Quick Auctions 3  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v3.1
by: Shadowed [More]

Quick Auctions is an auction tool to help speed up auctioning large quantities of items, especially canceling. While primarily Quick Auctions is built for large quantities of items, it can work fine for a few auctions as well. A bit of tweaking is required to get optimal settings, but it is very flexible and smart enough that you can use it for more than just mindlessly undercutting auctions by 1 copper every time. Summary window and craft queues are included so you do not have to memorize every item and quantity you need. Shows total materials required to craft as well as allowing you to click from the craft queue to craft so no searching through everything.

Slash command: /qa (/quickauctions)

Donations
A lot of time went into Quick Auctions, donations are appreciated but not necessary. And it's cheaper than buying gold while not being against the ToS!



Groups
Groups are how you manage what items should be managed by Quick Auctions. You can set auction settings either as a default, or per group giving you flexibility over everything without having to duplicate your settings 50 times. There are no limits to how many items can be grouped, see the configuration in /qa config to set them up.

Mail
Includes a timer in the top left of the mailbox indicating how much time before new mail data becomes available, and if you are not using Postal then QA provides its own auto looting for mail. The auto looter will work with the timer on the mailbox cache so it will loot everything, wait until new mail is available and then keep looting.

Auto mailing can now be done per item or per group to any character you want. For example, you can setup your banker to send uncut gems to your jeweler and you can setup your jeweler to send cut gems to your banker. The auto mailer is intelligent in when it sends mail off, and works best when using QA mail looter. If you are trying to loot herbs from your mailbox while auto mailing them to your scribe, it will send mail off whenever it sees your inventory is full. Basically, if you have 4 open slots it will auto mail/loot with only 4 slots, no more clearing out your bags to loot mail anymore!

General options

  • Smart undercutting - Instead of always using the undercut value, it will round it to the nearest gold piece if possible (10g99s -> 10g, 5g -> 5g - undercut price)
  • Smart cancel - Cancels auctions a bit smarter than usual, will cancel an item if you can re list it at a higher price and won't cancel it if items are below the threshold
  • Cancel with bid - Lets you choose if you want to cancel auctions with bids on them

Item options
  • Auto mail - Automatically mail items directly to your banker that are managed by QA
  • Post cap - How many of an item can be up at any one time (If you are undercut this number is reset)
  • Post time - How long to post an auction
  • Undercut - How much to undercut by
  • Bid percent - How much bid should be set to as a percentage of buyout
  • Threshold - Cap on how low an auction can go, if it'll be posted below the threshold price it won't be posted
  • Per auction - How many items to post per an auction
  • Fallback - If no other auctions are up, how much should it list an item for
  • Fallback cap - How high above the fallback an item can go, helps prevent posting a single Frostweave Cloth at 100g if someone sets it at an extraordinary price
  • Auto fallback - If the market price is below your thresold, QA will automatically post it at the fallback price
  • Maximum price gap - How much of a price difference is allowed between the lowest and second lowest items before QA undercuts the second lowest, this will also cancel your auctions if the price gap gets too high
  • Ignore stacks over - Allows you to ignore any auctions with a stack above X when determining price, useful if you want to post against the market price of 1 Abyss Crystal rather than the market price of posting 20 at once
What changed between 2 and 3?
While the configuration in QA2 was an improvement over the original QA, it still wasn't good enough. QA3 has a rewritten configuration and should be much easier for people to understand and use without having to learn to use QA through trial and error.

Scan speed has been increased quite a bit again and has been tightened up to reduce the chance of conflicts. In previous versions, QA would Query -> Wait 0.50 seconds -> Check Data -> Either parse it or wait 0.50 seconds, this made sure that whenever auctions were scanned all data was available including who posted them. The problem is, most of this data becomes available instantly after your initial 1-3 seconds. In 3 it's been changed: Query -> Check Data -> Wait 0.50 Seconds -> Parse or wait 0.50 seconds. Best case this means you will save 0.50 seconds per query (50 seconds/100 items), and worse case you won't see any speed increase.

Mail has been improved to make life easier for people, both a mail scrapper and a smarter mail sender were added. See the mail section above for more information.

Setting scope was improved, most basic options in QA including group settings have been moved to the global profile while server/faction specific settings can still be changed per profile. Letting you setup different profiles of how QA should handle different groups, without having to duplicate all of your group list over and over.
QA3 isn't done yet, and I have more planned still like summary improvements and easy buying of items.

Shadowed:
- Fix positioning of tradeskill frame
- Fixes for 4.3
- Fix tradeskill button positioning
- Should make canceling work again with hardware events
- Make open all work again, add posting back with necessary hardware event work, some initial work on canceling
- Initial conversions to WoWAce, nothing should actually work yet

Rotten: Are they undercutting you on bid? If they undercut you on either buyout or bid then it will cancel it, if they match your buyout and post at the same bid or a higher bid then it won't.

Vidboy: /script QA.postButton:Enable(); QA.scanButton:Enable(); next push I'll make it auto stop scanning and reenable things if you close the AH window.

Undercut search

How do I get the Item scan to NOT cancel auctions that have been Matched by people on my white list. Meaning I only want it to Cancel auctions where people have actually went Below my current price.

What was the script command to unlock the buttons again? I looks through all these post but I think it's too old now, I still need to reset once in a while when i do something stupid like close the AH window in the middle of "super"

Crafting + canceling went into this push.

Using the craft queue is slightly confusing, but it's done more for speed over ease of use since it's not that hard to understand once you've used it once or twice.

In the summary window, double click an item (You cannot double click headers) and it will turn gold, the item name will change from "Glyph of Death Grip" to "0 x Glyph of Death Grip" type a number, and it will change, so if you type 20 it will turn into "20 x Glyph of Death Grip", if you hit ENTER the "20" will turn green and the item name will turn back to white. This means the item has been entered into the craft queue.

You can reset everything in the craft queue by clicking the button below "Show hidden" in the summary, or you can double click the item and hit ESCAPE to clear a specific item.

You can access the craft queue by clicking the "QA" button near the "X" (to close the window) in the tradeskill window, clicking on item names will craft as many as its set to, or can whichever comes first. It also shows a material list which is how much you need to craft everything.

Next push I'm going to implement a faster way of posting auctions, assuming you have inventory space it will work something like:


If you have 3 auctions, Glyph of Strangulate, Glyph of Death Grip, Glyph of Bone Armor, you have a post cap of 2, currently it will do this:

Split 2 Glyph of Strangulate, post 2, split 2 Glyph of Death Grip, post 2, split 2 Glyph of Bone armor, post 2.

The new system would work something like:

Split 2 Glyph of Strangulate, post 2 Glyph of Strangulate
While posting 2 Glyph of Strangulate split 2 Glyph of Death Grip
Once Glyph of Strangulate is posted, post 2 Glyph of Death Grip
While posting 2 Glyph of Death Grip, split 2 Glyph of Bone Armor.

This requires more inventory space (Basically enough to hold post cap * 2 at once) but is faster overall.

NOTE I am moving to using my portal for feature and bug requests, please direct them to http://www.wowinterface.com/portal.php?id=269 from now on general comments and such can still go in the comments, but as I do not have unlimited time anymore it's easier for me to see what needs to be fixed or implemented if I can just look at a single list instead of searching through 60 addon comments.

Even if you already posted a bug or feature, reposting it in the portal would be a big help. Thanks!

Unfortunately, auto crafting is not going to happen as it's impossible. So instead you will get a little pop out frame on the trade skills that lists your craft queue along with total materials needed, that you can click to craft, can't use in combat, yada yada.

Zenn: Probably not going to happen soon, I need to redo the configuration to support categories such as "Scarlet Ruby" to apply to all * Scarlet Rubys before I do that.

Request: Max Buyout

If not already requested or implemented, would you consider a "maxbuyout" by category or item? This prevents you from undercutting someone who put up a 20g item for 1000g making you look just as lame for posting one for 999g? lol

I'd be really happy just being able to click on something in the summary window to do the crafting.

Nope. It's not a problem with splitting the stacks. I have an entire bag and a half of empty space. And no, I never touch my inventory while it's doing stuff.

Santiclause: Are you running with bags full or nearly full? Or did you move something around at the time.

Vidboy: That, it would not do. And no, it would not, that gets a tad more into automation than I want it to. Odds are it will check your parchment totals at start, and then buy whatever it needs to make the new ones preserving what you had in your inventory as the total to end with.

I actually originally had 1133, and that's when it stopped working - I downloaded the new one and it still didn't work.

However, I do believe it stopped working after I messed up the cancel somehow - it was done scanning, so I searched something, but apparently it wasn't done scanning? I don't know. Which confuses me, because how could it suddenly not work now, when I deleted all the saved variables and started fresh?

Would be nice if we could set the amount of each type of parchment we'd like to keep on hand so we just go to the vendor and it would fill to the limits. I know I had this for my mage for the runes for portals and teleports, was a handy feature. Would the autocrafting work in super mode or can you make it work?

Santiclause: If you try and grab r1133 from http://wowinterface.com/downloads/fi...12196#archives it starts to work again I take it? It might be due to the canceling changes from yesterday, but I haven't had any issues with it even with glyph posting.

tqphan: Yea it will, I run the same setup with a bank alt + main(s) doing the actual crafting so it's useless for me as well if it doesn't.

It's not going to do the auto buying to start with I think, but at least auto crafting will make life easier.

Problem

It's currently only posting one item. Like, I'll hit "post items", it will scan all 50 or whatever glyphs, it will split one stack up, and then it will post exactly one glyph, and stop. The "post items" button stays greyed out at 0/76 items, and it doesn't go away until I relog.

I've tried disabling all addons except for QA, deleting the QA saved variables, and I just can't for the life of me figure out what the hell is going wrong. It worked fine yesterday, it just randomly decided to break today.
