gmAggroMon

Version: 900-2020101401

by: gmarco, Wexen

gmAggroMon
(previously known as AggroMon)

This is a very small aggro alert addon.
I decided to wrote it mainly because I miss so much the little "AGGRO" sound of another addon "banzai-alert".

The addon uses UNIT_THREAT_SITUATION_UPDATE to check for threat changes.
It simply plays a sound and/or prints in the default chat frame and/or show a frame colored based on unit aggro (in combat). The options can be turned on/off indipendently each others.

The aggro level returned are:

Code:

        descriptions taken from: http://www.wowwiki.com/API_UnitThreatSituation
	nil = unit is not on any other unit's threat table.
	0 = not tanking anything.
	1 = not tanking anything, but have higher threat than tank on at least one unit.
	2 = insecurely tanking at least one unit, but not securely tanking anything.
	3 = securely tanking at least one unit. 
	
or if you prefer:

	descriptions taken from: http://wowprogramming.com/docs/api/UnitThreatSituation
	nil = Unit has no threat
	0 = Unit has less than 100% raw threat (default UI shows no indicator)
        1 = Unit has 100% or higher raw threat but isn't mobUnit's primary 
             target (default UI shows yellow indicator)
        2 = Unit is mobUnit's primary target, and another unit has 100% or 
             higher raw threat (default UI shows orange indicator)
        3 = Unit is mobUnit's primary target, and no other unit has 100% or
             higher raw threat (default UI shows red indicator)

Since v0.2 it show also the aggro level of the target in a range 0-100 using UnitDetailedThreatSituation

P.s.
If you are updating from a version older than "715-2017012901" please delete the old prefs file:

It should be something like:

Lua Code:

GMAGGROMON = {
    ["ACTIVE"] = true,
    ["AFX"] = -305.976043701172,
    ["SOUND"] = true,
    ["CHAT"] = false,
    ["SHOW"] = true,
    ["AFY"] = 180.415390014648,
    ["ENAPVP"] = false,
    ["SNDFLE"] = 1,
    ["AFPOINT"] = "BOTTOM",
    ["AFRELPNT"] = "BOTTOM",
}

Hi, this is what the 'gmAggroMon' LUA file reads :

GMAGGROMON = {
["ACTIVE"] = true,
["SNDFLE"] = 1,
["SOUND"] = true,
["CHAT"] = false,
["SHOW"] = false,
["AFY"] = 0,
["ENAPVP"] = false,
["AFX"] = 0,
["AFPOINT"] = "CENTER",
["AFRELPNT"] = "CENTER",
}

I tested while killing mobs.

I can't reproduce the bug you told me ... if I use your gmAggroMon.lua everything works nicely. Have you tried to delete it when the game is off ? and then restart ?

It works fine now, as soon as Curse caught up and updated, the mod works as it should exept I need to keep moving the icon on each relog to where I need it : )

There was also a problem on curse. I have opened a ticket and they fix the downloaded file and version checking.

The last version that you should have is:

715-2017012901

and if it doesn't save the frame is not the latest

You should download again from WOWI or from Curse (now that the problem is fixed).
Delete the old prefs file (see my other answers) and everything should be fine

Please let me know.

Hi,

After updating to v715-2017012901, I think I got the same error as Flappers:

Code:

3x gmAggroMon\core.lua:312: Usage: <unnamed>:SetPoint("point" [, region or nil] [, "relativePoint"] [, offsetX, offsetY])
[C]: in function `SetPoint'
gmAggroMon\core.lua:312: in function <gmAggroMon\core.lua:299>

Locals:
(*temporary) = <unnamed> {
 0 = <userdata>
}
(*temporary) = nil
(*temporary) = nil
(*temporary) = nil
(*temporary) = nil
(*temporary) = nil

N.b: The AggroFrame now appears only when you are in combat even if set it to show in the config. You should wait to aggro something to see it appears (and move Let me know. __________________ This is Unix-Land. In quiet nights, you can hear the Windows machines reboot.

Many thanks again, hope I'm not asking for to much.

Flappers.

Hi thanks so much for writing.

Uhm ... usually the frame should stay where you put

and recover the positions next time you relog.
Btw I have to check it because I usually use only the sound (aggro aggro

and not the frame.

As the custom frame think it should not so difficult calling the Hide() and Show() basing on aggro change.

I'll check what I can do.

Thanks again.
