WhatHappened

Version: 1.0
by: Zlaire [More]

Ever died in 0.2 seconds and wondered what the heck happened? Tried using the "What happened to me?" in the combat log but ended up with sixty lines of "x gains 2 mana from y"?

WhatHappened gives you a fast summary of all the damage and healing on you in your last fight without any other events getting in the way.

It also customizes your resurrection dialogues, among other things it keeps track of who is starting to resurrect you, giving you the time left on the cast and who is doing it.

Usage

Install, fight, and die. WhatHappened will show a summary of the specifics resulting in your death.

WhatHappened comes with a mini-map icon which you can click to always have access to data about your latest death. You can also turn off automatic showing of the info screen and simply click the mini-map icon when you want the info.

For settings type /wh or /whathappened, or right-click the mini-map icon.

What WhatHappened does not do

WhatHappened does not give any information about damage you or any friendly players did. It also does not give information about damage done to friendly players or pets.

It simply registers damage and healing done to you. Nothing more nothing less.

Disclaimer

This addon has been under testing for a few weeks now and there should be no serious problems. However there might be some occassional inconsistencies with recorded data, so I'd appreciate reports on any weird behaviour.

Known issues

There are still some instances where the source name can not be found (I've had it happen on rare occasions on some boss fights). This will be fixed with the next update.

This problem is "cosmetical" (does not effect the functionality of the addon) but can give many error messages. If this happens, for now simply turn off lua-errors in the interface settings (of WoW) and you won't notice it.

I did get this addon to work again by updating the .toc file to the latest version (30300, I believe) and downloading the updated /lib folders from WoWAce - a good portion of which are in the Ace 3 library.

I haven't gotten the error I used to get whenever I'd enter a BC dungeon since I did this. I doubt I'll ever hit them again since I've finished my rep grinds, but it's nice to know it doesn't appear. Now I just have to hit Heigan and see if the other error I used to get pops up during the dance.

Only happens when testing on my druid.

As soon as I find and fix that I'll get the new version out.

I found the problem. It seems I used the name "CombatTextFont" for the text in the combat log.

But that name collides with the internal "CombatTextFont" of WoW, so if you change the size of the combat text in WoW (using some other addon which I assume you've done) you will change the size of WhatHappened's text as well.

I will upload a fix for this shortly.

(if you want to fix it yourself right away you can open the whathappened.xml and replace all CombatTextFont (there should be 4) with something like WhatHappened_CombatTextFont instead and the problem will go away).

Thanks for the report, stuff like this is hard to find when testing yourself.
