Ara Broker Money

Version: r12

by: Aranarth [More]

This data broker plugin keeps track of your money and displays:

- a simple balance history for: session, today, yesterday, this week (rolling last seven days) and this month (rolling last 30 days);
- a breakdown of the money owned on the server, character by character.

You can right-click this plugin to get access to the config menu. It provides the following functionnalities:

- remove money data from a (possibly deleted) character.
- switch between various display modes.

If you have AddonLoader, this addon will load as delayed.

r12
- Fixed issues where removing a toon or logging a toon unknown from AraBrokerMoney was affecting the balance history.
- Added option "Calendar mode" to switch between "Last 7 days / Last 30 days" and "This week (starting monday) / This month (starting the 1st)".
- Added option "Thousand separator": Space (default), Comma or None.

r11
- Added support for !ClassColors.

r10
- Added optional dependencies: NazScrooge and the buggy DepositBox!.

r9
- Fixed the day to end at midnight for everyone, not only french people (my bad :p).

r8
- Fixed a display mode only used by Kergoth (thank him for the useless update :p)
- No, wait, I also tried to make the day end at midnight, taking daylight saving time into account, for the obsessivly compulsive people outta there.

r7
- Fixed some display modes so that, for exemple, 0c doesn't read as 0g 00s 00c.

r6
- There's now 2 distinct display modes: one for the block and one for the tooltip.

r5
- Fixed an issue where a fresh install of r4 was not setting a default display mode.
- Better implementation of display modes.
- Code tweak.

r4
- Added "this month" (rolling last 30 days) to the balance history.
- Added some display modes.

r3
- Added class coloring. It's not retroactive: you will have to log your alts to get their class color.

r2
- Fixed a rare bug due to a global variable that should have been local (not confirmed).
- Fixed X-Credits in TOC file.
- Added an option to switch between normal and compact display mode.

r1
- Initial release.

It sounds like you're starting to cross the line from "How's my money situation?" to "What's my cash flow over time, starting from Level 1 through today, and normalized for level and server inflation?" Perhaps you should keep the tooltip smaller (e.g. make it a choice to show Calendar Month OR 30 days, not both, and Calendar Week OR 7 days, not both), and have something else that launches a detailed history with pretty charts and stuff.

I presume this logic applies to Week as well... it's rolling 7 days?

Yup. I will look for options that when checked will show:
- Last 30 days
- Calendar month
- Last 7 days
- Calendar week

Because as stated on the info page, "this month" is in fact the rolling last 30 days. It means, from your point of view, that every day is considered the 30th.

EDIT: how would you name the option to toggle between "rolling last 30 days" and "current month" (or whatever the proper way to say it is ) ?

diedemus A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 2 File comments: 9 Uploads: 1	Forgive me if this has been covered, but would it be possible to add the bg marks and honor to the tooltip? Or alternatively can you point me to a broker plugin that does just this? I prefer to use your plugin for money because it does what its supposed to =)

Re: Conflict with another add-on

Originally posted by Braysen
I love the functionality of this add-on! There are others like it, but this has the best customization, especially since it works with Fortress!

I am having a conflict with another add-on, though. (I already posted about this to the other add-on author, so they know about it, too.) Using a type of "savings account" add-on (more details here: http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-a...azscrooge.aspx) I am able to restrict the amount of money shown in my bags. However, this add-on still registers the full amount, not the restricted amount my bags are showing that I have. Is there any way for me to work around this? Or add support for these types of add-ons? (There are only two of these kind of add-ons that I found: the one that I linked, and DepositBox! which isn't working at all right now. I have a comment in with that author as well.)

Thanks for the great work!

I added an optional dependency for NazScrooge, it should work properly now. The one for DepositBox! was already present, but that addon is badly coded and it works only after a /rl.

I've noticed this for a while now. It seems the midnight is relative to something other than the player's or server's local time?
