Smarter AutoLoot
IMPORTANT: The game's built-in AutoLoot must be turned off!
Smarter AutoLoot, or S.A.L., is a completely invisible little assistant that will give you much greater control over your every day looting and pillaging. Turn off the game's AutoLoot, and turn on SAL, set what you want to loot and what you don't, and forget about it. Whenever you loot, SAL will automatically take what you want, and leave the rest behind.
Inspired by AdvancedAutoLooter, Smart AutoLooter works a bit different and focuses solely on managing your looting rather than mailing items and other additional extras. Do one thing and do it well is the motto here!
Usage:- Disable the stock AutoLoot
- Settings->Add-Ons->Smarter AutoLoot and enable the looter.
- Setup your filters as desired.
Whenever SAL detects a loot window, it will automatically take the items you said you care about and ignore the ones you don't. By default it will leave the loot window open if it did not take all the items, allowing you to manually grab those if desired. This also means that if SAL somehow gets his logic mixed up, you can still grab the items he should have grabbed, though hopefully this won't happen. Some other AutoLoot plugins loot everything, then destroy the non-matching items but I think this is dangerous and wasteful.

The Future:
This is an initial version, to get the basics working. I have some plans for more advanced filter logic, but I wanted to get the working base in place. That said, no promises of anything. I made this for me, and I share it for anyone else to use. I promise no support, and no continued development.
Enjoy!
