And no this isn't a spam throttle kind of request.
The idea is simple:
/whatever to open the window
It filters trade chat for the instances you look for based on keywords. For example ICC.*10|ICC.*25. It could optionally look for words like healer/dps/caster/mage etc to color the ones that look extra interesting.
It could be done in a lot of ways, I imagine a simple window that looks a lot like normal wow chat. Shows max 2-3 lines per person (as some people spam invites with macro's and use multiple lines), and resort instead of "reposting". So that whoever is still spamming ends up on the "new" part of the list.
Stupidly easy to do, I'd do it myself but I don't have the time. And it'd help a LOT. Hell it could even make a "standard" on how trade lfr requests look like, so that the addon could quickly recognize if you can fit in the group or not (aka this group has no caster slots/need only healers etc).
I had a weird issue last night in The Oculus with BT4... Drake abilities worked perfectly fine up until I got the 3rd ability. At that point, none of the abilities on the bar worked at all, even after reloading. Luckily we were able to 4 man the last boss, but I thought I'd bring this up here.
Has anyone else experienced this?
I've had the same problem on several things you possess/mount.
On some I found targeting myself (or my "pet") worked for them, on others it didn't work at all.
Also cooldowns when possessing/mounted on vehicle doesn't seem to work.
Doesn't it make sense to put "Grid2" in a seperate svn dir by now? I imagine nobody's gonna notice if it stays in a branch, and if it's usable at all I imagine a lot of people could switch without the need for most statuses/grid addons. And the decrease in cpu usage looks very very nice.
For example on my dps character all I really need is an overview of the raid, with hp etc, while on my druid I rely on a lot of extra addons.
Yes, switching weapons triggers a GCD. However, if you're casting something with a cast time greater than the GCD and swap a weapon during the cast, the GCD is niftily avoided.
There's another issue since 2.4 though, it seems switching weapons still trigger a "full" GCD, not affected by haste rating, while me casting instant cast spells is affected by haste now.
Yeah, I'll work around it (already have actually), just not a huge fan of hackish solutions :p, but I don't see any clean solution of solving it either.
Thanks. That's not an implementation I like very much though. Checking for mouseover (not cheap by itself) on maybe 100 or more frames every 0.1 second is nasty.
Why would you need to check for mouseover per frame?
OnUpdate could simply be
local mouseLooking = False
local buttonDown = IsMouseButtonDown("ButtonX")
if buttonDown and not mouseLooking then
MouseLookStart()
mouseLooking = True
else if not buttonDown and mouseLooking then
MouseLookStop()
mouseLooking = False
end
That shouldn't be too expensive, considering all frame update handlers and such.
Likely yes. See if you can use your driver software to have the thumb button send a key instead of a mouse-click. That's how I do it with my Logitech MX Revolution mouse.
can't really do that without screwing up my other software :/, I use the thumb button all day.
It still works just fine for me. Are we misunderstanding each other here? How do you test this? What do you expect should happen? And what actually happens? Also, what key did you bind?
I used the key "A" and tested with the default Blizzard unit frames (only player and target frame though, as I didn't have a party). Hover over a unit frame. Press and hold the A key and turn your char. Release the A key and you are back to normal view.
Ah, could be because I use the mouse then? I used my thumb button for it, and that didn't work.
hm, tried it on a new character now. Only things enabled is Ace3 and Mouselook and it still doesn't work. The hotkey works in the world frame and over chat frames, but not over the blizzard frames, and not over the action bars.
That's odd. I tried with both the default Blizzard frames and PitBull. It works fine for both of those. What happens when you try? Maybe you have a conflicting key-binding?
Hm, that is possible, I'll look into it, sorry about that.

Another thing is CC breaking can be quite spammy, any chance to direct it to another chat window/sct maybe?

That shouldn't be needed, most raid frames/unitframes atleast shouldn't have that problem.
Yeah, for action bars it might be annoying,

Very simple, OnUpdate every 0.1 seconds:
It's a hack, but it does work.

Is there no way to hook that with a mouse button?
