[Plugin] BringToFront

[bambam922]

What is BringtoFront?

BringToFront is a simple plugin (my first) that was born out of my frustration of missing dungeon queue pops.
I would constantly queue with LazyRaider as a DPS class and go watch some videos on YouTube while I waited for my queue to pop.
Time and time again I would forget about my queue and miss a 15-20 minute wait.​

What does it do?

BringToFront simply brings the current WoW window to the foreground when a dungeon or battleground queue pop is detected.​

What is supported?

Currently, only one WoW window and one HB is supported.
I only own one account, so I do not have it coded for multiple windows.
Any class specialization will work.
I like to run dungeons myself, so manual botbases such as Lazyraider are the only ones supported.
Battleground queue pops.​

Current Known Bugs

Since BGs are implemented in Pulse() botbases that do not pulse are not supported.
See post below for botbases that are supported.

Sometimes the window will be brought forward on a pulse and a BG queue has not popped.

I must find another way to accept battlefield ports. The LUA for AcceptBattlefieldPort() is hardware protected.
I should have that fixed soon.​

Future Plans

Add configurable GUI.
Add multi-window support.
Add custom sound file support.
Add support for Arena Queue Pops. (I haven't even tried, so these might work already)
Find another way to implement PVP queues.

Sweet! Is this also working with BG pop-ups?

Not as of yet.
I always do random BGs and haven't had much of a queue time.

It can definitely be added.

 

[theclash150]

This is a fantastic idea! Multi-window support will be huge! Thanks!

 

[buzzerbeater]

wtf?

Bambam coding stuff? The End must be near!

(Great tool, thanks a lot. )

 

[bambam922]

Updated to Version 1.1

BG queuing support has been added.
It is implemented in Pulse and is different from the LFG event, so botbases that do not pulse are not supported at this time.

 

[bambam922]

Updated to version 1.2
Now has the functionality to bring the window to the front as well as automatically accept LFR/LFD invites.
Battleground ports are not supported, yet.

Is there a way to get a plugin to auto-accept the raid/dungeon invite? Currently, FPS Combat Bot is doing this - but of course it is a bot-base so you can't be doing something like herb/mine while you wait for the queue.

What is FPS Combat Bot? Just curious.

This functionality has already been built in.

It's like multibox plugin on steroids and bot based. Good stuff.

 

[rtm125]

Not complaining atall, Just curious. is there no GUI for this plugin?

 

[Galaxy]

Not meaning to necro the thread, but is this plugin still supported? I noticed this in your sig, bambam.

 

[Overnaturlig]

Possible to add "wait x seconds before accepting" ?

 

[enhet]

[Overnaturlig]

[elliottdavies7]
