World Quest Assistant
WQA helps you find world quest groups quickly and easily.
With just a couple of clicks, you can easily find and join a group, or create your own. When you are in proximity of a world quest, WQA will offer to find or create a group for you. One click of the button finds all open groups and another click will start applying to join them. Or, you can create your own group with a single click.
Key features:
- One-click support to find a group, create a new group, or join existing groups
- Keybinding support for full automation - just set the bind and then tap it to find or apply to groups, accept a group invite, create a new group, or leave a group after quest completion.
- Allows you to create a new group on demand - no waiting for group finder timeouts. Open up your quest to others without having to wait for a server jump.
- Allows you to prefer to connect to groups on your home realm, completely avoiding server jumps.
- Can leave groups automatically after a configurable delay on quest completion, or stay in the group with a keybind you set.
- Can find groups for quests by middle-clicking their icons on the map. Handy when you're sitting around waiting for that mob to spawn! Works with both the base UI and World Quest Tracker.

Posted May 13, 2017Hi Antiarc,
I already know that there are 3 keybinding options available, but if I wanted to macro Automation Keybind, Cancel group leave, and Create a new group, how would I format these? (i.e. /click [button]).
I apologize if it's a silly question... Thank you in advance!

Posted May 13, 2017if you type /fstack and mouse over the icons you should see what they are each called, then you can make a /click buttonnamegoeshere macro.

Posted May 13, 2017Those are all exposed via:
/run WQA:Automate()
/run WQA:AbortPartyLeave()
/run WQA:CreateQuestGroup()
I've intentionally left the WQA table global so you can call its various functions if you'd like. You can browse the API it exposes here: https://github.com/cheald/WorldQuestAssistant/blob/master/core.lua
(I don't guarantee that those method names won't change, but I don't expect them to)

Posted May 13, 2017I have seen this happen a handful of times, and I'm not sure why! It's in my active list of things to investigate.

Posted May 12, 2017I hope it's compatible with World Quest Group Finder auto-grouping... well because additional groups is always better. :)

Posted May 11, 2017Hey... could you try to add something to "check" and inform if someone is mounted or just above the ground.. ? Maybe with "kick slackers" button included ? ;)
Since legion flying... there is alot of slackers who are just flying above the quest area and waiting until 1-2 ppl finish the quest for them. Would be nice to have something special to fight with that kind of behavior . As far as I remember, in WQGF there was a button to kick all who are to far away from quest zone and addon was informing about them.
I hope you could find any smart solution for that problem :)
Btw. great job with that addon, thanks for doing that and GL with upgrades!

Posted May 11, 2017Oh, thats great! I'm going to help with testing ^^
Btw. Will that flaging/checking be avaible for every party member or just leader? Would be nice to allow everyone to use it, at least send info on chat. (and +kick flagged button for leader ^^ )

Posted May 11, 2017All party members will monitor idle status, but the kick prompts only appear if the player is the leader (since you can't kick when you're not the leader, obviously). If you become the leader then it'll already know who's idling and provide a kick prompt.

Posted May 9, 2017When in a party with my friend the only option that shows up is to leave the group With the "X" (close) icon. I don't see any of the other icons to create, join or apply. The "Allow Group Queueing" is on. Am I doing something wrong? The addon itself works perfectly when solo. Thank you for the great work, much cleaner than the other addon I was using.

Posted May 10, 2017Ah, the hotkey and triggers will work if you're already grouped, but the UI is "in a group" vs "not in a group".
I can likely get that behavior to work for the *first* quest encountered after manually grouping, but unless you both leave the group and then re-form after finishing the quest, it might get a little ambiguous. I'll see what I can do, though!

Posted May 10, 2017We both leave the group after one is done and then I just invite my friend again and go on to the next World Quest. This worked when using the World Quest Group Finder addon with the pop up window included there with no hotkeys.
Anyways, thankyou for looking into this personal preference issue, take care.

Posted May 8, 2017hey. thanks for your efforts writting the addon, personally finding it just great. you may find my question/request odd or too personal, but is there any chance to allow moving the popup frames? if not, is it possible to share information, on how or what should i look for, in order to achieve that (just don't suggest me MoveAnything;)
thanks again for your addon!
