Please ALWAYS mention the needed dependencies/libraries in the addon description in order to find them outside the game properly (within Minion e.g.). Otherweise one would install the addon and ingame it won't work, and one would need to check the addon manager, expand everyathing etc. Thanks Lib3d LibAddonMenu-2.0 Edit: For the SavedVariables, as your addon is new: Please add directly from the start multiple servers for the saved settings! In this line you can achieve this by using GetWorldName() e.g. Lua Code: --Old PlayerRoleIndicator.savedVariables = ZO_SavedVars:NewAccountWide("PlayerRoleIndicatorVars", PlayerRoleIndicator.variableVersion, nil, PlayerRoleIndicator.default) --New PlayerRoleIndicator.savedVariables = ZO_SavedVars:NewAccountWide("PlayerRoleIndicatorVars", PlayerRoleIndicator.variableVersion, nil, PlayerRoleIndicator.default, GetWorldName()) This will add a new subtable "EU Megaserver", or "NA Megaserver" or "PTS" into your SavedVariables table "PlayerRoleIndicatorVars"->"Default" Many many thnaks for supporting this from the start! Edit2: About the x,y,z coordinates: Check HarvestMap addon and LibGPS! The maps got local (map) and global (Aurbis map) coordinates and one needs to convert them to make it work for some map pins or 3d markers. But Zos already announced that the patch after the next patch there will be some Map API function improvements, Last edited by Baertram : 07/08/20 at 02:27 PM.

The saved variables now support multiple servers and the addon description on ESO UI has the required dependencies listed. New to uploading addons so these tips for best practices are very appreciated. No need to thank me for making the addon, I had been siting on this for like 6 months, didn't think that many people would be interested until one of my raid groups asked for it . I'll have a look at harvest map and libGPS tonight, hopefully I can find a solution. Cheers again.

Awesome !

I've been looking for such a feature since I began to play the game.
Your addon is now in my top 3
Thank you for this great job

However, I was also going to make a function for adding custom roles, so it would be possible to add a group member to a role in the party menu so they are easy to identify. An example would be in veteran Kyne's Aegis where you can stack with another dd without killing each other with incoming AoE's, and then have them marked. Could also be if you have to guard someone, so you know where they are even if it breaks, or if a dd is using Alkosh and you wanna know where to throw synergies. Would you perhaps be interested in adding a feature like this?

Hi, glad you like the addon

.

And thank you for the suggestion, will defiantly put it on the list of things to do.
Cant make any promises but the weekend is coming up, and I should be able to get in a solid dev session.
If it all goes well it will be in the addon by Monday.

hey again!

Amazing work! It's exactly as I had hoped it would be. I have only two things that I hope you want to look in to;

First - The only place i noticed it can't register locations correctly is on last boss in Kynes Aegis.

Second - It would be awesome if roles had individual size settings. For now I was mostly thinking that I'd like the group leader icon to be bigger, but i can also think of another few situations that this would be very useful.

Thanks again for taking your time to make this! I've recommended it to everyone i play with and the ones that are using it all love it.

@Moulting_Deity Forum posts: 11 File comments: 4 Uploads: 0	PVP? Is it currently possible to use this in pvp, BGs specifically? There is a bug right now that prevents team member health bars from showing up, makes it harder to know your team's position. If i could use this addon to display markers over their heads that would help. I try adding custom roles but it completely borked my UI, unrelated addons are giving me errors and none of my keybinds are working lol.

Probably too late of a reply now, but yes as far as I know this addon can be used in PvP.

Makes it so easy to track where tanks and healers are, and knowing when to rez, especially cloudrest. I don't know how I could ever go back to playing without this, glad it's still working and hopefully supported into the future.

Saenic Forum posts: 7 File comments: 125 Uploads: 2	Could you please use the abilityId for "Shadow of the Fallen" instead of the name? Because this way it would work for other languages. Currently you are checking for the name which obviously doesn't work for non english. The ability id should be 102271 as you can see for example here https://www.esologs.com/reports/NTjt...ability=102271
