PitBull4_AuraBar

Table of Contents

This project is abandoned and its default file will likely not work with the most recent version of World of Warcraft. Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.

This is a continuation of PitBull_LifebloomBar, but more flexible, to use with ckknight's new PitBull4. Since botch AuraBar and PitBull4 are still beta, do not expect everything to work all the time.

AuraBar allows for additional bars to be displayed, each tracking the duration of your buff on the unit, to allow you to quickly assess the status of your hots/dots.

Features:
-Watching all of your buffs and debuffs on all units PB4 provides
-Limit the timer bars lenght, to have all hots/dots an the same timescale
-Choose a custom bar color, or have it green/yellow/red depending on time remaining!

Feedback of any kind is very welcome!

I love this addon but I would like to add in some text to show the duration left on spells. Obviously we cant use dogtags anymore so what would the lua code be for it?

Well... I thought I'd stop play WoW... but I didn't. =) Here's a new version of AuraBar. You now have a new option to show other player'ss buffs, instead of only your own.

Note that this is (currently) only useful for buffs unique to a target, like Weakened Soul. If you track all player's lifebloom, I do not know which duration will actually be shown if there are multiples.

This still being updated? Working fine now but I hate when stuff stops working all of a sudden so wondering if I should start looking for a similar addon for cataclysm.

I have stopped playing WoW for now, so there will be no more updates before Cataclysm, sorry. But I am planning to return for cCtaclysm, and since I cannot possibly heal without this addon, it will get updated then. =)

Hi Vaeyl, just getting into Pitbull for the first time, moving from Xperl and ran across your module. Love it so far, but if no one else has requested it, I at least would greatly appreciate the ability to track other players buffs. As a resto shaman, seeing who else has ES in the raid before re-casting mine on hectic fights could be quite useful.

Thanks!

I have a problem with the rejuvenation buff.
In french client, the buff from the new healing idol has the same name than the spell. Is there a way to differentiate them (i tried with the spell rank [Rejuvenation(Rank 15)], but it didn't work)?
AuraBar always show me the idol proc, so i can't rely on it to know if i can swiftmend or not :/

Hi!
I tried using the spellID, but there seems to be no way to get this id via the ingame-API. Currently, I do not know how to differentiate between two buffs having the same name....
Any ideas?

Yes, I can. But it does not do me any good, since I cannt use the ingame UnitBuff function to get information about a buff via the spellID. UnitBuff uses the buffs name. =/

They put in a lot of effort to remove the need of translations, e.g. the new combatlog format, they removed babble.classes iirc, and so on, but unitaura still returns NAME instead of spellID. It has been around for ages to changed that ;)

http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=16904201555&sid=1

"Make UnitAura return and accept spellids."

Never saw a blue answer for that

Strange... that works for me. I'll check, though.

I've been using this addon for a long time (back when it was designed for lifebloom in pitbull 3) and i'm glad to see it expanded to work with any buff, thanks for the work.

I am having a problem however: the the empty opacity doesn't seem to be working. It's working fine for the other pitbull bars, but not the ones from the AuraBar addon.

Vaeyl,
Perhaps I am missing something, but I have been unable to get Aurabar to track the Weakened Soul debuff. I assume this is because you only track beneficial auras on friendly players. I would find it very useful to be able to track this debuff, as it is very important for discipline priests. Or I might just be missing something silly.

Thanks for your work, this addon does a great job of providing important information at a glance.

Yeah, you are right.
I'll add the possibility to track Debuffs on Friendly targets and Buffs on Enemy ones. Thanks for pointing that out!

Vaeyl, perhaps in an upcoming version, you could include the option to include a small text within the bar showing the amount of time left for the aura. For example, I'd like to know whether the amount of time left on my lifebloom gives me enough time for a regrowth, nourish, or whether I have to swiftmend. Cheers!
