CoolLine  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 8.0.002
by: totalpackage, Phanx, Uitat

CoolLine is a spell/item cooldown mod that displays icons on a single bar/line to give you an idea of when it will be ready. No statusbar timer and no text timer.

CoolLine is inspired by Forte_Cooldown (a module in the ForteXorcist package). CoolLine is basically a stripped down and standalone version written from scratch. The name comes from putting "cooldown" and "timeline" together (yes, lame).

YouTube Intro

How to Use

  • Change settings - "/coolline" or check Interface Options -> AddOns
  • Change position and size - unlock to make it draggable and resizable
  • Filter/unfilter a spell or item cooldown - "/coolline Spell Item Name Link"
  • Add more fonts/texture - CoolLine uses LibSharedMedia

External Support
  • CoolLine.NewCooldown(name, icon, endtime, isplayer)
    • name - unique string id of the cooldown, used as a look-up id
    • icon - string icon path used to display image on the bar
    • endtime - numerical time when the icon should expire, based on GetTime()
    • isplayer - boolean value used to determine if the icon is colored by spell
  • CoolLine.ClearCooldown(unused, name)

Notes
  • Only one spell/item will be shown in an event that multiple spells/items share the same cooldown (whichever appeared first).
  • By design, icons will often overlap; if you do not like it, this type of cooldown mod is not for you.
  • What you see is what you get. If you like the idea of this mod but want more, I highly suggest checking out ForteXorcist or Ellipsis. I'll most likely ignore requests to make CoolLine more similar to them.
  • CoolLine only does spell/item cooldowns and NOT buff/debuff cooldowns, flight timers, time til enrage, etc; this will NOT change so don't ask.

Recently, I (TotalPackage) had some requests for donation info, so here it is. Do not feel obligated; donations (or lack of) will not determine what features I do or do not implement.

I'm working on a new UI on the PTR and thought I'd check this out. Although it's working for me on Live, on the PTR I get the error below.

I already fixed it in my local copy. I'm waiting for the PTR to be a bit more finished to release. For now, delete the line with word Hearthstone in it or replace it with this:
Code:
[GetItemInfo(6948) or "Hearthstone"] = true,  -- Hearthstone
Reset the variables for CoolLine and it should work.

Awesome. Thank you. In the interim I've been messing with this in live to replace Cooldown Buttons.

Is there a way to change 'the scale'? For example on my DK, Retadin and to a lesser degree my priest I'd like more emphasis on the <10 second area, maybe having it take up to 50% of the space.

Use the alternatives mentioned in the description if you want to change the time scale.

Love the addon Package, great work. I do have one question. I first started searching for this addon from viewing this person's UI and I wanted to somewhat duplicate it. I have the bar pretty much exact except for 2 things.

http://www.hdimage.org/images/fwbv2c...1309200701.jpg

1. His timers show 0 1 10 30 60 2 5 10.

2. The "spell bar?" from 0 to his spell is black.

I've changed the "My Spell Color" to black and full opacity but, no bar.

Wondering, if there is a way to set the minutes like his? or perhaps even just remove the "m"?

Secondly, is it possible to have the colored bar from the 0 to the spell as he does?

These could have been previous features you've since removed, I'm not sure how old the UI or addon in the picture is but thought it would be worth asking.

Thanks for the help and again, awesome addon. Keep up the great work.

That's Forte. Link is on CoolLine's addon description.

Spells not showing up

All of my spells don't show up from the basic version I DL'd But my trinkets do. I have no error log. What may be the issue?

Disable all mods except CoolLine to check for addon conflicts. If no results, try using it on other classes. Also let me know which language client you are using.

I can confirm the same issue here. In last version I am not getting all CDs as a priest. Dispersion and silence seems to be the most usual ones that do not show although I do get them to show in like 1 in 5 times.

I am sorry that I have not done any research in trying to disabling other addons yet.

I can also confirm the problem with Priest spells, I think it's to do with changing specs. I logged on as a Shadow Priest and all my spells CDs worked fine. When I change to Disc the cooldown for Penance or Power Infusion isn't there (talent abilities) whereas abilities like Mind Blast still work.

Just tested this after today's maintenance and everything worked fine. The patch probably fixed it.

Hey, I was just wondering about the possibilities of having different setups on different characters;
I've changed the .toc-file to SavedVariablesPerCharacter, and I'm guessing I need to change
Code:
	CoolLineDB = CoolLineDB or { }
	db = CoolLineDB
	if db.dbinit ~= 1 then
		db.dbinit = 1
		for k,v in pairs({
And I prolly need to change all the db.somethings?


Or

Perhaps the easiest way to do it is just to edit the coollineDB to have different setups per class..?

Code:
if (unitclass(player)) = "WARRIOR" then
	["bgcolor"] = {
		["a"] = 0.6,
		["b"] = 0,
		["g"] = 0,
		["r"] = 0,
	},
	["border"] = "Blizzard Dialog",
	["statusbar"] = "Blizzard",
	["fontsize"] = 10,
	["block"] = {
		["Hearthstone"] = true,

Feature request

Something to let you know in a stressful situation that the ability you're trying to cast is on CD.

Here's a few examples.

First the original:


Here's one where the icon just flash:


Here's one where the icon pops up:


Here's one where an arrow indicates where the icon is on the time line:


Please add something like the above, it's really the only thing missing. Besides that it's just BRILLIANT!

Interesting idea. I'll look into it.

Changing the toc alone is fine. Just make sure you exit the game and restart afterwards.
