FOB - Companion Helper Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.12.1

by: FlatBadger [More]

FOB is a companion mod to prevent accidental companion interaction.

Ever clicked to loot something only to find your companion conversation starting because they have leapt in front of you to grab all your attention? Annoying isn't it? (Well, I find it annoying).

Prevents any companion interactions from happening
Toggle the original functionality or toggle your companion using keybindings
Ignore flying insects when Mirri is out, or only allow ones that don't decrease rapport
Prevent criminal interactions when Bastian or Isobel is out
When you move the reticle over a companion, nothing will happen. Click the action button over a companion, nothing will happen. Bliss.
Stop losing Rapport with Bastian when you craft something with cheese in it. FOB will warn you and cancel the crafting of that item. Works with DailyProvisioning too.
Alternate summoning message frame
Prevent entry to Outlaw's Refuges when Isobel is out
Prevent fishing when Ember is out
Prevent mushroom gather or recipes with coffee for Azander
Block outfit stations and warn of low gear durability for Sharp as Night

Now, if I could only get them to shut up too...

Compatible with DailyProvisioning and RuEso (as of V2.3.0)

Slash Commands
/fob - open FOB's settings page

Attention: But I guess the show companion menu does not work properly if you do not really interact with the companion!** It will show the scene etc. but everything you do will not have any effect afai was told by ZOs DanBatson! You really need to interact with the companion manually via the default use keybind... Else the shown things are only visual but chnging skills, changing equiment and inventory does nothing as the interaction never "officially" started. Did you try this? Does it really work? ZOs told us there is no workaround so your scenegroup showing should also be just "visual". btw: This is not needed as your addon's EVENT_ADD_ON_LOADED will fire after LibDebugLogger was loaded, due to your ## OptionalDependsOn: entry in your manifest txt Code: if (addonName == "LibDebugLogger") then zo_callLater( function() FOB.Logger = _G.LibDebugLogger(FOB.Name) end, 2000 ) end You can just move this after your code Code: if (addonName ~= FOB.Name) then return end via e.g. Lua Code: if LibDebugLogger ~= nil then FOB.Logger = LibDebugLogger(FOB.Name) end And the explicitly call to _G is neither needed, but maybe on purpose for an easier global variable find? And one idea for an imporvement if there might be added more companions to the game: Add the companion names to a table with key = name and value = boolean true, and check the table then within your reticle checks: Lua Code: local BASTIAN = GetCollectibleInfo(...) local MIRRI = GetCollectibleInfo(...) local companionNames = { [BASTIAN] = true, [MIRRI] = true, } --In your reticel hook function ... local isCompanionAction = companionNames[interactableName] or false --the "or false" will be taken into account if there is no "interactableName" entry in the table "companionNames" -> so the return value would be nil -> changed to false if not isCompanionAction then return false end -- companion detected - we don't want to talk to you, cancel the interaction local interactionType = GetInteractionType() EndInteraction(interactionType) return true Last edited by Baertram : 01/14/22 at 12:03 PM.

I couldn't possibly comment on what FOB stands for To be honest, I didn't actually try the interacting with the .. er .. interaction, so my bad there - I just made quite a big assumption. I may just add an option to reenable the default behaviour temporarily. The _G is purely for checking globals as you say - I use luacheck to help me out.

Actually both myself and a friend have just tried this and it appears to work just fine.

Interesting.
In the past (PTS as companions were introduced) I've tested about the same and the whole companion inventory and skills show up but nohing could be chnaged. It always threw error messages that the companion is not interacted with and nothing dragged & dropped, equipped, skills etc. was updated properly.

ZosDanBatson told me this is normal as you manually need to run to the companion and talk (chatter) + initiate the interaction via that chatter menu as else the server internal interaction is not registered.

If this is working without the actual interaction now they changed the server code, nice.

Odd - works fine for me.

I'll change the way I get the companion names for the next release, see if that helps.

What language client are you using out of interest?

Yes, there aren't any notifications

Only for forum threads and posts will notify you, but not for addon comments.
You need to check via menu -> Author -> My Addons list if there are new comments

Edit:
Please do not include the .git folders etc. files in the addon zip! thanks Only addon related files should be included

And the German texts do not show for the keybindings?
You need to use $(language) in your txt not ${language}
