Cancel Pet Fight
Prompts about canceling the current pet battle/duel if no rare pet is found on the opposing team. Useful when trying to catch only rare (blue) pets.
There are no settings. Simply start a pet battle. If there are no rare pets in the opposing team, there will be a prompt asking you to continue or cancel the fight. Simply pressing "Escape" on your keyboard, or "Cancel" in the dialogue menu will cancel the pet battle.
Unfortunately the "Cancel" function requires a hardware event and can't be automatically fired.
Commands
- /cpf chat - toggles printing the current opposing team to chat
- /cpf popup - toggles between the old mode (displaying a pop-up) or the new overlay mode (new overlay mode is by default)
- /cpf mark - toggle the raid marking option
- Shift+Clicking the Forfeit button on the PetBattle UI will immediately cancel the battle without any confirmation!
Please use Pet Theory for this.
hi there,
nice tiny addon thank you
any possibility add option "always cancel fight if no rare" and "cancel if rare is already collected"?
regards
tony
No on the 1st part, as the game needs a hardware input (a key pressed) to forfeit the pet battle, can't be done automatically, I'm afraid.
I have to think about the 2nd one, but all I could do is prompt the cancelation.
Excellent addon, I translate (french) this addon for my pleasure. If you need that translation (nothing in Project Site).
Missing (for next version?) : display the quality color to onlined?
Not sure what you mean by "onlined"?
I don't have Localization plans yet, it would add a lot of libraries and extra code and the whole code of the addon is < 30 lines right now.
Localization would make it more than 100 lines... It's not set in stone, you never known when I'm getting around to do that :)
I love this addon. But found a problem was fighing 2 pets and it poped saying no rare but when the fight ended it said the second pet was a rare.
That can't happen - are you using multiple battlepets addons?
Any screenshot/error log from it?
Just wondering if in a future release if there is anyway to depict which pet is rare. I do greatly enjoy this addon just a suggestion.
Would defeat the purpose of this addon.
If you want to see which pet is rare from the ones you're fighting, I suggest you give Pet Theory a try. They can both be used at the same time (which is what I'm using at the moment).
But I will add a small gimmick to print to chat the pets and their quality.
EDIT: Added in r10.
Does not appear to be working. Curse downloader wont install it. I tried installing manually and it does not appear in the addons list on game startup.
Thanks for letting me now. I had made a mess with the release file (known as .pkgmeta). Should work properly now to install and use with the Curse Client.
Works as advertised now. r5 didnt work, but r7 does.
I heven't tried it yet (servers are still down) but I just have a question. Does it actually cancel the petbattle not just a forfeit? I'm asking since that's exactly what I'm looking for. I sometimes (or most times) make a mistake and my pet team would be too high a level to battle the pet that I'm trying to capture and kill it unintentionally. Would be nice to cancel the battle and do it over with a new team.
Unfortunately the only option is to forfeit. Maybe I should have chosen a better name for it.
All it does is when you initiate a pet battle and the other team has no rare pets in it, will prompt you to cancel (forfeit) or keep fighting. Pressing the Escape key will forfeit the battle.
