CoolLine  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 8.0.002
by: totalpackage, Phanx, Uitat

CoolLine is a spell/item cooldown mod that displays icons on a single bar/line to give you an idea of when it will be ready. No statusbar timer and no text timer.

CoolLine is inspired by Forte_Cooldown (a module in the ForteXorcist package). CoolLine is basically a stripped down and standalone version written from scratch. The name comes from putting "cooldown" and "timeline" together (yes, lame).

YouTube Intro

How to Use

  • Change settings - "/coolline" or check Interface Options -> AddOns
  • Change position and size - unlock to make it draggable and resizable
  • Filter/unfilter a spell or item cooldown - "/coolline Spell Item Name Link"
  • Add more fonts/texture - CoolLine uses LibSharedMedia

External Support
  • CoolLine.NewCooldown(name, icon, endtime, isplayer)
    • name - unique string id of the cooldown, used as a look-up id
    • icon - string icon path used to display image on the bar
    • endtime - numerical time when the icon should expire, based on GetTime()
    • isplayer - boolean value used to determine if the icon is colored by spell
  • CoolLine.ClearCooldown(unused, name)

Notes
  • Only one spell/item will be shown in an event that multiple spells/items share the same cooldown (whichever appeared first).
  • By design, icons will often overlap; if you do not like it, this type of cooldown mod is not for you.
  • What you see is what you get. If you like the idea of this mod but want more, I highly suggest checking out ForteXorcist or Ellipsis. I'll most likely ignore requests to make CoolLine more similar to them.
  • CoolLine only does spell/item cooldowns and NOT buff/debuff cooldowns, flight timers, time til enrage, etc; this will NOT change so don't ask.

Recently, I (TotalPackage) had some requests for donation info, so here it is. Do not feel obligated; donations (or lack of) will not determine what features I do or do not implement.

LazyMage! Thanks, it looks great so far. I see that in your repository you were working on an ElvUI wrap. Can that be modded to work with classic?

CoolLine for Wow Classic (1.13)

Hello all,

You can check there for a working Wow Classic version https://github.com/LoneWanderer-GH/CoolLine (branched from the original https://github.com/phanx-wow/CoolLine)

The code is a bit crappy since I just wanted it to work for my character.
The classic/retail build identification may be reworked.

Addon's maintainers' choice to integrate modifications or not. I most probably won't create and maintain the classic branch.
Edit 2019-11-08: Of course, since the CoolLine license is indicated as
All Rights Reserved unless otherwise explicitly stated.
I hope current CoolLine owners/contributors are Ok with the proposal/github branch existence.

Regards.

PS: if anyone already did that job, I could not find it myself, so sorry for duplicate.

Cooline for classic

My dearest friend!
I beg you so much to adapt that super-best addon for wow classic, please!
On private servers I used a handmade version, but it doesnt work for now as the code has changed, so I have neither 1.12 (private servers) version nor retail classic version for use.

Beg you, sir!

CoolLine seems to cause a stutter or FPS lag spike whenever I cast an AOE healing spell that affects a lot of players. It is very obvious when I cast Holy Word: Salvation, or Divine Hymn, or even Holy Nova.

I disabled all my addons and gradually enabled them one by one. That allowed me to narrow it down to this addon specifically. As soon as I disabled CoolLine, the stutter from casting those AOE spells disappeared. As soon as I enabled CoolLine, the stutter/lag returned.

Hope that helps others who have been suffering from this problem. This seems to have started with the BFA expansion, I've been using CoolLine for years and never had this problem until BFA.

Keywords for Google: BFA Holy Word Salvation lag stutter

Can you get me a screenshot of the tooltip when you hover over whichever ability has the cooldown? I want to see if it's using some non-standard text that might indicate some weird special treatment going on behind the scenes.
i absolutely swear that when i posted initially that the spellbook showed a 4.6 sec cooldown. today its this:

Fixed in 8.0.002, probably. I don't know enough about Death Knight mechanics to understand why spells with a rune cost need special treatment, but I updated the list of special checks to remove spells that no longer exist or no longer have a rune cost according to Wowhead.

CoolLine doesn't track any specific spells. It just takes whatever cooldowns your spellbook shows and puts them on a nice bar so you can see them all in one place. If Revive Battle Pets doesn't show up in the spellbook, then it won't show up on CoolLine either.

How to fix DK Death Advance.

It has no rune cost, and has a "regular" cooldown showing in the spellbook - so it should be on there.

If you need more data, please let me know. Thank you for looking after this addon even if you don't play anymore.
So looking at the core.lua file Death Advance spellID48265 is being listed as "Unholy Presence" which is no longer in the game. Below are steps to correct this line and will enable Death Advance on the coolline bar.

Step-1 Download Notepad++ (This will make it 100% easier to locate the line you are looking for.)

Step-2 Open core.lua with notepad++ Rightclick on file and select open with notepad++ ( It should be located in your WOW folder "World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\CoolLine")

Step-3 Hold down CTRL+F this will open up Find menu in notepad++. Copy and Paste this text without the quotations "[GetSpellInfo(48265) or "Unholy Presence"] = 1,". Select Find and this should take you to line 94. Add another 1 to the end of this line before the comma. It should look like this "[GetSpellInfo(48265) or "Unholy Presence"] = 11,".

Step-4 Press Save and close out the file. load wow and test the spell. You should now have the spell loading when on cooldown.

Alternative if this does not work for you just remove line 94 "[GetSpellInfo(48265) or "Unholy Presence"] = 1,"

The steps above is only a band aid.

I may have been over-complicating it by calling it a cooldown for body and soul, which is a talent and as such has no cooldown. as you said, it is a passive result of using an active ability - power word: shield - which according to my spellbook has a 4.6 second cooldown.

Still - that cooldown was showing prior to the gong show that was the pre-patch.

Does that make more sense?

Thanks for anything you can do to make it show up again.

I can't test this because I don't have a priest, but based on what I see on Wowhead, Body and Soul is a passive ability that adds a proc effect to another spell, so there is no spell cooldown to show.

spell CD missing after prepatch

After the great pre-patch of 2018 the spell cooldown for power word: shield/body and soul isn't showing up on the bar. I know its not really a big deal, even I can count to 6 - but it was very convenient.

Any fix?

Thanks in advance

Re: Legion?

Does anything actually need to be updated? I don't actively play WoW anymore, but the last week or so I've been messing around on a trial account to update some addons, and I haven't noticed any misbehavior from CoolLine.

I guess I can post a TOC bump to avoid the "last updated 2 years ago" on the download page...
