[ADDON] RandomSayings

Post#1 » Thu Feb 25, 2021 10:32 am

RandomSayings

Version 2.0
Release Date: 3/16/21

Download Link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/vo8wzv35ae656 ... 0.zip?dl=0

Description:
Have you ever wanted to give your character a "pool" of quotations.... that you could randomly
summon from... into local chat with a button press?

Maybe you'd like to be able to hit a button and shout one of five different battle-cries? Or
maybe(like I once did in "City of Heroes") you'd like to be able to press a button and randomly
say one of 50 "Yo momma" jokes!

New with version 2.0!: Would you like to have MORE THAN ONE button, each triggering from a DIFFERENT pool of random sayings?

If so, this is the Addon for you!
Install it. Configure it with your phrases list. Create a Macro for it. Drag the Macro icon to
your hotbar...and go!

READ THE ENCLOSED README.TXT FILE for full installation and customization instructions!
(The "default sayings" are a bunch of "Karen sayings" that I whipped up for my sorc as examples.)

SPECIAL NOTE FOR THOSE UPGRADING FROM 1.0!:
Version 2.0 is NOT backward-compatible with version 1.0 sayings files! Please see the enclosed README.TXT file for instructions on how to UPGRADE from version 1.0 !!!

NOTE: Sayings are currently rigged to only go to "local chat" (\say).



DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for the grief you might get from over-spamming this. Please have some common sense, when using this. <grin!>


Thanks to all of the awesome AddOn authors out there who've made the game so much more fun for all of us !!

Great addon for roleplay purposes and I appretiate all work input in this project but keep in mind that editing "mysayings" file should not violate Terms of Use, to avoid disapointment and frustation.

Just updated with version 2.0.

This gives you the ability to have MULTIPLE macro-buttons, each "pointed to" a different "pool" of "sayings" that it will randomly \say for you!

Note that this will NOT work with any previous 1.0 sayings files. The sayings file structure has changed to support the new groups. Instructions are included in the README.TXT file for how to basically locate and remove any previously-saved-to-your-toon's-profile settings files you might have. This will allow 2.0 to install its new default file for you to edit/customize to your liking again.

Thanks!

Great Addon.

I have changed the defaultsayings.lua, but it seems the macro still got the original Karen sayings. No idea from where.

I already restarted the client, and deactivated, activated the addon. Is this a known error?

UPDATE:
Ah Bogga! Should have read the Readme to the end, there it is explained. :)
Very good Readme, by the way.

Thanks very much!
They tell me at work that I'm often too wordy / detailed in my explanations.
But in this case, I felt that might be a good thing!

Thanks again!

My top 3 fave altdorf random npc utterances are
3. bank npc "We dont bank pigs."
2. city guard "I beat a toad in a fight once. Then I ate it."
1. market trader "Find DogSh*t, and you'll find Dorfs."
