rTimeToDie

Version: 4.001

by: zork [More]

Intro
Small mod that calculates the time left until a boss is going die.

How?
The mod tracks the health of your current target and calculates the difference in its hp value from the first time seen till now. It then uses the rule of three to calculate (predict) all the other needed values. The longer the timespan, the more accurate will be the numbers. Make sure the "show_time_mobtype" variable is set to the correct value, otherwise you may see nothing. For testing set it to 3 and test on mobs.

Features
- shows time until the target is going to die
- option which mobtypes will be tracked (raidboss, hc boss, all mobs)
- option if dps should be shown

Config

Code:


  --set your mobtype
  --1 = raidboss only
  --2 = raidboss and playerlevel + 3 mobs (hc instance bosses, 83 mobs etc.)
  --3 = show add for every mob available
  local show_time_mobtype = 2
  
  --show dps?
  local show_dps = 1

  --show fight_length
  local show_fightlength = 1
  
  --position
  local anchor = "TOP"
  local posx = 0
  local posy = -50

Fair enough, just a suggestion!

It's always a good principle to apply the rule "divide to conquer", so too much stuff doesn't break your code, like inserting too much bloatware into your frames. That's why I'm thinking if I should do it or simply use your addon for example.

I was implementing something like this on oUF_lumen the other day, it worked, used the rule of 3 too to estimate the mob time to die, but because I didn't have any boss to test it, I scratched the future for now. But writing this post just to say that having this future on your frame would look cooler don't you think? In the target frame. __________________ My oUF Layout: oUF Lumen

Oh it does work. You have to read the config.

Code:

  --set your mobtype
  --1 = raidboss only
  --2 = raidboss and playerlevel + 3 mobs (hc instance bosses, 83 mobs etc.)
  --3 = show add for every mob available
  local show_time_mobtype = 2

Change that to 3 and it will appear on every mob. Additionally you can change the number in the toc file to 40000 to make it not show as outdated.

Gallahead A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 1 File comments: 193 Uploads: 2	spitzen addon, danke! gibt es eine möglichkeit 1) ausschließlich die zeitangzeige einzufärben? evt sogar automatisch in abhängigkeit zur gesamtkampfzeit? 2) die länge des namens des gegners (statt des ganzen frames) auf eine selbst eingestellte maximale anzahl von buchstaben zu begrenzen um umschöne überlappungen mit anderen ui elementen zu vermeiden? 3) das zeitformat zu verändern? statt "XX Hr YY Min" bsp "XX:YY Hr" und statt "YY Min ZZ Sec" bsp "YY:ZZ Min" ps: hier noch eine weitere einbaumöglichkeit __________________ Thinktank UI Gallahead, Tank since WoW 1.0 Last edited by Gallahead : 10-11-09 at 08:10 PM.

I think I found the last bug that I knew of.

If the unit is not at full health we need to calculate back in time >_<.

There is a time span from |first_time_seen -> current_time| and there is a timespan from |unit_is_at_100% -> first_time_seen|. Currently the last timespan is not subtracted thus the time may be sometimes to far in future if the first_time_seen and the unit_max_hp_value differ to much.
