[Request] Addon that allows the player to use the same weapon for both actionbars

I was always annoyed by the fact that in this game, you have to have two different weapons in order to utilize both actionbars. So, if you plan on using the same weapon for both actionbars, you have to make two of that weapon every time you make a new one. My idea for the addon is to have it switch your weapon into the other weapon slot when you press the weapon swap key. That way, it allows you to retain the same weapon when switching actionbars. I'm fairly certain that this is do-able, but if it's not, feel free to tell me. I don't like to be left hanging.

As that would be manipulating combat-related activities during combat, i'm going to say it probably won't be doable as its an open avenue for potential automation. The API won't even let you mount your horse via AddOns due to a lockdown, so combat related stuff will certainly be locked sorry.

That's pretty stupid.

The game is designed so that you only have the 5 actions. This is part of the decision making in the game. Deck building, if you will. You cannot bypass this. However - you may be able to work your way around it by having two of the same weapon, I'm not sure.

There's a loading tip suggesting using the same weapon as both primary and secondary if you want to just swap skills, so that's definitely intended.

The same type of weapon, not the same weapon. You still need e.g. two Inferno staffs, or four daggers etc.
