Hotep® Crafting Freelancer Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.03

by: tomtomhotep, YesImBattman

This addon lets you become a Custom Equipment Crafter for Hire!

Features:

Periodically advertises your services on Zone Chat.
Takes orders from customers using an automated chat interface.
- Automatically mails them a receipt when they complete their order.
Lets potential customers request pricing lists, and automatically mails the lists to them.
Allows customers to provide their own crafting mats for a discount (if you configure that option).
- When option is enabled, the customer is prompted if they want to provide their own mats
  - If they answer yes, the addon mails them the list of mats needed for the order, including the per-unit discounts for each mat.
Allows you to require deposits from customers if their order total is above a threshold you set (if you set one).
- Automatically mails the customer a request for the deposit amount (if they owe one), and
- Automatically detects when you receive the deposit.
Lists your Waiting, Started, and Delivered Orders on the main window.
Displays the order you're working on, and the materials needed to complete it.
Helps you get needed materials from your Mule Toons (if you have any).
At any crafting station, it shows you the items you still need to craft at that station.
Chat message tells you when you've completed your order.
Automatically mails the ordered items (COD) to the customer with a few clicks.
Keeps track of your total sales and profits. *
Integrated with FCOItemsaver (to auto-mark items crafted for your order).
Addon Settings Panel has a full list of optional Slash Commands.

* NOTE: For now, if you want to keep track of your profits, you have to manually enter
your crafting mat purchases in the "Add New Purchase" window.

Set-Up:

Use the addon settings panel to set all of your selling prices and fees.
- NEW: If you have LibPrice installed, you can use any Pricing Addon to automatically set all your selling prices and fees.
All prices and fees are set on a per-unit-of-material basis.
You can also set Per-Order and Per-Item Labor Fees.
The addon does the all the math to calculate the final prices of items, and the Order Total.

WARNING!!
When using the addon settings panel, be aware that the
mouse wheel will CHANGE THE VALUES of the sliders!
So when you scroll up and down the settings panel,
BE SURE to position your mouse on the vertical scroll-bar to
the far right of the panel, far away from where the sliders are!!!!!

Pricing Example:

Lets say a customer places an order for 1 item:
Level 6 Iron Axe, Fine/Green, Training, High Elf Style, non-set item, no enchantment.

That requires 5 Iron Ingots, 1 Adamantite, 1 Carnelian, and 2 Honing Stones.
(Assuming your Blacksmithing Improvement Passive is maxed. The addon checks your passives.)

Now suppose you set your Iron price to 5g (Under Metal Weapons),
your High Elf Style Fee to 15g, your Training Trait Fee to 10g,
your Green Blacksmithing Improvement fee to 20g, your Per-Order Labor Fee to 500g,
and your Per-Item Labor Fee to 100g.

Then the addon would calculate this item's Base Price as:
(5 * 5g) = 25g

And the addon would calculate the Item Fee as:
15g + 10g + (2 * 20g) + 100g = 165g

So the Item Total would be 190g, and the Order's Grand Total would be 690g.

- Support in-person trading window for order delivery & payment.
- Recognizing glyphs for the enchantments needed for the items.

Thanks for confirming that.

Can you send me your saved variables file?

Also, when you got that error immediately upon logging in to a character, did you notice if "[HotepCraftingFreelancer] Loaded in order-taker mode." appeared in the chat?

Also, does the error always have the same line number (221), or is the line # always different?

First off, great work with it so far, very nice idea.

However, the following error has been the source of quite a bit of frustration:

I have never seen a lua error that didn't start with

"user:/AddOns/<addon-folder-name>/"

I'm asking my fellow addon authors.

I think that is because of a saved variables file that's too large, or that got corrupted. Or maybe you're trying to save a function? It's rather weird, because the issue is likely with ZOS' saved variable functions and not you (unless you're saving a ton to saved variables, then it's you until summerset)

user:/SavedVariables/HotepCraftingFreelancer.lua:221: function expected instead of nil
stack traceback:
user:/SavedVariables/HotepCraftingFreelancer.lua:221: in function '(main chunk)'

The result of this seems to be resetting the Saved Variables file, therefore wiping all the pricing info entered, who's a seller/mule/order-taker, orders in progress, completed orders, purchase history.

Had this happening before and after the recent update. Had it happen just a few minutes ago, I had been reloading the UI after entering each chunk of info (ingot prices, cloth prices etc). Entered a handful of material purchases I had just made, did a /reloadUI to try to make sure it saved and upon reloading I was met with that error and then that's it, poof, previous 1-2 hrs of setup just entirely erased.

Seeing this fixed up would be great.
Sidenote: Desecrated Grave Soil is missing from the Style Materials section within Purchase History.

Sounds like a bug.

Confirmed. It happened to me.
I know what the problem is. Working on it right now!

... FIXED!

Ah. Yes, Just tried it. I'll fix as soon as I can.

For now, best thing to do is a /reloadui after you enter a complete order. -- You should anyway, since all Addons' saved variables are only saved to disk when you logout or do /reloadui. Until then, the order(s) you entered are only in memory, and if your game client crashes, they're gone!

Nope. You can only be "working on" one order at a time, so if you've already "started" an order, there can be no "Submit and Start" option. That's why there's a "Put on Hold" option that only shows on the order you're currently "working on".

You CANNOT enter 2 orders at once in manual order entry. You must completely enter and save one order before beginning to enter another one.

This is by design. ... But I will have to check out why it is incrementing the order #.

For those of us that do know some of the best sets to use, the manual entry is very clean and easy to use.

Thank You So Much! I'm really glad you like it. I try to "think out of the box", as it were.

Yep. Definitely one of the first things on the to-do list that I will take care of, once I have some time (i.e. After the Jubilee Event).

Ohhhhhh, That mail. Sure, I can put that on the "nice-to-have" list.

I wanted to have plain input boxes for the prices from the start, but LibAddonMenu-2.0 doesn't provide an option for numeric-only editboxes.

I shall make a request to sirinsidiator to add the functionality.

I have actually had the notion of integrating MM & TTC for an "automated Set my Fees feature" in my head since the start.
That's another "One Day.... One Day...." thing that I will get to eventually.

Of Course!

As an example, allowing editing of the automatic second post (the one with the /tell commands) with the very prominent warning: "This addon is written to "listen" for certain specific words in order to perform automated tasks. Removing mention of these specific words WILL cause these automated tasks to NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. You have been warned. Do not cry to the author, he will only collect your tears to brew tea while laughing at you for not heeding this extensive warning." Oh, and include a "Reset to Default" button next to the dialog that reverts it back to "factory standard". That way you can tell the ones that will STILL come crying about it where to fix the problem ... after brewing some delicious tea of course. If you really wanted to, you might consider a Discord chat for just this addon, where you and other authors (like Dolgubon) could get together to work on functionality. Just an idea.
