FOB - Companion Helper Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.12.1

by: FlatBadger [More]

FOB is a companion mod to prevent accidental companion interaction.

Ever clicked to loot something only to find your companion conversation starting because they have leapt in front of you to grab all your attention? Annoying isn't it? (Well, I find it annoying).

Prevents any companion interactions from happening
Toggle the original functionality or toggle your companion using keybindings
Ignore flying insects when Mirri is out, or only allow ones that don't decrease rapport
Prevent criminal interactions when Bastian or Isobel is out
When you move the reticle over a companion, nothing will happen. Click the action button over a companion, nothing will happen. Bliss.
Stop losing Rapport with Bastian when you craft something with cheese in it. FOB will warn you and cancel the crafting of that item. Works with DailyProvisioning too.
Alternate summoning message frame
Prevent entry to Outlaw's Refuges when Isobel is out
Prevent fishing when Ember is out
Prevent mushroom gather or recipes with coffee for Azander
Block outfit stations and warn of low gear durability for Sharp as Night

Now, if I could only get them to shut up too...

Compatible with DailyProvisioning and RuEso (as of V2.3.0)

Slash Commands
/fob - open FOB's settings page

If I temp disable FOB everything works normally.

Ah - this may be a restriction in the game itself - I thought all functions would work, but it seems not. I may have to remove this keybind for the next version.

Thanks for letting me know.

Yes there is - have a look in your in-game bindings (Controls). You can set a keybinding in there. A message will be printed in your chat window to confirm enabling / disabling.

Thank you, I didn't know what that was at all.
Just starting to figure it out ))

I don't know how, but it works:

...
local BASTIAN = zo_strformat("<<1>>", GetCollectibleInfo(GetCompanionCollectibleId(1)))
local MIRRI = zo_strformat("<<1>>", GetCollectibleInfo(GetCompanionCollectibleId(2)))
...

Found it here:
https://wiki.esoui.com/GetCharacterInfo
https://wiki.esoui.com/How_to_format...h_zo_strformat

Oops, took a long time to compile ))

ZOs provides it's own function to remove the gender prefix and suffix to the strings. zo_strformat or ZO_CachedStrFormat (if the string will be reused more often). See here: https://wiki.esoui.com/How_to_format...h_zo_strformat e.g. use zo_strformat(SI_UNIT_NAME, GetUnitName("player")) to remove and ^ms or ^f suffix SI_UNIT_NAME is just a text constant for the GetString function (same like your translations work) which contains "<<C:1>>" (or <<1>> depending on the language used in the client) in that case. See: https://github.com/esoui/esoui/blob/...game.lua#L4430 <<C:1>> means capitalize the first charater. You can use this for ~all names like player, group, companions, .... and itemnames etc. So for your case: Lua Code: local BASTIAN = ZO_CachedStrFormat(SI_UNIT_NAME, GetCollectibleInfo(GetCompanionCollectibleId(1))) local MIRRI = ZO_CachedStrFormat(SI_UNIT_NAME, GetCollectibleInfo(GetCompanionCollectibleId(2))) Example code in ZOs code: https://github.com/esoui/esoui/blob/...hared.lua#L100 Last edited by Baertram : 01/20/22 at 09:13 AM.
