You're making dreams come true with every update... I've got another challenge for you...

Would it at all be possible to somehow list jewelry in the auto-categories IF they are part of a specific armour type? For example, the "Sunderflame" set is medium armour only, but I have a rule to group together light armour sets with:


How would I be able to still add jewelry (equiptype("ring", "neck")) but only if they are part of a set that exists in light armour? Not sure if at all possible, but would really neaten things up.

Right now I have to have "armour type sets" separately, and then a category for "set jewelry" which are auto-categorised with autoset().

EDIT: Hoping to get some advice from you to write neater rules. Is there any way to shorten the below rule, as I am duplicating some aspects:


Basically, I want any gear that can be researched, that isn't in a set and is not a Legendary item to be categorised, OR any gear, regardless of in a set or not, which isn't an Artifact or Legendary, to be categorised.

EDIT 2: Is there a way to differentiate between the only item that has a trait researchable vs. the duplicates that can be safely discarded? As right now the only thing stopping this item from being properly categorised as "Deconstruct" is the keepresearch() rule, which I'm afraid to remove from the overall rules lest my Deconstruct rule then wants to also deconstruct items that I have only one of a specific trait...

My Deconstruct rule, as it stands, and here is my Researchable rule.

EDIT 3: I definitely need some help writing more efficient rules, see the below:


I have 3 different rules to match for, to Deconstruct an item:

1) It must be a weapon or armor, less than or equal to CP 160, not a set item, and less than Legendary.
2) It must be a weapon or armor, less than or equal to CP 160, and less than Legendary.
3) It must be a weapon or armor, less than CP 160, and less than Legendary.

I know it is somewhat overkill, but when you have OCD, time is of the essence and you have no idea how much your add-on really saves me... I can just farm and farm and farm and it takes seconds to deal with the loot. I'm hoping to perhaps share my rules, in time, with others. Perhaps you can add it as a "preset" as it has a really good base to categorise pretty much everything.

EDIT 4: Am I wrong in assuming the following:

If we have a CP 160 item, not in a set, of Artifact quality, the moment it finds a match, it'll stop looking for the same research trait to put in the Researchable category? Or is that not how it works? Do I want to be matching the lowest level/quality first (reverse the rules) to be more effective?

Also, please let me know if you'd rather I send such things to your PM so as not to clutter your mod page, though, perhaps others can learn from this as well.

Thank you!

I got another issue:
I just want to create categories for each of my gear but everytime I delete all the following categories, they are back after logging out and in again?!



Btw: Are you german? Would make it easier for me!

But why that space isn‘t on the screenshot?
The bigger the bag is, the more lagy it is, so that space is counterproductive.

I don‘t have that many items in my inventory, so my plan was to see my full inventory without scrolling but that space doesn‘t allow it, without sizing the font/icons totally down.

Why there is that space between the categories? It isn't on the screenshots.

I am also having issues with deconstructing gear using Doitall in conjunction with Autocategory. I also use FCO. Using 'deconstruct all' the game will wig out with a in game message 'You can't deconstruct an item you are wearing.' followed by a spam message 'No usuable item found' which will continue until I esc out of the deconstruct interface. I have cleared out the saved variables of both and reinstalled with no luck. The issues started with AutoCategory v.110 and has persisted through v.113. V.109 works fine. If there is any other information I'll do my best to provide. Thanks for addressing this issue.

Thanks for your response, rockingdice, I truly appreciate it! The amount of progress that has been made is exceptional, and right now it is in a perfectly satisfactory state, covering many aspects such as item quality and cost! Can't wait to see what else you end up adding.

not in your plans, I'll have to turn off your addon when deconstruct all /

You're seriously one of the best and active developers around! So happy about the quality API, wow! That'll come in super handy! I assume trash and white are just synonyms for each other, correct? The same as "magic" and "green"? Use either or?

I'll be sure to try the keybind option, forgot you just added it in the last update, hopefully that works! Perhaps another option would be to add a delay to when the categorising starts for a certain bag (Guild/Bank)? Or to not have auto-update happen as items are added to the bank (that is what BMR + Roomba do) and leave it so categories only update when either 1) user pushes a keybind or 2) user switches tabs? That would be super helpful.

Also, I just wanted to ask if this is normal behavior.

As, the way it is, read recipes still get categorised as "Unknown" as per my rule, but if I put the islearnable() in the front of that rule, then it works normally? I'd have thought it works either way?

Also, regarding the new function, you'd still have to manually "export settings" each time you add a rule. Is there no way to just have an option in the settings menu where we just use one setting for all bags?

This add-on is seriously on its way to becoming an amazing all-in-one tool for every scenario... The amount of time it shaves off of handling inventory items is INSANE! And with the API I can have smart rules to help filter what items I can sell to the guild store, such as rare recipes or set items of a certain quality and level... The possibilities are endless. Perhaps one thing we'd need is occasional backups, but that I can handle on my end for myself.

Do you think you can get an API up that can handle items currently needed for a Writ? That way we can just select "ALL" items in a bank, and the category will show only Writ items, as suggested before; if I need to make a Calcinium item, it'll show Calcinium Ingots, etc.

EDIT: I've noticed that sometimes the research category I have doesn't work as it should. Going by this image, do you see anything that should stop it from marking it correctly? My Researchable category is rather simple, compared to the rest... keepresearch() and cp() < 160. It is researchable, it isn't in my bank but in my inventory, it is under CP 160... What gives?

EDIT 2: I notice we can specify the exact quality type and match from there, but is there no way to say something like quality() < "blue" so it matches EVERYTHING under Blue, instead of having to match each quality up until Blue? Imagine if it were for Gold...

Also, minor request, but what are the chances there could be a message that says when we have toggled on/off the category rules by keybind? Helpful to know prior to entering the bank.
