FishermansFriend

Version: r109-release

by: Ammo [More]

FishermansFriend is a fishing helper addon inspired by FishingAce and improved upon.

FishermansFriend does the following when you equip a fishing rod:
- Enhance Sounds so you can hear the fishing bobber better, and ofcourse restore your original settings when you remove the rod.
- Add doublerightclick autocasting.
- When attempting to doublerightclick autocast FishermansFriend can also use the Weather-Beaten Fishing Hat or automatically apply your best lure.
- Automatically turn on Auto-Looting items when you have a fishing rod equipped.

FishermansFriend uses the itemids for lures etc, and should work on every language client even though the configuration might not be translated in your language yet.

You can open the options panel by /fmf or /fishermansfriend or via Esc -> Interface Options -> AddOns.

Enjoy.

I've been looking forward to that cuz now I can let FF apply the hate lure automatically, and never run out of consumable lures again! There's only one problem: FF doesn't appear to be successfully applying the hat lure, and with the hat on, double-right clicking to cast is broken! Can you fix it?

Is it throwing errors?

My problem is, I don't have the hat, so it's hard to test for me.

No, it wasn't generating any errors.

Ah, with more testing it, I found that it worked just fine, even with my fishing hat equipped ... if I put it on and went in and stared at your code long enough. In fact, it takes about 30s of staring at your code for it to start working. Which happens to be the exact cooldown of the Weather-beaten Fishing Hat from first putting it on to when you can use it.

Can you just put in a check for the GetBestLure() result being off of cooldown as well as there being no weapon enchant on the fishing pole? That ought to fix it, I think. Thanks, Ammo!

joshwill80 A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 5 File comments: 144 Uploads: 0	Feature Request Could we get a way to temporarily bypass applying lures? I was thinking of something like holding in shift while double rightclicking could ignore applying a lure. There are a few occasions where you don't want to use a lure, and a modifier key seems like a good way of handling it.
