AutoEmote

Version: 1.2

by: Tajin [More]

AutoEmote lets you chat with more style.

Originally this addon was made to cope with the lack of chatbubbles by making talking players a bit more noticable (with emotes).

It has evolved from there and now features a wide variety of emotes that get triggered automatically when you chat and depending on what you say.

So no matter if you just want something that makes it easier for others to spot you when you're talking or if you want a nice tool to help your roleplaying, this might be just the addon for you.

Commands:
/autoemote - toggles the addon on/off

Default setup (per channel):

/say - Reacts to a wide range of generic keywords or checks for ! / ? at the end of the line if it couldn't find other keywords
/party - Uses the same filter as /say but only triggers when partymembers are nearby (needs testing)
/yell - Makes your character play the /shout emote
/emote - Uses a different filter that is tailored to toggle for different /emote keywords
For your own safety, AutoEmote will not trigger while you're in combat.
By default, AutoEmote is set to react to English and German keywords.

Here's an example :
/emote whistles happily

[Tajin] whistles happily

This will automatically trigger the /whistle emote.

Custom configuration:
If for any reason you aren't happy with my predefined filters, you can adjust them to your own needs. (though I'm always open for suggestions that I can include in the next update)
The filters are fully configurable.

To do so, open the "AutoEmoteFilter.lua" in a texteditor and make your changes. The basic layout is explained at the beginning of the file, but it should be fairly clear.
(if it isn't clear enough, then you probably shouldn't mess with it anyway)

Thanks for reading,
enjoy the addon.

v1.2 - 10.04.2014

Fixed a bug with the namefilter - emotes should now trigger only for your own chat, as intended.

v1.11 - 04.04.2014 - Quickfix

Fixed the default filter - /sitchair wrongfully occured too often

v1.1 - 04.04.2014

Rewrote filtering mechanism
Filter stored in separate file - easier to adjust
Some safety checks added - AE won't trigger in combat
All channels can be used (in theory)
Partychannel only triggers emotes when partymembers are in range (requires testing)
Default filters for /emote channel added

v1.0 - Initial release

listen to messages on /say
messages filtered "manually"
on/off trigger included
on/off state is saved

Good to know.

While it may not be user-friendly, editing the file on its own is easy enough it seems, so there's that.

Feel free to add your thoughts. 1. add "/yell" - guess this only really needs one emote, regardless of what you're yelling 2. add Partychat - identical to /say but only when other partymembers are nearby 3. add more exceptions: - don't trigger when the player is in combat - don't trigger when the player is in stealth - (not sure) don't trigger when the player is moving 4. some more keyword/emote combinations, including a few exotic ones that likely won't trigger very often 5. I'll consider adding some useroptions but I'm still not sure what makes sense here. Maybe just a few toggles for different channels. 6. I'll move the filters to a separate file, restructure them and add some comments for those who want to make their own changes.

As an example, it'd be very handy for things like: /emote nods his head in greeting. With an automatic /nod. One other thing I'd suggest, assuming it is possible, is perhaps some form of toggle or prevention system for when the player is already in a looping emote. This most refers to things like any of the /sit or /sleep emotes, which autoemote will break to play it's own on triggers. However, that may not be possible. Which is fine. In that case it's just a matter of the user toggling it off manually during such times. Filters in a separate file for easier customization is great. As it was I found it easy to read, but others may not. Last edited by : 04/03/14 at 07:09 AM.

I don't think theres a way to detect if another emote is already playing.

Good idea, I'll include that. In fact I'll just make the filter fully configurable.

Here's an example of the config:

Code:

local AutoEmoteFilter = {
	[CHAT_CHANNEL_YELL] = {
		{	
			0,
			{""},
			{"/shout"}
		}
	},
	[CHAT_CHANNEL_EMOTE] = {
		{	
			2,
			{" music "," song "," musik "},
			{"/drum","/flute","/lute"}
		},{	
			2,
			{" dance"," dancing "," tanzt "," tanzen "},
			{"/dance","/dancedrunk","/"}
		}
	},
	[CHAT_CHANNEL_SAY] = {

I'll have to do a bit more testing first but if all goes well, I'm going to upload the new version later today.

Well, seems like the ESO release-downtime messed up my schedule a bit.

I don't think I'm doing anything wrong. I didn't try to add any different emotes to your filter list either. Is it not fully implemented yet? I've yet to try in a group as my friends aren't online yet.

Hmm ok, I'll check it out when I get home.
It worked alright yesterday but there's a slim chance that I ****ed something up when I uploaded it today.

Meanwhile, you can try using v1.0 instead, see if that works for you.

Thanks for reporting.

Anyone else having problems with v1.1 ?

My bad, there was a mistake in the filter.
Open AutoEmoteFilter.lua, search for /sitchair and in both cases change the 1 to a 2.

I'll upload a fix shortly.

1.0 doesn't work either. Is there a clash with another addon maybe? I'm using FTC and SpamFilter. Perhaps SpamFilter is doing something it shouldn't be? SpamFilter blocks out gold seller ads from chat.
