FuBar - RecZone

Version: 2.0.20301

by: wmrojer [More]

New beta version available at http://files.wowace.com/FuBar_RecZone/

Shows information about your current zone and recommends zones and instances based upon your level and faction.

In the bar it can show zone name, sub zone name, coordinate and it will always show a color coded zone range for your current zone. Zone name is color coded based on zone faction, Green=Friendly, Orange=Contested, Red=Enemy. Level range is color coded based on difficulty. Grey=To low, Green=Easy, Yellow=Good, Orange=Hard, Red=You got a death wish?.

The tooltip will give info about your current zone and any instances in that zone. It will also show you a list of recommended zones and a list of recommended instances. By left clicking on a recommended zone or instance you will be shown the walk path to that zone, a list of zones you will need to go through to get there if you are going to walk. (For when you have to walk. ie the first time.)

On the worldmap it displays zone level and instances for zones when you hover the mouse over them. It also displays coordinates for your current location and the cursor location.

Shift-click to insert location in to chat edit box.
Double-click to open worldmap.

This addon now has all the functionality of FuBar - LocationFu as requested.

You can configure what type of information you want to see.

Faction
Continent
Coordinate
Instances
Battlegrounds
Raid instances

You can also configure it to recommend lower and higher level zone, up to 10 levels lower and higher.

The addon is written for FuBar 2.0 with Ace2.

Installation:

Just unpack in your Interface/AddOns/ folder. No dependancies, all required libraries are embeded.

In the works:
Nothing. Working on some new projects

Know issues:

German and french translations aren't perfect.

2.0.16969
Made compatible with The Burning Crusade. Added TBC zones and instances. Upgraded to AceLocal-2.2 and Babble-2.2.

You get the drift. The 1 in "%.1f" tells it how many decimals to show.

I assume that to change them to show decimal fractions, have to change lines 1135 & 1136 from:

RecZoneMapFrameCursorCoords:SetText(format("%s %.0f, %.0f", L["Cursor:"], 100 * cx, 100 * cy))

RecZoneMapFramePlayerCoords:SetText(format("%s %.0f, %.0f", L["Player:"], 100 * px, 100 * py))

to

RecZoneMapFrameCursorCoords:SetText(format("%s %.1f, %.1f", L["Cursor:"], 100 * cx, 100 * cy))

RecZoneMapFramePlayerCoords:SetText(format("%s %.1f, %.1f", L["Player:"], 100 * px, 100 * py))

I think it's a little problem with RecZone when you disable and then enable display of coordinates in the toolbar. I've found something fishy, but I need to test it some more before I'm sure.

If you want it to display 1 decimal for the location you can easily change line 785 in RecZone.lua from:
self.vars.coordtext = string.format('(%.0f, %.0f) ', x*100, y*100);

Problem with build r14246.

I have NavigatorFu running as well, as I find its much (much) easier to gauge direction and location at a glance when you have 1/10 coordinates showing (i.e. 40.2 vs. 40). Perhaps you could change or add as an option such a coordinate display?

Anyway, logged on with the updated r14246 RecZone (updated from the previous r13302). I had turned off the main map coords before the update; am using NavigatorFu's instead. Still had the FuBar RecZone coordinates running, though.

Tested things out by enabling & disabling the minimap bar (worked). Enabled & disabled both main map & FuBar coords (worked).

However, I then enabled the RecZone FuBar coordinates again. They did not match NavigatorFu's (and were wrong for my location). Moved around in the zone I was in (IF) and the RecZone coords did not change. Moved outside IF into Dun Morogh and the following error popped up: "FuBar_RecZone\\RecZone.lua:880: attempt to perform arithmetic on field `playerCoordX' (a table value)". RecZone's FuBar coordinates continued not to work.

Bug in this revision and/or not playing nicely with NavigatorFu? NavigatorFu has had no problems.

P.S. Sorry about the bug -- I don't even remember having a line like that in my code. Anyway, glad Vurlix found it. :-)

The bug wasn't your's, I made some changes to the code to be more inline with the rest of the code, and that's where the bug got introduces.

I realised that just zone level wasn't always enough to tell you if a zone was good. You actually need to get there also

And some zones are to difficult to get to at lvl 15-25.
The code does it's best to avoid going through enemy territory (I play on a pvp server), but some instances you just have to pass through enemy territory to get through.

Vurlix A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	DSanai's modification as integrated in the current version (1.0.12032) has a small bug: the minimap location bar disappears and reappears (toggles) each time the warcraft UI is loaded. I've isolated and fixed the problem: the condition on the first line of RecZone:ToggleShowingMinimapBar needs to be inverted as such: Code: if value == nil then becomes: Code: if value ~= nil then Last edited by Vurlix : 10-06-06 at 12:30 PM.

I was feeling frisky, so I added that functionality to my copy, hehe. Hope this helps!

(1) Add Jostle library to package.

To RecZone.lua, add:

Code:

local Jostle = AceLibrary("Jostle-2.0")

and:

Code:

function RecZone:IsShowingMinimapBar()
	return self.db.profile.minimapBar
end
function RecZone:ToggleShowingMinimapBar()
	self.db.profile.minimapBar = not self.db.profile.minimapBar
	if not self.db.profile.minimapBar then
		MinimapBorderTop:Hide()
		MinimapToggleButton:Hide()
		MinimapZoneTextButton:Hide()
	else
		MinimapBorderTop:Show()
		MinimapToggleButton:Show()
		MinimapZoneTextButton:Show()
	end
	Jostle:Refresh()
end

To function RecZone:OnEnable() add:

Code:

	if not self:IsShowingMinimapBar() then
		self.db.profile.minimapBar = not self.db.profile.minimapBar
		self:ToggleShowingMinimapBar()
	end

To function RecZone:OnDisable() add:

Code:

if not self:IsShowingMinimapBar() then
		self:ToggleShowingMinimapBar()
		self.db.profile.minimapBar = not self.db.profile.minimapBar
	end

To the local options variable, in the map section, add:

Code:

				minimapBar = {
					type = 'toggle',
					name = "Show minimap bar",
					desc = "Show the bar above the minimap that tells the location and allows you to close minimap",
					get = "IsShowingMinimapBar",
					set = "ToggleShowingMinimapBar",
				},

DSanai A Wyrmkin Dreamwalker Forum posts: 50 File comments: 110 Uploads: 3	Great work! I love it! I've disabled all of LocationFu but for one thing. This is the only thing missing from RecZone now that I can see: No option to hide the minimap's location box. When I disabled LocationFu, it popped back up, and I didn't see an option to hide it on the RecZone menu. So I've hidden all but LocationFu's icon, and tucked it away, but would be nice to toss it entirely. __________________ Dsanai - nElf Hunter Glacialfox - nElf Death Knight Evilianti - Gnome Warlock

wmrojer A Deviate Faerie Dragon Forum posts: 13 File comments: 73 Uploads: 3	LocationFu + RecZone = true ??? I will see what I can do about putting in the rest of LocationFu's functionality. But right now I'm a bit busy with FuBar_GarbageFu, that has turned in to a bit of a monster. It's huge code wise. (For a plugin that is). This was also my first FuBar and my first Ace mod. So I have some learning to do. There is one thing about cordinates, they require an OnUpdate/Scheduled event..... So it will have to be optional. Last edited by wmrojer : 09-01-06 at 03:25 PM.
