   Any word on when or even if you’ll introduce support for enchant scrolls?

   Having a problem when trying to queue Glyphs, and from your old site I gather I’m not alone with this. I’ve downloaded all the latest versions (which might be causing the problem) of auctioneer, altoholic and skillet ) but what “happens” is, when i type
   /ktq queue 3 glyphs
   and press enter, absolutely nothing happens. Tried to google but didn’t find any answer for this

   Thanks for this great tool. I’m really interested to know what prices KTQ use to queue up glyphs: Min. Buyout or Market average?

   Is it possible to use the same search filter as in Skillet ?
   What I mean is that in the Skillet search filter I can filter out all the minor glyphs. This is something I would like to see in ktq too, because that I can queue only the minor (or major) glyphs.

   Is it possible for it to ‘see’ items in a specific guild bank? One of my bank alts finally started a guild and I dump my sub-5g glyphs in there until they go up in value. So I don’t want to craft more of them. I use Altoholic and it sees my guild banks. Just wondering. Thanks for making such a great addon.

   Kevmar, many thanks for this amazing add-on. I’d been having a lot of trouble getting Quick Auctions to properly tradeskill for me, and KTQ has revolutionized my workflow.

   I seem to have an odd issue I can’t quite figure out the cause of, was wondering if anyone might have any ideas.

   I was queueing up glyphs, making sure I had 15 of each in total. Depending on the particular glyph, I might have more than 15 already in my bags/bank. One such glyph was Glyph of Sprint. Despite it being cataloged by Altoholic as already having 17, KTQ kept adding it to my Skillet queue as needing a full 15 crafted.

   I’ve cleared the queue, re queued, and despite there being 17 in my scribe’s bag, KTQ believed I needed 15 more of it, while every other glyph was queued for only the 15-x amount.

   Any ideas why a single glyph would be acting weird? It’s not in a bank, on a non-account toon or in a mailbox.

   Once again, thanks for the amazing work, you’re a lifesaver.

   Look for 1.05 to show up on curse shortly (pending approval) to fix the issue with glyph of sprint.

    Comment by Mithorn — November 18, 2009 @ 3:01 pm

11. 

    can someone suggest a way (if it is possible) to craft 20 glyph if i have less than 2 currently.
    is this currently possible?

    if not is it a feature that might be added?

    /ktq queue 2 glyph 20

    might be a good syntax for it.

    /ktq queue [queue threshold] [keyword] [number to queue]

    or perhaps so as to not confuse with the current syntax

    /ktq queue 20 glyph 2

    so leaving off the threshold would default to the current method.

    thanks in advance

    I’m looking for a solution to load balance my crafting across scribes. I currently have 3 scribes @ 400+ skill, one who is 19 days away from having all glyphs, and two who have everything you can learn from a trainer + 1 research each. Within the next few weeks I’ll have 5 scribes @ 400+.

    Ideally I’d like to sync all of my inventory data to a single crafter, have him /ktq queue 20 glyphs, and then have KTQ split that workload between the 5 crafters based off the recipes they actually have…

    An alternative would be to impliment whitelists of glyphs a toon *will* craft, then I could split the load that way, and just sync inventory data to all 5 toons, and /ktq queue 20 glyphs on each one…

    Any help would be appreciated! (If you would like to discus this in further detail I can be reached @ my e-mail address in this comment.)

    never mind answering comment 11.
    i found the Bonusqueue command.

    @zanthor – i’m assuming you 5 box and are looking to craft simultaneously to cut down your crafting time. once all your crafters have every recipie you might consider splitting by class. so each does a couple of classes each.

    at first i was going to suggest craft on the least skilled first that would add his new glyphs to the inventory for the second crafter who would obviously not queue those and so on. but then i realised you probably wanted to craft simultaneously.

    you could do it manually….queue on main…then manually compare his queue to the alts and drop off his queue if the alt can craft it. not sure if it wouldnt be quicker to craft them all on the main though.

    Comment by Anti — November 23, 2009 @ 8:42 pm

14. 

    Yes, I’m hoping to be able to craft simultaneously.

