Description :
This is a modified version of SpellAlert that instead of putting the notification up in it's own frame will send a message to ScrollingCombatText.
There are several command line options to set how the text is displayed.

/sasct menu -- Opens the options frame. (needs SpellAlert SCT Options)
/sasct test -- Send a test message to see how it looks. (Also done automatically after a settings change)
/sasct toggle [on/off] -- Toggles alerting of spell casting on and off. [Default is On]
/sasct color [default/target/warn/emote] [red/green/blue] [0.0 - 1.0] -- Sets the color component of the specified color.
/sasct repeat [number] -- How long in seconds to refrain from repeating the same message [Default is 2]
/sasct ignore [on/off] -- Toggles using the ignore list on and off. [Default is On]
/sasct iadd spell -- Adds an item to the ignore list
/sasct irem spell -- Removes an item from the ignore list
/sasct ilist -- Lists all spells on the ignore list
/sasct targetonly [on/off] -- Toggles alerting for spells of your current target only [Default is Off]
/sasct force [on/off] -- Toggles using the whitelist on and off. *new* - thanks to jvanber for the idea.
(Overrides the Target Only setting forcing whitelisted spells to alert.
The default whitelist contains mana burn, drain mana and viper sting)
/sasct fadd spell -- Adds a spell to the whitelist *new*
/sasct frem spell -- Removes a spell from the whitelist *new*
/sasct flist -- Lists all spells on the whitelist *new*
/sasct colorize [on/off] -- Toggles colorizing the messages on and off. (overrides color choices) [Default is On]

I didn't have a chance to test totem casting on the PTR before Blizzard took it down. When I have a day to play on the live servers (I'm in EU) expect a new version with "saner" defaults. This is still work in progress, I was more interested initially to get a "working" version out.

Another thing I noticed... "XXX casted Execute" and many other such "casts" are being displayed in SASCT. Is this intended? I mean, it's not really a spell and even though I know there's an ignorelist I could add things to, that's quite a lot of spells that'd have to be added manually.

Dridzt A Chromatic Dragonspawn Forum posts: 158 File comments: 156 Uploads: 16	Missfiled Note that I have miss-filed this addon as a 'patch' for Scrolling Combat Text, when it's actually a plugin / optional addon. Just want to make it perfecty clear that this addon changes nothing in Scrolling Combat Text itself, it merely uses SCT if present to output its spell alert notifications Dridzt
