Angele Dei - tank rotation helper  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.1.1
by: merlecorey [More]

Version 1.1.1 is here. Minor bug fixes, some documentation change, and... oh, right. One major addition listed below. This version is even more experimental than the last one (and that means new and exciting bugs).

v1.1.1 release notes:

  • Support for Druid tank rotations.
  • Minor bug fixes.

If you come up with a better Bear rotation than what I have right now, please post them in the comments. I'll try to include it in the next maintenance release.

- - - -

If you are a current user of Angele Dei version 1.0.x, I strongly recommend deleting the old files before installing 1.1.x. The addon files are located under <wowdirectory>\Interface\AddOns\AngeleDei. Also, please note that all 1.0.x configuration settings will be lost once you install 1.1.x.

- - - -

A few documentation files are available in the doc directory:
  • getting started.txt - read this if you haven't used Angele Dei before
  • faq.txt - a list of frequently asked questions
  • config.txt - a more or less detailed documentation of configuration options
  • rotations.txt - description of pre-defined rotations for intermediate and advanced users
  • editor.txt - rotation editor documentations for advanced users

v1.1.1 release notes:
  • Minor bugfixes.
  • New and exciting bugs that I haven't managed to find and eliminate yet.
  • Support for Bear tank rotations.

- - - -

One of the major problems with version 1.0.x was that it was very difficult (if not impossible) to make changes to my rotations without breaking anything. This was one of the major reasons why I couldn't switch to the new rotations when patch 4.1 was released. So, I went ahead and re-wrote the simulation code from scratch to make it more maintainable and less fragile. It also allowed me to introduce some other features people might find useful.

v1.1.0 release notes:
  • A complete rewrite of the simulation core. Hopefully this one will be more stable than the original code.
  • Rotations have been updated for patch 4.2.
  • Three single-target rotations and two AoE rotations to choose from.
  • A few usability improvements.
  • User-configurable rotations are now supported.

Correct. On the to-do list, haven't had a chance to code it yet.

I was seeing a ton of lua errors, once I turned that on in Interface/Help.

To fix this, I changed two lines of code:

In spellinfo.lua (line 60) I removed "glyphLocation" from the list of locals

In AngeleDei.lua (line 237) I changed
if (x.blinkStart) then
to
if (x) and (x.blinkStart) then

Not sure about the overall validity of those changes (this is my first foray into lua), but the add-on seems to work properly now. HTH.

P.S. Thanks, merlecorey, for this sanity-saving add-on =).

Huh. Thanks for the heads-up, I'll look into it. Haven't had a chance to try my own addon on live yet. /shame Hopefully I'll get around to it this weekend...

Been using this addon for a couple of days and it's been a great help in nailing something approximating a tanking rotation...tyvm!

Nitpick on asthetic grounds tho. Is there any way to scale the icons down a bit. I prefer to have as much screen real estate as possible just on principle and the graphic for this is positively huge ;p. I was keeping it at the top of my screen as close to centered as possible but had to move it over in ICC tonight as it tends to cover some of DBMs announcements.

Over all it's a great addon.

Huge? Hmmmm. Scaling it wouldn't be difficult, I just never had a feeling it looked large.

No problem, though. I'll see if I can do it without too much effort.

I am planning to put more time into this addon over the weekend. Fix some of the weird bugs that other people have been experiencing, add an AOE rotation and perhaps something else, too.

While this addon is real nice for helping with the rotation, it tends to jump the gun on shield of the righteous a lot for some reason, suggesting it when I'm not a full HPP and don't have Sacred Duty, or occasionally suggesting it when I have no HPP and can't use it.

It will suggest a ShoR if (a) you have 3 HoPo, or (b) you have 1+ HoPo and you don't have your Holy Shield buff active. In other words, it tells you to set up your Holy Shield as quickly as possible before settling into your normal rotation.

I have never seen it suggest a ShoR when you are at zero HoPo. As a matter of fact, the current rotation has code that forbids it. Could you please post specific instructions for reproducing this scenario?

Thanks.

Not seeing the lua errors anymore, btw. Not sure what was going on before, but all seems well now.

Could be because I use an old 19" flatscreen CRT monitor at 1280x1024 res ;p. But if a scaling option could be implemented it would be much appreciated. Right now the icons are 4-5 times larger than what my action bar buttons are and the suggested attack is even bigger. The column with the HPP buttons are at least an inch tall on my screen. Lot of lost screen real estate there. It has been very helpful for nailing down a good high threat tanking rotation tho. Love everything else about it ;D.

Yes. It's in version 0.5: "/ad on" and "/ad off" (or "/ad show" and "/ad hide").
