SmartRes2

Version: Release 2.5.5

by: myrroddin, Morgalm

Co-ordinated Party and Raid Wipe Recovery, evolved

Always read the change log!!

New screen shots! Big changes, eh? Just being lazy, but a list of all the changes and feature improvements over the original SmartRes can be found via this link.

=== Features ===

NEW change from LibResComm to LibResInfo
NEW Detects all known items and spells that can raise a player from the dead, and shows you who is casting on whom
NEW bars showing players who have been resurrected but not yet accepted, with timer until the resurrection expires
NEW Mass resurrection bar colour, bar text, and you can even enter a custom message when you cast MR
NEW The Custom Message and input for Random Messages no longer have confusing or obtuse syntax. Their tooltips have been updated
NEW The macro commands, if you do not wish to use the keybindings, have returned and they use "smart" targeting! See below for examples
NEW The Mass Resurection keybind verifies that no units have the RECENTLY_MASS_RESURRECTED debuff
An intelligent auto res key. Press the button and start ressing based certain criteria. See the Q & A
No more "unknown" or blank target names when you click on a corpse with the cursor to res
Random resurrection messages to chat. This can be disabled
Highly configurable res bars. Move, change the texture, and more
Optionally disables itself during combat, saving resources
Clears keybindings during combat allowing you to use Blizzard's keybind screen to use the same binding for something else entirely
Any character class can use SmartRes2 to see the res bars. However, only ressers have keybindings to cast
Uses the Interface... AddOns configuration screen
Plugs into any LibDataBroker-1.1 display
Optionally inform another resser they are casting a duplicate res spell on a player being ressed or waiting to accept
Mass Resurrection keybind option hides and clears itself if the player does not know the spell

Lua Code:

-- macro using Priest spell Resurrection
-- change the spell name accordingly
#showtooltip Resurrection
/click SmartRes2Button

Lua Code:

-- macro for Mass Resurrection
-- this will cast only if there are no units with the RECENTLY_MASS_RESURRECTED debuff
#showtooltip Mass Resurrection
/click SR2MassResButton

There's still more! But you have to use SmartRes2 to find out about the other features!!

=== Questions and Answers ===

Q: How do I get to the options?
A: The slash commands are /sr or /smartres; you can also do /sr test or /smartres test to show the test bars. There is an LDB launcher and you can use the Interface/Addons panel as well.

Q: What do the different coloured bars mean?
A: Green is a non-collision/duplicate cast. Red is a duplicate/collision. Blue is when a target has been ressed, has not yet accepted, and someone tries to res the target again.

Q: Why rewrite the original SmartRes?
A: The original SmartRes has been around a long time. It uses outdated libraries that aren't being patched anymore; the code is a confusing mess; Blizzard introduced some nice APIs that made things easier; Ace3 and libraries that are Ace3 compatible are smaller, more lightweight, and use less CPU and memory; SmartRes had become buggy (wasn't disabling itself in combat, non-ressers couldn't see the res bars, occasionally conflicted with oRA2, and other miscellaneous faults and irritants)

Q: Why SmartRes2, and not a simple macro for ressing?
A: For several reasons, chiefly but not limited to

Because macros cannot tell you the name of released (ghost) characters, and SmartRes2 can
Macros cannot tell you how long it will take for the res to land on the target, and keep track ticking down
SmartRes2 shows you the other out of combat resses being cast by the rest of your Party or Raid
SmartRes2 has an auto res key, which when pressed, resses characters not already being ressed, in range, and visible plus resses in the following, intelligent order preferring highest level characters
1. Healing classes
2. Mages and Warlocks
3. Death Knights and Warriors
4. Hunters and Rogues

Q: How come the auto res and manual res keys don't do anything for battle resses? They aren't working!
A: There are no keybindings for battle resses, and there never will be. Think of it like this: the main tank dies, but you also have a dead Shadow Priest. If I turned on the keybindings during combat, SmartRes2 would always res the Shadow Priest. It is better to pick your res target during combat. The bars are only there to show you which Druid is casting on which target, that's all.

Q: You said in the Known Issues that the Blizzard events don't accurately return a target, but the original SmartRes does. Um, what?
A: Actually, the original SmartRes fakes it, sometimes with the wrong information. While it is possible to be accurate about your own target, getting other players targets is not; the original SmartRes guessed for other players. SmartRes2 is 100% accurate, because it uses LibResInfo, which in turn pulls data directly from the Combat Log.

Q: How do I get more textures for the bars?
A: SharedMedia and SharedMedia-Blizzard <--- changed **NEW** Fonts!!

Q: What? US English?? But I understand other languages. Can I help?
A: YES!! Go here and help contribute. You even get credit directly in the addon!!

=== Known Issues ===

There is a bug in Blizzard's code that sometimes prevents addons from opening straight to their category. Not all users are affected, and there is no fix within the addon itself. However, if you sometimes get SmartRes2 to open properly when typing /sr or /smartres or clicking the LDB launcher, and sometimes it doesn't open properly, you can install this addon which will fix the issue. Do not install this addon unless you are affected by the bug!
It is not possible to retrieve data on characters other than the player if their Accept resurrection is delayed to several rapid deaths in succession. The new bars default to the game's 60 seconds regardless of added delay.

SmartRes2 is a complete rewrite of SmartRes by Maia, Kyahx, Poull, and Myrroddin. This new version is fully Ace3, supporting new, updated libraries and new Blizzard APIs.

