ObjectScanner
Let's say that you're hunting the Voidtalon of the Dark Star. You need to watch out for the very rarely spawning Edge of Reality portals... but it'd help if you had something to yell at you when you brushed by it.
Just type /objectscanner Edge of Reality and every time you mouse over that portal, Illidan will tell you that you weren't really ready for today to be the day.
(But don't bother, because the Edge of Reality is what I made this for, so it's enabled by default.)
Usage
List everything you're currently scanning for: /objectscanner
Toggle an object to scan for: /objectscanner Name of Object
Very important note: capitalization matters. It looks for exactly what you typed to show up as the complete title of the tooltip.
You can track as many objects as you want at once.

Posted Dec 8, 2020Hello, sorry to bother you again!
Would you have any idea why it doesn't seem to work for Spectral Key anymore?
I could swear it used to alert me for Spectral Key in Torghast, but now, even testing removing and re-adding it, it won't trigger when I mouse over Spectral Key.

Posted Dec 11, 2020Spectral Key is technically an NPC, so it'd be skipping it.

Posted Nov 29, 2020Is there a way to make it track multiple things at the same time? I'm trying to use it as an alert for things like Anima Hoard, Prisoner's Anima, Plundered Anima, and Spectral Keys in Torghast as I'm afraid I'll overlook them.

Posted Nov 30, 2020Just use the slash command -- everything you request will be looked for simultaneously. (Do note: capitalization matters.)

Oh, thank you!
I'm assuming to untrack an object, you just type in /objectscanner <objectname> a second time?
