I love this idea, but the interface leaves some to be desired. I would like to see an easy way to find a route outside of where I currently am. For example, I was in Dunland today, and wanted to go to Mirkwood. I could not get the plugin to provide me any routes. Am I missing something?

I've been working hard on adding the milestone data and finally finished. I then updated the main window to allow milestone locations to be set. These locations will then be used by the Find Nearest Start button as long as the Skip Milestones box isn't checked (used when the milestones are in cooldown).

If you want to verify the current milestone settings, enter "/trw ms".

While testing, I found that one of the previous updates had introduced a bug when listing destinations with multiple requirements. This has been fixed.

I got inspired and have already added the Guide/Muster skills to the Find Best Start action. I also made a couple of minor corrections and disabled selecting skills that are beyond a player's level.

Note: when choosing between Return and Guide/Muster skills, the travelling rations cost, induction time and the time to move from the entry point to the stable is included in the calculations. I'm thinking about adding a "Skip Returns" button for cases where the return skill hasn't cooled down yet.

I've started working on adding milestone skills, but I have to visit every stable location and add the milestone level requirement and the time it takes to move from the milestone to the stable.

I've talked with the author about it and he won't support my file structure.

Any chance of adding an LPC (LOTRO Plugin Compendium) configuration file?

see: http://www.lotrointerface.com/downlo...nfo.php?id=663

It would make installation, and especially, update tracking much easier.

Vinny

After much work, I've added a major new feature: when finding the best route, TR can automatically consider starting at locations for which you have a "Return to" skill! These must be configured first in a new window using the "/trw rt" command. Not only will it check all these alternate starting points, it will provide a clickable icon to travel there!

For a full explanation on how to use it, BE SURE TO READ THE DOCUMENTATION, especially the part on the Find Best Start button.

I plan to add support for Hunter and Warden travel skills in future updates and eventually milestone abilities (which will involve a lot of data collection).

PS. If you claim to have a travel skill that you don't and click on the icon for, it will cause a general game error.

PPS. I don't have the Return to Stangard skill on any char yet, so I haven't got the code for the icon implemented yet.

The main changes are in Moria, where 3 new stables were added, all the level minimums were lowered to 45 and several deed requirements were removed.

At Great River locations the level minimums were reduced to 70, so I was able to add the swift travel times.

Vinny

I just finished reading about update 7 and it looks like Moria will be getting some new travel routes. I'll be visiting the test server to check these out.

More details: There are 3 new stables and the minimum level for all locations has been reduced to 45.

Got it to work, thanks

Vinny

When properly extracted, the Plugins\MyPlugins folder should contain:

Common - folder of shared library files
TravelRef.plugin - index file for the plugin
TravelRef - folder containing the plugin

Ferly

I followed instructions in read me, unzip to .........Plugins\MyPlugins
(same as Cate) no Commons folder was auto created by extraction.
It does not see the Commons folder in Plugins.

As for version, I downloaded and installed (attempted) today.
Is the current zip file lacking files? Or instructions in ReadMe file incorrect?

Couldn't you just do some search and replace your paths so this addon would conform to everyone else's that use the Plugin folder?

I copied commons folder to MyPlugins, didn't work.
I copied commons folder to TravRef, didn't work.
Nothing I have tried will make it show up in plugin manager, commands in game either.

Vinny

Does anything show up with Plugin Manager?

Catie

So bummed. I can't get this to load on my account. Does it possible have something to do with the fact that my documents folder is under a user account on my computer? the path I tried was /(useraccount name)/documents/The Lord of the Rings Online/Plugins/MyPlugins. I extracted the files from the zip file and it still will not load. Any suggestions?

Vinny

Oops, it looks like that fix got lost when I switched computers. Thanks for the notice.

Hey Vinny, thanks for the updates on Travel Reference, but I see that you seem to have forgotten to correct the spelling of Aughaire which you still have spelt as Aughaure. If you could correct this in your next update, it would be appreciated. As it stands now, it will not provide a route to Aughaire or any points beyond.

Thanks again and keep up the great work
