I'd like to make two feature requests if at all possible.
Firstly: soulstone timer displays for player target windows. As the unofficial class lead for warlocks in my guild, I found the display of the soulstone timer for other warlocks in the raid quite useful in managing soulstones. While I realize oRA2 is intended to be a memory-light replacement of CTRA, if these timers could be implemented (or re-implemented) into oRA2 I think they would be quite useful. I'm not sure if the original CTRA included them, but I imagine it might also be a good idea to track the timers of other classes, such as ankh ressurect, battle rez, and innervate. If these sorts of timers are actually some of the chief memory hogs that prompted the creation of oRA2, I can understand that it would preferable not to include them.
My secondary request would be manipulation of the player and main tank target frames. Specifically, being able to resize them dynamically (i.e. in game), and possibly an option to allow them to act similar to CTRA's frames. That is, in the case of the main tank frames, there would only be two frames: the main tank's target frame (which displays the selected tank's name when he is not targetting anything) and the main tank's target of target frame. Similarly, the player target frames would have an option to not include the player's target of target frame (or even the player's target, if the individual's only purpose for displaying the player is to track their cooldowns).
My thanks for your consideration of these suggestions.
what are you joking me??
can't add reagent check for GotW3, or CD for pally bubble?
orealy?? what little i know of coding it can be done, just don't broadcast it over the CTRA prefix and just Broadcast it over the oRA2 prefix on the Addon channel.
who really cares if there are a few things that don't match, let CTRA catch up with you guys.
Is it possibly to hook an event when a raid target is set and allow that event to set a target/focus. Specifically what I want to do is to be able to see when a target gets set as circle, say, and have that target automatically become my focus. Typically this would allow me to always have my CC target even when we are chain pulling and I am not left frantically tabbing to find the mob i am meant to CC.
Alternatively if there is a way to do this in macro (i.e. set focus == mob with circle) I would be most grateful if someone could tell me how.
Why don't you create a macro that puts the target icon on a mob and automatically sets it as your focus target?
I use this combo all the time to shackle stuff.
Becuase usually MT sets the targets and indicates which mobs should be shackled, sheeped, etc by choosing teh apporpriate symbols whcih we agree at the start.
So if ORA2 allowed everyone ot set target or focus when "thier" symbol gets set, then setting up pulls will be realyl fast and error free. This would be especially useful when chain pulling trash.
Great mod, but I'm having trouble with the MT/PT frames. When I'm in a raid, and for some reason I get disconnected (or type /reload) the MT/PT frames are hidden when I return to the game. Also the keybindings that I set for MTs won't work from that point.
The problem usually persists, but on rare occasions -say 1 hour after the DC- I sometimes at once get my frames back.
Okay, I have some problems with oRA. It loads ok but when I make a raid as leader I can't see any options at all in my FuBar menu, it sorta looks like I'm missing something? Like an oRA with just the name, not any functions.

make sure it's getting enabled when you join a raid - oRA2 is LoD
I'm running ORA2 and try to updated every few days at least (last updated 11/04/07), but I've had a problem for a while now. The Version check doesn't work properly. A lot of the time it will just show N/A for everyone and when it does show up it'll often miss one or two people. I need to be able to moan at my lazy raid members who havem't bothered to get CTRA or ORA2 but it's difficult when the Version check doesn't work. The same people will respond to my (CT) Ready Checks so it's not that their mod isn't working properly.
i have a small semi-issue: if im invited in the raid with MTs already set up, I cant see MT windows and have to ask raidleader to remake em out of combat

There are 2 ways to fix it:
1. Request Status from the oRA2 menu, your MTs should appear then within 5 seconds or so.
2. Ask your raidleader if he's using oRA2 to Broadcast Maintanks.
Been using oRA2 for some time now together with the associated version of sRaidframes, when I use ver:-r31149 auctioneer loads fine but after downloading the latest ver:-r32173, auctioneer fails to load. When i disable oRA2 - it loads again. Any one else getting this problem or is my bloated addons folder catching up with me :P
many thanks
keep up the good work

I was wondering if it is possible to set player/MT targets in a group, instead of raid.
Sorry if this has been asked before, yes I used search, and I checked half of this thread for info, but wasnt really able to find anything about it.
Thanks in advance

For beginners you could use
which sets your current target as your focus target and puts the orange circle on it.
For more information see http://www.wowwiki.com/API_SetRaidTarget
So if ORA2 allowed everyone ot set target or focus when "thier" symbol gets set, then setting up pulls will be realyl fast and error free. This would be especially useful when chain pulling trash.
Posting the results of the readycheck(Blizzard one though) to the raid chat :)

A bit odd ><

Any ideas?
They're already there but require your paladin to use oRA2 and only oRA2 users can see it.
