Know-It-All

Version: 1.8

by: pceric [More]

Know-It-All is a NECB clone using the Ace 3 framework. It displays combat timer bars that can track buffs, debuffs, CCs, temporary summons and protection effects and tells you how much time is left.

Know-It-All is still very early in development but quite stable. Many NECB features are implemented such as target and focus tracking, PvP sounds, limited DR tracking, etc.

Know-It-All can be configured from the interface menu or type /kia. See the FAQ.txt for more info.

1.8 - Updated TOC for 3.2
- Added several spells.
- Updated libs.
- No longer destroys your bars when other players of the same class are around. (sorry)

1.7 - Updated spells and glyphs for 3.1.
- Added many new spells and glyphs.
- Added Chinese locale thanks to wowuicn.
- Updated libs.

1.6 - Fix a combo point bug I introduced fixing the the other combo point bug.
- Fully working DR support. Rewrote a large chunk of the code and should now
display CCs taking into account DRs. May still have some wrong DR categories,
the page on wowwiki seems a bit outdated.

1.5 - Start of diminishing returns category support.
- Glyph support for your spells.
- Fix a combo point bug.
- Trying out a different latency calculation (works better on the PTR anyway)
- Some spell updates.

1.4 - Rewrite of parsing code allowing for better spell detection and less CPU usage.
- More WotLK spell updates.
- More config options such as bar width and instance filtering.

1.3 - Updated for patch 3.0.2
- New default bar texture and an option to change it.
- Spell refreshes, such as polymorph, now work correctly.
- Added some spell abbreviations so it doesn't use the whole bar.
- Now places square brackets around the spell name on global spells that you did not cast.
- Various bug fixes.

1.2 - Many optimizations, up to 20x less memory usage.
- Added talent support.
- Various spell fixes and additions.
- Global spell tracking (coordinate fear ward, etc.).
- Limited support for changing bar direction.
- Start of WotLK support.

1.1 - Fix regrowth bug.
- Add combo point tracking for char.
- Doubled number of known spells.
- New options including ability to disable specific bar categories.

1.0 - Initial release

Hopefully all spells should be updated too for WotLK. New version should be out just before WotLK launches. With all these other awesome games being released it's hard to find time.

You rock!

Mind adding support for stackable debuffs, like Fire Vulnerability and Winter's Chill?

Ah, I think I see what's wrong. Will be fixed in next version or you can pull the latest version from the SVN if it bother's you too much. Thanks for the report.

Those are two spells I'd like to see as well but the current state of the combat log makes it difficult. I think it will be fixed in 3.0.2 so I'll be releasing a new version asap.

#16979 is Feral Charge if you're triggering it off of SPELL_CAST_SUCCESS, #45334 is Feral Charge Effect if you're triggering it off of SPELL_AURA_APPLIED or SPELL_AURA_REMOVED you want the latter, instead of the former.

Creating a table every SPELL_AURA_APPLIED if they are humans is generally bad, passing it as something like "destGUID:spellID" then string.splitting it in RemoveDR is better.

Same with SetDR(), if you move drMultiplier right above SetDR() you'll only create the table once instead of on every call.

For CheckForInstance() you should look into http://www.wowwiki.com/API_IsInInstance as thats a more accurate method then checking coords, you don't need to do a 5 second timer either. Personally I use a combination of ZONE_CHANGED_NEW_AREA + PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD, I can't recall if ZCNE fires after PEW when logging in/reloading, don't think so.

Good Luck!

Thanks for the tips. Been banging my head on the whole table thing and why memory goes through the roof. LUA does some wacky stuff. Got my memory usage down almost 20x so I'm pretty happy now.

I've also had time to play with it on the WotLK beta and have started to write some code for it. Big changes to the combat log system again which should make Know-It-All much more accurate but requires a bunch of changes to the code.

I started Know-It-All back when NECB looked dead and have been disappointed with the new one so far. A little competition never hurts.

True

Yes, it will track all stuns done to your target and those around you. There is currently no way to query how many combo points another rogue or druid has so Know It All will just show the lowest duration on KS and Maim.

Seeing as the NECB project was picked up again, what's the reason to use your addon compared to the actual NECB?
