- battle pet level
- fishing skills if the zone supports fishing: minimum level to be able to fish, minimum level to be able to fish without get-aways and the current fishing skill of the character (color coded to indicate difficulty)
- skinning skills, calculated value showing the minimum skill required to skin a mob of the minimum zone level and the minimum skill required to skin a mob of the maximum zone level (color coded to indicate difficulty)
- road connections, color coded (friendly, contested, hostile)
- transport connections like boats, zeppelins and portals, color-coded (friendly, neutral, hostile)
- instances including group size and level range, color coded to indicate difficulty
- flight nodes, color-coded (friendly, neutral, hostile)
- herbs: required skill level, color-coded to indicate difficulty
- mining nodes: required skill level, color-coded to indicate difficulty
- travel advice: if possible, a travel advice will be composed, using road connections and transports, to travel from the zone the character is in to the zone displayed on the map
Other functionalities:
- minimize button
- optional background with adjustable transparency
- adjustable panel size
- configurable through the WoW Interface menu, allowing to configure the background (on/off, transparency), change the panel size and turn information categories on or off.
- all settings are saved per character

Hi and ty for your reply.
Yup, I did that, but I was just making a suggestion if you ever wanted to develop it further one could automat it like I've seen with some other addons. So you could have the option to show if trained in addition to on and off.
I always do this when I find a new addon I like, make a list of suggestions, but please don't feel like you have to do any of them, or right away. Just something to think about if you want to develop your addon further.
Ah yes, those subzones makes all kinds of trouble, they don't even work properly in game when you click at the map currently as I tried reporting several times in the beta. :)
If full detachment is too much work, just having a few options on where the frame is placed is more than enough, but it's not that important so feel free to ignore my request if it's too much work. :)
LibTourist, that's the database where the info displayed comes from, yes?
Thanks again for your reply and have a nice day!

Suggestions are always welcome, don't get me wrong! I always look into them and see what is (reasonably) possible :-)
I understand now what you mean by auto-hiding not-learned professions. It would actually be pretty simple to implement as the skill level is known. If it's 0 the option to show that profession could be tuned off automatically (and turned on when skill > 0).
Subzones are causing problems, but with every major WoW update new inconsistencies and bugs are introduced you have to deal with as an addon developer. Duplicate zone names is one of them (The Maelstrom is the first), which is pretty annoying as LibTourist uses the zone name as key in the zones collection.
I also noticed that the MAX_PLAYER_LEVEL variable in the WoW API is still set to 60. New Cata zones display the recommended level on the map, but older zones do not. And for Vashj'ir WoW reports level 80 - 90 as recommended level, while the level cap is 85. Several dungeons have been split up (like Maraudon and Stratholme) but for some of these separated instances I can find data in the database but for others I cannot. And so on...
LibTourist is indeed the library that provides all the data and I am the only maintainer for that library. So, every new expansion I first have to update and release LibTourist before I can release a new version of ZoneInfo. ZoneInfo itself usually doesn't need much work. However, due to an unhandled exception in the build process I can't release LibTourist at the moment, which kinda sucks. I have submitted a ticket at CurseForge yesterday and I'm now waiting for a response.

Ofc, I just wanted to make it absolutely clear that it was just suggestions as the sheer amount might seem a bit much. :)

Posted Jun 27, 2023Hello, this started Tuesday 6/20/23; the addon itself works, but unless I disable it Blizzard's "Options" for "Game" shows the first time I open it on a character and then disappears for every attempt to open it after that. It also disables Altoholic's ability to show how many of an item you have, such as Saronite Ore 24 in bags, 3 in bank, 14 in a different character's bank. Weird, I know, but I went through every one of my addons and it is when this one, and only this one, is disabled that those 2 separate issues are suddenly fixed.

Posted Jul 7, 2023In reply to BooPuppy:
The weird side effects in other addons are probably caused by a disrupted and therefore incomplete initialization. This is due to a lua error in ZoneInfo during initialization, which in turn is caused by Blizzard removing a function that ZoneInfo used while building the options screen.
This has been fixed in the new 3.4.2 release, so those side effects should be gone :-)

Hi Anakia!
Thank you :-)
You cannot change the font but you change the font size by changing the panel size in ZoneInfo's settings. Open the Options panel in the game menu and you'll find ZoneInfo on the Addons tab.
Does that help?

Good point! I fixed that for ZoneInfo 2 (the retail version) by prefixing the variables with "ZI" because I ran into a problem with that.
Will do the same for the Classic version in the next release.
