LonnyMountCast UI

LonnyMountCast 4 Updated this week!

A lightweight addon to randomize mounts!

The addon is working through macro commands, just like the macro commands used in World of Warcraft you know and love best.

You can use any kind of macro option you know in the options bracket, and it should work just fine just like in the built-in macro commands.

The addon randomize mounts by a given riding skill, and for that I created a special "skill" option that allow you to specify it.

If you're mounted the addon will dismount you the second time you click the macro.

LonnyMountCast has an integrated UI now built atop the default Blizzard Mounts UI that allow you to select the mounts you wish it to randomize.

Select nothing randomizes all mounts for the given riding skill.

Macro Commands
/mount [options] flying/ground-mount; [options] flying/ground-mount
/mountrandom [options] flying/ground-mount; [options] flying/ground-mount

e.g. /mount [flyable,nomounted,skill:225,nomodifier] flying-mount; [nomounted,skill:150] ground-mount

skill - To let the addon know what kind of mounts you wish to randomize you must specify the riding skill. (Please check the 'Mounts Riding Skill' table below.)

Druids
Cancels the current form and mount.

/cancelform
/mount [flyable,nomounted,skill:300,nomodifier]flying-mount; [nomounted,skill:150]ground-mount

Here is a complete traveling macro which uses all forms, and randomizes the ground mounts only.

#showicon Swift Mistsaber
/cast [swimming]Aquatic Form;[flyable,nocombat]Flight Form;[combat]Travel Form
/cancelform [nocombat]
/mount [outdoors,nomounted,skill:150]ground-mount

Mounts Riding Skill

Skill 75: Regular Mount (Normal Speed: 60%)
Skill 150: Regular Mount (Fast Speed: 100%)
Skill 225: Flying Mount (Normal Speed: 150%)
Skill 300: Flying Mount (Fast Speed: 280%)
Skill 375: Flying Mount (Extreme Speed: 310%) - fictitious riding skill of 375 to support the 310% mounts.

I assume it is because the tool tip says "very fast mount" even though it is a 310% mount.

Correct, I'll see what I can do about this one, I hate special cases. :/

New version is up to handle this though.

I deleted both folders from addons before copying the files from the 204 archive. I also deleted the lonnycompanions_fu.lua from my savedvariables.

Problem: The feature to pop out of a form for druids does not appear to work.
Bigger Problem: I only get ground mounts. I checked my flying skill and it is set to 300. I tried shift, alt and crtl as modifiers. Hmm... headscratch.

*EDIT* confirmed.. back on 203 and working with flyers again.

I'll look into it. :P

Ok, I didn't know druids forms are considered protected, but you can workaround it through a macro, I'm not sure whether you're using FuBar, or LonnyCompanions slash command '/castcomp', but here is the way the addon is working through macros.

/cancelform
/castcomp [flyable,nomounted,skill:300,nomodifier] flying-mount; [nomounted,skill:150] ground-mount

If you are a FuBar user and decided that you rather use the macro above, you can get rid of the 'LonnyCompanionsFu' folder, as the core addon 'LonnyCompanions' including all the functionality.

I'll upload a fix for northrend soon.

I've got another one for you.

Druids.. if in any form.. will not mount. I know this is how it works with a manual mount process, but it sure would be nice if you could pop me back into NE or Tauren form and mount automatically. May be too much to ask.. but I figured I would anyway.

I'll see what I can do.

If you don't have the skill... or don't have any mounts to match the area (ie: flyer in Outlands) then don't you think it should default to the next highest available? In other words, if I click on your addon in Fubar, you should know that I can't possibly use a flyer, so mount me up on my 150 land mount. Make sense?

Yes, I know, I can use a modifier.. but I'm lazy.. that's why I grabbed your addon in the first place.

Anyway.. thanks for making the nice changes based upon a couple of comments. You da man!

Will do.

The next version will detect zone specific mounts and will use it only if you're inside the zone. [/b]

Are you experiencing something else ? The next version will detect zone specific mounts and will use it only if you're inside the zone. __________________ Lonny, Best Regards.

Ha! I was just going to say the same thing.

I too like the relative simplicity. Click a button in fubar.. and it mounts/dismounts.

Other requests I would have are:

Be able to exclude mounts (every now and then it tries to use my AQ40 mount while not in AQ40)
Set a preference by zone (this would take care of #1 as well) so it actually defaults to a random flyer in Outlands. Right now it only uses land mounts. My slider only goes to 300 riding skill for some reason.
Have the option to ad click modifiers to the fubar button.. shift click for companion, ctrl click for flyer, etc.
Use waterfall for config.

I do think you have a great start here. Keep it going.
