RandomCompanion

Version: 3.1.4

by: Gnowknayme [More]

Choose a random mount or vanity pet at the press of a button. Companions can be weighted to be chosen more or less often, or disabled altogether. When mounting, RandomCompanion will automatically choose the best type of mount based on your location.

Usage:
Bind a key from the keybinding menu or...
"/rc mount" to choose a random mount
"/rc mount ground" to choose a random ground mount in a flyable zone
"/rc mount passenger" or "/rc mount passengerground" to choose a mount that can carry passengers
"/rc pet" to choose a random vanity pet
"/rc autorecall" to toggle automatically recalling your vanity pet after resurrecting, changing zones, or taking flight paths
"/rc randomrecall" to toggle recalling a random vanity pet after resurrecting, changing zones, or taking flight paths
"/rc dismiss" to dismiss your current vanity pet
"/rc autodismiss" to toggle automatically dismissing your vanity pet when you are stealthed and flagged for PVP
"/rc raiddismiss" to toggle automatically dismissing your vanity pet when you are in a raid
"/rc randomchange [number of minutes]" to toggle randomly changing your vanity pet occasionally. Default is every 15 minutes

If you just want to press a key, the easiest way it to use WoW's keybindings menu. However, if you want something you can click or you want something more complicated, (say you are a druid and you want it to cancel your shapeshift before mounting, and you want to be able to hold alt for a ground mount in a flying area) you can macro it with something like this:

/cancelform
/rc [modifier:alt] mount ground; mount

I'll have to look into it. Unfortunately, it may be a while since I don't currently have a Worgen character, and it will require a fundamental change in how RandomCompanion works. I'm pretty sure I'll run into the same stumbling blocks that I ran into with using Ghost Wolf and Travel Form back when I tried to add those in.

Hello!
I am using the following macro for this addon:

/rc [noflyable,nomounted][button:2,nomounted] mount ground;
/rc [flyable,nomounted] mount;
/dismount [mounted,noflying][button:2,mounted]

Basically, its a Left-click equals flying mount if possible; right-click equals ground mount always.

Problem is... HOW do I block inhibit the "/rc" instructions from appearing?

A single line should do everything you're trying to do:
/rc [button:2] mount ground; mount

However, if you still want all the trickery with only dismounting if you're on the ground, this should eliminate the /rc instructions unless you are currently flying:
/rc [noflyable,nomounted][button:2,nomounted] mount ground; flyable,nomounted] mount;
/dismount [mounted,noflying][button:2,mounted]

I'm not currently in-game to try either of these, but they should work. Maybe I'll drop in a little bit of code in the next version to suppress the instructions if a macro conditional is detected.

This is working perfectly, no instructions.

Also perfect, but the instructions still appear on dismount (on the ground too). I tried inverting the sequence, with the dismount mefore mounting. THEN the instructions don't come at all. Problem is. If I am mounted, I dismount... and mount back... rsrsrs

The new version I just posted should fix this.

Sethala A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 3 Uploads: 0	I have one complaint to make about this addon... I recently got a Guild Page. For those who don't know, it's a special vendor companion that sells any of the guild rewards items. Unfortunately, it also has an 8 hour cooldown, so it's not something that you want to summon at a random time... which is exactly what RandomCompanion is doing. I've set the Guild Page's frequency to "disabled" but he still pops up from time to time. Any way to fix that?

Disabled pets (and mounts) should never show up unless you manually call them. I'll have to take a look into it and see what could possibly be happening.

Tageshi A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 7 File comments: 249 Uploads: 4	Unable to rotate companions frame Reporting. I have installed RandomCompanion today, and noticed that when I open Companions frame and looking at vanity pets, pressing rotation button (both clock-wise and counter clock-wise) only rotate the pets a little degree, and stops rotating. This happens when only one single addon RandomCompanion is enabled. Those buttons do work and continue to rotate pets while pressing button if I disable RandomCompanion. Please check it!
