Hi! I heard some things about "Autotravel" (f.e. a addon for TitanBar).
Whats this? is it just the "num" key? or an addon that let u travel
f.e. from X-Roads to ratchet? or something different?
(where to get informations about this? dl it?)

If it's what I think it is, there is an addon that allows you to record
keyboard inputs and waypoints on a journey, you can save that as a
route and replay it.
I installed it but couldn't be bothered to set it up and as useful as
it could be, it wont stop you getting attacked on the journey so you
will have to watch yourself run rather than go for a tea and a dearest comrade...

See, it's set up that way to discourage smoking. It's designed for your
health!

And if it *is* that, I understand that the new 1.6 patch will break
it.
Apparently addons can't now move your character (or something like
that) in an attempt to cut down on bots.

It *was* that, and it has been broken. As if botmakers would use an
internal add-on. The only people affected by this breakage are honest
users who've found a way to avoid boredom on long, safe repetetive
runs. No longer can you stretch, get another drink, check your bags,
etc etc. Nope, you've got to keep that ol' W key pressed (or RMB) the
whole way.

When autotravel is outlawed, only outlaws etc etc

And as for the tedious re-running through city streets (how far is the
forge from the bank/AH in Org?), that's back. To compensate, why not
have a system whereby once you've visited a shop once in a city, the
next time you ask a guard it's location you get autotravelled there?

Personally I switch on autorun and just tweek the direction keys every
so often, but each to their own...

Yeah, the next patch will make you run in place to move your character.
Good for the heart
