PitBull Unit Frames 4.0

Woof. Arf. Yip.

Getting Started:

You can help translate PitBull for your language with the localization tool.

Classic

PitBull works with WoW Classic! Classic Era/Vanilla is supported in v4.3.x-vanilla releases. Cataclysm Classic is supported in v4.2.x releases (the same releases retail use).

Classic Era caveats:

Aura duration is not available from the API, so PitBull uses LibClassicDurations to show them. The duration can be inaccurate if it's affected by rank or talents.
Cast info is only available for your spells from the API. PitBull uses LibClassicCasterino to show cast bars for other units, but this can be inaccurate since there is a lot of guess-work involved.

Not super simple, not super hard, just need to be able to edit some code.

The basic name text is:

return '%s %s%s%s',Name(unit),Angle(AFK(unit) or DND(unit))

What you need to do is modify that to use the realm if it is set. You end up with something like:

local name, server = Name(unit)
if server and server ~= "" then name = name.."-"..server end

return '%s %s%s%s',name,Angle(AFK(unit) or DND(unit))

Basically, take those first two lines and add them to the start of the text then replace "Name(unit)" with "name" anywhere else you see it.

Hope that helps

I noticed in raid last night that even though the tanks were set by the raid leader as normal, my pitbull tank group wasn't showing the raid tanks as expected.

The guild healers told me that apparently the API call (or something?) has been changed by blizz, and it's breaking pretty much every addon that tracks tanks automatically. Do you know what they're talking about? Is there a fix possible/planned for this?

The tanks were set MAINTANK or their role was just set to TANK? I'm unaware of an API change regarding raid roster info, so I'm not sure what your guildies are talking about, but setting someone as MT shows that player in a group that is set to only show MTs. https://puu.sh/Bru5J/f3e31283a2.webm

Yes, that's the issue. Even though they're set to MT by the raid leader, they aren't appearing in the pitbull tank group.

Been using Pitbull since wrath, largely with the same settings. So this isn't an issue with the raid leader not setting tanks properly.

As I showed in the clip, it works as expected for me, so the (mostly blizzard) code that controls showing the units is working fine.

Feel free to PM your PB savedvars and tell me what profile and group it is and I'll check it out. Also, if you use alphas make sure the group is enabled and the filter is still set to main tanks (I made some db changes, but not sure how it would cause your issue).

Hiya,

Thanks for the replies. I figured out the issue.

A long time ago, I disabled tank frames on 40-man raids. My guess is that previously, even though raids could flex up to 30 people, they were classified as 20-man raids by the addon (or by the blizz UI, I have no idea).

In any case, the new raid on normal and heroic difficulty is apparently classified as a 40-man raid. Enabling 40-man tank frames solved the issue. Thanks!

Default UI uses the experience bar to display Heart of Azeroth experience progress. Experience bar on player unit frame disappears at max level. Any chance tracking HoA will come to PB?

P.S. Thanks for all your hardwork!

Is it possible to only show and customize my target Buff Debuffs? without having to show them for myself, target of target, party?
I used to do that with this addon for years now but with the new update, it seems like I cannot do that anymore. :(

The aura settings are per layout (as they've always been), so if you use a different layout for player, party, etc, you can configure them independently

Ive been trying to figure out how to make enrage buffs highlight the target frame on my druid just like my shaman does. But either im not doing it right, or this isnt possible within the options.

Any ideas?

Edit: Ah yes UnitTargetsVehicleInRaidUI was added around 7.3 for mechanics like you mentioned. I have a fix that'll I'll test tonight. I should have been paying attention when the SUF and oUF guys were talking about this, lol

the artifact bar does not seem to be properly tracking azerite power. The bar seems to be static and isnt moving when i gain azerite.

Is there a way to have the artifact power bar show numbers instead of just a bar that fills up?
