[v1.7.0+] Don't Use the Unusable
Posted: Mon Jun 24, 2024 9:50 pm
"You must wear this object to use it!" *blink* …then why did you put a "Use" option in the use-item dialog for that object in the first place, if it was just going to fail immediately? 
Sorry, just one of my minor pet peeves with the game's UI. Which, of course, means it has to go.
Thus a tiny new quickie addon, Don't Use the Unusable, which jumps in just after the use-item dialog finishes building its list of actions and removes the "Use" action if it's going to immediately fail the corresponding check in UseItemMenu:use().
[And I suppose this could go into ZOmnibus or ZOmnibus Lite, but for now I'm considering it a bugfix addon, which means I'm reluctant to do so.]
[Implementation notes:]
