Talent Planner

Version: 3.10

by: thegabbert [More]

World of Warcraft Talent Planner v3.10

Talent Planner adds planning capabilities to the talent frame. Left clicking on a talent increases (and right clicking decreases) your planned rank for that talent. If the talent preview interface option is enabled, control left and right clicking increase/decrease the preview rank; otherwise, control left clicking actually buys the talent. For all intents and purposes, preview mode is treated by Talent Planner as if you actually have the previewed talents, except that you can change them on the fly. Talent Planner fully supports dual spec: each spec has their own separate set of talent goals, etc. Slash commands all act on the "current" spec, i.e. the spec you are currently viewing. Note that you can make changes to the inactive talent goals without switching specs.

The talents are color coded to indicate their status (see below) and a description of the planned rank is added to the tooltip. It's similar in nature to the talent calculators on the Blizzard website, but slightly more complicated because it needs to show you not only what talents you've planned but also what you currently have. The bottom right numbers are your current rank/max rank. The bottom left number is your goal rank.

There are several states a talent can be in, each with its own color.

If you do not currently have points to spend:

Grey: You have not planned any ranks in this talent but you could do so.
Blue: You have planned some ranks in this talent, but not to its maximum.
Purple: You have planned to max this talent out.
Gold: You have maxed out this talent.
Red: You have more ranks in this talent than you had planned.

Additionally, if you have one or more points to spend:

Cyan: You have not planned any ranks in this talent, but you could still spend a point on it if you want.
Green: You have planned some ranks in this talent and can now spend a point on it.

Slash commands:

/tp or /planner [help]
Shows this help text.

/tp or /planner standby
Enables/Disables the mod.

/tp or /planner reset
Clears your talent goals for your current spec.

/tp or /planner current
Sets your talent goals to those talents you currently have.

/tp or /planner save <name>
Saves your current goals under the name <name>.
If there is already a saved set with that name, this will overwrite it.

/tp or /planner load <name>
Loads the goals saved as <name>. This will overwrite your current goals.

/tp or /planner rename <old> <new>
Renames the goals saved as <old> to <new>.

/tp or /planner import <name> <alt> [realm]
Imports the goals saved as <name> from the alt named <alt> on realm [realm].

/tp or /planner delete <name>
Deletes the set saved as <name>.

/tp or /planner list [alt] [realm]
Lists saved goals for the alt named [alt] on realm [realm] or for yourself if no alt specified.

Future plans:

1. Add support for pet talent trees.

2. Make the colors configurable. Some may not agree with my color choices, seeing as how I have no artistic sense whatsoever.

3. Allow for alt-viewing. Currently it only shows the tree for the current character. It would be a pain to store all the textures and whatnot in order to be able to view one character's talent goals on another character in the normal graphical talent pane, but perhaps a text listing would work.

4. Allow all three talent trees to be seen at once.

Respectfully, I'm not changing that display.

I found my recommendation most useful for my use of the addon; plan what points I can obtain at my current level if I had wiped them. The display can be changed to represent both of our use of the addon. It would display two values at the cost of one!

The bellow is an example, and you may want to format the display of the it in a more efficient way, as the text is liable to go beyond the bounds of the frame:

Code:

local pointsToSpend = freePoints.." ("..((UnitLevel("player")-9) - totalPoints).." to level "..UnitLevel("player").." | "..(70 - totalPoints)..PLANNER_UNPLANNED

Although I recremend you change the "Tallent Points: x (y unplaned)" display. Simply incorporating UnitLevel("player") can make the display dynamic; and if the user plans too many talent points beyond what their current level can invest, it goes into negatives. And if the user plans as much as he can invest, it shows 0. I changed this when I mistakenly missed my end-of-tier talents. Change line 360 of r3.1 to: Code: local pointsToSpend = freePoints.." ("..((UnitLevel("player")-9) - totalPoints)..PLANNER_UNPLANNED; )

Yup. That fixed it. Thank you very much

It seems the pet talent tree is totally bugged and shows wrong data even after untrain request. Thanks to the bug, i wasted perhaps 10 silver for nothing. I almost sure i carefully select the skills, but it goes totally wrong. It's very annoying bug. A bit too much.... Well, i download the new version and hopefully the bug is gone.

Yeah, planning for each pet could get to be a pain. But planner needs to..umm...not display any info at all on the pet tree page. Right now, where the pet's available points count and spent point counts are supposed to display, it displays the info from the last visited player tree page.

Once loot lag is fixed, I'll see what happens when I next level my pet to getting a point. That might be what it's waiting for.

Still, I find planner handy enough, I wouldn't mind logging out, disable, log in, spend pet point, etc. whenever I had to. I like this mod for it's uncluttered ease of use.

It shows all 71 points planned, obviously a bleed over from my character trees. It won't let me plan my pet's tree. Right and left clicking does nothing. Clearing my character's plan doesn't help. I'm hoping I'm doing something wrong and you can set me straight...or that the fix is easy. I really love this addon Oh, the blue you use for partially planned talents is way too dark for me.

thegabbert A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 93 Uploads: 2	Blizzard's calculators, even when they're not weeks behind, add more inaccuracies than they fix. My new scraper is about 95% done: for about 600 talents (20ish per tree * 3 trees * 10 classes) I'm having to manually tweak about 20 talents, which takes me about 20 minutes. I expect that the live talents aren't much different than the last beta build, which means I should have a new version up pretty much as soon as I get home from work.

Dridzt A Pyroguard Emberseer Forum posts: 1360 File comments: 829 Uploads: 55	Just a heads up that Blizzard's calculators have been updated to the current. (and probably one that goes live next week) I've updated my local copy again. I know you're working on a more generic way for talent scraping just putting the info here, in case there's no time to finish it until patch goes live and you need an "emergency" upload.

I've updated it for the current Wrath of the Lich King beta build (8820).
Apart from it being irreplaceable I have a newfound respect for the effort that has gone into it.

The blizzard web talent scrapper alone is a piece of work

If you would enable Optional Plugins and Patches I could upload the beta compatible version for your review.
(open to other suggestions how to get it to you if you'd rather not)

Changes I've done to my local copy include:
- various widget compatibility changes
- webdata.lua update for the current talents (as of 8820).

Where can i get this build...currently broke in Test w/ version 2.12

So, do you think you could find a remedy for this?

Erm, no.

You don't have to disable the addon to spend your talents.
With the addon enabled Left-click plans a talent point, Right-click unplans a point.

When you have made your choices, CTRL+Click spends the actual point.