    The catch is I’ll never have all recipes on 4 of them, it’s a total waste of gold to buy the books. It’s even a waste of ink to do the research every day… For the time it would take to load balance manually I’m better off just using the other four for milling/inking and doing all the glyph crafting on one…

    Adding the ability to WhiteList glyphs shouldn’t be that hard, I’ll probably crack the code open in the near future and take a look… adding the ability to divide and broadcast the list is a bit harder, but doable… I’ve done my fair share of coding, but haven’t ever been really efficient with Lua.

    Comment by zanthor — November 23, 2009 @ 9:51 pm

15. 

    I see a few different ways you could load ballance it. If you know a little lua, you could create a custom group in the code. I allow the use of item numbers now so you could create a group and load it with item numbers. The same could be done with several macros. I only sugest going to the code because I expect the list to be long.

    You could break it out by alphabet. /ktq queue 20 glyph of a

    Start by giving them all 1-2 letters and craft a batch. Then keep moving 4 of them forward and have your guy with all the patterns go back and craft any that they missed.

    Comment by Kevmar — November 24, 2009 @ 9:48 am

16. 

    I took a look in the code today and was happy to see how straight forward it is.

    I’m pretty certain I can build a single list of “stock” glyphs and create a Queue for them, count how many book learned or researched glyphs I’ve got, and deal out the remaining tasks based off that…

    Once that’s done use RPC code to send the Queue’s to the other crafters. I may even get fancy with the crafters and have them “register” their recipe lists with the guy I plan on leading this from, so if I do decide to do research on them it will account for that. (I definitely won’t be doing the glyph books.)

    Comment by Zanthor — November 24, 2009 @ 2:33 pm

17. 

    Oh… I normally use RDX and VFL for my cross client communications, if y ou would like I’ll code the RPC calls utilizing Ace and will happily submit the code back to you if you want to integrate it.

    Comment by Zanthor — November 24, 2009 @ 2:34 pm

18. 

    I would love to see what you come up with.

    If you made the communication part as a new mod for skillet, I bet many people would want to use it. I could see it where you make a queue on one char (by hand or with KTQ) and then run a script that walks down the queue moving part of the workload to another char. If you have it check on the spot if that char can make it or not, you would not have to maintain a central registry.

    I’m having some trouble queuing ranked items eg Armour Vellum III. KTQ dosnt seem to want to add them.
    Can you clarify the syntax for adding item id’s to force it to add ranked versions of items please.
    Cheers

    Comment by Faeghleis — November 24, 2009 @ 6:43 pm

    The syntax is

    Kevmar,

    While using /ktq queue # raregems, I’ve noticed Sky Sapphire Pendant ( http://www.wowhead.com/?item=45813 ) being added to my queue. Likely just a spell # mistake (or whatever lol) I thought I’d bring to your attention.

    Out of curiosity, I don’t quite understand the threshhold and how to apply it/use it. Is it based automatically on Auctioneer data, or is it something the user implements per command?

    Thanks again for this addon. It’s been a lifesaver. =)

    Hi Kev,

    I come to you today requesting advice on someone who uses ktq with 2x accounts. My proposed setup will be camper on one acc, glyph maker on my main acc. Yes, i have got the accs “Requesting” each others data. But im not sure where to go from here (Or if its even possible) to get ktq to queue relating to how many glyphs are on my actual poster. Any info or links (Because i know ive read it somewhere of someone doing the same thing, i just havnt been able to dig it up) would be greatley appreciated.

    Tyvm,

    @Mythica
    I know I need to remove that from the group. I did a very lazy implementation of groups. For raregems it just queues everything that has the gem names in the name. So anything matching Sky Sapphire gets queued up. I’ll try and fix in in a future release.

    @Derp
    I beleive you have you sync your altoholic between accounts just before you make the queue. I beleive its an option in altoholic to share data. KTQ depends on Altoholic to know how much you have.

    Kev,

    If there’s anything anybody (aka: me) can do to help, please, don’t hesitate to ask. I’d be willing to swim through spell ids or item #s for most any profession if it’d help you build a stronger or more accurate database.

