EventAlert

Version: 4.7.6

by: CurtisTheGreat [More]

The addon will notify you in the middle of your screen with an icon, name of the spell that has procced, the time left on the proc and will make a subtle sound. EventAlert is also able to handle more than one proc at a time (this option was not available in previous versions).

I am not fond of addons that have very complicated installation and setups. The mod should work on install without any config, but if you wish to change any options use the following command: /ea options
To see a more detailed list of what options are avaiable to the mod, just check out the screenshot of the options pane.

This mod tracks the following events/procs:

Death Knight
- Cinderglacier (Runeforging)

- Killing Machine
- Rime (Freezing Fog)
- Rune Strike
- Sudden Doom
Druid

Quick Backstory: I created this addon as a test for myself as my first "from the ground up" addon. Most of my coding in WoW LUA was taking other addons and just fixing them so they work from minor bugs or whatnot.

Anyhow, I needed a mod that was lightweight and did only what I wanted it to do, and that was warn me when one of my spells or talents procced something I needed. Thus, EventAlert was born. There are likely to be bugs, explosions and not so good things that may come from this mod. I'm sorry in advance! If you find a bug, please let me know so I can fix it.

Also, if anyone finds a spell/talent/etc that they want watched, please let me know and I will add it!

4.7.6
Bugfix: Fixed problem with spell charges not showing up on alerts.
Bugfix: Fixed problem with alerts not showing when options changed without a reload.
Change: Added option to show/hide spell charges.

That does make sense, yes.

I think if I add the libs below that Zidomo was talking about, I'll go ahead and add the ability to do sounds per-proc in the same update. So hopefully I can find the time to get that all coded here in the next few days.

Reckoning isn't something that requires your intervention, so this will be added a later time when I add all the "activated" abilities. (Overpower, Revenge, etc etc)

Great suggestions!

I've added an option to mimic OmniCC's cooldowns.

ATM I'm not ready to tackle adding the libs in, but it definitely is something I'll get around to adding.

Two feature requests:

--move that cooldown timer number and/or make it larger. As it is now--very small above the top of the EventAlert icon frame--its very difficult to see at a glance. Even when you have the EventAlert icon frame set to be gigantic.

Most people using icon countdown timers are more familiar with OmniCC and the like that put the cooldown counters inside the frame (filling it). Having EventAlert do it differently takes getting used to and is not ideal.

The "Nao!!" proc alert mod does the cooldown timer better. But its got issues currently so am using EventAlert (or at least trying to).

--Add LibSharedMedia-3.0 support (a standalone library). So that instead of the limited selection of sounds EventAlert currently comes with, it can use virtually any Blizzard sound. And do so without the mod needing to add its own support.

If wary about using that library, don't be ; many non-Ace mods use it. Such as MSBT, InFlight, HelpMeSheep, HealBot, TotemTimers, the aforementioned OmniCC and so on.

Other than those two things, the mod works well so far.

Ability to Know if you have to Starfire or Wrath. Sometimes you are spamming both & am unsure which one proc'd

I'll see if I can make it more noticeable which has procced.

Interesting feature idea. But it is quite a bit out of the scope of this addon. This addon only tracks when something occurs to you in the form of a buff. It's not able to track things on another person or mob, at this time.

I'd suggest checking out DoTimer for the Explosive shot, as I think it tracks that when it's on a mob.

As far as being greyed out, when on cooldown, I'll look into that and see how much coding that would involve.

Enhancement Request:

This may be too involved, so I can understand If it's not worth the time/energy to make happen but I would love to see some improvements to the Lock and Load event alert.

Ideally, when Lock and Load triggers it would be grayed out until Explosive Shot's cooldown is finished (possibly even displaying a countdown until that CD is finished) then it would display as it normally does. This would help in those frequent situations when LnL triggers but Explosive Shot is still on cooldown.

Also, it would be great if there was some way to indicate when the dot from explosive shot has finished and it's time to fire the 2nd explosive shot. As it is now, the hunter has to be careful not to clip the explosive dot or loose a bunch of dps. If there were a way of visually indicating when either we shouldn't shoot because we'd clip our previous dot or when when we should shoot, that would be a really handy addition to your addon.

You can hit ESC and it will go away.

I'll see if I can add a right click to remove feature in the next update.

Thanks for finding the issue. I'll get it fixed.

Ok, got it. The "TIME LEFT" only seems to appear if you've used the options to perform a test alert. As long as you don't do that (or reload the UI after doing so) the timer performs as expected.

Do you get any errors at all or does it just say TIME LEFT and that's it?

Confirmed. Same thing is happening to me. Just says "TIME LEFT". No errors.
