kAutoOpen Dragonflight

Update of kAutoOpen for Dragonflight, the original was working until the Dragonflight pre-patch changes, so I just got it working again … at least for the moment, no guarantee it will hold up to future patches.

This addon saves you a bit of time by attempting to open a container item you’ve picked up like the Winter Veil Gifts, rather than you having to search through your bags to do so.  If you don’t want an item opened for some reason, change its value to false in the addon’s LUA file.

If for some reason kAutoOpen doesn’t open the item, which just happens sometimes, use New Openables, alongside this addon, it’s great for items that this addon won’t open or that just aren’t cache items (pets, toys, etc), it displays a clickable button when you have a usable item in your bags. (Thanks to the new owner, for bringing it back from the dead.)

I’ll update this once per patch or something (if it doesn’t die), if you want the most up-to-date version of my LUA files, before it’s updated here, they’ll be in my OneDrive, linked in the comments.

Notes:
  + Put files in ‘C:\WoW\_retail_\Interface\Addons\kAutoOpen\’.
      – ‘C:\WoW\’ is my Install Directory, yours is probably different.
  + My edit shows up as ‘!AutoOpen 10.0.2’ in the Addon List.
       – ‘AutoOpening [Box Name] ‘ is displayed when looting.

AutoVendor is another great addon, and I hope someone keeps it going after WoW manages to destroy its current fixed state.  Big thanks to gerrit_alex for the fixes which made it work again in Dragonflight. (those fixes also showed me how to fix kAutoOpen).

Also, thanks to the WoW community as a whole as there are some great Addons & WeakAuras out there that take a lot of time and patience to create and keep up to date.