    Can’t imagine trying to keep an add-on updated while playing less and less of the game. You’re a hero. =)

    Look at your altoholic options. If you can hide it from altoholic, KTQ will ignore it too.

    Hi Kev,

    Great add-on! Is it possible to create a queue that only contains items that I have the ingredients for?

    Loving the addon so far.

    Would it be possible to remove the chat spam when using the /ktq queue # X ?

    Hey there, have been using your addon for a few months and it has been working superbly. Recently I started to get this error:

    1x KevTool Queue-1.05\KevTool Queue.lua:207: attempt to call method ‘GetItemCount’ (a nil value)

    queueString4 = nil
    queueString5 = nil
    queueString6 = nil

    Curious if it was one of the addons I updated. I am using altoholic and queueing glyphs from the inventory of another account if that helps.

    There seems to be a problem with Threshold where it will, if none of a specific item is found during the last scan, claim that the price is 0, thus skipping the item, even though it might normally sell for more.

    Comment by Zardilann — December 30, 2009 @ 11:43 pm

34. 

    Sorry if i make some mistakes, English isn’t my native language.

    @ Drwho
    Yeah, I recently had the same problem,I think it began when I updated Altoholic to the most recent version 3.3.001b (12-26-2009) , so I switched back to the former version 3.3.001 (09-12-2009), which solved the whole thing.

    The problem now is that I get a new error from Altoholic ( that was probably solved with the new version) , but that one isn’t too bad.

    Comment by Golaz — January 2, 2010 @ 9:34 am

    Hey all,

    If you are having trouble with KTQ since the latest Altoholic patch, here is some code to drop into KevToolQueue.lua to make it work again. It appears that Altoholic has moved their code around and the bit that Kev was hooking into has morphed into something more complex that no longer is usable here. So I took the OLD code and streamlined it and merged it into my KevToolQueue.lua file and it seems to be working.

    Just put the following code at the end of the file and replace “Altoholic:GetItemCount” with “GetItemCount”

    Your mileage may vary, no warranties expressed or implied, yada yada yada, but this works for me. Good luck.

    - Max

    function GetItemCount(searchedID)
    – Return the total amount of times an item is present on this realm, and prepares the V.ItemCount table for later display by the tooltip

    local count = 0
    if Altoholic.Options:Get(“TooltipMultiAccount”) == 1 and not Altoholic.Comm.Sharing.SharingInProgress then
    for account in pairs(DataStore:GetAccounts()) do
    count = count + GetAccountItemCount(account, searchedID)
    end
    else
    count = GetAccountItemCount(THIS_ACCOUNT, searchedID)
    end

    if Altoholic.Options:Get(“TooltipGuildBank”) == 1 then
    – multi account ici
    for guildKey, guild in pairs(Altoholic.db.global.Guilds) do
    if not guild.hideInTooltip then

    local guildCount = 0

    guildCount = DataStore:GetGuildBankItemCount(guildKey, searchedID)

    if Altoholic.Options:Get(“TooltipGuildBankCount”) == 1 then
    count = count + guildCount
    end
    end – end if not hidden
    end – end guild
    end

    return count
    end

    function GetAccountItemCount(account, searchedID)

    local realm = GetRealmName() – implicit: this realm only
    local count = 0

    for _, character in pairs(DataStore:GetCharacters(realm, account)) do
    if Altoholic.Options:Get(“TooltipCrossFaction”) == 1 then
    count = count + GetCharacterItemCount(character, searchedID)
    else
    if DataStore:GetCharacterFaction(character) == UnitFactionGroup(“player”) then
    count = count + GetCharacterItemCount(character, searchedID)
    end
    end
    end
    return count
    end

    local ItemCounts = {}

    function GetCharacterItemCount(character, searchedID)
    ItemCounts[1], ItemCounts[2] = DataStore:GetContainerItemCount(character, searchedID)
    ItemCounts[3] = DataStore:GetAuctionHouseItemCount(character, searchedID)
    ItemCounts[4] = DataStore:GetInventoryItemCount(character, searchedID)
    ItemCounts[5] = DataStore:GetMailItemCount(character, searchedID)
    ItemCounts[6] = DataStore:GetCurrencyItemCount(character, searchedID)

    local charCount = 0
    for _, v in pairs(ItemCounts) do
    charCount = charCount + v
    end

    return charCount
    end

    Thanks for the patch! I had to replace all – and ” characters but i guess it’s due to some automated browser something and now everything works again

    Thanks for all the code sugestions and fixes.

