FastFeet | A Movement Speed Item Addon

https://github.com/mynameisgonz/FastFeet

I've built an addon that will allow you to swap in movement gear if you are moving and swaps back whatever previous item you were wearing prior to movement. Alot of people do this via GS, however I wanted to build an alternative that exists outside of GS for those perhaps not as savvy.

Feedback appreciated.

Does this allow for the moment when you're running and swap in movement speed + gear, but havn't let off of the "forward" direction so your speed does not adjust?

I hope that makes sense.

Example: Normally I have to briefly stop for just a 1/2 second after changing movement speed for the effect to apply. This is most noticeable during the mount acquisition quest when you're dropped under 100% chocobo speed as the raptor tires and needs to be cheered. If you just mash the forward key your raptor won't have the new movement speed applied and will still move at a reduced speed.

I'm sure it's easily verified by the movement speed checking add-on.

This picks up the new movement speed. confirmed it with the targetinfo addon.

What if you are repositioning mid combat?

will flip during the movement and then revert back to combat item. I will add the ability to toggle whether you want it to work in combat or not.

That would be cool, saves from hitting a macro or putting it in an idle set.

This will still be an issue if you toggle auto-run/do a lock-on autorun quickly after beginning movement. A vanilla /follow will function correctly though even if you're starting from stationary. This probably isn't reasonably avoidable, the better solution is user side to just wait a second before turning autorun on.

This addon is a great idea but without a setting to disable it when engaged it's not really usable. Losing your preferred TP gear every time you move isn't a viable trade-off for auto-equipping movement speed gear.

https://github.com/mynameisgonz/FastFeet FastFeet has been updated to include a toggle as well as a few bug fixes. Please read the readme for usage instructions.

Is there a way to delay the gear swap back time? I am seeing that it is swapping back to the previous gear when casting a long spell, and the gear in the spell set is not staying equipped long enough. Example, phalanx or crusade.

Not sure if the developer is still around, but I would recommend adjusting lines 112-114 of FastFeet.lua to only change your equip slot back to the "last" gear only if you are still wearing the fast gear, rather than just not wearing the stored gear. Otherwise, I believe every tick that you stand still, it will continue to try to equip the gear that it stored the last time you started moving, and keep changing back if you swap without moving again.

I cant seem tog et this one to work with schneddick ring +1

Anyone have a version that works with ring movement gear ?

Are you spelling Shneddick properly? There's no c in it

Yeah, those pervys always spell wrong Shneddick with some imaginary c.

yeah sadly it works with Carmine Cuisses but not with the ring.

You'd have to add rings to me.lua, lines 35-49 only consider visible gear:

I've added "ring1" still did not work.

elseif slot == 5 then
return 'body'
elseif slot == 6 then
return 'hands'
elseif slot == 7 then
return 'legs'
elseif slot == 8 then
return 'feet'
elseif slot == 9 then
return 'ring1'

This addon only looks in wardrobes 1-4, is your shneddick ring in wardrobes 5-8?

Also, are you certain that ring1 is slot 9, or that you can assign it an arbitrary slot number?

yes. if i misspelled it the addon will tell me it cant find it



Yup I keep jewelry in Wardrobe 4

I've amend it to check to wardrobe8, but the slot number i'm not sure of.
