Tim’s Collectibles (1.0)
Hotkeys for collectibles
tldr;
Gives you the ability to set keybinds for your assistants, companions and other tools to summon/dismiss them without needing any sort of menu interaction.
Are you tired of going through your collections to find the light? To load your banker, your merchant or your fence? I was so I found an addon called tralc’s Collectibles and used it for months.
It was great – you could add a hotkey to almost any collectible, and have them summon and unsummon on a key press, and everything was fine. I had keys for my banker, my merchant, my fence etc. I could swap between them with ease.
Then disaster! The game made Cammio the fence available. tralc’s collectibles didn’t know about him, or the utility he brings. It became jarring – I could use my hotkeys for the rest of the staff, but the chicken, he needed special attention and it was a pain.
It doesn’t look like tralce is being updated any more, so I took it on myself to rip it off, and made the following two changes:
1. I added cammio as an option to the assistants section and
2. I made it so that to UNSUMMON an assistant, you have to long press (.5s) the key instead of tapping it. This solved another pain point where if you acidentally pressed the key for the assistant you already had, it would dismiss them instead which doesn’t sound too bad until you realize that that then has to wait for your companion to be resummoned before you can get your guy back again etc.
The rest of the addon is unchanged. Just install it, and then look in the keybinds section for Tim’s collectibles and just assign the keys you want. The addon will go through all possible collectibles (that I know of) and only add a keybind option for the ones you have unlocked. So if you have only one banker, only that one will be available.
