Feature: Click Name on Target Window to initiate trade.

Post by EqMule » Mon Dec 29, 2014 12:18 pm

Hi guys I'm thinking of adding a new feature to MQ2
If added it will allow you to just click the name of your target on the target window to open a trade with them if you have an item on your cursor.

In crowded places like guildhall or on raids its much faster than having to type /click left target.

Its probably great for doing handin tasks as well and so on...

The way it will work:
1. You have an item on the cursor.
2. You target someone.
3. You click their name on the targetwindow.
4. Tradewindow will open.

Anyway there will be some development time going into this so im polling for interest to see if I should spend time on this or something else.

I assume you would still need to be in trade range, but sounds awesome when in a crowded area like a raid or GL. Put me down for $20.

The macro I normally run has a "hand in" function so ...

I am curious how you would go about detecting a user clicked on the target window. I've seen examples of loading your own window and getting the window call backs. Spent quite a while playing around with those when working on a custom window for MQ2AdvPath.

Yeah it's mainly a feature for when you are playing the char yourself, in a macro you can just tell the macro to do it or whatever...

I'm usually playing the main char and letting my crew follow around on their own macros, even when I raid it's like that, so I'm uhm usually the "driver" and multiple times I find myself having to type /click left target or put it on a hotkey and stuff

Anyway I was planning to keep it real simple and just use a detour to check window click for focus or something not sure yet, right now it's just on the drawing board.
