Innocent Blade of Woe (and Vampire Feed) Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.24

by: dorrino [More]

Version 1.2. Major revision. (thanks Coolio_Wolfus for the feedback!) Now if you have "Prevent Attacking Innocents" on and still managed to get in a fight with one, you will be able to fight back without manually turning "Prevent Attacking Innocents" off.

In order to be able to hit an innocent while having "Prevent Attacking Innocents" on you'll need:

1. You both need to be in combat.
2. You can not be crouching.
3. You need to directly target him with your reticle.

Please report any problems.

Description

A very simple addon that turns off "Prevent Attacking Innocents" if you have "Blade of Woe" or "Vampire Feed" synergy popup on your screen and turns if back on otherwise.

If you have "Prevent Attacking Innocents" manually turned off the addon has no effect.

The options to disable addon separately for "Blade of Wow" and "Vampire Feed" are provided. If both are off - the addon is disabled.

The reason why i created this addon was that i prefer to play with "Prevent Attacking Innocents" on to avoid randomly hitting something in the middle of a city and turning it on and off just for Blade of Woe (or using a keybind) felt like too much hustle.

Enjoy!

Notes:

The addon allows to attack innocents using ANY kind of ability, not just Blade of Woe/Vampire Feed, while the popup is on the screen.
Vampire Feed has been added, but NOT tested. Please report any problems with it.

If you like this addon, please check out my other addons Zone Name Alert and Poison Tracker. Thank you!

1.24 - added compatibility fix for Lui

1.23 - api bump for Morrowind patch

1.21 - API bump and LibAddonMenu update.

1.2
Major revision. Added retaliation against innocents:)

1.11
Slight rewrite of the code. Using synergy event instead of prehook to avoid any possible conflicts.

1.1
Added Vampire Feed. Reworked options.

1.01
Now this addon will work with ESO clients in any language.

ZoLatKam Forum posts: 3 File comments: 145 Uploads: 0	Mod not working since most recent maintenance Ever since the maintenance on Monday, 01.08.18, this mod no longer functions correctly for me. It does not temporarily disable the "Prevent Attacking Innocents" option when I go to use the Blade of Woe. I get no LUA error; it simply doesn't work. I have tried uninstalling, deleting the saved variables & reinstalling twice now with no change. Any suggestions anyone can provide would be appreciated.

dorrino Forum posts: 50 File comments: 203 Uploads: 10	Finally tested the addon. It works for me. 1. I have 'prevent attacking innocents' on. 2. Crouched behind an innocent. 3. Successfully used blade of woe. 4. Prevent attacking innocents correctly got turned off and immediately on after the kill. Please report specific problems with the addon.

Let's go into details.

You have the addon, 'prevent' option is on (can't attack innocents), you sneak behind an innocent, you see 'use blade of woe' pop up, you press the synergy button - you get the message that 'can't attack an innocent'.

Correct?

Found problem. It's Lui extened caused issue.
Lui changed blade of woe synery file to something different. I changed function like below, and now it's working fine.

Code:

function IBOW:IsValidSynergy(synergyFile)
	return 	(((synergyFile:find("_darkbrotherhood_003") or (synergyFile:find("_darkbrotherhood_blade_of_woe"))) and IBOW.savedVariables.useBladeOfWoe) or 
			(synergyFile:find("ability_vampire_002") and IBOW.savedVariables.useVampireFeed))
end

They prehooked the function that returns synergy filenames and changed the names according to their needs?

Quality coding.

Thank you for figuring this out

ZoLatKam Forum posts: 3 File comments: 145 Uploads: 0	Update? Fantastic that Cool7 found a fix! I can confirm that changing the code, provided by Cool7, in the InnocentBladeOfWoe.lua file (lines 78 - 81 for me) does restore the expected functionality of the mod. Now, when can those users of the mod that *aren't comfortable with directly editing .lua code* expect an update?

As Cool7 found out, this is a problem with Lui specifically. Please ask them to fix their code.

Changes icon files only - I didn't really anticipate comparison by icon but when I added this I also forgot theres no id's for synergies. Doh.
The idea is to have support to add unique icons for Synergy abilities (and I changed Blade of Woe because it always bothered me that the icon didn't match up with passive icon).
I don't suppose I could convince you to compare using name instead with GetAbilityName(78219) for Blade of WoE and GetAbilityName(33152) for Feed? Or if you wouldn't mind just plugging in the additional icon conditional?

If not I'll figure something out to fix it.

It's not dorrino's responsibility to fix this. If he wants to make a small change for me that would be great but its my issue to resolve ultimately. I'm sorry this caused an issue for you guys using both addons. Was my oversight and heavyhandedness with what I'm doing in LUI.

Yep, no ids, so it's either the filename or the name via GetAbilityName. Both are contingent on ZOS not messing with either, so technically there shouldn't be a problem to change my code to add the comparison by ability names.

I've updated the addon, but you should think about a workaround, just in case. Somebody else might rely on filenames as a quite unique identifier here.

I tested only Blade of Woe and only in english client. Knowing zos some ability names might be different from the synergy name for whatever reason. Filename is more reliable.

ps. Sorry for being a bit harsh on you with my remark there, but errors like this are almost impossible to detect on my end. People reported the addon didn't work for them, while it worked perfectly for me
