Mini-changelog:
1.4.0 r9:

- update toc to 20400
1.2.4 r26163:
- Fix a library issue with AceHook that prevented addon from loading
1.2.4:
- Bump toc to 20003

- Unshapeshift only registers taxi event if druid or shaman

- Wuss, Ding, and Loner default to off
- Fix bug in Queue that would not reset a delayed battleground join timer if leaving a queue and rejoining
- Add option to queue to automatically join the battlefield queue

1.2.2:
- Added several modules: AutoLootBOP, AutoStand, AutoSummon
- fixed a bug in AutoDismount that prevented dismounting when the player had debuffs
- added shaman and priests to Unshapeshift

1.2.0 r19309: Uploaded .zip again, some libraries seemed to be missing.
1.2.0: Removed AutoTrade, no longer compatable with 2.0. Added a couple new modules.
1.1.1: Fixed issues with options tables which caused DeuceCommander to be unhappy.
1.1.0: Modularized, added a host of new features.
NOTE: The version of Automaton on wowace.com has not been updated by me in some time, and is most certainly different from the release here. At some point I may fix this, but for now, the version posted here is my "official" version.
Optional Files - Automaton
Sorry, there are currently no optional files available.
It's been a long time. Took a long break from wow, but have been playing again in recent months. Been meaning to do some updates for Automaton, wasn't sure that anyone still used it
I would like to note that presently I haven't merged changes made to the wowace version, so it's going to be different than the one I've just uploaded here. For now, this is the "official" version.
Hushnowxx: Rez disables itself automatically. Not the most elegant way to solve the problem I was having, but you can turn on the "persist" option to keep it from turning itself off if that's what you prefer.
I have 1 problem with this addon, the auto rez feature turns off every 1st auto rez so I have to enable it after each auto rez. Anyone experiencing the same problem?

Originally posted by shieldb Any chance we could get blocking guild petitions in addition to guild invites?
Additionally, having an option to block trades while at the bank, mailbox, or AH would be awesome - I don't want to block trades completely but I don't want people opening a trade window with me and having the interface automatically closing whatever it is that I'm actually doing.
Great add-on, but I'm having one issue. When I try to talk to an innkeeper it will automatically bring up the trade interface. I can't reply to the innkeeper to say that I want to make that inn my new home.
I love this mod. My only request would be to seperate the auto group accept for friends and guilds. I love auto acceptng from my friends but I am not always willng to do so from every member of my guild.

They're on the svn now, along with some other GossipData additions.

My fault with the AceHook errors. I completely forgot that Automaton still had AceHook-2.0 in it's toc/externals. I don't use the embeds, I use the libraries separately so I miss things regarding the libraries occasionally. I'll upload a fixed version in a few minutes.
I received the error 'Cannot find a library instance of AceHook-2.1.' upon logging in with this mod active. I'm not a pro with mods. Can I fix this myself?
I had an error regarding AceHook-2.0. I use Fubar which is currently using AceHook-2.1. I copied the folder and made the necessary adjustments in the .toc file. So far the mod loads fine with no errors. Might want to look into the new AceHook-2.1 and see if there are any incompatibility issues.
As I understand, only one instance of Ace loads, regardless if many mods are utilizing. I think Fubar is taking first dibs of the load.
So do I need to use Deuce Commander in order to utilize a GUI of the options? Or is this built in already?

I'm getting a new error every time I mount after the 01/09/2007 patch:
