Am I locked out?
Little addon which saves me quite some time with all my twinks.
What it does
Rembers which of your chars are saved to which instance.
- Every Instance that gives you a SavedInstanceID is trackable! (LFR/nhc/hc/mythic raids, mythic 5mans, etc.)
- Daily Heroic Dungeon, PVP, etc.
- 5man heroics (Option to show 5mans in the tooltip is OFF by default)
- Emissary Bounty Caches
Updates on login and every time you get the 'You are now saved to this instance'-message, a shift-click on the tooltip forces a manual update. So you don't have to log onto your chars to see if you can join that raid with one of your alts
Currently only a LDB icon:
- Right click: Brings up the configuration (change tooltip colors, profiles)
- Left click: Bring up the RaidFrame, Shift-click for manual playerupdate
- Hovering: Shows a tooltip of all instances. Green = free, Red = locked out (default colors, you can change them)
Config options:
- Standard Ace3 profile things
- Change colors of the tooltip
- Change abbreviations used for instancenames (Ailo tries to get a 'first char of every word'-type, but that is kinda hard if you have a locale which relies heavy on utf-8 chars)

Fixed in r138, at least not a tagged version, I need to add a test where I where it simulates an ID reset (that was the problem, where I forgot to change to the new IDreset+encounterleft tracking)
Another cool thing would be is if you could add raids yourself - some of us are farming ZG and Kara for the special mounts, it would be nice to know if you'd gone during the current lockout period.
Anyway - this is a really, really neat idea.
The problem with the tracking of encounters still alive is how to bring it on the tooltip with having a have a list of 1/0, perhaps just the number of encounters left? :/
can you add more black space at the top of the tool tip, right now the cursor covers the headers, and when moving it up or down at all, you lose the tooltip. thanks =D
Can or will AILO track 'The Frost Lord Ahune'?
The LFG dungeonid for the seasonal ahune fight (to see if you've done it and got the reward goody bag already is) 286.
So ServerError, I think you you could just make a quick hack to ailo.lua and replace GetLFGDungeonRewards(262) with GetLFGDungeonRewards(286). What this would do would be to change ailo from tracking whether you've done the daily heroic on each character to whether they've done the ahune fight once. Obviously that means for as long you as run with that hack you can't also track the daily but its a quick and dirty way you could track now.
edit: tested it just now and yeah making that change works
additional ids
286 Midsummer - Ahune
287 Brewfest - Corin Direbrew
285 Hallow's End - Headless Horseman
it's posible that you code seasonal quest like Event of summer, of love is in the air event !?
depending on the length of the header (instance-name) the size of the green/red block is. is there a chance to modify the size of these blocks (maybe in the lua itself) or could you pls implement such a function? your addon is really nice. only the size of these "blocks" has to be equal (my opinion) ;)
regards
Much appreciated.
Yes. Use a LDB display. They are pretty much all "minimal".
But if you want super minimal, try a LDB display like Blockoland or StatBlockCore. For the ultimate in minimalism, there is tekblocks.
Any chance of an interface other than a minimap icon? Having a slash command pop open a small window (similar to that of an item) that displays the same formatted information as the mouse over tooltip would be nice for those of us that prefer minimal UIs.
@itsme22: r124 has it, when there are no error complaints i'm gonna tag a release
