I'm currently raising my Steamwheedle Cartel reputation and therefore using this addons with "The Gordok Ogre Suit" quest. Unfortunately, the resulting "Gordok Ogre Suit" you get by completing this quest is unique. Therefore the automation is not so automated Would it be possible to add an option to automatically delete it upon completion of the quest ? I ask for an option as some may want to keep it in order to enhance the Dire Maul tribut loots. That would be wonderful. Thanks

Nah... you must be confusing with some other addon of mine. I always say that in addons with no configuration options. Blitz_display said that on Curse when it was a separate download.

Yeah... did it with my main. In fact, it was that faction which made me create this addon. Unfortunately, when I finished it, I was already exalted... C'est la vie!

Or, alternatively, set the interface options (I didn't think to look for them, I think because at some point the addon description said "no configuration needed") to auto-hand-in by default.

Note that it hasn't picked up my preferred reward choices for the champion dailies, but on the whole, that's good, because I have one toon who wants writs and one who wants purses.

ETA: By the way, I always thought auto-hand-in mods were a dumb idea. Then I discovered tournament dailies. This has pretty much instantly leapt into the "cannot imagine playing wow without it" category of mods.

It'll be even more crucial when it comes time to do thorium brotherhood. :P

Does this imply that I'm actually supposed to be holding down shift when right-clicking on people? I'll try it.

with patch 3.3.3 Blitz reports this error upon login:

Code:

Some digging around indicates that Blizzard has removed the SetTexCoordModifiesRect() function with the patch. I don't know of a workaround to achieve the same thing that function did. Commenting out this line prevents the error message from being shown and so far Blitz still works. I'll report back if Blitz breaks or I learn anything new about this issue.

All the best!

There should be a ton of bugs with patch 3.3.3. I will release a new version soon as I can, but I haven't yet been able to get my hands over an interface diff to get started with.

EDIT: Fixed and new version released.

Hi there,

thanks for the update. I've tested it and the errors are pretty much gone. Except for one which has to do with Blitz remembering my reward choice.

Apparently Blitz should already remember the player's choice if a daily quest has more than one reward, right? I wasn't aware of this feature since it never worked. The only dailies I currently do are Argent Crusade dailies so maybe others do work flawlessly. Mine don't.

When I finish one of my Argent Crusade dailies I select the reward I like and I expect Blitz to remember that choice for the next day. However, it doesn't. In \WTF\Account\<account>\<server>\<character>\SavedVariables\Blitz.lua I can manually set the respective field's value to the number corresponding to the reward I want, like so:

Code:

Blitz_ActiveQuests = { ["Taking Battle To The Enemy"] = 2, }

When I next turn in that quest, Blitz will automatically select the reward I expect it to. However, it will also report this error:

Code:

Date: 2010-01-14 04:16:53 ID: 1 Error occured in: Global Count: 1 Message: ..\AddOns\Blitz\Blitz.lua line 136: attempt to index local 'icon' (a nil value) Debug: [C]: ? Blitz\Blitz.lua:136: ?() Blitz\Blitz.lua:28: Blitz\Blitz.lua:28 AddOns: Swatter, v5.7.4568 (KillerKoala) Blitz, v BlitzDisplay, v BlitzIcons, v BlizRuntimeLib_deDE v3.3.0.30300 <eu> (ck=78)

For me getting the error is the lesser of two evils. At least now Blitz remembers my reward choice. Is there a way you could look into this issue? Or in case I'm simply using Blitz incorrectly, give me a hint how to use it properly? ;-)

Thanks for this add-on and all the best!

Thank you, that was a really constructive comment. Although I have only answered it now, it was extremely helpful to write a bug-fix and release version 1.3.
If the bug still persists, let me know, otherwise, thank you again and good grinding!

Neither of these would be hard to add either as there are other addons out there that do this separately ie idQuestAutomation and the QuestReward addon, but none of them auto Complete quests that have item choices which is what i'm really after. When i'm leveling alts / etc. I dont often care about rewards as it's all money.

jaliborc, do you think you might consider this?

