About MountRandomMount

IF YOU WANT TO LEAVE COMMENT PLEASE VISIT: http:www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info13679-MountRandomMount.html#comments I DO NOT CHECK CURSE AS MUCH AS WOWINTERFACE.

I wanted a simple mod to randomly cast a mount from a list I defined. Using Land in nonflyable areas and flying in flyable areas.

Have added localization ability, tenatively/hopefully. If you would like to localize this, please look at localization.enUS.lua and send me a comment stating you would like to.

Have added the ability for druids/shamans to use their travel/GW/flight forms. It's bound to a 3rd key binding. Can not be part of the randomness due to the fact it is a spell and must have a secure button to cast. Well it could be just not simplified. For druids, will attempt to cast swift flight than flight form in flyable area's, if you have neither it than will attempt to cast travel form. If your not in a flyable area it will attempt to cast travel form. Ok to be able to cast, the binding is transfered from the trigger you set in Key Bindings menu, to the secure button for casting. So each time you log in you will have to hit this key binding twice, but for the rest of the session will act like a regular keybinding. I have found no way around this at this time. This only affects travel forms keybinding.

Comments Suggestions always are welcomed.

use /rdm: RountRandomMount version use: /rdm -prints this help

/rdm add [mount name] (can also shift click from your mount list) - adds another mount to the random list

/rdm remove [mount name] (can also shift click from your mount list) -removes a mount from the list

/rdm list - lists the mounts to select from

/rdm gui - brings up a GUI of your mounts

/rdm reseed - if you use more than one computer and you learn a new mount, your list will not work on the other computer, use this to reseed correct mount ID's

/rdm catform - if you are a druid will use catform in instances/inside.

/rdm random - mounts a random mount from your list (using flying in flyable areas and land in nonflyable areas)

There is a keybinding option in the Blizzard KeyBindings Menu. Add a shortcut here to call /rdm random

If you have any bugs, questions, comments, suggestions, please leave me a comment.

I did run into a mount that doesn't have the same name in the tooltip as in the WoW API call. Bronze Drake from CoS timed, doesn't have the word mount in the tooltip, but in the API call comes back Bronze Drake Mount. If you get an error saying mount doesn't exist, please let me know. Also if you ahve the HHM, will you let me know if it works with this?

v4.3a Added more mounts for 4.3 patch.

v4.2a Added dismount to land mount only keybind Added patch 4.3/TCG Mounts to the List. Please report if any missing.

v4.1c Added new mounts from patch 4.2 (if nothing changes) and the new mount from Blizz store.

v4.1a/b Added new mounts from patch 4.1. Updated ToC.

v4.0.3l Added translation for RU/FR/DE for the 3 area's that can use the Seahorse mount. Still need zhTW translation from someone (wowhead doesn't have a zh. or tw. that I could find to get the right translations.

v4.0.3k Fixed worgen (i think anyways). Fixed Seahorse for other clients once I get translations.

v4.0.3j/1 Added Worgen Ability to go with the other racial abilites (druid/shaman).

v4.0.3i/1 Fixed Seahorse/Vash issues.

v4.0.3h/1 Fixed adding removing mounts with the command line.

v4.0.3g Fixed random code, added seahorse mount for Vash in cata, fixed better swim mount detection.

v4.0.3f Added Cata mounts since some were introduced in 4.0.3a

v4.0.3e Better detection if able to fly or not.

v4.0.3b/c/d Fixed for 4.0.3a

v4.0.1g/h/alphatest/i I failed, bunch of errors, h should fix.

v4.0.1f Changed GUI. Allowed combo mounts (celes/HHM/etc.) to be in either or list or both. Added lomoko's Russian translation fixes.

v4.0.1e Changed how mounts are determined for flying/land as the coming changes in Cata. It now keeps a global list of all mounts and what they can do (land/flying/both/swimming).

v4.0.1d Added ability to summon flying mount when swimming but at the surface. This does not work with the Druid Flight ability as it seems they still check for swimming with druid Flight Form. Added French Translation, Thanks to WoWInterface User Tomate. Added being able to exit vehicle with same button to dismount. Thanks to Gandoch.

v4.0.1b Fixed removing mounts from both lists when land/flying mount. Fixes to update for 4.0.1 patch. added Female Shaman for Ru, if German or another client needs this please let me know. Fixed the error printing where it didn't need to. Added German Translation thanks to Brenainn. More German Translation by mad-d and Russian Translation by lomoko. More German Translation by mad-d and Russian Translation by lomoko. Added error checking when using command line to add mount. Added german translation for wintergrasp.

v3.0.2/3/4 Added X53-Touring Rocket. Added Aufenthaltsort for german translation (location) for celestial steed and if in german client they start adding this for mounts that can be used everywhere (unfortunately, english has location for HHM/Celestial steed, but german didn't until Celestial Steed). X-53 should work across all clients, as X-53 is not a word.

v3.0.1 Added German Translation for specific keywords, thanks to: Brenainn

v3.0 Added Sea Turtle cast if swimming to random mount, otherwise a land mount is cast. Added Acquatic form if swimming and druid.

v2.9 Updated ToC for 3.3

v2.8 IsFlyableArea Does not work during Combat in WG, added code to correct this.

v2.7 IsFlyableArea() was updated to work correctly. Was able to simply code using this.

v2.6b Minor fixes to color code.

