Price Tracker Updated  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 2.6.3
by: Garkin, uladz
Updated version of Barvazon's Price Tracker.

Description:

General Info
Price Tracker is a simple addon that scans all your guild stores and tracks items and their prices. It then calculates and shows a suggested price on the item tooltip, as well as the minimum and maximum prices and the number of times the item was seen in the stores.

The suggested price can be calculated in several ways (which can be selected in the settings menu):
  • Average: Simple sum of all prices divided by total number of items.
  • Median: The price value for which half of the items cost more and half cost less.
  • Most Frequently Used: The most common price value.
  • Weighted average: (default) The average price of all items which takes in account "Time Value Of Gold". The latest data gets a weighting of X, where X is the number of days the data covers, thus making newest data worth more. Formula is adapted from Khaibit's Shopkeeper.

How to Use:
Initially, all the guild stores have to be inspected in order for the addon to work properly. Simply go to a banker, open the Guild Store menu and click on the 'Scan Prices' button on the left-hand side. This will take a while, depending on how many guild stores are available, and how many items are listed in each guild store. During the scanning process, the 'Scan Prices' button will be disabled. It will be reenabled once all the guild stores have been scanned.

After that, simply select an item in your bag, and if the item is listed in a guild store, it will show the suggested price.

Updating Prices
Occasionally, click on the 'Scan Prices' button again to update the price list with newly listed items.

GitHub repository
Price Tracker is now on GitHub, join us for development, maintenance, and bug fixing!

How to report a bug?
  • The best would be to file an issue on github because this is where all the action happens. One wau or another all reported issues will end up there.
  • Another option is to post a comment on the addon comments page. I monitor the page and will get a notification once you post something there.
  • And of course you can send me PM @uladz. You have any questions, issue, suggestions - don't hesitate to reach me out.

Changes in "Updated" version:
  • Updated LibAddonMenu-2.0 (r16)
  • Updated LibStub (r2)
  • Moved "Scan Price" button so it will not interfere with AwesomeGuildStore (this is used from Price Tracker (revised by) Draconeran)
  • Improved tooltip format
  • Changed Weighted Average formula to put more weight on recent prices (formula is adapted from from Khaibit's Shopkeeper)
  • Added simple Average formula
  • Fixed code for Most Frequently Used formula
  • Added slider to choose how long you want keep prices in history (default value is 60 days)
  • Fixed OnLinkClicked handler
  • Added tooltip information to slottable items list (ZO_QuickSlotListcontents)
  • Added tooltip information to charge/enchant/research item lists (ZO_ListDialog?ListContents)
  • Removed debug message for quest items (ZO_PlayerInventoryQuestContents)
  • Slash command /clean now accepts argument "days", if argument is not specified, default value is 30. Example: "/clean 60" will remove all prices which are older then 60 days.
  • Addon now checks item quality when searching for matches.
  • Removed redundant entries in saved variables, so it should be 20-25% smaller.
  • Corrected guild name in saved data when using guild trader (kiosk).

I have the addon set to scan all guilds in the addon options. I just made a clean ESO install this week and all the mods were fresh installed as well, so Im pretty sure its not a savedvariables problem.

Im using it along with AwesomeGuildStore and GSSE (which, by the way, does exactly the same).
each guild has multiple pages - ESO only allows you 100 items per page

it has to go page by page - no way around it

Actually I take that back - I think it's the same for Price Tracker Updated - if you are just looking to get prices for "Woodworking items" then install Awesome Guild Store -- use the filters - set it to just search "wooodworking items" - then do 1 MANUAL search on AGS -- after that start the retrieve -- it goes MUCH faster in GSSEx and I believe Price Tracker Updated too :-)

but the trade off for speed is you are only getting "woodworking items" --- for me thats usually fine since I do different professions at different times.

I think Im not explaining myself well enough. I know it scans page by page, the problem is it scans the same guild (all pages) over and over.

