Natur EnemyCastBar
----
== Description: ==
Shows Debuffs (e.g. Sheep timers), Casts, Gains, Stuns, DoTs, BossTimers,
Cooldowns, Diminishing Returns by lovely colored CastBars - Peace :D
Supports 'target' and 'focus'. Recognizes unknown spell casts, stops and
delays!
=> Use "/necb" or the minimap icon to call the menue.
----
== Features (see "/necb help" for commands): ==
* Greatly improved AddOn with regard to garbage creation and CPU usage (version
8.3.7 ; compare 8.3.7 with 7.9.8 yourself ;-) )
* Options may be set through a GUI matching the game's design. They are
outsourced into a separate AddOn which is loaded on demand.
* Complete control of five shared profiles to fastly load/save and copy your
settings!
* Offers a CounterStrike-like sound system that plays several sounds for
killing blow events!
* Even unknown spell casts will trigger a bar, thanks to the new WoW 2.x API.
Delays and CastStops are detected, too!
* Detects Debuffs/Buffs which return a duration and adapts CastBars to it!
* CastBars are even updated if Debuffs/Buffs are renewed. NECB checks for
Resists/Misses, reads stack numbers and applied Debuffs for optimum results.
* Addon splitted into separated load on demand modules
* Automatic RaidSpell broadcasts through AddOns channel! (Users with a latency
more than 500ms won't broadcast!)
* The CastBars will be pulled together if there is one bar deleted between
others. (If CastBars last longer than 1 second.)
* CastBars will be sorted by color
* CastBar types may be separated into different movable frames!
* Afflictions/ (Spell)Debuffs implemented! This shows you how long "Shackle
Undead" or "Polymorph" last!
* Class specific Diminishing Return timers which are only displayed for the
class that can use this spell. The DeBuff duration IS recalculated by this
timer!
* Detects almost every Stun and triggers a global stun diminishing return
timer
* Icons to the left of the CastBars!
* CastBars watch your DoTs!
* Separated FPS Bar updated every frame and a latency bar
* Combopoints are taken into account for many spells
* You see some(!) spell cooldowns and detected cooldowns are stored into a
dynamic database for all spells around you. The cooldown is displayed once you
target the player/mob and cleared if you change targets.
* The Addon unregisters all Events if it is disabled or if the user gets a
loading screen to minimize CPU load!
* Checks the version of group- and guildmembers and also has a button to
whisper all users with old versions of NECB to update!
* You may trigger CastBars on your Party/RaidMembers screens. They have to
toggle this feature on and receive your input via ".countmin", ".countsec" or
".repeat"
* CastBars with a total time >= 20 seconds will Flash if they reached the last
20% AND their time left is smaller than 10 seconds.
* All Fading/ Flashing of CastBars and the collapse animation of the options
frame are FPS independent until the framerate drops below 5(fps).
* You may disable single(!) spells and save/load your selection ('SHIFT
RightClick' feature see '/necb help')
* A checkbox to disable CastBars for 'gains' (like HoTs or 'Blink')
separately.
* A checkbox to flip over the CastBars' order.
* The CastBar's width can be modified!
* You may customize the CastBar Colors!
* A Checkbox to enable 'global Mob outs'. If this one is enabled 'Mob outs'
(which are 'Polymorph', 'Shackle Undead' etc.) will trigger a castbar even if
the affected mob is NOT your current target.
* A slider to set the space between the CastBars!
* A slider to chose how many CastBars are displayed at once
* Afflictions/Gains which fade off will have their bars deleted! (Even if you
don't target your enemy anymore.)
* Raidboss Debuffs supported! E.g. Vaelastrasz (BA), Razorgore (Conflagration),
(Shadow of) Ebonroc, Geddon (Living Bomb), (Delusions of) Jin'do...
* A minimap button (movable/ hideable)
* A fullreset-button
* Settings will be saved per character
* Mainly the german client is supported
* Many new Spells added to the database regularly
* Channel parser for NECB's broadcasts
* Info box about the LUA5.1 Garbage Collector status!
* And more...
----
== Supportet spells: ==
* All supported spells are listed in NECB's checkbox tooltips ;-)
----
== These are not bugs: ==
* Spells won't trigger CastBars in many cases if you are not near enough for
them to appear in your combatlog (e.g. Chromaggus). Use "/necb setrange cmax" or
"necb setrange allmax" to increase the range.
* Spell cooldowns: Only spells with a castime or "gains" work. And no, I won't
add more spell-checks to support those spells. (Too many complications :/ )
* If Mobs with a Debuff have the same name, it is (mostly) enough to have one
Mob's debuff (or death) fade to clear the bar even without a target!
* If someone does not inflict your current target, but has debuffed a Mob with
the name name, a bar will appear
* Conclusion: Expect strange bar behaviors if there are mobs with the same name
:D That lies mostly in the nature of the combatlog!
* It works best if the same known debuffs are only casted on one mob if there
are more mobs with the same name in combatlog-range ;-)
* Remember, some combatlog-messages (and with it the castbar clear or popup)
only appear if you are very close to your enemy! (E.g. desheep.)
