Breakables

Version: 1.3.9

by: Parnic [More]

Description
Displays a bar on screen that allows quick access to enchanting, jewelcrafting, and inscription professions by presenting a Disenchant/Prospect/Mill button and all of the breakable items you have for that profession next to it. This allows one-click access for breaking down items instead of finding the item in your bag, clicking the appropriate profession button, and clicking the item for each and every item you want to break. For prospecting and milling, you will see the number of items you have alongside the number of times you can break it. In the prospecting screenshot on the right, the player has 169 total Saronite Ore in his bags which will allow for 33 total prospects.

Usage
By default, if you have the appropriate profession and items in your inventory, a bar will appear with the profession ability followed by any items that are eligible for breaking. You can hold shift to drag the bar around if you want to move it. Clicking the profession button will activate that ability (disenchant/prospect/mill) and clicking an item will break it. You don't have to click the profession button first as simply clicking the item will automatically break it down.

Configuration
Typing /brk will open the configuration settings (or you can get to it from Blizzard's Interface options) which consist of:

Hide if no breakables: this will control whether you see the profession button or not when nothing breakable is detected
Max number to display: this controls the highest number of items that you will see next to your profession button. If this is 5 but you have 10 breakable items in your bags, you will only see 5 at a time.
Show soulbound items: aimed at enchanters, this controls whether or not you will see items that are soulbound as breakable items or not.

Known issues

If you have a stack less than 5 positioned properly in your bags, the game will say that you do not have enough items to break. This is a bug in Blizzard's API and is present with all similar tradeskill mods that I've tried out. You can use something like kRestack or ArkInventory to help compress stacks.

v1.3.9:
- updated TOC for patch 5.2

v1.3.8:
- updated TOC for patch 5.1

v1.3.7:
- fixed recognition of MoP junkboxes, herbs, and ore

v1.3.6:
- updated TOC for patch 5.0.4

v1.3.5:
- updated TOC for patch 4.3

v1.3.4:
- updated TOC for patch 4.2

v1.3.3:
- updated TOC for patch 4.1
- ticket #10: look through the first 5 lines of the tooltip to find "millable" or "prospectable" instead of requiring it to be on line 2
- moved LibButtonFacade's Group:Skin call from :OnInitialize() to :OnEnable(). apparently OnInitialize is too soon and causes the custom skin to get overwritten. (ticket #9)
- added tracking for rogue junkboxes (obtained via 'pick pocket'). clicking the junkbox will automatically unlock it
- shortened the delay for processing items after a BAG_UPDATE to 1 second (from 1.5)

v1.3.2:
- properly parented the Breakables frame to UIParent so that it will go away when the user presses alt-z (thanks slayman). note that this change makes the Breakables frame use the UI Scale specified in video settings so it may initially not be in the same location you last set it to and could be a different size.

v1.3.1:
- fixed a bug where the tooltip could be completely wrong or empty sometimes

v1.3:
- fixed an error about AceGUI and AceConfigDialog that were showing up on load in certain situations
- minor garbage/performance fixes
- added spell tooltip to profession button
- added ButtonFacade support (ticket #7)
- added option to specify which direction the buttons grow toward (by Slayman's request)
- enabled new target-item/spell attributes for secure buttons instead of hacking together a macro
- don't show heirloom items as disenchantable

v1.2.2:
- fixed bar position not being saved/restored properly when moved out of the upper left section of the screen

v1.2.1:
- fixed reported error message

v1.2:
- created one bar per profession for the case where someone has some combination of inscription, enchanting, and jewelcrafting
- set bar to update immediately after clicking an item to break it instead of waiting the 1.5 seconds. it was making life harder for mass breaking
- added button scale and font size options
- added localization support
- optimized a little bit of the code that finds breakables in your bags by delaying checks on BAG_UPDATE until 1.5 seconds after the last update request has come in
- set the button font for item counts to use NumberFont_Outline_Med so that any font overrides (like tekticles) work automagically
- added LibDataBroker support
- added option to hide the bar entirely (ticket 5) and option to hide the bar when in combat
- added short description to the config page explaining the functionality in the mod and how to get support/request features
- made all slash commands print something back to the user so they know what they changed

v1.1:
- added ability to hide soulbound disenchantable items that are part of an equipment manager set (since some quest rewards and such are soulbound but the player doesn't actually use them)

I love this addon. I have two suggestions/requests.

