LongPressCtrlToInteract Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2024.07.14

by: Masteroshi430 [More]

Annoyed by Companions, Followers, Seats, Insects, etc interactions at the wrong moment ?

LongPressCtrlToInteract will only allow companion & quest follower (NPCs following you during a quest) interaction if you keep the Ctrl (or Alt/Shift/Cmd) key pressed while using your "Interact with Environment" keybind.

Parts of code were "borrowed" from No Interact by Rhyono and No, thank you! by Garkin, Ayantir and SlippyCheeze.

Note:
The quest follower's name is recorded during the 1st dialogue with him/her/it after him/her/it has acquired his/her/its follower status and the addon starts doing it's magic just after that.
For the companion and the other features, it works instantly.

Fully automatic
Message in chat to remind you the right keys to press to interact with companion / quest follower if you use use the regular keybind alone on them.

Settings:

You can set SHIFT, ALT or CMD instead of the default CTRL as the long press key.

~~Disallow seeing text links and thus interaction with Insects~~ (removed for now)
Disallow seeing text links and thus interaction with Empty containers (which means empty backpacks, barrels, urns, baskets, chests, crates, cupboards, drawers, nightstands, etc links all become non displayed/usable)
Disallow seeing text links and thus interaction with Seats
Disallow seeing text links and thus interaction with cooking fires (outside of town)
Auto summon latest companion after 1st fight without him/her (You have to do a combat with him/her first, then he/she will comeback after next fight after being removed) (per character)

Also auto blocks entering the Dark Brotherhood sanctuary with Mirri & Eloise + center screen notification.
Also auto blocks entering Outlaw's refuges with Eloise + center screen notification.

As a bonus, if it is easy to add, maybe put in the settings "Works on Merchant", "Works on Banker", "Works on Fence", etc with On and Off options.

Thanks for the add on and your fast help!

The way I coded it it should allow interactions with all YOUR assistants (because your assistants can be easily toggled on/off ingame via quickslots) and ask you in chat to use the key combination for the assistants belonging to other players in your group (but only after a 1st interaction).
e. g. Interactions with your assistants should work as usual, interaction with other players's assistants is only allowed 1 time before being blocked and getting a message in chat with the key combination.

Unfortunately I don't own any assistant at this moment so I can't test myself so please test it thoroughly and report if it doesn't work as I said it should work.

I don't think I want to add these options because as I wrote earlier I think you can easily toggle off your assistant to avoid interactions (but I could be wrong).

Ah I didn't know that, I will see if I can exclude them!

Yep, I think, since the assistants are easily accessible/removable from the quickslots menu, that nobody will need the main feature of the addon on them. The feature works for the assistants belonging to the other players in your group though.

I removed the version from the addon name as requested.

Maybe do not change this in the official version but create a beta and link it to the comments for testing

Edit: Oh I think I understood now. It should not have blocked the normal interactable assistants, just the NPCs and companion

Both seem to be interactable without pressing the key now, yes.
Bastian is blocked, seems to work.

Could you please remove this version string from the addon's title in your txt:

The addon name should be kept clean, no author and no version info in there (author is discussable as some addons always start with the authors name or similar

).

I really disturbs the eye, and it disturbs addons like Addon selector which search the addon names as it will find 2022 or . that way.
The version is something you should show in the LAM settings menu (which you already do) or add it to the description text of the txt file as it will be shown in the addon manager's expanded text (Votans AddonList popup of the addon) then.

I only summon the NPcs for bank and vendor as I need them so I do not need to press any extar key for them, only the companion is troubling me as he will be up most of the time.
Thanks for considering this.

Ah it works for bankers & vendors?
I will try to exclude them but I don't have any to test...
I will try to find a way...

edit :
IsInteractingWithMyAssistant() should do the job, I will try to add that condition to exclude them but you'll have to report if it works after the update

edit2: uploaded, tell me if it works

I hope it works for your assistant.

could you eventually make an addidional checkbutton for the bugcollection filter to only work when exploring with mirri ?

It's doable, I will have a look at it tonight...
I assume somebody will then ask to disable thieving with Bastian...(also doable)

I'm not interested in donations but some of you insist a lot, if you feel obligated to give me something you can send me game gold at @Masteroshi430 on the EU server.
