TraitBuddy  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 9.1.0
by: Weolo [More]
TraitBuddy is an addon that tries to help you easily manage and keep track of what crafting research traits all your characters know. Great for those alt'o'holics out there just like myself.

I have expanded many game tooltips so that the information you want to see is right there on the item where you need it. There is also a custom screen if you prefer to see all the research in one place.

In case you are unsure what an alt is, it is a term to describe another/alternative character.

This addon is for Blacksmithing, Clothing, Woodworker and Jewellery traits as the other professions don't have traits you can research.

The latest version of addon library LibAddonMenu is required and will need to be installed separately.

Features
  • Expanded in-game tooltips:
    Bag, loot, mail, buyback, trade, guild store search, guild store listings, links placed in chat, quest rewards, crafting, equipped items, and motifs
  • See the traits your character and your alts know
  • See the traits your character and your alts are researching
  • Automatically knows when your research has finished. You don't need to log on to your alts for it to update.
  • See the motifs your character and your alts know
  • Research overview screen
  • Compact movable window
  • Allows you to view any of your alts by simply picking them from a dropdown or using an icon bar
  • The screen you see will be just as if you had logged on to that alt
  • You choose which alts are included/compared
  • Customisable icon and text colours
  • Translated into English, French, German, Japanese and Russian
  • Supports gamepad mode
  • Ability to filter motifs, unknown, almost completed etc
  • List of all crafted sets with details of their bonuses and locations
  • Support for other addons such as Inventory Grid View and Inventory Insight
  • Icons in inventory
  • Plus a lot more...
Check out the attached screenshots for a small sample of what the addon offers.

What do the icons mean?
Green Tick
The selected character has researched that trait.

Orange Tick
At least one or more of your characters has completed researching that trait.
But not the currently selected character.

Blue Hourglass
The selected character is researching that trait.

Orange Hourglass
No characters have completed researching that trait but one or more of your characters have started to learn it.

The colours can be customised from the options.

How to set it up
  • Log in to each character one by one so TraitBuddy can automatically work its magic
  • Check out the tooltips on items with traits and motifs
There are 3 ways to open the TraitBuddy window
  1. Bind a key
  2. Use the buttons added to the corners of the crafting stations, skill screen and guild store
  3. Use the chat commands /traitbuddy and /traitbuddyoptions
Use any combination you prefer.
Binding a key is done from the normal ESO options screen
  • Bring up the ESO Options > Controls > Keybindings and scroll down until you see "TraitBuddy Addon"
  • Choose a key you would like to use to show and hide the window
  • Personally I bind the ] key

Info for other Addon makers
Detect when mousing over a trait in TraitBuddy
In your onLoad function
Lua Code:
  1. CALLBACK_MANAGER:RegisterCallback("TB-OnTraitMouseUp", OnTraitMouseUp)
Then add a new function to do your custom stuff
Lua Code:
  1. local function OnTraitMouseUp(craftingSkillType, researchLineIndex, traitIndex)
  2.     d(zo_strformat("DEBUG: OnTraitMouseUp <<1>> <<2>> <<3>>", tostring(craftingSkillType), tostring(researchLineIndex), tostring(traitIndex)))
  3. end

If you have ideas to improve this addon or have found a bug please either post on the comments section of this addon page or send me a private message.

I hope you like it and find it useful.

Version 5.9

I just uploaded version 5.9 which is for Summerset Chapter.
It will be available to download shortly.

I had to make a lot of changes to add in a whole new tree of crafting, along with new motifs and crafted sets.
I have tried very hard to get it working but let me know if you get any errors.

for info, i know you are working on it :)

Code:
user:/AddOns/TraitBuddy/TraitBuddy.lua:1013: attempt to index a nil value
stack traceback:
	user:/AddOns/TraitBuddy/TraitBuddy.lua:1013: in function 'OnResearchStarted'
popped after starting a jewelry so it should do it once you update

I am not playing Summerset atm as I work hard to make TraitBuddy work for the pre-order.
Its mostly done but I dont think I can finish it all off tonight

I will finish off the last bits and release the Summerset version tomorrow
Dont stress about it, we are all very lucky to play while you are working on an addon. Take the time you need and if you need a break and want to drop on game and play, DO IT!!!!

I am not playing Summerset atm as I work hard to make TraitBuddy work for the pre-order.
Its mostly done but I dont think I can finish it all off tonight

I will finish off the last bits and release the Summerset version tomorrow

@RavenMind
I will take a look to see what is involved in letting the addon remember settings between the EU and US servers.
One thing you will have to do is unselect the auto delete characters options under TraitBuddy settings.

That error would suggest something under the Motifs screen, but I have not changed anything there. Checking through the controls I have in there I have not set any auto resizing. So its not looking like TraitBuddy is directly causing that issue.
It's often more connected to using a large number of addons.
I will check the ESO controls I use in there though just in case some of those use auto resizing and maybe there is something I can do about that.
Make sure you patch all your addons to the latest version

Using 5.8.4 and receiving the following:
Code:
Too many anchors processed. Tail of anchor list:
TBMotifsContainerScrollChildTB_MotifHeader13Icon->
TBMotifsContainerScrollChildTB_MotifHeader13Yes->
TBMotifsContainerScrollChildTB_MotifHeader13No->
TBMotifsContainerScrollChildTB_MotifHeader13KnowText->
TBMotifsContainerScrollChildTB_MotifHeader13Toggle
Also when the TB screen us brought up the icons are offset from the rest of the menu until I click & drag it. Thanks.

Hi. Thank you for the reply! I tried turning off the tracking for my EU toons on the NA server. That works just fine. However it looks like when I go to the EU server, the settings are saved to only track the NA toons. (Or whomever I kept tracking on for.) Essentially there's no separation between settings for one server vs the other. I don't know if this is the sort of thing that is in high demand, or would be an easy thing to do, but I would find it helpful. It looks like Rhyono was able to separate them in her add-on; perhaps there might be some inspiration there? Not sure as I can barely decipher scripts.
If it doesn't get added, it's not a big deal. I'm still grateful for your work on this very handy add on!

Edit: ForgottenLight was also able to do it for DIKIFA, (see here). I vaguely understand the methodology but don't think I could adapt it myself. Thanks!
