Configurable by editing the .lua file.

- Make sure the player names are not set to nil before using them.

r19
- Use the original class name in cases where Babble-Class doesn't recognize it

r17
- Uses Babble-Class-3.0, should work with all locales now.

0.1
- Initial version

I patched core.lua to provide an option to do name colouring like XChat, and a mod named TasteTheNaimbow which is now out of date (ChatFrame_OnEvent issues). Names are hashed into a number and that is used to pick the H value in an HSV colour. That way, a particular name is always coloured the same way and you can learn to spot their colour easily in chat channels. Not everybody's flavour, and possibly less useful in battlegrounds where class info is handy, but I like it.

Here's the patch:

Weird, I still don't see how this would happen, but some of the functions the addon is calling has to return nil.

I've uploaded a new version (r21) that doesn't try to use the name in cases where it's nil, could you try this one and see if that solves the problem?

I'm asking because "name" at this point should never be nil and I don't quite see why this would happen.

Also, does this happen often?

Hm, this would only happen if Babble-Class doesn't recognize the class name. Are you using the English client or some other language?

Either way, I've uploaded a new version that should use the original class name so this shouldn't happen anymore.

Ok, instead of reinventing the wheel I decided to use Babble-Class-3.0, seems the new Ace3 stuff has way less dependencies than the old versions. This should make the class colors work with any locales. I hope at least, still can't test this myself.

I see. I suppose I could look up the class names in german/french etc. and add a a table for each locale that would translate the localized class name to the english one and then look up in RAID_CLASS_COLORS.

I wouldn't be able to test if this actually works myself though.
