MalygosCP  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.3d
by: Orgo [More]

This is a little add-on I wrote for my guild; it keeps track of the Energy, combo points and the Engulf in Flames on Malygos.

Slash command:

/MCP, it will allow you to move the frame around, use the command again to lock the frame in place.

UPDATES:

-I just uploaded it as a .zip file.

-I fixed a bug where the stacks of Engulf in Flames sometimes were not resetting after a wipe.

-It will now work in any client with a different language.

-The frame will now only appear if you are in a Wyrmrest Skytalon (the dragon in the fight and the quest in Coldarra), it won’t appear in any other kind of vehicles.

-You can now move the frame correctly when you use the /command, it won’t disappear instantly.

-Now the "time remaining" will update correctly depending on how many combo points did you spend in the Engulf in Flames. Also it won’t refresh the timer if the time remaining in the stacks is longer than the new buff if you use less combo points. (Thanks to Kubax for this fix).

-I reduced the size of the texts and reorganized it, and added a status bar. it will now show:

Combo Points:
Energy:
Engulf in Flames Stacks:

And a Status bar with the time remaining on the stacks.


If you have any problem with the add-on, send me a PM.

Thanks.

Orgo

German Translation & Bug fixes

Hi there,

i've decided to translate your addon to my locale (German) and foundout that there is a litle "Bug" (I'm sure it was intended to work like this...).

You assume that everyone got's 3 Combopoints when casting the Debuff.
I've decided this will cause rumors in my guild like "But my addon said that it will tick even 12 sec. more!!!"...
So i've decided to change that.. Now the addon sets the timer according to the combopoints. ((combopoints -1) * 4)+6

According to that, if you cast the debuff with only one combopoint the timer start with 6 (and not 14 like your version does).. and with 22 if you got 5 combopoints.

Finaly the last fix is, when you cast the debuff, and only got 1 combopoint but having 15 seconds left, the timer doesn't get resetted to 6 (cause game does neither)..

One thing left is that the timer isn't 100% accurat.. (after counting from 22 backwards it's at 8 secconds when 12 secconds shown by blizzard ui..)
but i think this is accaptable...

you can download iton my server
http://download.arvenenaske.de/MalygosCP.rar

p.s.:
Sorry for my crapy programming.. it's my first time in Lua...
and...
Sorry for my horible english... 20 goto locale...

Thanks you for the input, yes we were doing 3 combo points per debuff in our strat thats why i did it that way, i was going to fix that later today.

Finaly the last fix is, when you cast the debuff, and only got 1 combopoint but having 15 seconds left, the timer doesn't get resetted to 6 (cause game does neither)
I didnt knew about this =P.

Il check the timer it shoulnt be off.

I want to thanks you for spending time in the addon, im sorry about the mess in the code, i did it in such a hurry and didnt even had time to organize it, there are some random variables and stuff.

I will correct all of this later today, if is ok by you i would like to include your fixes and add your name to the credits.

Thanks you.

Ok, thought that allready, 'cause it's the normal way to do ^^

you're not the only one, who didn't knew that ^^
I've only found it when i was trying to find out if the time is right...

The hardest thing was to figour out the spanish variables xD

That's why i posted this comment feel free to integrate it to your version, and / or change it.

greets,

Kubax

Thanks you again , haha sorry about the spanish variables =P. i already updated it with some fixes (including yours), feel free to check it out, there were some other bugs that you may want to get fix too xD.

I liked a lot the way you fixed the timer, i was going to do it using the times that the tooltip shows and just add it directly to a vector or something, but you figure out the way to calculate the times using the combo points, very nice =).

Again thanks for your help and input.

Is there anyway to get it to flash or play a sound when you get targeted.

You mean for the Surge of Power?, DBM does it, and im guessing that bigwigs does it too, i didnt include it because usually ppl have a boss mod installed and those include that kind of warning.

Ill include it if you feel its nesesary, but i recomend you to install a boss mod, not only for that fight, they are very helpful in general, try Deadly Boss Mod.

I understand that DBM and BW does this but as of late with what ever Blizzard is doing to the servers, this fight has a lot of lag and your mod has a much smaller foot print then DBM and BW.

Its ok - just an idea.

Thank you for your time

range check

Could you please add a range check as well. Don`t know about others, but I somehow end up out of range pretty often and lose my stack.

Does this also work for the daily?

Does this addon also work for the daily quest Aces High! in Coldarra? http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=13414
That quest seems to be a practice school for learning how to perform the necessary tasks in the Malygos raid.