    You can also try the altoholic versions listed http://wow.curseforge.com/addons/altoholic/files/ for altoholic. It looks like r67 and newer opened that function back up to me. Remeber its development code though.

    Comment by Kevmar — January 5, 2010 @ 5:48 pm

    I’ve tried r68 altoholic from Jan 13th as well as several other versions and am still getting the attempt to compare a nil number on code line 220 error. Seems some versions of altoholic remove the required datastore folders when being installed which is weird.

    I have the lil sparky skillet clone and the latest ktq from curse as well.

    Someone needs to just make a modpack with the correct versions of the necessary mods for people to download

    Comment by Mike — January 22, 2010 @ 10:44 pm

39. 

    HEy! Great addon love it!

    How can we change the pricing modell used in ktq?

    I normally dont use the amrket price. I prefer the min Buyout price to show up in skillet. This is the best way to compete with undercutters. KTQ makes a queue that includes some items that have a high market value but AT THE MOMENT ARE VERY LOW DUE to their MINBoyOUT… UIndercutters are hard on my server so i would ktq advise to create only items with the Highest minBuyOut from my recent auctioneer data….

    pls excuse my bad english^^

    best regards

    You should check your your curse page for this mod. People are all posting issues there.

    Comment by Nicolas Chan — April 17, 2010 @ 12:08 am

    quick question…is there any way to have KTQ use something like bagnon’s datastore rather than altoholic’s? bagnon hardly ever gives me issues, but altoholic does lately…the altoholic developer has been kinda MIA for a bit doing other random things (non-game related) so a lot of the bugs with patches haven’t been addressed lately…just curious, thanks for the great addon

    Comment by flip — April 23, 2010 @ 1:55 pm

    can you add so the prices are grabbed from auctionator as an alternative to auctioneer for those of us who dont like to use the bulky addon.

    Comment by bob — April 25, 2010 @ 3:24 am

45. 

    I just did a fresh install of KTQ and all related mods using the curse updater and everything just worked. I even deleted my WTF folder.

    As far as I can tell everything is in working order as of 5/1/2010.

    Comment by Kevmar — May 1, 2010 @ 6:05 pm

    Hi Kevmar,

    i made some modifications at KTQ.

    1) German-Localization to make the enchant scrolls work. also translated the gems.
    2) New option “Profit”: It works similar to Threshold but it looks for the difference between auctionValue and costValue.
    3) Add also new slash commands:
    /ktq enable/disable profit
    /ktq set profit …

    If you like the idea send me an email and I’ll send you the changed files.

    Or should I post it here?

    It seems Lil’Sparky is working on a replacement for skillet, http://www.wowace.com/addons/gnomeworks/ .

    KTQ’s come up a couple of times in the end-user discussion, thought I’d drop in over here to let you know what might be causing your burning ears/sneezing, whichever superstition you follow.

    And while he’s working on some kind of Quota system, I’ll still prefer the simplicity of KTQ as it’s such a large part of my daily routine.

    Comment by Hematia — July 12, 2010 @ 1:20 am

    I’d like to second Heratia’s comments. It would be great to get a new version KTQ that works with GnomeWorks.

    Thanks

    Hi Kevmar,

    Looks like a terrific addon, but I’m having a problem getting it to work with enchanting.

    I have a whole lot of scrolls in my inventory, however, when I queue up additional ones, the addon doesn’t seem to subtract what I have in my inventory.

    When I add /ktq queue 5 47766 (this is scroll of enchant – Greater defence)
    Despite having 10 of them in my bags, KTQ still adds 5 to my queue.

    At this point, I think it MUST be related to a setting I have.
    I’ve fresh installed all the addons.
    Gone back to old version of the addons.
    Deleted my WTF folder… and installed the latest addons.

    Still no luck.

    Any ideas?