    Addtions to Addon

    Hello,

    Is it possible for you to add companions to this addon?  Or even a CompanionRandomCompanion addon?

    I would love to see support for them as well.

    Thanks.

    For a while now I have been seeing very irritating behavior of this addon. For some reason most of the times I use /rdm random first mount to be called for is mechano-hog - even though it is not chosen on the list. And even though flying mount would be usable. After I cancel calling for mount, try again, or yet again, I will eventually get flying mount.

    Tried reseeding mounts, but (of course) it didn't help. Anything else you could advice me to try?

    Using version 4.1c

    Having the same problems...
    Addon calls a landmount in flying areas and these mounts aren't selected in the list.
  • #22

    For me this is caused whenever I have had a low level alt (higher than 20 to get a mount) and then replaced him with a new char, named the same as the previous alt, then leveled the new char up. So I guess the addon somehow tries to recall the slow ground mount used by the char previously but since it can't, it picks up one of the mounts the same named character now has. Repaired it with deleting the two RDM addon files in the following folder: ...WoW/WTF/Account/ACCOUNT_NAME/REALM/CHARACTER. Hope this helped.

    @CainFortea/Frogman1975: This ability is already built in through keybindings. If you scroll down in KeyBindings menu after the main menu in WoW to MountRandomMount. 1st keybinding is for auto detecting random mount. 2nd Keybinding is to summon a land mount no matter where you are. 3rd is for druids/shamans/worgen shapeshifting abilities.

    So use 1st if you want flying, and 2nd if you want land in a flying area.


    @escalprillo: Since running wild is a Spell and not a "mount" per say. YOu can't use it like your other mounts. You have to set up the 3rd keybinding as mentioned briefly above. Set a key to the 3rd keybinding (for druids/shamans/worgens). Now the first time you log in you need to hit it twice to cast, each time after only once to cast. However, each relog you need to hit twice. There is a reason for this. Without getting into all of it. Basically blizz protects casting, so you need to create a protected button, but instead of showing a button to manually click, the first time you log in and hit the key binding, it transfers that key binding to the hidden button. So each time after you hit your key binding, you'll cast Running Wild.

    Please let me knwo if that doesn't work.

    Again sorry about taking so long to post here, i never check curse, as mentioned in description, please post to wowinterface as i'm on IRC/Wowinterface.com all day long usually.

    running wild is not working =(
    i have the lastest update and tried adding it manually /rdm add [mount name]
    and it says that running wild is not on my mount list =/
  • #17
    Come here to post the same thing Frogman said. Sometimes I wanna just get on a land mount, and that's really why I got this adon. There's so many land mounts vs flying mounts that I can't just /castrandom anymore. :D
  • #16
    Any chance of ever adding a separate command that allows the user to choose between a random land mount or a random flying mount in areas where flying is available? There are times (in cities for instance) when you can technically summon a flying mount, but might prefer a land mount. It'd be neat to have the option to set up macros for /rdm flying and /rdm land, or something of the sort, to have both options available at any time instead of auto-detecting what is allowed (especially with Cata opening up everything to flying)
  • #23

    Theres an  option in the KeyBindings Menu to set a key for land mounts

  • #15
    OK, version 4.0.3k should have running Wild working. Um why would I want a sea turtle for land mount. If you have it it will auto use while swimming below the surface.
  • #14
    Sea Turtle is not recognized as a mount by this mount, any way to easily add it?
  • #13
    Do you have any plans for adding Worgen form "running Wild" ?
  • #12
    Don't use version f, sorry about the errors all.
  • #11
    OK changed GUI, allowed combo mounts (hhm/x-53/celest) to be in either list or both. Let me know any comments.

    At this time I haven't allowed the turtle to be added to land mount list, or done anything with swimming. Not sure I will.

    Shaman casting GW inside does work. Confirmed.

    Hope y'all are ok with the changes. Sitting at 122 mounts in my lists, i'm still under 210kb memory used. So this mod should still be lightweight and quick.

    Hi, if you are a Shaman you can use this macro to use Ghostwolf indoors.
    /spell [indoors] Ghost Wolf
    /stopmacro [indoors]
    /rdm random
    this "Tweek" may also work whith Druid Forms.