It goes guild1, page1, page2, page3... pageZ.
Then it goes again with guild1 (it doesnt change guilds), page1, page2, page3, page4....
guild1, page1, page2....

It scans the same guild (Im in two at the moment) over and over again.

Any idea? Am I doing something wrong?

Ok I will try to re-create the issue but I think I already know the mix-up!


are you using Awesome Guild Store (might happen even without it)

do you know these wont match?



only the bottom one changes - they get out of sync

when it's done - reset it using either the top or bottom one

Mine worked just fine - took a while but I got everything from every guild. 100% perfect


Garkin if I could make a suggestion - can you put an [guildname, page name] info box somewhere on the screen to keep the user updated?


ok now let me help you love this and GSSEx even more (thanks to Awesome Guild Store)

Now REMEMBER the trick I said - I put 1 filter in AGS - then did 1 manual Start Search - when that was done I did Scan Prices.



1 minute scan - got only Alchemy mats! Works with GSSEx too! best happy accidents ever!

So with Awesome Guild Store you have filters for Price Tracker Updated!!!

I hope that helps clear things up and show you just how to make this program even more useful.

I will add support for AwesomeGuildStore guild selector, it should be easy.
But I wonder if I have also disable trade house filters prior to scanning prices, so the Price Tracker will scan all items, not just items matching selected AwesomeGuildStore filters.

Based on just my experience - if you setup a filter in AGS - then manual scan then use Price Tracker Updated

it ONLY scans for the filter you set in AGS --- I reacts exactly as GSSEx does.

if you reset the filters in AGS - your scan does everything.

here is the kicker -- if you setup a filter in AGS and DO NOT do 1 manual scan - both programs PTU and GSSEx ignore the filter and do everything.

Whatever that one manual scan hooks is the key to the filter situation -- which is a GREAT situation!

I am just giving you my experiences, I do not know if that helps with your idea.

More information never hurts.

Edit: just re-read your reply - you aren't going to remove the "happy accident" where PTU DOES use the filters when you want it to? Please don't do that - sometimes (most of the time) you don't want to scan everything.

New Bug - Confirmed 3x

when You are trying to switch from one Guild to another -- I think you need to add a longer delay or not make the error handler just end.

3x I got

then it just quits

for me it's was going from guild 1 to 2

West Cove to East Cov

I confirmed it 3x

I never moves beyond guild 1

Here is a full screen when I finish Guild 1

It never moves on to Guild 2 (I'm assuming its trying to update the Guild Store Names for both programs but that's jamming up the scan)

First off, thank you for updating the many add-ons I use 90% of them!!

I noticed that with the latest update to Pricetracker it searches all my stores which is great but it has my "list in a weird order" what I mean is my guild 1 is at the bottom of the list now and not at the top, not sure if its from this add on or another but I just noticed it after I updated this morning. Not a big deal but something I thought you should know.

Anyway, thanks again for the awesome work


***EDIT***

It was a different add on making this happen going to post in that area now sorry about that

I'm glad someone took this back over

I apologize for starting to take over this add-on and disappearing. I had some major RL stuff happen and stepped away from gaming for a bit. I'm glad Garkin decided it was an important addon to keep alive.

I have found an issue when you join/leave couple of guilds.

Currently addon works for guildId 1 - 5, but when you join or leave a few guild, you can have completely different Ids. For example my guilds are now 5-9. I'm currently testing fixed version and I will upload it in a few minutes.

Thanks for the great addon; it's a big help.

Maybe I am missing something, but what I often want to know is which of my guilds has the highest low price. In other words, if I just look at the lowest prices for an item in each of the guilds, which is highest? My reason is simple greed when selling. Maybe my G3 has the highest HIGH price and is selling jute for 100g per unit, but who is ever going to buy that if the same guild also has jute for 2g per unit? Much better to know the lowest price my G2 is selling jute for is 10g per unit, even if their highest price is only 15g per unit.

Is there a way to find this price that I just missed?
