I get the weirdest bug with this mod. When I enable it, it disables another mod called VChat, which acts as a chat frame extender. Odd stuff. Wish it didn't do it.
And the Auto loot BoP function doesn't work either (will just stay in loot position and do nothing, no error msgs).
Fixed this issue -- sorta. Turns out, unsurprisingly, binding confirmation requires a hardware event. So while you won't be able to auto loot an entire corpse that has BOP items on it with this feature, it will suppress the confirmation window when you do click on the item.
Might I add would be great... if you could add support for the Shaman ghost wolf for auto unshapeshift. I installed this mod thinking that it was already in there! Thanks
Fixed.
I've also bumped it to 1.2.1 and added modules to auto accept summons, and to automatically loot BOP items when you're not in a raid/party. However, I haven't had a chance to test either of these modules so let me know if they fail horribly.
Could you please add auto accepting of ready checks? Reslack does this, but does not have the additional functionality that yours does.
Please don't. Having a mod auto-accept ready checks completely defeats the purpose of ready checks. A ready check is to verify that you're present and paying attention. If you are, it's not hard to click the "Yes" button. If your raid leader is spamming ready checks, that's something you should take up with him/her.
I'm wondering if you could add settings for Group Loot rolls, like, auto roll need, or auto roll pass. Trying to setup an addon to do it automatically when I dual log instances, if you can't I'll just do it myself I guess, doesn't look too hard ^^

As a guild leader in a raiding guild, I'm going to have to agree with Phanx. I'm certainly not going to add this.

I'm not quite sure I understand what you would want this to do. I know pickup groups often pass on bop and need/greed everything else, but from my experience it can vary widely as to which is appropriate. I foresee something that tries to guess which to choose ending up mostly just annoying the user.
Well in some guilds at least, people leave Group Loot in instances on trash, so they don't miss rare drops, yet have the trash loot split evenly(and no rogues going out with +25g even after wiping because they looted all the silithid carapace stuff ^^). From what I understand, if you're not an officer, you install an addon(there's one out that's not aced, might not even be updated for 2.0 it's pretty old), that autopass on everything, you turn it on before raids and just leave it like that the whole run. Was wondering if you could add that, but as I said, it doesn't look terribly hard so I guess I'll just try to add it myself.
Other than that, great job on the addon, love it it combines a few stuff I was using before without being too intrusive.
Not including it because you don't agree with it's usage doesn't prevent usage of autoready addons at all. If someone wants that functionality they'll get it from another addon if you don't provide it. As someone previously mentioned, there isn't currently a nice small addon that does all of: auto accept invite, auto res, auto summon, auto ready. There are several that do all but one.
You could even argue auto res and auto accept invite can also support afk'ers during raids.
Auto ready is a feature that can be used responsibly too, it doesn't necessarily have to hurt raids.
Regardless of arguing it's proper usage, its an automation feature that many people want and can either be included in an all-in-one automation addon like this, or people's addons will be a bit messier with an additional addon for just that or one that covered duplicate functionality too.

*cough*
I believe that's the idea. Last I checked, this is wobble's addon so he has the final say on its features.
Obviously any decision is the author's. I'm just saying that it's a feature that obviously people would like, it fits this addon perfectlty, and the reasoning provided for not including it is flawed.

I hardly see how auto-accepting invites from friends and guildmates supports AFKers during raids. You only get invited once - at the beginning of the raid. Even if you're invited after the raid has already started, you still have to actively travel to the raid instance and get inside - an activity which is rather difficult to do while AFK.
Same with auto-accepting resurrections and summons. Those activities all take place out of combat. A wipe is a popular time to run to the bathroom or grab a drink, so being able to accept a resurrection while you're off doing these things actually saves the raid time, because you can get back quicker, because you don't have to wait to be resurrected to go do your thing. Summons ususally happen during downtime, too.
A ready check is a while different story. When your raid leader does a ready check, it's because the raid is about to start something you need to be paying attention to help with NOW. Not everyone needs to be alert when someone is resurrected or summoned, but everyone does need to be alert for a ready check - that's what ready checks are for. I don't think there's a single raid leader anywhere who approves of addons that accept ready checks for you. And honestly, if clicking a single button a few times a raid is so unreasonably demanding for you, you probably shouldn't be raiding to begin with.

As I said I am a guild leader of a raiding guild and I know for a fact I would hate my members using it. The point of a ready check is to make sure everyone in the raid is paying attention and ready to begin a fight, receive instructions, move -- whatever. Not requiring user interaction defeats the purpose -- there's no way to be sure they really are in fact ready.
However, I'm not completely unreasonable. If someone else wants to write a module to do it and put it on the svn, I'm absolutely fine with that. In fact, if it's written well and refuses to accept ready checks if the player is marked AFK I might even be willing to put it in the "official" release (although no promises).
If confirming a ready check does not require a hardware event though, I'm probably going to suggest that it be changed to.
Modify this into AutoDismount and you'll dismount when doing an action even if you get the out of range message (Which previously has prevented dismounting 'cause then you wont get the "You're mounted" message)
Yeh that'd be perfect (if auto ready didn't accept when the player was afk).
Making auto ready off by default would also be good.
Again, I realise you may not personally want it, but I'm glad you see the logic for it existing.
Each guild/raid is run differently, the fact it doesn't suit some people doesn't mean it isn't useful for others.
For example, my guild uses ready checks very often to make sure people are awake etc. They may do 1-5 before a boss pull even depending on what's going on. We raid about 4-7 hours each night of the week.
Autoready saves me more clicks than any other automation during a regular night.
Also due to long raids I'm not always watching the screen or like to get out of my chair and stretch while I wait for people to get ready. Stopping whatever to click yes every few seconds is really annoying, and I don't want to slow the raid at all. The ready check sound warning is all I need to know to be ready any second.
I think it's a bit too off topic discussing whether autoready should be allowed, as a ui restriction it is up to bliz essentially. And seriously, if you have someone in your raid going afk and causing problems, the leader should tell them they're slowing the raid and they'll be replaced in the raid if they keep it up.
I attached a basic autoready module. It'll only auto accept ready checks while not afk and if you're afk it'll play a quest failed sound and say you missed it (it won't automatically decline the ready check if you're afk).
If your raid leaders are using it 5 times in a row I'd consider that an issue with misuse of the ready check functionality causing you to need this automated. But that's all opinion and circumstances as we've been over, which I think we've covered this well enough. You probably don't have control over how often they use it so I can see why you would want this.
Uploaded a couple updates which add a delay option to AutoGroup and AutoRez. Some changes to AutoSummon, which I've still not tested at all -- someone let me know if there's anything screwy with that module. Also added in the dismount changes listed above to work when spells are out of range, which I can't actually decide if I like or not. That may turn into something you can toggle on or off at some point.

Awsome! You are the man!
