PetBattleAutoForfeit

Version: 5.2.0.18

by: Phanx [More]

Quickly forfeit pet battles with no available upgrades.

When you enter a wild pet battle where none of the enemy pets are an upgrade, a full-screen prompt will appear. Click anywhere to forfeit, or right-click to continue the battle anyway.

Note that full automation is not possible, and the click is required, because forfeiting a pet battle requires a hardware action. Also, if you don't click immediately the pet battle system will take a second or two to complete the starting sequence before accepting your forfeit.

You can also shift-click the regular Forfeit button to forfeit immediately at any time without confirmation.

Options

Type “/pbaf” to open the options pane, or browse to it in the game’s Interface Options window.

You can specify the minimum quality to consider an upgrade (eg. if you are only interested in rares) and how many levels higher a wild pet must be to be considered an upgrade at the same quality.

Feedback

Post a comment. Please note that I consider this addon to be complete, and will probably not add any new features.

Language Support

Not planned. If you're battling for XP or achievements, rather than for the purpose of upgrading your pets, you should probably just disable the addon temporarily, rather than trying to get the scope of the addon expanded.

Phanx, certainly can do that

Another idea - have the Addon monitor if you have used a pet ability, and if so, it clears the dimming/cancel message.

Thanks again for the addon!

Phanx A Pyroguard Emberseer Forum posts: 2624 File comments: 1696 Uploads: 30	There'll be an update shortly. I'm converting the addon to use LibPetJournal-2.0 so I can quit copy-pasting the same pet journal scanning code between all of my pet-related addons, and adding shift-clicking on the regular forfeit button to skip the confirmation dialog and forfeit immediately. In the meantime, just check "Load out of date addons" on the in-game addons list and it should work just fine. __________________ Author/maintainer of Grid, PhanxChat, and many more.

Phanx A Pyroguard Emberseer Forum posts: 2624 File comments: 1696 Uploads: 30	Collecting pets that aren't upgrades is outside the scope of what I wrote this addon to do. If that's what you're after, you can either (a) seek out higher level pets to battle, (b) modify the addon yourself, or (c) disable the addon and click the forfeit button yourself if you don't see a pet you want. Edit: Actually, as long as you never open the options window, you can probably just edit the value in your saved variables file to -25 or even -10000000 in Notepad, and it will probably work the way you want. __________________ Author/maintainer of Grid, PhanxChat, and many more.

This is the reason I requested the slider to have a larger range. If I want to capture any level blue quality pet it would not forfeit. This would allow you to collect up to 3 of that pet at the highest quality regardless of its level. Therefor if Blizz adds the option to trade wild pets or if I want a team of the same pet I have backups.

The slider might not be the best way but maybe a checkbox to not forfeit at the sign of any level blue quality pet.

Phanx A Pyroguard Emberseer Forum posts: 2624 File comments: 1696 Uploads: 30	I think you may be misunderstanding what that option does. Let's say you have a level 25 green Scorpid. You enter a battle with a level 1 blue Scorpid. Regardless of your level setting, you will not be prompted to forfeit, because a higher quality always allows a battle. Now, if you have a level 15 blue Scorpid and enter battle with a level 12 blue Scorpid, you will be prompted to forfeit, because it wouldn't make sense to capture a lower level of the same quality. If you have a level 15 blue Scorpid and enter battle with a level 17 blue Scorpid, the level setting is consulted. The enemy pet is 2 levels higher than yours, so if your level setting is lower than 2, you will be prompted to forfeit, but if it's 2 or higher, you won't be prompted. Any blue quality pet already skips the forfeit prompt if you don't already have a blue quality of that pet. The level setting only comes into play when the available pet is the same quality as the one you already have. __________________ Author/maintainer of Grid, PhanxChat, and many more.

Darst A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 2 Uploads: 0	Level Slider Can you make the Pet Level Slider in the Options allow for a wider range? If you could set it to -25 though 25 that would allow any blue quality pet to trigger a battle. Great addon btw Last edited by Darst : 01-20-13 at 01:35 PM.

Phanx A Pyroguard Emberseer Forum posts: 2624 File comments: 1696 Uploads: 30	I don't plan to add any options. Left-click was an intentional decision to avoid accidents. I generally spam right-click trying to hit the pet to start the battle, and I'd rather not lose a rare pet by accidentally right-clicking one too many times. __________________ Author/maintainer of Grid, PhanxChat, and many more.
