rFilter 

Ah. Thanks

Amazing addon been looking for something to track my debuffs/buffs and couldent find anything that fit me i am new to Lua (dont know anything but trying to learn) thought i would give this a shot despite the warning ;p and i was able to get everything working and figure out the error messeges and fix it when it did work. Thank You!!!

ive been trying to track RAging blow "Fury warrior" proc. to add it into rfilter3, but its hard to do it because if you add raging blow spellid nothing will happen, cause it opens up whenever you are enrage or have bezerker rage active on you, and if i add thoose spellid it will show the picture of enrage or bezerker rage, I want picture of raging blow to show upon if i'm enrage or better whenever raging blow is clickable, it shows, is that possible? thanks

Thanks a lot, Zork for your great work on this addon and all the Roth UI pack. Danke schön !


EDIT : got it, nvm

Hello zork!

Thank you for this addon! I've got a problem with the config file. It runs smoothly, but it seems it doesn't like Bane of Doom. I've double-checked in-game and the debuff applied is 603, but it won't find it for some strange reason. I've set in the spelllist Bane of Agony, and the addon finds it. This is my debuff configuration, may you please have a look into it?

EDIT: same issue with Curse of the Elements, spell ID 1490... Curse of Weakness works (Curse of Tongues IDK as the target dummy is immune)

P.S.
May you please explain me the buff/debuff option "match_spellid"? I haven't understood it from the docs, since I haven't found any spell name property...

Ahhhh stupid typo! Used to work in C++

Thanks!

hello zork, I tried rfilter the other night to track some cooldowns mainly and it works quite well, however I'd like to have generic configs for classes, but the way you currently handle your 'spec' detection (identifying active spec) you can't really do that.

Lets say I want to track lava burst on all my shaman characters with main elemental spec... right now I can not do that, so I would like to suggest you change all
GetActiveTalentGroup() calls to
GetPrimaryTalentTree(false, false, GetActiveTalentGroup())

in all 3 'check...' functions

This way in config file you'll be able to simply set spec = N, where N would be the desired talent tree number for given class.

Aaaaand we will be able to start building some massive generic config file for all classes/specs

Yeah, obviously you can simply make a list of spells for class, but tracking, let's say, Lava Burst cooldown is critical for elemental spec, but absolutely useless for restoration, that's why determining a spec is a very useful feature to have in the config file imho.

good news

I was working on that add-on a little, trying to modify it to fit my needs and noticed 1 interesting thing... even if nothing goes on it still checks 5 times a second (0.2 timer) for every added icon which produce pretty high CPU usage if you have allot of stuff added there.

OnUpdate is only needed to get our timer working.
So would it make sense to actually go with handling icon updates on per-event basis? i.e. we don't need to always check for cooldowns, we can just start our OnUpdate script for timer once SPELL_UPDATE_COOLDOWN event was fired, same thing with Buffs and Debuffs: we just watch for UNIT_AURA and then start our timer.
