LongPressCtrlToInteract  Updated this week!  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 2024.04.20
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.

Lightbulb Crafting Notice Boards

This add-on is amazing! It really spares us a lot of aggravation although, on occasion, I must remember to use the LongPress keybind when I want to interact with an NPC.

(1) Does the add-on work with the two new Companions introduced in Update 33 Ascending Tide?

(2) This is not significant, but it would be nice to suppress the prompt for a Notice Board unless the LongPress keybind is used. Ordinarily, my characters do not need to interact with a Notice Board, unless and until it has new daily Crafting Writ quests available -- which is shown by an arrowhead pointing downward above, on, or near the Notice Board.

Regardless, there might be an active resource node near or beneath the Notice Board which I want to harvest. Often the prompt for the Notice Board interferes with obtaining a prompt to interact with the resource node (i.e., unless the targeting reticle is directly on the resource node when I press the Interactive keybind).

If this is too much bother to add, then please do not bother to do it. .....

String shown:
Fischen (benötigt einen Köder)
Gedrückt halten, um einen Köder zu wählen.



The "benötigt einen Köder" part is replaced with the selected bait once I select one.


The string is displayed even if your addon is active, but no matter what options I use in your addon (even if everything is turned off), I can't select my bait. It seems that long pressing E is not possible, only normal pressing seems possible. So I can't select the bait, but I can fish if the bait is selected before. No matter how long I hold E, the action is always performed immediately, as if I had only tapped E briefly.

They are Butterfly and Torchbug
Thanks for the precious info, I'll update my addon according to that soon

I was missing one insect you had, so if you still want to have a list of all insects you may want to include Blackreach Jelly and Wasp - although Mirri couldnn't care less about those either. Maybe add an option to ignore all insects or just the ones Mirri gets precious about - that's what I've done.

Happy coding!
Yep I used a list on a database website so some of the insects in my list are possibly pets
Yep I did that too
Thanks for all and happy coding to you as well!

That makes total sense and works well.

I just tried both my banker and merchant cats and they worked with a one-key interaction. I don't know why before one required the additional control key - maybe a one off glitch.

Originally Posted by Masteroshi430

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).

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!

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