Blazing Saddles

Version: 0.2b

by: Alestane [More]

Blazing Saddles adds /mount and /mountrandom commands to mount and dismount under the new Companion UI, and /cute and /cuterandom commands to do the same thing for vanity pets. It tries to smart-match the names as much as possible and should be conditional-aware, i.e.

/mount [flyable] Snowy Gryphon; [mod:alt] Felsteed; Dreadsteed

0.2: Added better name matching, and changed /cuterandom to select a random critter from all available choices if given an empty list.

I've tired a bunch of variations, but nothing seems to happen when I'm in a non flying locale. If someone has a working macro please post. I just want it to choose a random mount where ever I am. Land mount when necessary.

It's not presently able to discriminate between flying and non-flying mounts, but it recognizes conditionals, so you *should* be able to say

/mountrandom [flyable] Flyer 1, Flyer 2; Ground 1, Ground 2

This mod needs some love soon now that 3.0 is actually live, don't worry.

No, it requires 3.0 or later.

Works perfectly. /mountrandom [flyable] rocket, machine; dreadsteed, ram /dismount If you are in a flyable area, you get a random mount from the list before the ; If you are in a non-flyable area, it randomizes the mount from after the ;

This is the paladin mounting macro i use: Code: /cast [nocombat, nomounted]!Crusader Aura; [mounted]!Retribution Aura; /stopcasting /use [noflyable,nocombat,nomounted] Swift Razzashi Raptor; /use [flyable,nocombat,nomounted] Reins of the Onyx Netherwing Drake; /dismount [mounted] This works quite nice on live, but not on beta because the aura change now generates global cooldown, even with /stopcasting.

Change the code to: local _, name, _, icon, active = GetCompanionInfo("MOUNT", i); and local _, name, _, icon, active = GetCompanionInfo("CRITTER", i); The macro I posted below for paladins no longer works in this build -- the aura change starts the GCD, which apparently now affects the mounts. Hopefully this gets fixed.

Allara A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 1 File comments: 123 Uploads: 3	I ran into some sort of trouble getting the add-on to match my mount's name correctly. I made a couple changes to the /mount command to help: Added support for using mount number instead of name Added a check for an exact match of the name (including capitalization) If the mount you asked for couldn't be found, the add-on will now tell you that and list the mounts that it would have recognized Just in case this is useful to anyone, here's my new SlashCmdList.Mount function: Code: function SlashCmdList.Mount(...) local msg; for i=1,select('#', ...) do msg = select(i, ...); if type(msg) == 'string' then break; end end if not msg then return; end msg = SecureCmdOptionParse(msg); local mounts = ""; if msg and msg ~= "" then for i=1, GetNumCompanions("MOUNT") do local _, _, name, icon, active = GetCompanionInfo("MOUNT", i); mounts = mounts..i..": "..name.."\n"; if name:lower():match(msg:lower()) or i == msg or name == msg then if not active then CallCompanion("MOUNT", i); return; else Dismount(); return; end return; end end DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("Blazing Saddles: Mount \""..msg.."\" not found. Available choices are:\n"..mounts) end end Also, for the Paladins out there, it took me some time to get a good macro running in WotLK which also switches your auras. In case this is helpful to anyone, here's the macro which did eventually work: Code: /cast [nomounted] Crusader Aura /mount [flyable] Outland Gryphon Mount (White); Riding Horse (Charger) /cast [nomounted] Devotion Aura Hope it helps!

Kaydeethree A Deviate Faerie Dragon Forum posts: 16 File comments: 5 Uploads: 1	8714 break? GetCompanionInfo returns up to 5 elements now... <something>, <something>, <name>, <icon>, <active>. For those of you having problems with the line 14 error, change the code to this: local _,_, name, icon, active = GetCompanionInfo("MOUNT", i); Same goes for the vanity pet error on line 55: local _, _, name, icon, active = GetCompanionInfo("CRITTER", i); __________________ Skinning an addon author should aggro every addon authors in a 40 yard radius. It makes sense, you are actually skinning their best friend.

There seems to be some peculiarity in the way the flyable condition is being resolved, or something. I suspect this is at least as much part of the beta client as it is of the add-on.

Also, it would be nice if when you clicked on the button again, you dismounted.

If you are not using a random macro, it should. If you are using a random macro, you can add a /dismount line after the /mountrandom line.

Good call. A comma did the trick as far as the random part is concerned, but if you are not in a flying mount area, it does not default to ground mount at all. Nothing happens.

If I am not in Outlands, all I get is a "You can't use that here" error. Last edited by Darkspell : 07-30-08 at 08:47 AM.
