CastAShield

Version: 0.91
by: jhaquo [More]

This is a simplistic add-on that does its job: remind you to put up a shield.

Once you are in combat, it will check if you have any of your shields up, if not it will warn you on screen until you cast one.

um . . .

OK so I've been trying to figure out why this add-on isn't working for the past few weeks and am just now getting back to post something in the comments. I downloaded and installed the add-on correctly, it appears in the add-on tab in the game, but the darn thing just wont work. It doesn't display any message when I'm in combat or not or if I have a shield up or not. I tried comparing this to AspectWatch (which is the only thing I can think of that is similar in function) but I don't honestly know much about lua code to be able to figure out what's wrong . . . can you take a look and see what's up? I appreciate the help.

(copied and pasted from the castashield.lua file in my folder exactly as it appears)


-- CastAShield
-- By jhaquo
-- Version .91

function CastAShield_show()

local playerclass = UnitClass("player");

if (playerclass ~= "Shaman") then
DisableAddOn("CastAShield");
else

local i;
local buffs = {};
local j = 0;
local buff;
local shielded = 0;
local name, rank;

-- list buffs

for i=1, 16, 1 do
name, rank = UnitAura("player", i, "HELPFUL");

if (name == nil) then

else
buffs[i] = name;
j = j + 1;
end
end

-- check buffs
for i=1, j, 1 do
Aura_On = strfind(buffs[i], "Shield");
if (Aura_On == nil) then
else
shielded = Aura_On;
end

end

-- display msg

if (shielded == 0) and InCombatLockdown() then
UIErrorsFrame:AddMessage("Recast a shield.", 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 1.0, 5);
end

end

end
