Hey,

yeah, I'm using that right now to generate the tooltip. I'll scan whether or not a character qualifies for the achievement in the future.

Maybe you see how the crafter knowledge is stored? That's the approach I'm right now having in mind for the achievements. It _should_ be fairly lightweight.

It could be so much worse, but then, it piles up.

Hey,

I think the reason is because TTC checks for the item tooltip to be opened, while MM checks for an inventory row to be hovered, I'm not sure. Fixing that will either be relatively simple or require me to rewrite the list from scratch (which I am postponing for around 3 years already ).


Due to how the data is structured and how ZOS handles blueprints, that's not as trivial as you imagine it (unfortunately). There is no direct connection from an item to the blueprint!
I'm listing furniture based on the item ID, that is the numerical part of an item link. You can find one by copying an item link in-game and then pasting it anywhere outside of it, it'll look like this:
|H0:item:139533:1:1:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0|h|h

The ID for this pattern is 139533.

That means, whenever you look up a recipe, I get the resulting item and look _that_ up. I make sure that any recipes the player encounters will get written to the saved variables, that's not something the API offers.

So what I'm doing is

• I run a script to datamine all furniture items and blueprints whenever ZOS releases any new content
• I throw those into a file (you can find them in the FurnitureCatalogue folder under data/MiscItemSources, for example)
• I run over all those item links to create the AddOn's data (existing entries will not be re-created to save performance).

After that, I scan the current character's crafting knowledge and iterate through those entries, there is a skill line and a skill index or something like that.
If a recipe is known, I can add an entry that they can craft it. At the time I wrote it, if it was not known, I was out of luck, because the API wouldn't even tell me what it was (they do that on purpose to prevent datamining). If any items can be crafted that do not exist within the data files, I add an entry so that they show up in FurC - however, these won't have the "link recipe" option.

So while I could add an additional column, that would include a lot of empty values, and if it is displayed, I would have to populate it by looking up the recipes. I could perhaps add a filter to only display entries with a recipe? That would require me touching the UI, which... I have been postponing for about 2 years? But it's possible.

You can, however, use the "link recipe" context menu entry (where it exists) to post the recipe to chat (that will always result in an item link) and use the link from chat to get the data.

I hope that helps you some?

Hey,
Okay, and here I thought that it would post the achievement as link. I'll look into that.

Hey,

You're talking about the pop-up that appears in the FurnitureCatalogue window, right? It's a custom control that other AddOns won't know about, so they won't register pop-ups.

My suggestion was that you do a "post item source", then post it to chat (maybe channel /s or whisper it to yourself), and click on the achievement link in your chat. That will trigger all the regular link handlers because the chat is very much part of the basegame, so your achievement tracker will know to listen to it.

I can add this. I can think of three ways to implement that:

1) add it to FurnitureCatalogue
Advantage: it's idiot-proof
Disadvantage: It requires the AddOn to be loaded on every alt, which has an impact on performance. (I've tried to keep it as light-weight as possible, but of course it has an impact)
Disadvantage: Even more data in the saved variables...
2) create another child/slave AddOn such as FurnitureCatalogueExport
Advantage: It will be more lightweight
Disadvantage: Mostly maintennace, depending on the implementation
3) find out which achievement tracker is the hot stuff that everyone uses, and bug their developer about it
Advantage: Least work for me (yes, significant)
Disadvantage: An external dependency that can break and then the function will be gone
Advantage of Disadvantage: It won't be my problem

Right now I'm tending towards option 3, however, that raises the question which achievement tracker is the most widely used and if the developer is even active?

Just adding the info won't be, but raising that in the first place may have an impact. I'd have to investigate.

I feel you...

That completely exceeds the scale of the AddOn and I won't implement it ever, sorry.
Price tracking is not trivial, as you can see by Master Merchant and its like being absolute performance hogs and gathering absurd amounts of data. What I could (potentially) do is to check if either of those AddOns is present and then process the information, but as wolfstar already said, MM does already (kind of) show that kind of information.

I will see what I can do about making the FurC list play nicer with other AddOns. Perhaps there's a hack I can use to make the individual rows look like inventory slots so they're using the same callbacks.

Due to the fact that I've gotten rather far with doing something in the most optimal way, the work in itself is rather manageable. The biggest issue is that I'm lazy and that I've effectively stopped playing ESO when they released that Ayleid dungeon with that other Last Ayleid King (it was the straw that broke the camel's back, Dynar did not deserve that!!), so I'm not likely to notice on my own if anything breaks.

Due to my superior foresight, I've set up the developer utility slave/child addon back in the day that lets me generate nice FurnitureCatalogue data entries by right-clicking on a control Grabbing the data from Zanil Theran and uploading the version takes less than five minutes, new Undaunted vendor items around ten (including traveling and grabbing the achievement IDs), any new AddOn requires around 30-ish because I have to create a new file and register new strings and datamine and stuff. It's not that much work.

Hey,
Thank you, I'll try checking that when I fix up FurC for Greymoor. I hope it's not urgent?
