    Personal Sentry  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

    Version: 1.54b
    by: Rexxa [More]

    What does Personal Sentry do?

    Short answer:

    It creates a popup menu of Players/NPC's by using your combat log, mouse-over, and/or minimap. You can 'left-click' the buttons to target or 'right-click' to target AND announce their position to a specified channel.

    More detailed answer:

    By using 'Sentry Mode' you will get enemy player targets to appear on the popup automatically if they do anything near enough to you that your combat log reports it. Also, the popup does more than just allow you to target and announce things. It can keep track of targets over time and adjust the background color fade to let you know which is more recently active (darker is higher priority). It removes dead targets (optional) and adds new targets as they appear. It will also update targetted and moused-over targets health (shown by how filled the colored bar is). It can keep track of all damage taken from enemies and you can also add enemy player targets to your own 'Hit List', which will give you extra warning if they appear on your popup.

    Complete FAQ and version history is available here in My Portal

    To change what it detects, just go to the menu (right click the Personal Sentry minimap button), and under the Sentry Settings (on the right-hand side) you'll see "Target Detection Filter" and a drop down menu. Change it to Enemy Players.

    To change the announcement channel, go back to the menu and under General Settings (on the left-hand side) you'll see "Announce Channel" and a drop down menu. Change it to Local Defense.
    Thanks!

    v1.29 is now released! Check My Portal for version changes.

    Yeah, the cities will always pop. Nothing I can really do about that without causing an extreme resource usage by comparing every target to every known city name. =(

    As for the party members, I've got that fixed in this release. =)

    Would be kind of cool if when it detects an enemy player it could send a message to the local defense channel about the enemy player.
    The filter mode in v1.27 was slightly broken which caused it to sometimes show everything regardless of the settings. This is now fixed in v1.28 which I just released. Sorry about that!

    Also, there is an option to automatically announce enemy players on the options menu. Turn that on and set your announce channel to Local Defense to get the results you asked for. =)

    You can do that. It's all in the menu.

    Probably Combar Log and Add-On Combat Lockdown run differently in Arena matches? IDK...
    Ah, well it's entirely possible that Arena's do something odd as I've rarely been in Arena matches myself. I'll have to get in a few this weekend and see what might be causing the problem. Thanks!

    I'll keep checking but I'm guessing that there might be a conflict with another addon. Are you using SW_Stats? If so you need to disable the FixLogStrings part of the addon or you'll get duplicate names and targetting gets all gummed up.

    If you've recently started using another addon try disbaling it and see if that solves the problem. If it does, then please let me knwo the addon name so I can see what can be done to prevent this in the future. Thanks!