Release 2.5.5
- Poke for updated library files, especially LibResInfo-1.0, which addresses a bug

Release 2.5.4
- ToC bump for 5.3
- Update Pledgie link in ToC
- Add LibDataBroker to OptionalDeps in ToC
- Attempt to consume less memory in idle and disabled modes
- Wipe the time out bars (people who haven't accepted resurrection casts) when you drop group

Release 2.5.3
- Collision whispers go to caster, not target, as intended
- Reduce spam for personal and collision Mass Resurrection messages
- Anchors for both res bars and waiting for accept are unlocked by default for new and reset profiles
- Options screen settings' width normalized by locale (should no longer look wonky for English clients)

Release 2.5.2
- Huge French (frFR) update from pascalwar62 (merci!)

Release 2.5.1
- LibResInfo cannot be installed standalone

Release 2.5.0
- Complete rewrite using LibResInfo instead of LibResComm

- NEW FEATURE: Resurrection time out bars: shows bars for players who have been resurrected and not accepted. Disappears when timed out or accepted
- Mass Resurrection has its own bar colour and text
- Mass Resurrection key hides in options if the player does not know the spell
- Mass Resurrection makes sure there are players that can be raised (ie: do not have RECENTLY_MASS_RESURRECTED debuff)
- All spells and items that can be used to raise players now supported. Remember, instant cast spells are INSTANT, and bars will be too short and fast to be seen
- You can set a Mass Resurrection message in options
- Custom Message and Add to Random Messages table syntax simplified and better explained in tool tips
- Both sets of bars properly save their positions when SmartRes2 is enabled and disabled
- Options redesigned to assist non-English locales

Release 2.0.2
- Use Blizzard global strings instead of localization
- Change the class res order

Beta 2.00
- MoP updates /w new events and APIs

Release 1.2.4
- Really fixed this time. Honest!

Release 1.2.3
- LibResComm-1.0 v68 had translation errors from wowace. Fixed in v70
- The above caused SmartRes2 to not load LRC1 properly. New package uses v70

Release 1.2.1
- Don't fade invisible bars (ticket #51 nil error)

Random Res Message removal is now a multi-select dropdown

Auto res key and /sr cast command work on cross-realm players *Note, if installing no-lib strip version, you MUST set LibResComm-1.0 to "alpha" for this to work
Removed unnecessary MultiSelect library folder
Slimmed down some code (thanks, Morgalm)
Will not try to res AFK units if they were normally a priority

Fixed "Print" bug and added an Easter egg.

Beta 2.0
*whew* just read the changelog.txt file. Suffice to say, random res message add and remove to table, font support, cleaned up a lot of code, did some optimizations, re-arranged some options.

re-arrange toc lib listings so AceGUI loads before AceConfig
removed alpha tags for Curse users so new features show up in beta builds

Beta 1.05
Borders added
Localizations updated
Minor code fix for IsCastableSpell()
-- IMPORTANT: discovered that auto res key, /sr cast, /smartres cast will not work on cross-realm players. You must use the manual res key to target their unit frame or corpse. I am looking into possible fixes

Beta 1.04 (Was on Curse, not here, sorry)
Added alpha setting for the res bars

fixed issue with texture setting not saved across logouts
deDE update and ruRU updates
added redundancy check for out of range to also check for unit dead (feedback chat)

Beta 1.01
Cleaned up res bars options tab. Added whisper as a chat output type. Added waiting for accept res bar (orange by default). A couple of code optimizations. Split the code for visible bars and collision chat notification so they are independent of each other.

I have a different problem. I set the options to grow the bars upward, but they dont. The first time I run test bars after selecting the option it seems to work, but further tests run them downward, and the bars in game also grow downward. Is there a bug report forum I should use to report this?

thanks!

Yes, the link in the description called tracker is what you want. In the meantime, I will look into the growth direction and try to replicate your issue.

Reset your profile. Beta 2.02 changed / fixed the way the built in default messages were added to your profile, and is not compatible with the previous saved variables. It can't get the length because "randChatTbl" is empty, hence your problem.

With the fix, new profiles and reset profiles behave the same way, and fill in "randChatTbl" whereas before, if you reset your profile, it would not fill in the data properly.

Now that I've fixed the profiling code, unless something drastic happens to Ace3, nobody should have to go through resetting SmartRes2 again.

Personal issues, coupled with real life stuff are just bogging me down. However, I do not want SmartRes2 left in the dust, especially if Blizzard does something odd that forces an update I am not around to do. Therefore, Morgalm and Torhal have graciously accepted "maintainer" status on this addon. If you have any issues, bugs, or suggestions, then please use the Ticket Tracker, the link is in the description.

Sometimes it works in mixed group when ressing someone from your realm. Sometimes it does not. When conferring with other addon devs, the response was that LRC-1.0 does not support cross-realm players, as it was written before Blizzard put that feature in; the trouble is that adding would force a major version update. LibResComm-1.1 for example.

It is rather frustrating, actually. Realizing the UnitIds are unique, I am looking at solutions in that direction, rather than by simple Unit, as I have it now.

Unfortunately, due to family issues, I cannot commit the time currently (I do have the time, but also way too much stress) to write a modified SmartRes2 and test. However, I will get to it as soon as possible. There are other features I want to add, such as font control and other things, but I'm on minor bug squashing for the next month or two, as that's all I feel like doing.

To add to this... Last night I was in a random Heroic with two guild members and two randoms from another realm. One of my guild members died and when I used my auto-res hotkey, instead of automatically rezzing my guild member, I got the symbol on the pointer and had to manually rezz him. I've not had that happen in any situation in which everyone was from the same realm.

It looks to me like it (LibResComm-1.0) is not just playing nice cross-realm, but also in a mixed group (some from your own realm and some from another). FWIW
