[Help] Entering a new Zone - Gets name and shows

[THursdae]

Basically for this addon im working on... When i enter a new zone, I want it to detect this happening, then grab the name of the zone (GetRealZoneText()), so i can use it to put up a message.

Anyone have help? Im a noob and have only made one addon so go easy on me Thanks

try registering the "MINIMAP_ZONE_CHANGED" event then when thats fired off get the GetRealZoneText().

something like:

function MyAddon_OnEvent()
    if event == "MINIMAP_ZONE_CHANGED" then
        message(GetRealZoneText())
    end
end

MyAddon = CreateFrame("Frame")
MyAddon:SetScript("OnEvent", MyAddon_OnEvent)
MyAddon:RegisterEvent("MINIMAP_ZONE_CHANGED")
