Farmhand - WoW AddOns

Description
Farmhand adds dynamic buttons on the screen while you are at Sunsong Ranch.

The buttons allow quick access to the Plow, Shovel, Bug Spray and Watering Can if they are in your inventory. If you do not have a given item, there will be no button for it. Also adds buttons for seeds that are in your inventory. You can even sell unwanted seeds at a vendor without having to open your bags.

When you leave Halfhill, any tools remaining in your inventory will be dropped. You can pick them up again at the farm. (You can disable this feature.)

A special Crop Scanner tool will let you quickly find any plants you've overlooked that need special attention. (Very hand for the hard-to see Smothered and Runty plants.)

To move the buttons, hold SHIFT and drag a button with the left mouse button.

In the Interface Options panel, you can turn on/off tool dropping, turn on/off chat messages and sounds, turn on/off the portal shard buttons and control whether Farmhand automatically hides itself during combat.

I recommend using Masque (optional) to make your buttons pretty.

Localization

The Crop Scanner works by targeting plants by name. Therefore it's dependent upon localization which has not been completed for all languages.

If the Crop Scanner doesn't work in your language, please visit the localization page and provide translations.
I will repackage the addon to include the translations and you will be credited for your contribution.

Current supported locales: enUS, deDE, frFR, itIT, ruRU, zhCN

Translations needed: ptBR, koKR, esMX, esES, zhTW

Will you be adding support for the new seed bags? I love this addon and I wouldn't want to farm without it.

Well I'm glad that it's working, but I still have no idea why it was failing before or why it isn't now.

Thanks for the feedback!

Sure, it shows the same as in the previous version.

Taken with different tooltip placement options (to the right/to the bottom).

It's strange that your game isn't caching the item info. Are you clearing your cache prior to loading, perhaps to make a mod like NPCScan work?

Ok, seems i've found the problem. After opening and closing the vendor window, the errors go away. It seems it needs to retrieve the item info from the server and maybe it's taking too long to cache it. This have to be done again after restarting the client though.

So in short, if i'm erroring while mousing over Witchberry Seeds and close/reopen the window, the error goes away. I will try 1.2.4b3 tomorrow and continue monitoring.

I have just pushed v1.2.4b3 which should eliminate the error, but the tooltip won't show the vegetable name if GetItemInfo continues to return nil. It will instead show the itemid of the vegetable. If you don't mind, check the displayed itemid by doing:

/run print(GetItemInfo(99999))

Where 99999 is replaced with the itemid shown in the tooltip.

And thanks for helping me track this down.
