Re: Onscreen Toggle Button?
Posted By: lieandswell
...in a 10-man raid, I'd like to toggle the name plates back on without disabling your addon/changing the interface. I suppose I could make an options menu (Interface Options/Addons/DownInFront) where you could tweak what to show in what instances. I wouldn't make an onscreen button, though—kind of goes against the whole "no clutt...

Originally posted by Zobu one thing I can't see is the ability to track Global Cooldown There's a ticket about this feature request over at CurseForge, if you want to leave comments on how you think it should look/act. That said, it's a little out of NTK's current scope to track the GCD specifically, so I'm not sure when/if thi...

I'm working on better ways to move & size the runes. Right now, the priority is to be able to move/size all runes as a single unit. But having more-precise ways of align or size things is also worth looking into. I would like a better way to watch my rune CDs I want to add more timer options, especially having runes fill up wi...

Originally posted by autobot was wondering if you would be will to make or add totally icon based version of need to know instead of bars? That's what TellMeWhen is, basically. They've diverged a bit now, though, and don't have all the same features.

Originally posted by Homi I'd like to setup a CD timer for Death and Decay and Howling Blast. The tricky part for DK's is not only does Blizzard's UI factor in the base CD of the spell but also the time it takes for the required runes to become active, resulting in the timer bar spiking the time remaining as it tries to make it's w...

lieandswell is back in town? :eek: Thanks for all the enthusiasm, guys. I'm glad you find NeedToKnow as useful as I do. Our other rogue started raiding again and I realized I finally needed to fix that "only show when cast by self" problem, heh. I'm looking into an option to have all bars in a group show the same fixed m...

Posted By: lieandswell
I hate seeing gaps between bars when not all of my buffs or debuffs are currently applied. One of the core features of NeedToKnow that the bars always appear in exactly the same on-screen position you set them to and don't move around during combat. For some people, this makes them much easier to keep track of -- you don't have to...

Posted By: lieandswell
Is there a way that you can click on the icon like it is a button? It's something I've thought about, but it'd require a major rewrite of the code. Anything that lets you perform an ability has all sorts of special requirements and limitations. And if this ever did get implemented, the button would be clickable whether it was visi...

Posted By: lieandswell
I'd like to see the time(r) for debuffs from other people DrunkenDonkey is correct: this is possible in WoW 3.0 but not in 2.4. I actually already have this implemented in the WotLK version of NeedToKnow I've been testing on beta, so you should get it as soon as 3.0 hits live. In like two weeks, is my understanding. Also, th...

Posted By: lieandswell
Some of those graphical options are on the to-do list, Lastbreath, but having static bars is (to me) the most important feature of NeedToKnow. I wrote it specifically because all the other buff/debuff mods having moving bars, which I personally find distracting and more difficult to interpret. If you prefer moving bars, there are lot...

Posted By: lieandswell
Future versions of NeedToKnow will not include the reminder icons. They've been spun off into their own separate mod called TellMeWhen, with greatly expanded functionality. Things requested in the comments below that can be done with TellMeWhen include: - show when a mob does not have a specific debuff - show when the player...

Posted By: lieandswell
Thanks for the kind words, kazamx. Tracking debuffs on mobs or other players is much much more complicated than tracking them on yourself. You have to 'figure out' information that Blizzard deliberately witholds from the UI. It involves a whole lot of extra code, making the AddOn bigger and slower. And since there are other A...

Originally posted by Bashui . . . something like this, but that tells me if my target is NOT debuffed with certain debuffs that I can cast. What you're talking about is definitely doable, but it's not in this mod and should probably be a separate mod in itself. Basically it'd be like the cooldown icon bar here, but the icons w...
