9% Threat, it is Safe to do more Damage

We're in Damage Mode

lolThreat

Overview
This Addon puts a Simple text on your screen, giving information about your current threat, of your target.

What does it show me?
At first the threat you have on your target. In percent.
There will be additional information shown next to your threat. It can be following:

notable Changes
As my code changed a bit, the value in tank mode can go up 100% too
Healer Mode is automically activated, when targeting a friendly player fighting a mob

[Tank Mode]
11% Get Aggro! >> Very low on Threat, mob Attacking another player
78% Get Aggro! >> High threat, but still not as high as the mob's target
85% Low on Threat! >> You should get your Aggro Back!
100% Safe Tanking >> You're tanking safe.

[Damage Mode]
21% Safe Damage >> Your threat is on a good level, proceed doing Damage.
76% High Threat! >> Be careful.
89% DAMAGE STOP >> Stop your Damage.
94% DAMAGE STOP >> Stop your Damage.

[Heal Mode]
21% Safe Threat >> No harm.
76% High Threat! >> Be careful.
80% You have AGGRO >> You have Aggro.
99% You have AGGRO >> You have Aggro.

Remind, that this Addon is very simpleminded and does not give any other information than mentioned above.

Tank Mode
Q:What is this, how do i activate?
A:lolThreat checks for a Stance or a Buff related to Tanking (Bearform, Righteous Fury...) and automatically switches to Tanking mode until the Buff is expired, cancelled or the Stance is switched.

Heal Mode
Q:What is this, how do i activate?
A:Whenever you target a friendly player who is in combat with a mob, you'll see the threat of that mob YOU have.

Configuration

Code:

/lt 
/lolthreat

to toggle testmode

syrupk A Theradrim Guardian Forum posts: 69 File comments: 407 Uploads: 25	First of all I must say I love this mod. Only one I ever use. I do have a question though. I want to lay this on top of my minimap, but I need to set it on high strata, can you point me in the right direction? Thanks __________________ I guess my brain will never work right.

Both using /console reloadui or logging out to the character screen and coming back have the identical effect. But the majority of addons I've tested won't properly register updates done to LUA code while logged into WoW without completely exiting WoW and coming back. If this one does by just relogging, though, fine.

It still does not eliminate the issue of losing collected raid data from a few mods like InstanceTime, StatBlock RaidDPS and so on when being forced to relog...

But whatever Lolzen wants to do...

If Lolzen doesn't want to do it, no problem at all here. Will use the more convenient MyThreat, as I have in the past. Hope your mod turns out well regardless .

Lolzen A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 8 File comments: 121 Uploads: 9	Thanks for the kind words, syrupk and Chrome67. Zimran: I just tested it with my Warrior and can confirm that Bug. I'll look into it later, after Work. Thanks for the Report! /Edit: I just found why it was switching. The Addon will scan if Righteous Fury is buffed, and that for all classes. So i just had to prevent scanning all classes, but paladins. Just a bit secure testing, then updating. Btw would love to read comments if it is working with DK's/Warriors/Druids/Paladins in tanking mode after the update so i can be sure it works :P Last edited by Lolzen : 05-29-2009 at 08:17 AM.

Zimran A Deviate Faerie Dragon Forum posts: 11 File comments: 17 Uploads: 12	This is a great mod, thanks for sharing. However, I've been having a bit of trouble with it in that when I tank on my warrior it seems to switch between tanking and dps mode. I start the fight and get the "Safe Tanking" message but soon after this switches to "DAMAGE STOP". I'm not sure why this is happening, I'm not changing stances or anything that I can think of to cause this.

Chrome67 A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 1 File comments: 12 Uploads: 0	Great job Lolzen... and I totally agree with Syrupk, it's his mod, please stop rudely requesting things as "must have" and "unacceptable without", this just isn't proper. Skylinee, the solution to your desired state is to make the changes I posted earlier in the "hack" msg. This will give you a movable and slightly visible frame, not clickthru, with no text. Just leave it in testmode when done, like I do. You'll have to make these changes on each update, but I think deleting 2 words and changing a 0 to a 1 is pretty simple to achieve what you desire. All and all I think everyone should just thank Lolzen for sharing his mod with us and the effort he's put into it.

syrupk A Theradrim Guardian Forum posts: 69 File comments: 407 Uploads: 25	Everyone who is posting comments needs to remember something. This is HIS personal mod. He uploaded it because I, and I'm sure other people requested it after we saw it on wowace. He's not going to implement things he doesn't use and you should stop asking him too. If you want to add something, please learn how or use another mod. This problem is one of the reasons we don't have alot of Neal's wonderful mods anymore and why Caith didn't upload his UI for a long time. People are too pushy. Don't expect him to add every single little thing you want.

If it is unacceptable for you, you might considering solving that problem, so it doesn't bother you anymore?

Quote:

Why is it necessary to disable "Testmode" in the lua file after finishing positioning? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of what people are asking for? You still have to relog/exit for the disabling of "Testmode" to take effect

Well. The thing is that: Instead of editing the numbers, save the lua-file, and you have to type /console reloadui every time, you just need to edit the lua 2 Times with just changing a number from 0-1 or 1-0. Then you know the exact position you threw it, instead of guessing. Thats the purpose.
But if it's too messy for you, you might add slash commands to your threat.lua

I, for myself can live with the default position and didn't need testmode either.

Quote:

How am i supposed to move the frame when it's clickthrough? :/ Lets say i'm raiding and want to move it to another spot, i need to exit the game, make Lua changes, log in, move it, log out again and re-do the lua changes. But too much i think.

I really don't see a point in changing the position everytime. Search a fix position where no other mod overlaps the text and problem solved. imo.

Quote:

Also, i doubt anyone would accidentaly move it as you need to hold alt to move it anyway. I don't see the purpose of making it clickthrough. Thanks for the mod anyway though, i can stick with an older version for now.

It is clickthrough, because if you don't see it (OOC), and want to move your camera, accidentily click on the button, it's nerving.

the solution is deleting

Code:

TButton:EnableMouse(testmode == 1)

at line 61. No need to reup.

---------
If it is bothering enouh people i can make this an option? Also it when seems silly to me oO
