Hotep® Crafting Freelancer

Version: 2.02

by: tomtomhotep [More]

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.

Not for quite some time, I'm afraid. It's a huge undertaking to add a new "profession".

I really wish I had a lot more time for addon development. It's fun.

It was almost going to be a max of 6, since you can only put 6 attachments in one COD email. Then I added code to split the COD amount in half if there's 7-12 items in the order, and send in two COD emails. But it's all hardcoded to handling 1 or 2 emails. It would be quite some work to add a third condition for 13-18 items.

Akopian Atrebates Forum posts: 3 File comments: 128 Uploads: 0	Back in the old days of Dark Ages of Camelot before they had vendors, taking orders like this was the only way I did business. Would have been very nice to have had something like this instead of my complicated spreadsheets and whatnot! I was able to fund my entire crafting development with money from actual sales. Now powering up the crafting stats or anything. All orders. I have not even tried to do that in this game, and as a result, I have made zero sets for anybody but an actual family member. I am going to give this a serious try.

The number of questions you have to ask all the info you have to obtain can be painfully time consuming. But this addon looks very interesting to me and I'm looking forward to trying it out!

I've had many people order from me using the chat interface. Most of them flied through it after the first couple items.

But there's nothing to stop you from accepting mail-in orders, and entering them yourself in the "Enter New Order" window.

Open the main window with first keybind. First tab "Waiting Orders" -> you see list of orders waiting to be filled.
Click on an order -> shows you "Order Details Window". Click "Start Work".

After that you can use the second keybind to open the order details window for the order you are currently working on.

I've had that idea since before I released the initial version of this. I'd love to, but he has no options for adding enchants. And this addon supports ordering enchanted items.

Dekthro Forum posts: 2 File comments: 2 Uploads: 0	So I got everything set up, and gave it a test run on my girlfriends account as the buyer. I completed the order process for one item and it sent her the receipt via mail. Though I'm not seeing how on my end to view the order so that I can fulfill it. Regarding the ordering process, though, I don't think I'd be able to use this addon. I understand ZOS removed the ability to automatically send messages, but next to that the process for adding a single item is quite arduous. I couldn't imagine being someone trying to place an order for a complete set. If I were, I'd probably get really frustrated and quit the process, or try to circumvent it completely. I think if clientele were to be willing to do this process, it would have to be some sort of order form people can fill out in a mail. Edit: Just a random thought, maybe some sort of intergration with TinyDog's Crafting Calculator? You can create a craft list in that, "save to clipboard" which gives a simple format. And from there import it into Hotep? Example of its clipboard export: Code: Level CP160 Heavy Cuirass, Sturdy, Gold quality, Adept Rider set Level CP160 Heavy Sabatons, Sturdy, Gold quality, Adept Rider set Level CP160 Heavy Gauntlets, Sturdy, Gold quality, Adept Rider set Level CP160 Heavy Helm, Sturdy, Gold quality, Adept Rider set Level CP160 Heavy Greaves, Sturdy, Gold quality, Adept Rider set Level CP160 Heavy Pauldrons, Sturdy, Gold quality, Adept Rider set Level CP160 Heavy Girdle, Sturdy, Gold quality, Adept Rider set Last edited by Dekthro : 05/12/19 at 12:45 PM.

BTW, I'm working on this now. I'm trying to squeeze in at least 2 hrs a day to work on it.

No ETA yet, but I'm almost done modifying the Addon Settings Panel for the new auto-pricing options.

Then comes the fun part... Writing the functions that actually set the prices!

HeHeh, yeah. It is a lot to take in. Unfortunately, I'm really bad at making User Guides.

I could create an FAQ, if people would like to send me Q's.

... Also, just about everything has a tooltip, so make sure to hover over everything.

That's exactly the next thing on my list to add!

I've just been so busy lately with all those Events, plus some IRL stuff, and working on another addon that I desperately need and can't find anything suitable already written.

Awesome! I'm definitely keen to see that!

I have, but (as programs can't understand spoken language), the customers would have to specially format the mail body so the addon can parse it. With field delimiters and record terminators, similar to an ANSI x12 format file:

Code:

heavy#head#sturdy#Epic#Militant Ordinator#Kagrenac's Hope#Health$
1h#sword#nirnhoned#Legendary#Xivkyn#Kagrenac's Hope#Absorb Magicka$

With all the fields in the correct order and no misspellings.

However, since the beginning, I've been planning to write a companion addon that frequent customers can use to create an order (using the same interface as the "Enter New Order" feature) and send it in exactly this way to a crafter using this addon. My intention is to see how popular this addon becomes before writing the ordering companion.

Re: Few issues/bugs.

Thanks for the bug reports. I'll take care of them as soon as I can.

I don't think so. From the screenshot, it looks like the addon was waiting for a customer to send mats for an order, and the addon got confused by a Hireling mail.

... or is Nelysia a customer that was sending you mats?
