[size=xlarge]BigFishHelper[/size]

I've been working on an add-on to help with the big fish fishing, managing the various windows to get the Ironworks Rod. It's a work in progress, but I have the first release here to at least test the data set of the fish and their windows.

The add-on as is has all the data for growth, including all the xyzh of all the fishing holes.

Ex.

[5] = {
["zoneName"] = "Rogue River";
["mapId"] = "134";
["x"] = -0.5772184134;
["y"] = 42.26242828;
["z"] = 49.83128738;
["h"] = 1.935728192;
["needsStealth"] = false;
["fishIDs"] = "7679";
};

And all the relevant information about the fish

Ex.

[8768] = {
["fishName"] = "Helicoprion";
["fishId"] = 8768;
["holeId"] = 88;
["baitName"] = "Sand Leech";
["baitId"] = 2600;
["isBaitLure"] = false;
["isMooch"] = true;
["moochIds"] = "5035";
["needsFishersIntuition"] = false;
["start"] = 8;
["end"] = 19;
["previousWeather"] = "Overcast;Fog";
["weather"] = "Heatwave";
["minGathering"] = 399;
["skip"] = false;
};


Current functionality

-Gathers weather information from http://en.ff14angler.com/skywatcher/
-Matches time against weather to display a list of the currently fishable fish.

Proposed functionality
-Filtering fish by bait in inventory
-Clicking fish will equip bait and go to the fishing hole
-Automated option for AFK fishing.

HOLY COW, I must try this :)

Does this check what you have already caught? Im already 20 fish deep into the big fish list.

Instal to which folder?

[Iwantall]

I unzipeed it to Lua Mods folder
Lua Mods/Big Fish.

It open fish names, but when i click on any fish, it dont do anything.

Edit: Im a derp, didnt read enough. Filtering via weather works as supposed. Looking forward to see how it works out!

[Iwantall]

So... I only see fish list which i can fish, so it is good to know, but I cant set up it for AFK fishing automatically. I cant click on ffish to select bait and go to hole.
BTW: it dont see which fishes you had before.

But still it is great work.

Yeah it works great so far, not sure if it's going to be possible to filter out fish you already have caught automatically. If not could it be made to allow us to manually add them ?

Also a manual refresh button would be great also.

Edit: An option to disable to refresh would be good also, it kind of pauses my game for a second when it refreshes and i'm not always wanting it refreshing.

[HaltPolis]

it seems to hang for a sec every time it refreshes. had to remove it. since was interferring with fights

Good to know, I might be able to put the update in a coroutine so it doesn't lock up the game.
