Or if my idea is even possible or i may have even missed it.

I play a arcane mage and we have the summonable familer but it goes away as we zone is it possible for an add-on to remind us to resummon this be made?

thanks

something like this:

Code:

local f=CreateFrame("Frame")
local color = {r = 1, g = 1, b = 1} --white
local text = GetSpellInfo(205022)
f:RegisterEvent("ZONE_CHANGED_NEW_AREA")
f:SetScript("OnEvent",function(self,event)
	RaidNotice_AddMessage(RaidWarningFrame, text, color)
	PlaySound("RaidWarning")
end)

it plays a sound and writes the name of the spell in the raidwarning frame

You can probably make a weakauras string for this and avoid writing an addon.
