BankStack

Table of Contents

BankStack is the leading cause of things moving in your bags and bank.

It:

sorts your inventory, bank, or guild bank
fills incomplete stacks in your bank with items from your inventory
compresses your bags by filling incomplete stacks within them
puts a chicken in every pot, and pot in every chicken

Quick command reference:

/bankstack : show configuration
/sort : rearrange your bags
/sort bank : rearrange your bank
/sort account : rearrange your warband bank
/sort guild : rearrange your guild bank
/sort {group} : rearrange whatever group of bags you choose
/stack : fills stacks in your bank from your bags
/stack bank bags : fills stacks in your bags from your bank
/stack {group1} {group2} : fills stacks in group2 from group1
/compress : merges stacks in your bags
/compress bank : merges stacks in your bank
/compress {group} : merges stacks in group
/fill : fill empty slots in your bank from your bags
/fill {group1} {group2} : fill empty slots in group2 from group1
/squash {group} : fill up the front of the group, without sorting anything
/shuffle {group} : completely randomly rearrange the contents of this group

In the /bankstack configuration you'll find sections for "ignore" and "groups". Here's a bit of elaboration on the syntax for those parts.

You need, regrettably, to hear about bag ids first. Each bag has a number which addons use to interact with it.

Unfortunately, what number maps to what bag varies depending on game type. Take a look at https://warcraft.wiki.gg/wiki/BagID

The guild bank is a whole different system, and BankStack has made up the following fake bag ids for it: 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58

To ignore slot 1 of bag 0, the first slot in your backpack, go to the "ignore" panel and put "0 1" into the textfield and click "okay".

Groups are similar. Let's say that you're a herbalist, and only want to do some things to your herb bags.

You could put this into the "groups" textbox: herbs 3,4 Or this: bankherbs 10,11

You now have two custom groups, herbs and bankherbs. Presumably you keep massive herb bags in slots 3 and 4, and are making lots of money from this because you have the two most expensive bank slots as well (10 and 11).

Having created these groups you could:

/stack herbs bankherbs

Which would fill up stacks in your bank herb bags from stacks in your personal herb bags.

Predefined groups are: bank, bags, account, guild, all, and a few more.

Click the "list" button in the groups config to see a full list.

Here is a question that might stump people. I use the old backpack (as if i could replace anyways), and i use 4 Bag of Jewels Gem Bag (24 slot gem only bag). When i try to fill bags from guild with gems using "/fill guild bags", it only fills my backpack and not all bags. When i switch out the gem bags for Netherweave bags and use the same "/fill guild bags", it fills all my bags. Why won't it fill the Gem only bags???

Hi, I cannot find the lines:

if was_guild then
local next_source, next_target = decode_move(moves[i-1])

Thanks.

For those of you having problems with the time it takes to sort the guild bank, the following lines will help speed things up greatly:

Within the core.lua

Search for:

-- Guild bank CursorHasItem/CursorItemInfo isn't working, so slow down for it.
if was_guild then
local next_source, next_target = decode_move(moves[i-1])

And add the following code

-- Guild bank CursorHasItem/CursorItemInfo isn't working, so slow down for it.
if was_guild then
t = GetNumGuildBankTabs()
c = 1
while c <= t do
SetCurrentGuildBankTab(c)
QueryGuildBankTab(c)
c = c+1
end
local next_source, next_target = decode_move(moves[i-1])

This will force the client to open each guild bank tab, thus removing any locks and speeding things right up.

Enjoy

No problem, I've fixed it so it doesn't automatically sit at the last bank tab:

-- Guild bank CursorHasItem/CursorItemInfo isn't working, so slow down for it.
if was_guild then
n = GetNumGuildBankTabs()
t = GetCurrentGuildBankTab()
c = 0
while c <= n do
SetCurrentGuildBankTab(t)
QueryGuildBankTab(t)
c = c+1
if (t == n) then
t = 1
else
t = t + 1
end
end
local next_source, next_target = decode_move(moves[i-1])

Not sure why, but it's line 435ish (depending on which text editor you're opening in)
