WARLOCK whisper-queue-summon mod. Some question

[damagepy]

I just wrote a small warlock mod (only commandline-handled, but it doesnt really need any command anyway) that responds for summon whispers, make players to a queue (they can queue others too), and with a single click warlocks can summon ppl from the queue one after one. That one click targets it, checks if its summonable (not dead/offline or if you are in an instance then checks if the target is inside too) and starts to summon, announcing it in raidchat and sending an addon mesage to other locks that use this addon if you fail. Also if another lock summon a target that already in your queue, it will be removed automatically.
Also track SoulStones, and when you summon a soulwell you announce its type (summoning 2080 HP soulwell...).
You also can check other lock's that using this addon in the guild: their talentspec, their SS state/cooldown, number of shard, HS type (0/1/2). Can do the same with mages, querying their talents, number of food/water/reagent.

I know nothing about xml and GUI making, but I will not try to make anything more till I know there are no such addons. Currently only my guild using it, and they like it. Previously I used whispercast till blizzard nerfed the targeting from an addon.
(my addon creates an exclusive macro, and modifies its content after every event, so basically you just spam this macro if you drag it to the actionbar, and it will handle everything. One click, one summon. So even better than addons where they show the queued players nameplates in a CTRA MT list format and you must click on someone then click on the summon icon - this is 2 click and must use the mouse to target)

Its pretty stable but still sometimes it make a mistake, detecting a summon as failed even if it was successfull.

Also wanted to make an auto-cancel-trade thing for mages, to cancel incoming trades if the number of waters in the inventory less than 100. But my problem is, I cant query the name of the other ppl who trades me. IS THERE ANY WAY to do that? So it dont block trades if I am the one who request the trade or if my target is the person who trades me. Blizzard nerfed this too? (the TRADE_REQUEST event dont work anymore)

if someone interested, I can post the lock-addon here for testing.

This shouldn't be needed. Mods can do whatever they want outside of combat, and as far as I'm aware you can't edit a macro with a mod while in combat anyway.

No, blizzard nerfed targeting too... long ago... so you cant use any targeting command, like TargetUnit(). The player must click on the player/creature or its nameplate (in party or in raidframes) to target something. Thats why whispercast end the other similar addons are broken. And decursive is broken too, cant spam a button to autotarget and decurse ppl, must click or mouseover for that.
And I was sick to search 40 (25) name in raid if someone whispers me summon.
And I cant summon in combat anyway.

You could have the addon make a button and recode the button's target with the raid unit, surely?

Sorry I should've explained myself a bit better...

You should be able to use a SecureActionButton like follows:

<Frames>
<Button name="$parent_Button" inherits="SecureActionButtonTemplate" text="Meep" hidden="false">
<Size>
<AbsDimension x="50" y="25"/>
</Size>
<Anchors>
<Anchor point="TOP">
<Offset>
<AbsDimension x="0" y="-15"/>
</Offset>
</Anchor>
</Anchors>

<ButtonText name="$parentText"/>
<NormalFont inherits="GameFontNormal"/>
<HighlightFont inherits="GameFontHighlight"/>
<DisabledFont inherits="GameFontDisable"/>
<NormalTexture inherits="UIPanelButtonUpTexture"/>
<PushedTexture inherits="UIPanelButtonDownTexture"/>
<DisabledTexture inherits="UIPanelButtonDisabledTexture"/>
<HighlightTexture inherits="UIPanelButtonHighlightTexture"/>

<Scripts>
<OnLoad>
self:SetAttribute("unit", "player");
self:SetAttribute("type1", "spell");
self:SetAttribute("spell1", "Fear Ward");

</OnLoad>
</Scripts>

</Button>
</Frames>

Set the attributes to the required unit and spells is "Ritual of Summoning" and "PARTY1" or "RAID37" etc. All of this can be manipulated to your hearts content outside of combat.
