[DLL]WotLK Teleport NPC

[SectorSeven]

SectorSeven's WotLK Teleport NPC
Based off the Global NPC

This is a basic TeleportNPC, its actually based off of Gastric's GlobalNPC with some modifications. I will continue to add locations as they are discovered and stable. You can request me to add a spot. To do this, please provide the name, coordinates, and screenshot of the area. I will be updating this daily with new versions. Also, in the picture you can only see Horde locations. This is because you can only see the teleports for your alliance.

Sorry to hijack your thread with this post, but I feel it pertains to the topic. Understand that I appreciate your teleport npc, but I think there is a better way. **I can delete this and post in a new topic if you want to maintain your thread normally.**

Instead of users submitting locations for you to put into your confusing [for non-coders] code, how about you use this very simple warp NPC code that anyone can edit?

It's a working 4 level menu made in LUA. All you do is change the location name and the coordinates, keeping the brackets intact. And if you want more sublevels you can just follow the format.

It's a much more optimized code, and 10x easier to read. Not that I don't appreciate your code, I just find this one better.

Here's your NPC using that code: http://pastebin.com/m30eb688

Though it is not perfect, I was just doing it to prove a point. It should work however. If you want the fancy stuff you have to do that on your own... I don't know how. But even for me doing that was easy.

I spent longer writing this post than the script.
It took me about 5 minutes to change / add menu names. Then it took about 15 minutes to add the coordinates, which is also taking into effect that I have dyslexia. I am a beginner coder, and it took me 20 minutes to make your script [in a more basic form, but that's only due to my own limitations] using Oxin's UniversalTeleNPC script.

I recommend using this script not only because it is easier to edit / read, but also because it is more optimized and runs considerably faster.

Quote from the OpenAscent thread:

Instructions:
*The variable 'menunum' refers to the gossip menu id range it will use. It will use anywhere from 'menunum' to 'menunum' minus the number of elements in the 'menu' table. Ex: 33310 to 33289. This number will need changed if you use more than one copy of this script.
*The variable 'menuicon' is the icon used to show submenus. 4 is a gear.
*The variable 'teleicon' is the icon used for the teleport options. 2 is a wing.
*The table 'menu' is where you'll edit the submenus and teleport coords. The script should tolerate any number of menu options in any order. You can also have any number of submenus of the main menu but you can't have a submenu within a submenu.
*You'll need to change 200000 in the RegisterGossipEvent's at the bottom of the script to the entry id of the npc you want to use.
*If you want to run more than one copy, you'll also have to replace all occurances of 'TeleNPC_' with 'YourNpcsName_'

I would say c++ script are more stable, more trusthworty then lua scripts.

And if you are going to post that, make your own thread.

LUA is more lightweight, and theres still some crash problems associated with the LUA WotLK Teleporter
