LogicalGator Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	This is a really useful addon. Thanks for making it! I have 2 requests: 1. Allow displaying the buff name instead of (or in addition to) the icon. I can never remember which icon is which. I don't mind if some buff names have to get cut off b/c they don't fully fit, or use abbreviated versions. 2. Make it possible to turn on the buff displays even when I'm not in a group or dungeon/trial, to allow arranging them. I always have to move the frames after I turn particular buffs on or off, and want to get them ordered a certain way, and I don't like doing that after I'm in a dungeon and the group wants to start (or has already started).

A setting checkbox like "Enable in overland groups too" would be cool, or a slash command which remembers the state.

Or is /btg working for that purpose already (I was not able to test this yet).
I think it is checking some zoneIds in btgData so it might not work.

btw: Innstead of hardcoding the zoneIds why don't you either use LibZones which provides API functions to check if the zone is a trial, dungeon etc., or just use the API functions given like IsPlayerInRaid() or IsUnitInDungeon("player"). IsUnitInDungeon will also return true if in a delve so if you want to one can in addition use the API function GetCurrentZoneDungeonDifficulty(). It will return these values:

Code:

* DUNGEON_DIFFICULTY_NONE
* DUNGEON_DIFFICULTY_NORMAL
* DUNGEON_DIFFICULTY_VETERAN

DUNGEON_DIFFICULTY_NONE -> Delve or pub dungeon
The others: Real dungeon in normal or vet mode

This would strip the whole zoneId checks and the need to update it after each new patch where zones and dungeons are added. Or as I proposed: Use LibZones as it was made for that purpose and is still recently updated.

Another thing:
If you define global variables like btg and btgData you'd better use an uppercase starting character or at best 1 table where all the globals of your addon are connected to, e.g. BTG = {
data = { ... },
}
This makes it easier to find related variables, and to debug stuff.
But imho: btg is way to common/non-unique and short for a global variable! Better use something like

Lua Code:

BuffTheGroup = {}
local btg = BuffTheGroup
local btgData = btg.data

Else your global btg might overwrite any local btg used somewhere else in other addons.

Would it be possible to add new dungeons by ourselves by adding zoneID? hmm I've always wanted to delve into addon making here in ESO but not sure where to look exactly. Back in skyrim/fallout modding, theres lots of tutorials on youtube though.

Hey, thanks for the feedback! That's a good suggestion, but that's past the scope that I want out of this addon.

thats alright of course, I can work with this. I am trying to do some work-around using the savedVars file.
-I logged in on all chars with it enabled.
-cut the saved vars file into another text file using notepad++
-logged in my main toon and opened the savedVars file again
-setup the addon and enabled most buffs that are always good to track whether tank or healer
-saved, logged out.
-copied this char profile on the other text file and on all of em

Also I was wondering. is there no tracking for minor brutality(provided by DK Passive)?

Asphyxis Forum posts: 0 File comments: 51 Uploads: 0	Some Ideas Role order on tracker (Tanks -> Healers -> DDs, or it can be changeable). Also, when we select "show just DDs" option, it overrides it to all buff trackers, I think this setting can be made seperately for each buff tracker (and "just show tank" or "just show healer" option can be added). Changing font type and size would be good.

Ah, think I forgot to update the savedVariable version. You should just be able to reset/delete your savedVariables to fix this. Thanks!
