Release Tradeskill Construction Set NeXt 4.1991b

When I saw tradeskill depot for NOS, I thought they were going to make it easier, fooled me.. It is just a big shared bank from what I can tell.

It claims to be an anywhere bank depot, so that is good, so you can open it up in the woods, underwater, or in the grey? right? and super stack sizes...

Are we getting mq.TLO.FindItemDepotCount ? I suppose I could just look at the beta windows and glean that info :p

Fixed my self inflicted error trying to pass integers as arrays...
 
getting used to the way the plugin works but am still running into issues using the batch option is there any way to alphabetize the batch list once you create it
and during baking batch a ton of ice creams I am getting a missing items list that should have nothing to do with the recipes am I doing something wrong?

I refuse to let people waste Ice Of Velious..

so for anything that can use temporary ice it will replace it, buuut..

YOU need this:


If you generated the list, it should have said you need a gnome to make the item.

Why would I use such an Iron Fist? Baking to 350 uses a lot of Ice of Velious, but if you have the tinkered item it just makes temporary ice and you lose no farmed items. IoV is easier to get than it used to be, but still, it is an absolute show stopper if the recipe calls for Temp Ice being made out of IoV.

A quick look:

There are 57 recipes that can use Ice, there are 75 recipes that need IoV no matter what. However for the 57, you potentially only need 1 IoV to farm to make the glaciator to make all those recipes without anything extra other than a water flask.

This is one of those 5000 bucks is better than 300 dollars.

It currently maintains the order how it is added, I have quite a few windows that use different column variables and was thinking of collapsing them down, the main issue being all these windows have different assignments to the variables as in some may be an Item ID , others might be a Recipe ID, but if I can just get them all to fall in line I can at least try to sort by name, I looked at it the other day and realized it needs some work to even attempt to do this.

So, consensus vote.. How important is sorting, and any specific windows. and finally, if it is pre-sorted, is that good enough or do you just want to click on everything?

I think I understand it, I got it working on a test lua..

it requires a little bit of consistency..



Code:
-- ADD FLAGS parms

    local flags = bit32.bor(ImGuiTableFlags.Resizable,
    ImGuiTableFlags.Reorderable,
    ImGuiTableFlags.Hideable, ImGuiTableFlags.Sortable,
    ImGuiTableFlags.MultiSortable,
    ImGuiTableFlags.RowBg, ImGuiTableFlags.BordersOuter,
    ImGuiTableFlags.BordersV,
    ImGuiTableFlags.NoBordersInBody,
    ImGuiTableFlags.ScrollY)

-- Replace ImGuiTableFlags.SortMulti

    if ImGui.BeginTable('recipe_order', 4, ImGuiTableFlags.SortMulti, 0,
                        TEXT_BASE_HEIGHT * 15, 0.0) then

--With flags

    if ImGui.BeginTable('recipe_order', 4, flags, 0,
                        TEXT_BASE_HEIGHT * 15, 0.0) then

If everything is good to go, it will sort, we need to add flags instead of SortMulti

Thanks for the help!

Something to be said about testing, I have 2 routines that are identical one for batch and one for artisan, and wouldn't you know I didn't update batch, that has been rectified..

If you are a gnome you should see something like this:

If you are not...

1665674593806.png

I tested it.. :p
 
Some do not, like some folks who go to artisan with a skill level of 0 in whatever tradeskill and just go for broke..

Some of us just have no idea what we're doing when we first start out as well. It's hard to plan around things you don't know, and the info about EQ tradeskills is a bit all over the place. So much old/outdated/conflicting information that at some point (coming into it blind) you have to just say fuck it and start somewhere. There are so many things I would have done differently in hindsight.

I made a huge noob mistake by starting out all of my TS on my main, who isn't a gnome. I left Tinkering to last, expecting to do it as the only TS on my alt, only to realize how screwed I am because I have no way to efficiently request all of the pre-req sub-combines from my main who's at almost 350 in everything else. Now I'm left (fully due to my poor pre-planning) either raising the TS on my Gnome as well, or saying screw it. I'm leaning towards the second. lol.

I also missed a few books, and only wound up finding them after farming/crafting a bunch of items that would have been auto granted to me.

Another major noob mistake I made was not realizing that you don't need 100% of all recipes to hit 350 - For my first TS, I wasted a ton of time farming mats for some of the harder recipes high up in the list, only to hit 350 while still having much easier to farm recipes left over that I could have taken advantage of.

In all though, I'm not sure how anyone would do any of this without your Lua or MQ in general. If you hadn't started way back, keeping all of your TS up to date, I feel like you'd have to have some kind of illness to even bother starting from scratch at this point.

So thanks, @jb321 . Now to just cure your documentation phobia and I think the world will be a better place :D

Can you smell what jb is cookin? If someone asked for this before, I never saw it, and I am quite surprised that no one has asked for this AFAIK..

I used fisher price arrays and tonka toy data structures in the beginning, this is why I am not just waving a magic wand and everything is sorting.. This is before I knew or had an idea of what SQLite could do along with Lua Item = {ID = r.id}

I was using simple table.sort when I could have been using SQLite.. The moral of the story is, is there a moral to this story?
 
Amazing work, and really impressed with the rate of updates / fixes, response to questions etc.
Feature request when you have some bandwidth, any chance of a favourites tab?

Define what you are looking for otherwise I would punt to a saved batch file.. a recipe or set of recipes I always use, I would just save the batch file unless there is 'extra'

List of regularly used recipes (that I can add to or remove). Currently I have to search each time,
It may be that I'm not familiar enough with all the functions of the program.
I'm unsure of the batch file you speak of. Will have another look.

Batch allows you to add recipes with quantities and save for later use with specific filenames.. whether it be 1 recipe or 100..
 
Wait til the end for the fish reveal, or just know it will highlight the fish based on the status of the checkbox so you know what fish it will swap for rather than wondering which fish..

oh ya I got it scrolling right without messing up..

Is it my imagination or do we sometimes zone into the standard guild hall from the left door when we should be going into the NGH..?
 
For the NGH crash, I get it to crash the 1st time just zoning in, but after I log in again and try it again, it just works for a long time with no crashes. So this is... mystifying..
 
During Missing Component Request. XXXXX's Familiar has no need for this item. :(

Another minor issue, if the toon grabbing an item from the bank and his bags are full it hangs with no room for the item in inventory with bank window open.

That is insane, I specifically use the ID of the toon, mq.TLO.Me.ID() as the recipient

I then run to the ID, target the ID, then pick up the item and then open trade window. I have added retargeting in after picking up the item, but not sure if that will change anything..

This is the only thing that concerns me..
mq.cmd('/click left target')

Did a quick search for click left target , if there was anything I could add to that to validate the target, didn't see anything at this time.

Meh, I can do a slot check and if there is no available slots I can skip/ignore that request and send a message, or send a message and stop the process.. Just look for my inventory management lua coming April 1st...

There is also /usetarget but it would probably do the same.
 
I need all the red cents I can get, they are going to send the goon squad after me since I went negative..
 
what would be cool if we could copy the name out of the window so we can search for it on alla or whatever place.
