Creature Comforts

Version: 4.3.0.120

by: Phanx [More]

This addon is no longer maintained or supported.

If you are interested in permanently adopting Creature Comforts,
and have published at least one WoW addon,
please send me a PM!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Combines your Call, Dismiss, Feed, Mend, and Revive Pet abilities into one button.

Out of combat, Creature Comforts will revive your pet if it’s dead, call your pet if it’s unsummoned, dismiss your pet if you’re holding the Ctrl key (or if you middle-click), feed your pet if its health is below 50% and Feed Pet is available, or mend your pet if its health is low (or it has a debuff you can dispel with the Improved Mend Pet talent).

In combat, Creature Comforts will call your pet if it’s unsummoned, revive your pet if it’s dead, dismiss your pet if you’re holding the Ctrl key, or mend your pet otherwise. Due to Blizzard’s restrictions on editing macros while in combat, if your pet is dead but was despawned when you entered combat, you’ll need to hold the Shift key (or right-click) to tell the macro to revive it.

Usage

Options are available in the Interface Options window. You can type “/cc” or “/creaturecomforts” to open the window directly to the Creature Comforts panel.

The first time you run Creature Comforts, you’ll need to create the macro it will manage. You can do this from the configuration panel (press the “Create Macro” button) or from the Blizzard macro window (create a character-specific macro named “AutoPet”).

Language Support

Creature Comforts is compatible with English, Deutsch (deDE), Español (esES/esMX), Français (frFR), Русский (ruRU), 한국어 (koKR), 简体中文 (zhCN), and 正體中文 (zhTW) game clients.

Creature Comforts is translated into English, Español, and 简体中文.

Credits

Creature Comforts is based heavily on Tekkub’s Buffet, and indeed began as a simple modification of Buffet to feed my pet instead of myself. I was also inspired by Gazmik’s Fizzwidget Feed-O-Matic, Nirek’s FeedMachine (which in turn is based on Beerke’s King of the Jungle), and Tekkub’s FuzzyLogic. After trying all of these addons, I set out to combine their essential features into a single, transparent, easy-to-use, no-assembly-required package.

Indeed I do. Good catch! I'll release the fix soon.

Sorry, its the german client. Furthermore i don't get an icon for the libDataBroker. Propably a localisation problem too. Don't know if the icon names are different though.

Please open the Locales\Locale-deDE.lua file in Notepad and verify that the food category names (Bread, Cheese, Fish, Fruit, Fungus, Meat) match those shown in-game on the pet frame exactly.

LibDataBroker is looked for only once when the addon loads; if it's found, you get a launcher icon, otherwise you don't. But, really the only thing it does is "save" you from typing "/cc" and pressing enter, so I don't see any reason to make it more complicated.

Some minor bugs in CC 3.0.2.53 (curse) found. 2 Tooltips arent shown, 1 are wrong shown and translation doesnt work for 1 string. Options.lua lines 83, 84, 85, 91, 92 and 93 are all using feedhappy.xyz every localization file uses the string "Feed when happy too" but in Options.lua the string is called "Feed when happy". Oh, I did german translation too. Fixed version: see bug report for link

The Underspore Frond that is obtainable from the Everlasting Underspore Frond (From the Soregar Quests) used to be tagged as usable by my Gorilla pet and now it's not recognised as usable food. I have the option to allow combo foods to be fed turned on and the fronds still work to feed the pet if I do it manually. It's not a huge deal but I thought you may want to look into it.

Looking at my code, I can't see any reason it shouldn't be including Underspore Pods in the list of things you can feed to your pet. What exactly is happening when you use the macro? Is it giving you the glowing hand cursor, or is it choosing another food item? If the latter, which food item is it choosing? When you're trying to feed your pet, what is his (or her) happiness level? Do you have the "Feed when happy" option enabled? If your answers to the above questions don't give me any clues, I'll need you to enable debugging and get more information, so don't forget to check back!

