I have a suggestion for the cooldown bars: once the Hunter casts it, have the bar turn one color. Then, once all the charges are used up, have it turn another color. This would be a good way to show that its OK for the next Hunter in line to use his MD.

or.. just not bcast the bar until all the charges are used up.
Thanks for the addon
I will have a look at the german translation when I finished my diploma thesis.
Thanks, I've tried to fill in the deDE translations to the best that my high school German classes would let me, so they probably have terrible grammar.
Ah, that is my plan for the trap addon, maybe not the big announcements like with SimpleMD, but at least communication between users of the addon. I will likely start coding this new addon over the weekend.
Starinnia. Have you had an opportunity to start on this lil puppy?
Added my GoogleCode page to the original post. You can see my other projects, download beta versions I haven't released to the wowace SVN (sometimes) and submit bug reports. Please note that you can still do bug reports and feature requests here, or there. I have no preference.
SML support is in a closed Beta I'm testing now. However, because of the CandyBar-2.0 usage, only textures are supported. (CandyBar-2.0 doesn't seem to have a method to set the font, just the font size :()
Also working on allowing permanent bars for those of us that miss SimpleTranq.
Yesterday I committed the change that allows for static bars and full texture and font customization. Coming soon will be the ability to position the text on the bars where you want it.
To make the bars static:
(Dewdrop Path)
SimpleMD --> Bars --> Static Bars
(CLI)
/smd bars stay
To mimic SimpleTranq style:
First set the bars to be static, then set them to fill in reverse.
(Dewdrop)
SimpleMD --> Bars --> Reverse
(CLI)
/smd bars reverse
Enjoy and please let me know of any bugs encountered with the new timer code. Thanks!
Didn't see any obvious bugs or errors with the newest build. Having static bars makes a pretty big difference imo. Its much easier to tell the status of them at a glance.
Any chance of eventually having the bars auto-update themselves?
-For instance if you have the bars on static, Hunters who leave the raid will have their bar removed, and Hunters who join will have it added.
-Removing Test Bars after a period of time when used in static mode.
-And when switching between static and non-static mode, having the bars update accordingly immediately.
-Allowing bars to me rearranged and synced with other users, to create MD orders. Possibly allowing this to be restricted to leader/assist.

Just found your great addon and was wondering if other classes can use the bars too. e.g. it would be good for raid leaders to see how many MDs are ready. Would it suffice to just comment out the line that limits the addon only loading for hunters?
I have a problem with the spanish localization (that I made for this addon), although the gain string works perfectly (["<player> cast Misdirection on <target>"] = "<player> lanza Redirecci\195\179n en <target>",) the faded string doesnt activate the message (["Misdirection fades from <target>"] = "Redirecci\195\179n desaparece de <target>",)
And I am sure it is right, because I have logged combats, a lot of them, being in party, raid and alone.

What can be the reason to not be working?
Two things come to mind immediately.
1) Check to make sure you have the addon set to show the faded message (/smd broadcast showfade)
2) The translation for ["Misdirection fades from you."] = "Redirecci\195\179n desparece de ti.", might not be correct, I remember for the DEde translation the combat log line was slightly different from the message.

Thank you very much, the addon has made a great impression with my class leader and is now a requirement for our raiding hunters! Awesome job =)

Most parts are good to understand while other parts need "improvements" ;)

1) Maybe
2) Yes
