DiminishingReturns

Table of Contents

Diminishing Returns (DR) helps tracking your teammate and own diminishing returns on hostile players by attaching icons to unit frames.

Features

display running diminishing returns as icons, showing the diminishing status and remaining time,
uses DR category database from DRData-1.0,
select which categories to show or enable the learning option so they are detected automatically,
(new in v1.1-beta-3) can track diminishing returns on group members,
main options and icon layout options are available using /dimret and in the addon tab of interface options,
test mode available using /drtest.
LibDualSpec-1.0 for per-spec profiles,
AddonLoader support to reduce logon time,
(new in v1.1-beta-3) ButtonFacade support.

Supported unit frames

Blizzard target, focus and arena enemy frames,
Nameplates, using LibNameplateRegistry-1.0,
Shadowed Unit Frames: target, focus and arena frames (ShadowedUF_Arena is no longer supported),
Gladius. 2.0.x (arena unit frames),
X-Perl UnitFrames: target, focus, party and arena.
Z-Perl UnitFrames: target, focus, party and arena.
oUF: target, focus, party and arena.
Stellar UF: target and focus.
oUF_Adirelle: target and focus.
(untested) PitBull Unit Frames 4.0: target and focus.
(untested) ag UnitFrames: target and focus.

The icon layout for each frame is configurable using the “frame layout” entry in interface options.

To help understanding what is happening, you can use the /drsupport chat command, it will list all supported addon and their current state. DiminishingReturns relies on Blizzard API so if an addon is listed as “not installed”, this is because WoW itself has not found it.

Possible states:

supported: a fully-supported version of the addon has been loaded.
unsupported: an unsupported version of the addon has been loaded; DiminishingReturns ignores it.
unknown: the addon has been loaded but DiminishingReturns has not recognized its version; it may or may not work.
error: the addon has been loaded but an error occured in DiminishingReturns support code. Please report it.
to be loaded: the addon is installed but not loaded yet.
cannot be loaded: the addon is installed but the game client could not load it for some reason.
not installed: the addon has not be detected by the game client.

Doesn't seem to support KUI name plates addon for compatability.

Can this be changed?

I'm using Shadowed Unit Frames and it says "ShadowedUnitFrames: cannot be loaded: Insecure". Any idea how to fix? They're both updated to the latest version as of this posting.

The addon doesn't worked for me at 6.0.3 (Dr frames did not triggered after refreshing or breaking an aura) and I found out the cause. The parameter order in the function ParseCLEU has been changed and a few of them were been recieved as null, I've changed that order to make it works again to:

local function ParseCLEU(self, _, event, _, _, _, srcName, srcFlags, guid, _, name, flags, spellId, spell, _)

I hope this will be useful to the developers.

Thanks. I have thought about something like that but my usual source (wowpedia) seems to be outdated.

Seem to have a small issue with tidyplates threat plates. When using them on namplates, there seems to be 2 icons stackes on top of eachother. Not sure if its registering both the blizzard nameplate and the tidyplates or not, anything I can change in the Lua?

Hey, I just downloaded to try this addon out. But I can't get it to work with nameplates with the LibNameplateRegistry-1.0 downloaded as well.

I've tried disabling every other addon but DiminishingReturns & LibNameplateRegistry-1.0 but nothing shows up on the nameplate and in DiminishingReturns options there's a error msg. http://i.imgur.com/6i9GkyB.png