Is it possible to do a right click to compress inventory if you have ArkInventory? Maybe a separate plug in?

This has been requested in the past. Hopefully I'll have time for it eventually

Thanks

Not right now, but that's a good suggestion. Thanks!

Multiple professions should work just fine...last I checked, you would get a bar for each profession. Does that not work any more?

For profiles, it seems unnecessary since you can control addons per-character on the character selection screen

I LEARN enchanting, jewelcrafting
BUT JUST SHOW enchanting BAR

Reload your UI or re-login and the second bar will display. It doesn't get created automatically when you learn a new profession.

I have DE key-bound to one of my keys (as I use it a lot) and it does nothing. Also if I try to use the your DE button same thing. Nothing happens.

EDIT: Never mind. I was the noob, not reading the instruction and clicking both the DE button and the item. Clicking just the item works perfectly. Thx.

Glad you got it working. The profession icon is just there to show you what the bar is going to do (in the case of someone having both milling and enchanting, for example) but the goal of the mod is to save clicks. I should probably make the profession button non-interactive.

Yeah. if the equipment manager items are ignored (not shown) even if they are in the bag, then it indeed does what I need. Just soulbon would not cut it, as we all do loot a lot of soulbound stuff in instas or quest, but with also the intention of DE-ing after-words.

Anyway, great job then and I am sure to try it out.

If not, then I would suggest an option to be able to add custom items to an "always ignore" list.

In the mean time, I guess not, but no harm in asking. Does it ignore items that I have equipped?

Thanks

So, after using this addon for a while, I thought of a bit that might make it even better, essentially boil prospecting and milling (cause I mill quite a few different herbs) down to one button like I do with macros:

Make it so that rather than breaking items down when you click on an items button, it toggles that item on (I figure just give it a green glow outline like bag addons do for green items) so that the user toggles which items they want to break down, and then click the trade skill icon until there are no more.

...after writing that, I'm not sure if I actually made sense.

You can basically do the same thing by setting Breakables to only show 1 button. It saves you a click from having to say "use this herb" then press the milling button. Instead, you simply click the button of the herb you want to break over and over. I actually think your change would add more clicks to the equation which is what Breakables is trying to get rid of

.

You can also do the same thing by just clicking the herb/ore closest to the trade skill button. As you run out of that, the others will shift down and you never have to move your mouse.

Also I've run into an issue where if theres a partial stack (less than 5) in my bags before a full stack of then it just gives the error for not enough materials. While this isn't a huge issue, I use AdiBags, which doesn't actually show you the order they are really in when you use its "Virtual stacks" option.

Yes, this is addressed on the addon info page. It's something I'd like to fix for the future but beyond the scope of the addon right now (plus I'm working, the wife's pregnant, I'm playing Cataclysm, I have other mods, etc.

Originally posted by vbaspcppguy
A fix for this would be to cast the spell (mill, prospect, disenchant), iterate though the bags to find the a stack larger than five and then use the PickupContainerItem to cast on that stack. Reasonably sure that should work

In the case of Breakables, this approach wouldn't work. I'm using attributes like so:

Code:

btn:SetAttribute("spell", BreakableAbilityName)
btn:SetAttribute("target-item", foundBreakables[i][IDX_NAME])

Granted, that could be using target-bag and target-slot, but that still doesn't solve the problem of the user potentially having 50 stacks of 4 herbs each which is why a restacker is desirable. As you mentioned, however, there are other mods that provide that functionality so it's lower priority for Breakables at this point in time.
