Request: BOSS_FIGHT_START / BOSS_FIGHT_STOP

[NwK|Zulah]

I think everyone who writes boss mods or raid trackers would really like these events.

My suggestion would be:

BOSS_FIGHT_START - args: GUID, Name

BOSS_FIGHT_STOP - args: GUID, Name, Success(boolean)

Given that there are some multi-boss boss fights, should GUID and Name each be tables?

GUIDs = {
   [0] = GUID1,
   [1] = GUID2,
etc.
}
Names = {
   [0] = Name1,
   [1] = Name2,
etc.
}

EDIT: Opps! I started my tables indexed at 0... too much C++ right before this post. Note in Lua, table indices start at 1

IF they where to implement this, i'd find it more usefull to just pass the guid of the mobs, not the names. As for the stop event, a simple true false would work, you can cache the guid's fromthe start event.
You can translate a guid to a name easy with a tooltip.
