  • About Automaton
  •  

Automaton is a collection of modules which are aimed at providing players with tools to Automate frequent and tedious interface activities. Examples include: bypassing "gossip" text, automatically repairing items when at vendors, automatically accepting summons, resurrections, or battleground queues, handing in repeatable or daily quests, and more. Refer to the list below of included modules along with brief descriptions.

If you would like a graphical menu to navigate the options, you can install a mod which displays DataBroker compatible options. One example: http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/button-bin.aspx FuBar users might want to try using: http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/broker2fubar.aspx

1.3.7+ note: Some extremely rudimentary code has been added to a couple modules for creating custom lists: sell/ignore lists for the sell module, and a list of players to always send invites to for the invite module. They're clunky and particular, but I left them in because they do function on a basic level. Expect to see this functionality improved in a later version.

Hold down shift when talking to NPCs to temporarily disable Gossip to change your hearth or whatever.

Filter - Sets Filters at trainers to always default to only show "Available"

Gossip - Will bypass all kinds of NPC dialogues for you, such as repeatable quests or gossip text.

Group - Options for automatically accepting group invites.

Invite - Options for sending players invites automatically via keywords.

Loner - Declines and suppresses guild invites, for the Lone Wolves out there.

LootBOP - Suppresses the dialogue box for BOP items when you are solo. Note that you must still click on the item twice to loot it.

Plates - Displays name plates for you when entering combat, and hides them when leaving combat.

Queue - Battleground queue stuff. Enter the queue simply by clicking on the battleground, and automatically enter the BG when it becomes available.

Release - Instantly release when you die in a Battleground.

Repair - Repairs all your items any time you interact with a vendor which can do so. Can also be set to attempt to repair with Guild Bank funds first.

Rez - Automatically accepts resurrection requests you receive. The implementation is a little wonky, be sure to read the options carefully.

Sell - Sell all your trash (gray items) any time you click on a vendor. This module needs some love to be a little more flexible, but is still incredibly convenient.

Summon - Accepts summon dialogues automatically.

Wuss - Suppress and decline /duel invitations. Wuss.

    Without a doubt, one my most beloved addons. I hope to see it up and running at full speed. I really miss the ability to auto-join arena matches. :(

    Hi, having a problem with the group option. It auto declines the invite no problem but the window is still there so i have to hit one of the two buttons to get rid of it. Any chance of making it so the window goes when it declines?

    Love the features in this addon. I was just looking for a group decline mod originally but this does so many more of the things which annoy me than just that. Thanks also for the link to button bin to make configuring the addon easy.

  • When Automaton tries to guild repair, and I don't have permission, it does not default back to regular repair.

  • great addon from what i've seen. only a couple things id like to see aded. a feature to auto accept incoming shared quests, and a feature that tells you how much you just made by vendoring all the greys and other auto vendor items.

  • I cannot set my hearthstone anymore without disabling Automaton completely.
    everytime I want to speak to the NPC automatically the stuff he sells pops up. I cannot choose the option to set my hearthstone.
    How can I do this withoiut disabling Automaton?

    If you cannot set your hearthstone anymore without disabling Automaton completely, Hold down shift when talking to NPCs to temporarily disable Gossip to change your hearth.

    Hm, how do I disable (without disabling automaton completely) the auto-go-to-learn-new-abilities function? It makes respeccing a pain... And it's not like I have any new spells to learn at level 80. :-)
