‘Achievement GZ’

This AddOn sends an automatic messages like ‘gz’ by receiving an achievement event form your guild members or people around you and a lot more :).

It can also answer a received guild ‘gz’ after you got an achievement.

You can easily configure it to send different messages to your guild channel, party channel, simply by ‘saying’ or additionally whisper it.

It has a default delay which can be randomized before sending the message.

You can ignore special achievements by providing their name or ignore complete categories like all ‘Quests’ achievements for sending a message.

Please read the “Version History” section below for an overview of all currently implemented features!

The message to send can be modified to the embed the players name who gained the achievement, his realm and the achievementname to individualize the message, like

gz Hogger for ‘getting killed by 1 million players‘ by just using gz %n% for ‘%a%’

A small AddOn to make your life easier even in large guilds 😉

No configuration needed – works directly after installation with default settings!

Feel free to report bugs and feature requests!

Version History

2.2.7

• added an offset to automatically welcome members as midnight isn’t the best time to switch.

2.2.5

• fix for deprecated API functions in patch 9.0.1

2.2.4

• switch to game version 9.0.1

2.2.3

• fix for new guild member welcome

2.2.2 big update

• update for Patch 8.3
• added a minimap button
• added a “per player” settings tab. You can optionally define special settings for each player and also link their twinks to the main char to use these settings for the twinks also. It’s also possible to enter the realname or nickname of the player to use this instead of the toons name (if you didn’t solve this by using replacements already).
• possible timeframes for messagepools like “respond to welcome”
• global chatfilter implemented – can react on every defined default channel. Even on emotes or things said by monsters/NPCs.
• reactions in chatfilter can be every slash command, so for example you can automatically add a tomtom waypoint as reaction (simply use ‘/way x y’ ) on a monster yelling something (I used this feature in mechagon to set a tomtom arrow for special NPCs popping up randomly) or someone is saying something in the BG.
  Mechagon example (in german) I used in channel ‘monsters’: “Boggac Schädelrums=/way 55.64 26.37 Boggac Schädelrums”
• you can limit the trigger to a zone, scenario, raid and much more by adding the zone name in brackets like (Mechagon) for the example above.
