ThornCraft

ThornCraft was written to solve a simple problem I had as a returning playing. When examining items in my bag I couldn't tell if a given item was used in any of my crafting recipes.

I've have now solved this with a tooltip addition. You can see an example here:



This item is used in two recipes and you can see from the icon that it's a cooking recipe. Also note how the two recipes are color coded.

ThornCraft color codes recipes into four categories

1. Recipes that you have learned.
2. Recipes that you have not learned
3. Recipes that you have learned but will give you no skill gain when crafted.
4. Recipes usefull to an alt

You can configure the colors in the General settings for the Addon:

You can also disable the "(unlearned)" text and enable debug output.

What professions are tracked

By default ThornCraft will configure to only show recipes for crafting skills that you have.

You can override this in the addon options.

Each profession can be disabled (first column) , only show learned recipes (second column) and display recipes for alts ( last column )

The tooltip will also display recipes that are only useful to your alts. This includes learnt and unlearnt recipes but excludes recipes which will not give skill gains for that alt. For example if an alt has leatherworking Light Leather will show unless that alt is so high skilled in leatherworking that no Light Leather recipes can cause skill gain. By default only three alts can be listed here to save UI space, but you can adjust that in the options.

In alt options you can enable and disable displaying alt details in the tooltips altogether. You can also adjust the maximum number of alts listed. You can also enable or disable on an individual basis per alt.
