Lightbulb Alerts flooding in Dragonflight

Hi there Kaemin,

I'm still a big fan of this clean, simple alerter addon. <3 However in Dragonflight, it's getting ridiculously flooded because many new things are used in DF and the addon automatically fires off alert for them too, even if they're completely unrelated for finding rare stuff and/or treasures. Most of them are even static and available all the time.

Most of them are also totally trivial and nothing to do with the rare/chest system so the addon shouldn't alert for them. Here are some new things in the DF Beta I found so far, that the addon alerts on - completely unneeded:
  • <Keeper of Renown> (NPCs) – They're simple reputation vendors of the new DF factions.
  • Rostrum of Transformation (minimap icons) – Static barber shops for new Dragonriding mounts.
  • Bronze Timewalker (NPCs) - Static NPCs for the Dragonriding minigame.
  • Winds of the Isles (minimap icons) – Hurricane objects that offer some help during Dragonriding.
  • <Ferry> (NPCs) – Simple static taxi NPCs between some towers' base and top.
  • High Peak (minimap icons) – Highest peaks of Dragon Isles for a simple collective achievement.

I know alerts for these static, permanent stuff would seem to make some uses in the beginning of the expansion because everything is new to everyone but for that purpose many map-marking addons will be available, various plugins for HandyNotes are good examples.

After all, SimpleVignette is not for making notes/marks on the map for permanent stuff but for alerting players if something rare is up around that usually isn't.

Could you check if you have the ability/mood/time to make this great addon less flooding, please? It would be highly appreciated.

The latest 8.2 PTR changes broke the fire of any of the sound files.

Code:
Message: Interface\AddOns\SimpleVignette\SimpleVignette.lua:99: Usage: PlaySoundFile("soundFile" or soundFileID, optional["SFX","Music","Ambience" or "Master"])
Time: Wed May 29 19:52:22 2019
Count: 8
Stack: Interface\AddOns\SimpleVignette\SimpleVignette.lua:99: Usage: PlaySoundFile("soundFile" or soundFileID, optional["SFX","Music","Ambience" or "Master"])
[C]: in function `PlaySoundFile'
Interface\AddOns\SimpleVignette\SimpleVignette.lua:99: in function `TestSoundClick'
[string "*:OnClick"]:1: in function <[string "*:OnClick"]:1>

Locals: (*temporary) = "Interface\AddOns\SimpleVignette\sounds\woop.mp3"

Updated for 7.0.3, minus some addon options (at least until i take more time to fix it for the Legion full release)

Thanks, fixed this in the latest version update which adds the ability to send output to raid warning or the chat window; however, it won't be uploaded with the fix until I alter the menu with the change.

It looks for a vignette map icon and gathers all the info from it. There is no need to reset your cache in order for it to work. If it shows a vignette icon (skull and crossbones, chest, crossed swords, etc) on your minimap, it will notify you.

This project was the direct result of not paying attention to the mini-map while killing Gulp Frogs, and missing not one, nor even two, but 3 Bufo spawns! As far as "will it warn for the same mob"... the answer is yes, it will. Everytime a vignette icon shows on your minimap, this will gather what info is available (there are no names for rares sent with the trigger, but there are for chests and some other items) and it will warn you visually as a raid warning, as well as play the selected sound. It will also echo in party chat if you have it enabled.
