Request: Move to X - Plugin to help/ease traveling.

[znuffie]

So, I was thinking while during this god damn midsummer fire festival - can someone code a plugin that moves your character to specified coords in game?

I hate moving all over Eastern Kingdoms manually for those fires, and while HB has its own mesh now, how hard would be to code a simple plugin that reads some preset locations from an XML file and allows in-game and world coords to be punched in directly.

Here's a UI mockup.

just use goto-profiles ?

 

[znuffie]

That requires going to that location in the first place, creating a profile each time bla bla bla bla bla, waste of time for just a quick, one-time travel

 

[ZoOoOoM]

Yes!!!!

I wanted to request this long ago but i somehow forgot xD

I think Darkben was working on something like that, at least he was looking for the converting method xyz<-> ingame xy coords.

if you just want to manual input your Hornorbuddy XYZ cords, you can do that easily with the api then just invoke navigator to move. and thats all there is too it.

if someone could figure out the in-game coords to world map coords... that'd be win.

That's extremely easy with HB. We already have all the data available in the API.

And what about a plugin AND a addon linked together, and clic on the map ig to travel to this place ?

^^ this

god damn fillers I hate this shit...

You mean HB knows how to handle in-game coords for specific areas?

Meaning, if you feed HB coords for 20,20 in Icecrown, it knows how to go there?

 

[Cittidel]

As long as no flight paths, elevators, flying mounts etc are required, HB should be able to make it.

 

[znuffie]

I know what you mean, but I'm asking if HB can handle map coords in the format that addons inside the game handles. Not stuff like X="5463.26" Y="67.30072" Z="148.6113"
