MendWatch  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 0.2
by: Polima [More]

MendWatch attempts to track the priest spell Prayer of Mending. A timer bar shows the current target of the Prayer of Mending spell with a countdown of how long the spell will last. When the target gets hit the amount the Prayer of Mending healed for will be shown and the bar will slowly fade away. If the Prayer of Mending jump to a new target a new timer bar
will be shown for the new target.

This is a preliminary release. I'm still working out the details of how to successfully parse the combat log and spell casting mechanics to effectively track Prayer of Mending. For the most part the mod works rather well but does show some inconsistent behaviour sometimes.

There are some configuration details available via the /mendwatch or /mw command. The most important is "/mw anchor" to reposition the location of the timer bars on screen. The remaining options are just some standard candybar details to tailor the visual appearance.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

UPDATE 01/29: I wrote MendWatch during my time on beta, and was happy with its rough state during that time. Now that I've hit 70 on the live servers I plan on resuming development. I should have a new release ready to go in the next few days with some of outstanding issues fixed.

UPDATE 02/05: Finally got around to fixing some of the problems:

1) I've updated all the underlying Ace2 mods. I hope this will solve some of the problems with localization for non-english players, and reports of problems with MendWatch and Chronometer.

2) The bug related to "attempt to concatenate local 'name' (a nil value)" has been fixed.

3) Tracking of pets is now included.

"MendWatch-0.1\\MendWatch.lua:367: attempt to concatenate field 'victim' (a boolean value)"
Replace info.victim in the line
self: Debug(...
(at #365 in my file but seems to be 367 in yours) by tostring(info.victim) .

So it becomes:
self: Debug("SPELL_BUFF - " .. event .. " : " .. tostring(info.victim) .. " / " .. info.type .. " / " .. info.skill)


(actually no space between : and the D of Debug)

You certainly can add the PoM to the list of buffs displayed by sRaidFrames. Never tried, but it should work.

First, you can comment the line 365 (or delete it).

For the error line 380, you can change the line
if self.bars[i].target == target then
by the following :
if self.bars[i].target == target and info.amount ~= nil then


These errors are probably caused by events that were not fired before, like SPELLTERSE_SELF or SPELLTERSE_OTHER.

If the orginal author can post a patched version, it would be great. Otherwise, I will do it - but I'm lazy...


PS: in case of error, turn on the debug option (/mw debug) and include the last debug info printed in the chat frame.

PS2: since I have write access to the repository of wowace, I'd like to put MendWatch into it. But I'd prefer to have the authorization of Polima.

Mendwatch in 2.1

After the 2.1 patch, it gives me an error when I recast it while the timer is still up. In other words, the first time I cast it it's fine, but when I refresh it before it has expired, I get the following error.

Feedback and a feature request

With the patched Babble lib this works fine on German clients.

However, the visual player I am, I have a feature request:
Is it possible to attach the prayer of mending bars to the corresponding Unit Frames? So, if a prayer is on party member 2 the bar is shown at his unit frame (with a configurable x/y offset)?
This would really improve the usability of this mod. Of course if the corresponding Unit Frame is not visible (or if it jumps to a non-group member in a raid) it will be displayed at the anchor position.

There's a lack for non english client.

Replace line 349 of MendWatch.lua by :

if n == BS["Prayer of Mending"] then

(original is: if n == "Prayer of Mending" then )

Thanks, and idea

First off, thanks for a wonderful mod, this makes my favorite spell much more useful.
Second, with the new 10s cooldown, would it be possible to add a small bar showing the cooldown time remaining? Then I can watch the same spot for all my ProM needs.
Thanks for considering,
- Aranthar

Hmmm.

Not really sure if this is Mendwatch's fault (great mod, by the way); but I've been having an addon conflict as of late, that started around the same time as my first use of Mendwatch, where my SCT mod would not show over heals in my message window despite the fact that it was turned on, I really need to get to the bottom of this.

Are there non-english players running this addon perfectly or do I just have no luck ?

ps: Alaha, if by any chance you come back here, could you please check you PM ? [/b]
Same problem here on a Fr client too.

Raif, thank you for your hint. After correcting the translation and adding the call to Babble-Spell on line 349 as Jashugan reported, everything works fine !

Suggestion

Suggestion: Instead of the background color of the bar being gray while waiting for the spell to proc it would rock if it would be the color of that class.

Regarding v0.2 and German clients.

Babble-Spell is unfortunately not up to date. Edit the file MendWatch\Libs\Babble-Spell-2.2\Babble-Spell-2.2.lua and replace the translation with

["Prayer of Mending"] = "Gebet der Besserung",

in the section for "deDE", and the first spell cast correctly triggers the bar to appear. I'm in the middle of a raid, so no more information at the moment, but I'll update this post in a couple of minutes.

Edit: Jumps are shown correctly, too.
