MendWatch  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 0.2
by: Polima [More]

MendWatch attempts to track the priest spell Prayer of Mending. A timer bar shows the current target of the Prayer of Mending spell with a countdown of how long the spell will last. When the target gets hit the amount the Prayer of Mending healed for will be shown and the bar will slowly fade away. If the Prayer of Mending jump to a new target a new timer bar
will be shown for the new target.

This is a preliminary release. I'm still working out the details of how to successfully parse the combat log and spell casting mechanics to effectively track Prayer of Mending. For the most part the mod works rather well but does show some inconsistent behaviour sometimes.

There are some configuration details available via the /mendwatch or /mw command. The most important is "/mw anchor" to reposition the location of the timer bars on screen. The remaining options are just some standard candybar details to tailor the visual appearance.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

UPDATE 01/29: I wrote MendWatch during my time on beta, and was happy with its rough state during that time. Now that I've hit 70 on the live servers I plan on resuming development. I should have a new release ready to go in the next few days with some of outstanding issues fixed.

UPDATE 02/05: Finally got around to fixing some of the problems:

1) I've updated all the underlying Ace2 mods. I hope this will solve some of the problems with localization for non-english players, and reports of problems with MendWatch and Chronometer.

2) The bug related to "attempt to concatenate local 'name' (a nil value)" has been fixed.

3) Tracking of pets is now included.

Regarding #1 & #2, I think I can get that done easily enough by adjusting the fade time for the bar. If its set to zero then you'll get your compact mode, if its set to a smaller number then you'll get more along the lines of suggestion #1. I didn't do much experimenting with the fade timing during beta. I'll see what I can do about that in the next release or shortly thereafter.

As far as #3, I agree the way it gets filled is a little strange. I'm somewhat at the mercy of how the underlying CandyBar mod operates in terms of bar placement, filling and removal. I'll have to look at what CandyBar can do for me, or if I can modifiy it slightly. I'd definitely like the filling to happen in the manner you suggest.

Great Mod, soon as I got this spell I was thinking I needed something like this!

feature suggestions only, i havent had any bugs yet

1) ability to reduce how many people are shown - I only really want to see the current and the last person it was on

2) an alternative to my first suggestion - compact mode? just show the current person and what the charge is.

3) Filling mode - have an option to: have the current target stay at the top and fill down on previous targets. this way the current target never moves, easier to find in a heavy fight at a glance

sorry if this doesnt make a whole lot of sense, typing this between pulls in steam vaults =)

once again, great mod and thankyou for the work, its quite helpful for me in the new 5 mans

Odd that it only happens outdoors. Regardless, I see what the problem is and I think I've got it fixed. Will be in place in the next release.

Once again, great mod. Only one of its kind. I only have one complaint. It seems when PoM jumps to a pet, the mod dosent track it.

Thanks
