Ammo-matique

Ammo-matique provides automated ammo handling - it can automatically reload for you if you run out of your current ammo type, and it can automatically select the suitable ammo type for any particular situation. Additionally, it can alert you when you're running low or out of ammo, in a variety of ways including voice feedback.

Currently supported features

• Automatic discovery and ranking of ammo. The best ammo is referred to as the "premium", and the worst the "low-grade".
• Automatic reloading of appropriate ammo type. If you were using premium ammo, the second best will be loaded when you run out of the best ammo, and vice versa.
• Automatic switching of ammo type (premium vs low-grade) depending on mob type and location, or PvP situation.
• Warnings when the current ammo drops below a configured threshold, runs out, and when all ammo runs out.
• Warning in the default chat window.
• Warning in the standard error frame.
• Warning by voice over (male and female voice sets available).
• Automatic ammo restocking. This add-on can automatically buy ammo from vendors and keep you topped up to a configurable level.
• Ammo bag designation. Keep all your ammo in the bag you specify, even when it's not a quiver/ammo pouch.
• Integration with any LibDataBroker (LDB) display add-on, such as TitanPanel and ChocolateBar.
• All features configurable via the standard menu (Esc -> Interface -> AddOns)
• Keybinds for the common operations.
• /ammo slash-command for macro access to Ammo-matique.

Localization support

• enUS: full support
• others: possible, but need translators
• Full functionality should be available across all locales, starting with version 1.4beta2. Prior to this the auto-reloading would not work in non-US locales.

LDB support

Ammo-matique now has LDB support, meaning it integrates with display addons like Titan Panel, ChocolateBar, etc. It provides the current ammo count (color coded based on ammo quality) and ammo icon, as well as list of the available ammo as a tooltip. Left-clicking toggles equipped premium/lowgrade. Right-clicking brings up the configuration dialog. FuBar users can use the Broker2FuBar plugin to enable Ammo-matique and other LDB plugins in FuBar.

Planned features

• Depends on where Blizzard decides to go with ammo... I have built this add-on as platform to build on once we know the details of the changes. Things such as per-boss ammo selection have been considered while designing this add-on, and will be easy to add on, should that become reality.
• Improved ammo bag. Ideally it should be configurable whether you want your ammo first or last in the bag.
• Allowing overriding of ammo type based on the name of a mob, instead of just its class (non-elite/elite/boss) and setting (instance/raid/etc).
• Allow the auto-switching to be enabled/disabled on a per-instance basis.

Known issues

• On zoning/logging in it can sometimes issue the "all ammo exhausted" warning, even though you have ammo. This seems to be due to the game not providing all bag contents for inspection by the addon at that stage. As it is, the warning is harmless (though somewhat annoying). I'm looking into possible fixes for it.
• Should you manage to find a (new) bug, please use the ticket system to provide feedback.

Status

• Stable.
