Battle Pet Tabs

Version: 6.0.0.140730

by: Vladinator [More]

Addon revamp is ongoing. This means the current addon will be scrapped more or less and a new and improved one will emerge once the process is complete. Meanwhile I appoligize for issues and errors, but these will be gone with the new generation released, hopefully by early 2015.

Official repository can be found at GitHub.

NB: It's advised that you clean your SavedVariables file "BattlePetTabs.lua" from your WTF folder for WoD because the way pets are tracked has changed once more. This means that all old settings must be purged, or else you might end up with errors. Worst case you login and won't find any teams or snapshots.

You can create up to eight team loadouts and toggle between them by pressing the tabs on the Pet Journal - could it get any simpler? You can also store various team compositions into snapshots and then easily swap between entire team loadouts at once!

Quick start

Right-click a tab to delete.
Right-click a tab while holding down alt/shift/ctrl to rename.
Click "+" to create a new team. (Current team is copied as a starting point.)
Click a tab to load the assigned team.
Drag a tab to create a macro. You can place it on your bar for quick access. (Note that you can right-click the macro to quickly open the Pet Journal.)

6.0.0.140730
- The start of a new expansion means fresh change log.

Phanx No Life! Forum posts: 5060 File comments: 2183 Uploads: 44	Feature request: Allow reordering the teams somehow. Drag-and-drop would be ideal, or a right-click menu with move up/down commands, or even auto-sorting by team name or highest pet level. Actually a right-click menu would be handy anyway, as you could put the rename and delete options in there, and I could quit right-clicking by accident and having to waste time clicking cancel on the delete confirmation dialog. __________________ Author/maintainer of Grid, PhanxChat, ShieldsUp, and many more.

While you can't prevent it from summoning the pet in the first place, you can just dismiss the pet immediately.

Code:

local summoned = C_PetJournal.GetSummonedPetGUID()
if summoned then
	C_PetJournal.SummonPetByGUID(summoned)
end

Probably simplest to just dismiss once when the pet journal is closed, rather than try to detect exactly when the pet is summoned after selecting the team.

I can't seem to figure out how to update a snapshot or a team without deleting it and starting over. If there's a way to do an Update on a Snapshot, that would be awesome. 70 / 75 to level 25 and I can't help but keep changing teams. __________________

Vlad A Molten Giant Forum posts: 771 File comments: 394 Uploads: 40	Edit 1.1.7.1 hotfix has been uploaded and fixed a very serious issue. Released 1.1.7, added a new feature called "Team Manager". Check the change-log for 1.1.7 for details. Planned changes to the new feature are the ability to set the icon of each snapshot to what ever you like. The ability to drag and drop snapshots and organize the popup-panel. More detailed tooltips of what a snapshot actually contains. Until next update, I hope you enjoy the addon and I hope that I have managed to get rid of bugs and issues. __________________ Profile: Curse \| Wowhead Last edited by Vlad : 04-21-13 at 10:45 AM.

Tonyleila A Molten Giant Forum posts: 599 File comments: 1650 Uploads: 38	Nice addon! I noticed that Its switching pet talents much slower then PetBattle Teams - is there a CPU are Design reason for that? I'll come back as soon as you have added more tabs and maybe names for them I'll need them for the Daily Tamers, Low level pet hunting etc. __________________ Author of: LeilaUI and Aurora: Missing Textures __________________

They probably changed a bit on what functions are called when updating the information, so I gotta update my hooks to update at the right moments as well. Gonna take a look on my starter edition and see what happens.

Yeah, it's on my list, and I wish to add this feature seamlessly without adding new ugly buttons or elements on screen, I was thinking perhaps adding a button purely for loadout switching (when you have more than 8 teams), you can think of it as "tabs" or something, just brainstorming here, but it would allow you to add more "tabs" or "groups" to a menu and using that you can add/remove more tabs/groups and each tab/group would contain up to 8 teams.

Barleduq Ruler of All I Survey Forum posts: 72 File comments: 292 Uploads: 0	Very useful! I like this addon, and the ease with which I can keep track of which pets I'm using. I am, however, finding a need for more than 8 teams As I like to keep a team set for various levels, and various rarities (as I get more differnet ones) to easily swap when I'm wandering between zones quickly and spot a pet I don't have. (This is how I lost the nether faery dragon rare qq) Not a complaint, just a mention of a reason to have more than 8. Thank you!

fixing lost teams in 5.0 -> 5.1 transition

The problem is that the old pet id's were saved in decimal and they are now saved in hex by BattlePetTabs.

On OS X i just open BattlePetTabs.lua in a text editor like TextMate , select the three lines for the "team" entry for each team and filter trough the following unix command (works on linux too or windows with Cygwin):

awk -F, '{printf "\"0x0000000000%x\", %s\n",$1,$2}'

so the old entry like :

BattlePetTabsDB = {
{
["team"] = {
13435275, -- [1]
13212135, -- [2]
13320910, -- [3]

becomes:

BattlePetTabsDB = {
{
["team"] = {
"0x0000000000cd018b", -- [1]
"0x0000000000c999e7", -- [2]
"0x0000000000cb42ce", -- [3]

Doing this made my teams work just fine in 5.1.

If you have no choice but doing it manually you can use http://www.binaryhexconverter.com/decimal-to-hex-converter and just add 0x0000000000

This is with 1.1.0? I am working to fix this issue you see. Don't be surprised if I ask you how it the updates go as long this issue exists, hehe.
