[Suggestions] Official Thread
Rythal is going to be very busy, having already posted his future plans elsewhere. In the meantime, I thought I would start a new Official Suggestions Thread. No bug reports, please. Only post "Hey, wouldn't it be a good thing if Carbonite supported, was changed like, or could be improved with" ideas.
Since Rythal as mentioned supporting Ace3, that gave me a few ideas I'd like to see in Carbonite.

LibDataBroker so users can easily access some of the main features via a broker addon like Titan Panel.

Tooltips
I am grateful for Rythal taking over development; it seems churlish to ask for more. But...
It would be lovely to have tooltips on the settings in options. I have no idea what many of them do. Perhaps this is something that could be undertaken by a poweruser. Thank you, Rythal, for your fine work. |

just a thought
I would like to see a "lite" version. Or add a toggle on/off on some options.
Thank you so much for your hard work. |

Quest auto-learning
I'm not a programmer but i was wondering if it's possible for a mod to auto learn quests as the player does the quest. And is it possible to transmit that quest data that was learned to all carbonite users via a hidden channel thus expanding the quest area/blob area of quest items or npcs.

Turn Off / Log Out
I know that the two "chat" channels are required to share data when working with other Carbonite Users.
Although I would like the ability to turn those chat joins off automatically. regards, |

they are right, there is 2 channels it joins, crb2 and crb[random] ... crb2 is used for global talk for version information so you can see when a new version is out, and world positions which is why you can see every other carbonite user in your zone. That one can be turned off in the options already. The second channel I don't know what it's used for yet, group communication is all done through the API for addon communication.

I have a suggestion regarding the instance/dungeons/scenario maps. They are much smaller than the world maps ones. Zoom them automatically once we enter or leave such places.
For quests databases, unless you have a tool to parse wowhead/thotbot to create the quest db for you, use any good/stable/consistent already known addon (there are many GPLs out there) as base db instead of recreate it from the scratch as you're planning. I guess its a waste of time maintaining a local quest db because there are people that already do that. If you decide to use a own database, users could help a lot installing the wowhead tool in their machines. This small tool collects a lot of data in-game. You could use it to extract the desired information. |

WoWHead requires the WoWHead Looter program, which installs their addon for you. It is compatible with both Windows and Mac, and does have a manual upload option, along with automatic. |
Glad to see the devs made the right choice for the community. Grats Rythal! :)
Is it possible to translate over the Blizzard 'big map' quest blob POIs over to the Carbonite map? If you integrate Blizzards minimap into the carbonite map, it's kind of funky because they added showing POI blobs to the minimap, but since the minimap is integrated into carbonites, it only shows the blobs from the minimap object that gets moved around/scaled. If you can grab the POIs to place over Carbonite's map, then you could probably grab the ?'s too for NPC turn ins? |
Quote:
As it is now, I never see anything on Carbonite's maps except possibly Mailboxes, Flightmasters, Inn's, Banks, various Nodes, and Auction Houses. I'd like to see a full-range of optional POI's, and be able to turn on/off the ones I want (on each size of the Carbonite map). |
Future release suggestion- Profiles
I'd like to ask that you consider including in future releases profiles? Nearly every addon these days has them, and they're certainly helpful to create one or two types of set ups one time, and then just be able to model after them. They're also a huge time saver after certain patches when Blizzard likes to make their Users redo everything.

Anyway, my version DOES have a 'Profile' setting, but it's hard to find. It's in the Carbonite "Options" under "Reset," I believe. Maybe it could be an option unto itself. |
Request for 2 more "use quest watch item" keybindings
hi
i have a Request for 2 more "use quest watch item" keybindings. |
Would it be possible to include the ability to track battle pet locations in the same way the gathering tracker works?

Gathermate 2 has stated they have no intention whatsoever of including battle pets in their database. But thx anyway. There is a pet tracker addon BUT it does not work with carbonites map.
