Make transmogs viewable by other players in the same Party #34

It would be cool to allow friends/other players to see any replaced animations or transmogs that are currently active, and see other player's transmogs in return. I think limiting the "multiplayer" functionality of the plugin to only players within your current Party would be preferable to all players with the plugin enabled seeing eachother's active replacements, as it makes it opt-in per player.

I imagine that any sort of "multiplayer" functionality might be out of scope for the project, and I'm unsure if the official Party plugin can be used to share other plugin's information. But I thought I'd put the request in, in case it was possible.

Cheers

Hmm that would be interesting. I've long thought it would be cool to transmog other players (make your buddies do dumb animations or wear the clown outfit), but I suppose with the party plugin, copying their settings is very possible as well.

Full multiplayer is probably well outside the scope of what I'm willing to do; it's not something I have experience with, as it would require me to run my own web server to share transmog between clients, and it's just not that high on my priority list. Maybe if I finish off my todo list of other plugin stuff do to/fix, it would be cool to get some experience in web communications.

Regardless this is kinda low on my TODO list, but it would be a neat feature.

I'd really appreciate the ability to share transmogrifications and animations via the Party plugin. It's the only feature I feel is currently lacking in this plugin.
