Cooldowns and Dailies are now tracked for all your toons!

Now you know what ones you did THIS year!

TisTheSeason

Ever had a difficult time remembering which toon is ready to do a Holiday event. Things like visiting an InnKeeper every hour for 'Tricked or Treated'. Well I used to struggle with my toons all the time. That is why I wrote 'TisTheSeason', it will track the cooldowns for every toon on your account and provide a tooltip the time remaining for each toon. It also will show you the amount of time remaining for the toon who will be ready first.

TisTheSeason currently works with "Hallow's End", "Winter Veil" and "Love is in the Air" holidays. Only problem is that this version only supports 'English' clients. If anyone want to help with translations I need the localized name of the Harmful buffs 'Tricked or Treated', 'Adored' and 'Mistletoe'. Please send the translations to Support@Rakreo.com.

This addon is also my first attempt at a LDB plugin and as such will need something to display its output. I use TitanPanel, but any LDB compatible addon should work.

Thanks for your interest in this addon and as always please feel free to drop me a line at Support@Rakreo.com. You can also visit our Guild Website http://www.Rakreo.com for the lastest version of this and any other addons I have written.

It now will add the Year to the Achievement Criteria for the Hallow's End Achievements.

Added icons to show what Daily quests have been completed. Pumpkin for 'Smash the Pumpkin', Flame for 'Stop the Fires!' or 'Let The Fires Come!' and a Horse's Head for 'Call the Headless Horseman'

There are now some options that you can change. Use /tts or /tistheseason for a list of options.

Change Log - TisTheSeason

Tis The Season Changelog

2009/10/26 3.2.7 - Changed way we detected the current holiday so it now uses a SpellID instead of the SpellName for the Buff to look for. Thanks ckaotik for the suggestion!

2009/10/24 3.2.6 - Fixed some minor bugs and cleaned up the code. Added a few more Candy Buckets zone translations

2009/10/22 3.2.5 - Added an option to turn the sound ON or OFF. Added the ability to ignore a toon. Use /tts or /tistheseason for more details.

2009/10/22 3.2.4 - Complete rewrite of the Calander code to fix a bug preventing you from seeing your Calaner Events when the addon was running. On a personal note, Wow, I am learning alot about LUA. I keep getting comfused because of background in so many other Languages. The syntax is completely different. Thanks for being patient with me while I learn LUA.

2009/10/22 3.2.0 - Added icons to show what Daily quests have been completed. Pumpkin for 'Smash the Pumpkin', Flame for 'Stop the Fires!' or 'Let The Fires Come!' and a Horse's Head for 'Call the Headless Horseman'

ckaotik A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 7 File comments: 57 Uploads: 3	The buff translations themselves could be easily implemented by using GetSpellInfo(the_spell_id_i_linked_in_my_post_before) ... Still nothing seems to happen in that direction, true. Makes the addon useless for me! Side note: When having TisTheSeason active, my ingame calendar won't show any non-blizzard events, i.e. raids and the likes. Sucks big time.

On most of my characters it picks up the buff and shows that it located it, printing it out in the chat screen two times and recording a nice fresh timer. However, on some of my characters, it now simply says once in the chat frame that it can't locate the buff Tricked or Treated and appears to stop looking for one. For those characters it keeps the "Ready" tag and won't give me a nice fresh timer, even though I have the buff and have just trick or treated. In case you're wondering how often this happens, 3 out of 10 characters that I trick or treated with today, for example, I could not get a fresh timer and it kept saying "Ready." __________________ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Tales and adventures are the shadow truths that will endure when mere facts are dust and ashes and forgotten." ~ Neil Gaiman Shadowjade of Kirin Tor ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Last edited by Shadowjade : 10-23-2009 at 11:35 PM.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: LibDataBroker

I use the API UnitDebuff() to check for a buff. That API uses UnitId as the toon to check. I can not see toons that are not logged in.

As a side note there is a problem with the expirationTime that is returned from UnitDebuff(). the time it returns is based on GetTime() which is the number of seconds you computer has been running. That means if you reboot my calculations are messed up. You will have to log into each toon once to correct the timestamps. I have corrected this bug as of 3.2.6 which will be released later today.

This is what my LUA file had in that area:

-------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------
-- Check to see if we currently have a Seasonal Buff --
-------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------
local function CheckBuffs()
-- Make sure we have a real Buff to look for
if BuffToWatch then
-- Query the details of the current Buff for the Buff's Type
local name, _, _, _, _, _, expirationTime = UnitDebuff(player, BuffToWatch);
-- If a 'name' was found then the need to process it further
if name then
-- Record this Buff and Expiration Time in the Players database
TisTheSeasonDB['Realm'][realm][player]['Buff'][BuffToWatch] = expirationTime;
end;
end;
end;

hehe - I think he (I assume 'he') meant for you to copy the code OVER the code you have in yours. He added some lines of code that will show a message ingame if it's found the buff or not and that's what he wants to know.

I am using the API function UnitDebuff() to check for a HARMFUL buff called 'Tricked or Treated'. Could you have an addon that modifies the way Buffs are seen or possibly hides them?

If you are comfortable with modifing LUA files then find the section that looks like this and replace it with this version. Then let me know what it says so I can fix it.

My contact info, including my cell number are on our Guild website,http://www.Rakreo.com under the "Guildies" page. I am Rakreo, the GM of Dragon Slayers of Duskwood. Feel free to call me and I will try and find out why it is messing up.

Code:

-------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------
-- Check to see if we currently have a Seasonal Buff --
-------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------
local function CheckBuffs()
	-- Make sure we have a real Buff to look for
	if BuffToWatch then
		print('Checking to see if the player has the Buff '..BuffToWatch);
		-- Query the details of the current Buff for the Buff's Type
		local name, _, _, _, _, _, expirationTime = UnitDebuff(player, BuffToWatch);
		-- If a 'name' was found then the need to process it further
		if name then
			print('Found the Buff '..name..' that expires in '..(expirationTime - GetTime())..' seconds');
			-- Record this Buff and Expiration Time in the Players database
			TisTheSeasonDB['Realm'][realm][player]['Buff'][BuffToWatch] = expirationTime;
		else
			print('Could not locate the Buff '..BuffToWatch);
		end;
	else
		print('I am missing a BuffToWatch');
	end;
end;

Buff not registering...

Are you using an English Client? Currently TisTheSeason will only support an English Client. I am working on translations today.

Titan Panel also works -- you just right click on an empty space on Titan Panel and then hover over "Information" and click on the words TisTheSeason to make it show up.
