1a
Fixed code for the druid forms again.
v 2.1
Hopefully fixed the profession only mounts and headless horseman mount.
v 2.0d
Hopefully re-fixed the druid forms.
v 2.0c
Was pointed out to me, that I shouldn't use global variables, but use a table. This has been fixed. However, your mount list will now be blank.
v 2.0b
Hopefully fixed the druid forms.
v 2.0a
Hopefully fixed the cat form inside toggle command. Also added a check if the player is a druid, so it will just tell you to ignore that command if you are a druid.
Hopefully fixed the not using flight form in flyable areas.
v 2.0
Added localization, enUS only right now. If you want to contribute another language, please look at the localization.enUS.lua file and there are all the variables used within MRM. Send me a comment that you would like to do this.
Added shaman/druid ability to use GW/travel/flight forms. It uses a 3rd binding for this, since they are considered spells and not mounts, a secure button must be used. So they can't be part of your random list. The 3rd key binding will show up for non druid/shamans but if you set a keybinding to it will display a message you aren't of the right class.
v 1.2
Fixed the problem with not mounting up a land mount if you had no flying selected.
Added a binding to mount a random land mount only (for those times you want to show off your land mounts in flyable areas)
Added a command to reseed mount ID's. If you play on 2 computers and you learn a new mount on 1, your list on the other won't work correctly until the ID's are corrected. This will do that.
v 1.1a
Was not correctly updating your list when a new mount was added. Fixed.
Will have to clear your list or add a new mount.
v 1.0
1.0 release
GUI added
fixed an error where no printing of what mount was added when your flying or land list is empty.
Added keybing
v beta .5a
Changed it so that a flying mount would be used in Krasus' Landing in Dalaran.
Originally posted by Aalwein Actually, I wasn't going crazy. I am losing the keybinding - but I think the issue might be with Dominos. Since I play so many different characters, some of them have the keybinding set to Dominos bars. When I play one of those characters, even though they have "character specific keybinds" for both the Blizz keybinds and Dominos, I lose the keybinding when I go back to my druid.
I'm still trying to find exactly what is causing it, but the MRM keybind is definitely not staying put.
I noticed that after I've set the keybinding (set to /), after I use it, cancel the stance, then use it again, the keybinding goes back to "Not Bound" yet it still works - that is until I log out and back in again.
The keybinding will be "unbound" in a sense until next log in. This is why you need to hit it twice first time you log in. The way I understand it, and it's coded, is blizz made addon's have secure buttons to cast spells. Normally, this would be a showable button you can bind/click on.
However, since mine is hidden, I have to create a keybinding first, and that keybinding binds it's keybind to the secure button. Basically when you first log in, the first time you hit your keybinding, it's actually keybinding that keybinding to the secure button from the keybinding Variable.
Not sure if that all makes sense, but yes it will unbind the first time you use it from the key binding to the secure button. And sense you can't see the secure button, this is intended.
Also not just with Dominos, make sure in Blizzard Keybindings character specific is checked. I believe both need to be checked.
Originally posted by dardack OK good, cause I tested it on my shaman/druid and couldn't reproduce, so that woulda been fun to find.

Originally posted by Aalwein Yeah I must have been missing the second click - I knew you had to press it twice each login but it seemed like i was spamming the button and it still wasn't working. I guess I was just missing the clicks (I have it bound to a mouse wheel so that makes sense). False alarm!

Originally posted by dardack When you say resetting, it get's unset from each time you log into to a diff key?
Cause like i've said, you have to click the keybinding twice on login, once to bbind, once to use, after that you just use once entire time logged in.

Originally posted by Aalwein My keybinding for "Spell Mounts/Travel Forms" keeps resetting. I have character specific key bindings turned on. Also, when I rebind the key, I get a message stating:
CLICK MRMSecureButton:LeftButton Function is Now Unbound
This occurs even though the button says "Not Bound."

Yea i needed that error message. I did not realize they were changing the draeni pally mount before cata. 4.0.3f should fix it, and you should see all your mounts properly now.
Originally posted by Ravenhawk9999 I have 36 land and 4 air mounts, but only 7 land and 2 air are listed on the rdm gui. However, when I use /rdm list, all of them are listed.
In 4.0.3d? I need to know what version this happened with, because since version 4.0.1i, I thought this was all fixed.
Originally posted by help137 The addon seems to be considering the old world a flyable zone now that patch 4.03 is here, yet since we can't fly in the old world yet, I just keep getting "you cant' use that here" errors. Perhaps a check to see if the toon has an old world flying licence? That woudl fix it now and for post-cata when a toon doesn't have the licence yet.