I am finding that no matter what I have checked in the CC options, the addon is having troubles with certain foods just lately. For example, it completely ignores fountain goldfish - though I can feed them to my pet manually.

I had a friend on my server say theirs was having trouble with some kind of biscuit or bread that is summoned via an item (a horn of some kind).

As for specific errors:

If I have my cat out (who will eat fish, but not fungus), CC tells me "You have no food for Cat" -- if I click on the "feed pet" icon that shows, it will light up my little cursor hand and wait for me to pick something out of my inventory -- seeming to indicate that it is not recognizing that I have the goldfish in my inventory.

My cat gets hungry so rarely that I can't say I care - but I always report errors to people so they can adjust code if necessary. I have *no* idea why these fish are not being counted as food. It doesn't seem to like sewer carp either.

Phanx Cat. Forum posts: 5617 File comments: 2321 Uploads: 54	There are probably quite a few new food items added in Wrath that Creature Comforts doesn't recognize yet. It recognizes food items by consulting a static list of item IDs that I've compiled, but since I'm pretty busy right now leveling four characters up to 80 and have about a dozen addons to get up to speed, I don't really have time to spend hours manually comparing my list to figure out what's missing. Obviously, I'll add any I personally encounter, but since my hunter will likely have to wait to level after my raiding main shaman and a death knight, it could be a while, so if you find any others, please post them so I can add them! Sewer Carp is already listed, though. What happens when it's the only food item in your bags and you try to feed your pet? If you find some spare time, find line 21 in Core.lua: if level > 0 then return end and change the 0 to a 5. Then, without taking any other actions, type: /run CreatureComforts: Diet() (without the space before "Diet"; the "Disable smilies" option doesn't seem to be working here) You should see it build the list of foods your pet can eat. On that list you should see "Basic Fish". After it's finished, type: /run CreatureComforts:Scan() You should see it scan your bags; this will be extremely spammy, but you should see it "Scanning ____ ..." on each item in your bag. For each item that is recognized as food, you should see "Considering ____..." followed by some information about the item. If the item is better than the previous edible food item considered, or if it's the first edible food item found, you should see "Accepting _____.", otherwise it will move on to Scanning on the next item. Specifically, I'll need to know what it says when it scans the Sewer Carp. (Or the Underspore Pod, if it's still having problems with that.)

Any thoughts of using LibPeriodicTable-3.1/LibPeriodicTable-Consumable-3.1 for the food lists as FeedIt (another macro feeder, but doesn't feed when pet is happy), FeedMachine, Fizzwidget Feed-O-Matic & so on use? So that you don't have to compile the ever-changing food lists yourself.

Phanx Cat. Forum posts: 5617 File comments: 2321 Uploads: 54	I've thought of it, yes, but every time I've recompiled my own lists, I've used LPT's lists as a base, and every time I've found many items that are missing, and even some that are incorrect. LPT doesn't auto-mine its lists of food items either, as per comments in its code, because Wowhead doesn't offer any filtering criteria to identify food items as anything other than "Consumable" or "Meat" (which actually means "cooking reagents" and includes things that aren't meat per-se). I'm also not thrilled about the idea of having half of my addon's download size be one library that my addon will only ever use less than 25% of. If the addon is already strongly library-based, as FeedIt and Feed-O-Matic are, then adding 50kb in code for a food list and some unknown amount of CPU overhead to access it through layers of metatable and function calls is, I suppose, slightly less noticable of a waste, but it's not something I'm interested in doing in my own addon when a simple list table will do the job just as well. My philosophy on libraries is that if my addon will use less than 90% of the library, it's a waste to include it. There are addons that do use 90% or more of LPT, but mine isn't one of them. Currently my own food list is less than 3kb and is cheap to access with simple table calls. And given that feeding is all but irrelevant in WoW 3.0, I don't really think it's a big deal if a few items are missing for a few weeks after the launch of an expansion. Also, the version I posted a few days ago includes a full food database update.

Another kool idea would be to add it to the SCT. Just some Ideas! Thanks!
