    Range Reticle  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
    Version: 0.52
    by: Adein [More]
    THIS ADDON IS DEAD DUE TO A CHANGE BY ZENIMAX



    Author: Adein
    Guild: Eternal Defiance

    Range Reticle modifies the targeting reticle to add the distance to the highlighted target in meters. It also displays the name and level/veteran rank of the target above the reticle.

    The color of the reticle changes depending on friend/foe and the range to the target (Out of Range, In Range, In Melee Range).

    All features can be configured in the Settings menu (including colors).

    New range formula! It's still being tested, but so far it seems to be more consistent.

    If you have a feature request or run into a bug, please comment. Also, if you find a zone where the range calculation is wrong (or missing), please let me know!

    If you wish to contribute and are familiar with Lua/Git, please send me a PM.

    Does not work, just gives an error that can't be removed from the screen. Too bad.

    Is this PvP only or does GetMapPlayerPosition("reticleover") work for NPCs too? Cool idea!

    How accurate is this, even for Z index differences? (enemy on a hill) I may borrow your calculations for future ideas.

    Can you save and post a screenshot of the error message?

    It's for either PvE or PvP. The calculation is 2-D only using the Pythagorean Theorem and some map coordinate conversions. GetMapPlayerPosition only returns X, Y, Heading. The accuracy is just ok, based on some quick testing of the range readout and when abilities are allowed to be used. I'm going to see if I can increase it by tweaking the coordinate conversion, but it might be an API/game limitation.

    Dependancy
    The error message Dio mentions is likely the one related to Wykkyd's Framework, upon which this is dependent. Either that is intended and it needs to be detailed (or the libraries packaged) or it is unintentional and you're using code from the framework without realizing it.

    RangeReticle.lua:201: in function 'OnRangeUpdate' : function expected instead of nil

    Re: Dependancy
    Good catch, it was a rounding function. I've changed it to use the built-in math library to eliminate the dependency, and the new version should be available shortly.

    If you get an error with the new 0.31 build, let me know which line number is listed in the error message.

    the range 'appears' to work fine, but according to the reticule, my abilites work at 38m even though they state 28m. When im at the range i can cast, and hit targets, the reticule is colored to show out of range, so its kind of useless at the moment. Ive tested it a bit, and it goes to 0m when im on top of a mob, but for some reason i can cast at 38m. Ive checked, and i have no abilities passive or otherwise to increase my range, so not sure whats going on. Are the metres in game slightly largers than real metres?

    Last update fixed all issues and is working 100% now Thanks for making this wonderful addon.

    Edit: There is one oddity I came across... Butterflies come up as an Ally range XD

    As for the range thing... its working prefectly and is in sync with skill range.

    @Ashar: Are your numbers coming up odd in PvP? Because there is a "boost" to range on all skills and melee while in that zone. So that could cause the skill distance and real distance to not be inline.

    nope, not pvp, dont do pvp at all actually, just out in the world. Currently playing in eastwatch and every mob i can attack at 38m with spells. Is it just me, can anyone else attack at 38m? If i could manually alter the ranges for the mod, it wouldnt be so bad, but as it it, its pointless.

    All my spells are working at the standard 28m (nightblade here), and the melee are connecting correctly too (2hd skills).

    I am really not sure why it seems its off by 10m for you =/

    Range only for enemies?
    Could you add an option in the menu to only show the range for enemy mobs (both hostile and neutral)? I only ever really need to know how far something is for combat and it gets distracting in towns or when gathering.

    Another minor suggestion, an option to have just the number and 'm' in the range meter change to a color when out of range and to another color when in melee range. The whole reticle changing is too distracting.

    Thanks and excellent job!

    Look around in the options, everything you asked is already possible Just use the toggles (on/off)
