WorkWork
When you open the architect table in your garrison WorkWork will go through all the buildings and assign the follower which the game puts on top of the list. This can take 1-3 seconds, because the game won't let you assign too many followers at once. Once it's done it will tell you it 'Smacked all the peons', disable itself and only assign workers again when you reopen the architect table.
Addon has 3 states:
- WorkWork: Upon opening the table assign followers to all buildings (where possible), displays a message when it's done
- zZzZzZ: Return workers from buildings
- Nothing: Do not change anything about buildings/followers
- In automatic mode the addon will switch between WorkWork and zZzZzZ modes every time you open the architect table!
You can cycle those states by either clicking the LDB icon or with the slashcommand /workwork ( or /ww works too)
- Cycle modes: /ww, /workwork or leftclick the icon
- Toggle Barracks ignore: /ww skiprax or rightclick the icon
- Toggle Herb Garden ignore: /ww skipherb or shift-rightclick the icon
- Toggle Chatframe ouput: /ww stfu or shift leftclick the icon
- Automatic Mode: /ww auto or middleclick the icon
- Minimap Icon: /ww hide, /ww show
Hi, is it possible to show the icon of the follower instead of the icon of the building?
The addon only works partly, it will take out followers from work, but it cant put em in work in latest patch. I hope it will be fixed soon as this small addon is great.
Having same problem
Sorry for the late reply/fix! :(
It looks like debugging codes were left on, every time I open the architect's table I see a string of "nil" and numbers.
Thanks for the great updates, this is a really useful addon.
is it gone now?
Sorry didn't catch you comment earlier :(
Change request: Have an option to make the addon more verbose in which follower gets assigned to which building.
eg. "Fiona assigned to Herb Garden" or "Shelly Hamby assigned to Leatherworker" as a chat output.
Or if it requires too much change in the addon itself, even just which buildings are fine. eg. "Leatherworker, Herb Garden, Mine, Lumber Mill now has peons assigned."
Will look into that, makes sense for people who do not use a LDB display
Also requesting an "option" for this... so that way I can disable/enable. :)
1.9.3 should have it in the tooltip when hovering the icon, I uploaded a screenshot, I'll implement a chatmessage too :)
Minimap button doesn't stay hidden between relogs or /reloads
Messed up some variable, thanks
Just noticed that there are a couple problems with the minimap button:
1) It doesn't show up until the first time I click the architect table, so I don't know what action I'm taking until after I've done it.
2) When I click the minimap button it thinks it's toggling the actions but it's not working. It outputs the change to the chat frame and the button updates but nothing happens with building assignments. The one on the full map works properly though.
Update: Seems to be related to turning off "auto". I logged into another char and the mm button was working, but auto was on. I turned it off and now it's doing the same thing when clicked (appears to toggle but no changes are made to assignments).
Ah yea, should have done the button handling different, changed it so they both the same stuff all the time. Thanks!
It took a bit of experimenting to find how to turn off the herb garden ignore, please update the commands above with /ww skipherb to toggle it. Since right clicking the minimap icon toggles the barracks ignore, how about shift-right click to toggle the herb garden ignore?
Would be nice to have an addon options panel where you could toggle the barracks and herb garden ignore.
Since the switch to per character settings the option to hide the minimap icon isn't saved any more.

Oh, so he has to stay in there, ok :)
Hello,
great addon so far. A option to ignore the herb garden would be nice. When you pick up the herbs to plant a follower must be assigned to the building when the herbs spawn. 3:00am afaik.
regards, Sha
It doesn't work on more than one sub account. Works on the first one I logged into, but not the others.
Update:
I got it to work on a different sub account, seems like if you have Auctioneer and it's components enabled on one account, and log into another sub accound that doesn't have Auctioneer enabled, WorkWork appears to be missing. I even tried the /ww
Not sure what the conflict is, I'll see if I can figure it out,or if I fall asleep first.
Good addon, in any case.
If you have Auctioneer installed, you need to have the Sidebar module enabled, otherwise the WorkWork does not load.