That is not the purpose of Blitz. As you said, there are already plenty of addons that do just that. Sorry, but I won't add that feature. At least, not in a near future.

Oh, one more thing. Is it possible to set Blitz so it automatically chooses one of multiple quest rewards? For example the Argent Crusade dailies reward players with either a Champion's Writ or a Champion's Purse. Blitz doesn't seem to remember that I always take the purse.

That would require a much more extensive quest database. I don't think there are enough different Argent Crusade dailies to justify that and the time I would need to invest in the feature. Simply select the reward once for each different quest and, in no time, you won't have to worry about the rewards anymore.

But I will keep the suggestion in mind. Thank you for the idea!

Hi there,

I've just discovered Blitz and begun testing it. Looks promising so far and I like the idea behind it. However, I got the same error dssurge did. For me it was with one of the Dalaran Cooking daily quests that I believe should've been automated. Might be wrong though, could've been one that Blitz hadn't seen:

Code:

Date: 2010-01-08 09:36:20 ID: 2 Error occured in: Global Count: 2 Message: ..\AddOns\Blitz\Blitz.lua line 134: attempt to concatenate local 'item' (a boolean value) Debug: [C]: ? Blitz\Blitz.lua:134: ?() Blitz\Blitz.lua:28: Blitz\Blitz.lua:28 AddOns: Swatter, v5.7.4568 (KillerKoala) Blitz, v BlitzDisplay, v BlitzIcons, v BlizRuntimeLib_deDE v3.3.0.30300 <eu> (ck=78)

On a side note, Blitz doesn't seem to play well with either Mobmap or QuestHelper. I'm not quite sure if I should report that on their respective pages. Anyway, today when I turned in the Argent Cursage daily quest "Among the Champions" I received this one:

Code:

Date: 2010-01-08 09:33:07 ID: -3 Error occured in: Global Count: 1 Message: ..\AddOns\QuestHelper\manager_completed.lua line 57: Invalid reward choice in GetQuestReward([choice]) Debug: (tail call): ? [C]: ? [C]: ? QuestHelper\manager_completed.lua:57: QuestHelper\manager_completed.lua:55 QuestHelper\collect_quest.lua:193: mobmap_original_GetQuestReward() MobMap\MobMap.lua:554: GetQuestReward() Blitz\Blitz.lua:129: ?() Blitz\Blitz.lua:28: Blitz\Blitz.lua:28 AddOns: Swatter, v5.7.4568 (KillerKoala) Blitz, v BlitzDisplay, v BlitzIcons, v MobMap, v353 QuestHelper, v1.3.7 BlizRuntimeLib_deDE v3.3.0.30300 <eu> (ck=112a) .. Plus ****load of other add-ons; list of which is probably not going to do any good.

I turned off everything except for Blitz and kept turning in more Argent Crusade dailies. The first one gave me this:

Code:

Date: 2010-01-08 09:35:25 ID: 1 Error occured in: Global Count: 3 Message: ..\AddOns\Blitz\Blitz.lua line 129: Invalid reward choice in GetQuestReward([choice]) Debug: [C]: ? [C]: GetQuestReward() Blitz\Blitz.lua:129: ?() Blitz\Blitz.lua:28: Blitz\Blitz.lua:28 AddOns: Swatter, v5.7.4568 (KillerKoala) Blitz, v BlitzDisplay, v BlitzIcons, v BlizRuntimeLib_deDE v3.3.0.30300 <eu> (ck=78)

I'd venture a guess that the other Argent Crusade dailies produced the same error but the error-reporting add-on I use (Swatter) is set to hide subsequent identical error messages so I didn't see more messages than the first one.

Maybe there's something you can do about these issues. If it's a QuestHelper and/or Mobmap issue, feel free to say so. I'll gladly report it on their pages, too ;-)

Got it while turning in a quest that was non-automated due to doing it for the first time.

Bug should be fixed with 1.3. It shouldn't have nothing to do with MobMap or QuestHelper. Thank you for your reports!
