Thus my dilemma which mount shall i use and how can i chose them easily out of the mess of mounts found in the mounts tab.
Out of this Mounted was born. Instead of mucking about with secure code and make buttons that have to be skinned and carefully placed in your UI i instead chose to utilize the macro functions. Thus enabling you to simply use any actionbar mod.
So what does mounted actually do for you?
It will create a macro called Mounted in your global macro space this way you only use one slot and not one per character.
It will scan through all your mounts (and druid forms travel/flight) and create a list and sort them by speed.
It will then analyze your surroundings and edit the Mounted macro.
If you can fly then it will chose a random flying mount from the fastest category it will also chose a random ground mount to be used when using a modifier with the macro.
If you can not fly it will simply chose a random ground mount from the fastest category.
If you enter combat it will change the macro to a combat macro which you can edit in the Blizzard Addon options.
If you are indoors it will also change to the combat macro.
A new mount will be chosen for you every time you mount up.
every single macro type is customizable (editing of the attack macro is highly recommended)
macros can by customized with tags that get replaced when the macro is parsed (see below for list of available tags)
custom macros are saved globally so you will have access to them from all your characters (per account)
you can preview your macros before deciding on them
you can set priorities for mounts from 0-10 (0 = will never be selected, 10 will most likely be selected)
Macro tags are:
== Random Flying Mount (fastest speed increase)
== Random Flying Mount (310% speed increase)
== Random Flying Mount (280% speed increase)
== Random Flying Mount (60% speed increase)
== Random Flying Mount (scaling speed increase)
== Random Ground Mount (fastest speed increase)
== Random Ground Mount (100% speed increase)
== Random Ground Mount (60% speed increase)
== Random Ground Mount (0% speed increase)
== Random Ahn'Qiraj Mount
any suggestions or improvements are most welcome please open a ticket about them.
FYI if a Mount can not me classified it will send a message to your chat window simply copy this message in a ticket or here and i will add the mount to the correct category asap
