Auto Response to Group Request Invite

[Gogo1951]

There is a massive problem in the game right now... if you create a group, you get blasted with a bunch of, "Let me in" requests without context. This was 15-seconds of invite requests during launch. OVERWHELMING!

 [Arkanas] has requested to join your group. 
 [Babytiger] has requested to join your group. 
 [Cuwuda] has requested to join your group. 
 [Dragonknig] has requested to join your group. 
 [Emss] has requested to join your group. 
 [Gegetê] has requested to join your group. 
 [Gladysknight] has requested to join your group. 
 [Gruumia] has requested to join your group. 
 [Homee] has requested to join your group. 
 [Kurísù] has requested to join your group. 
 [Mikecoxmaul] has requested to join your group. 
 [Paladinaam] has requested to join your group. 
 [Picowchu] has requested to join your group.

 [Rupertø] has requested to join your group. 
 [Ryuhin] has requested to join your group. 
 [Ryuhin] has requested to join your group.

We need to hit people back with a question to provide their role and spec.

And if they have Groupie installed, automatically send that info.

And this can help get the word out about Groupie.

(Looks like the request to join and invite are the same events coming out of LFG Tool, need to confirm.)

If not in a group yet...

1) Get an invite...

2) And it's not someone you have spoken to in the last minute...

3) Respond to person who sent invite:

{rt3} Groupie : What are you inviting me to? Let me know what role you need, and if there are any loot rules or reserves. Thanks!

(Might be useful to see if we can pull from the Groupie Bulletin Board... maybe we can derive what the person is posting about... but this would be a nice-to-have.)

If in a group...

1) Get a request to join group...

2) And it's not someone you have spoken to in the last minute...

3) Add-on Channel : "Hey, do you have Groupie?"

4a) Get version / yes back from person who sent invite. Wait like 2 seconds... and if you don't get a response assume NO Groupie installed.

5a) If Yes... have the person requesting the invite automatically send their spec in a non-specific group LFG Message. Just "Tank LFG" type message like we get from the Right-Click Menu.

4b) If No... "{rt3} Groupie : You should get Groupie -- it's on CurseForge. It will automatically send your role, spec, and gear summary along with your Request to Join Group messages. What role and spec are you?

In Character Options

Both ON by default.

Maybe we can trigger the message send on this button too...

[Gogo1951]

[Gogo1951]

Doesn't look like there's any sort of dungeon ID in the arguments. But could do a generic LFG message at least.

[Gogo1951]

It works but it's only firing on the first one.

If you get slammed with messages, it only fires the one time.

And like... getting 200 invites in 30 seconds is really common as a tank =P

[Gogo1951]

Needs to fire on this event too.

[Gogo1951]

Also, "What are you?" doesn't seem to be firing back a response when I sent it to someone.

did they have groupie on latest?

[Gogo1951]

I did, I had people send me "What are you?" and it didn't reply to them.

[TannerShmoog]

If they manually sent it its possible they missed a space or something. I only check for the EXACT groupie message at the moment, do we want to change that?

[Gogo1951]

No literally "What are you?" is what we want to look for.

[Gogo1951]

It's sending the "What are you" in response to being invited when you've got an invite pending, that's the message that should fire only when someone requests to join your group.

[Gogo1951]

Also this is firing when I'm not in the LFG Tool at all, on every invite. Needs to just fire when I'm in LFG. Wonder if the even is different enough...

[Gogo1951]

Works good when you're forming a group though! (=

[Gogo1951]

I sent a message, he invited, I sent him a "what's this for?" message... gotta re-work this a bit.

[TannerShmoog]

looks like >1 min had passed. what should we make the timer instead? 5?

[Gogo1951]

Nah, that's fine. User Error.

[TannerShmoog]

Alright, leaving it as 1 min for now then. Can look into increasing the timer if it happens again

didnt see this part.

the event is not different at all but I can likely add a check to see if the player is listed. response to "what are you", should always fire obviously. What about the other two? which or both of "what are you inviting me to" or sending "what are you" should fire regardless of being listed in lfg?

[Gogo1951]

Looks good!
