Great Addon

One question - is it possible to add an stack indicator (1-3) for Lifebloom this would help much in raid healing and give me the chance to deactivate pitbull.

I added code now to Healbot so I know who I am targeting. I place a white box around the person I'm targeting.

Very nice addon. I would really like one addition: a red box around the healer's current target. Some healers click on raid members only to target them. However, if u move ur mouse too quickly and click it, sometimes this doesnt work. And I end up healing the wrong target.

Once i ended up healing a totem because i often click both mouse buttons to move. My raid didnt think that was funny.

Another Request:

Firstly, the addition of 'Focus' as a box (Just call it focus as the target... no need to show the name)

I know healbot is only meant for healing, thus the name... but it's a crying shame I cannot use it for some offensive targeting. My main idea here was to use Set Focus on an enemy and have the tank being my current selected target. This way I could manage my shackle target, heal the tank with keys AND do raid healing all at the same time.

I guess it would simpler not to expand healbot further as it is really excellent at what it does. But I've tried Xperl/Perl/Pitbull + Clique and it really does not give me all I need... (for healing)

Anyway, just my thoughts... but first point I think is a useful addition.

Got a small request and implementation suggestion for HealBot, I would like a way for healbot to show buffs that are 'about' to expire as not being there at all.

The details are that buffs that I cast with a duration longer (or equal to) 10min be shown as absent if their timeLeft is less than, say 8 minutes.
(I chose 8mins as the avg duration of a normal boss fight in SSC/Tk)

The code that I added/changed to HealBot.lua : line 1635

    while true do
      bName,_,_,_,duration,timeLeft = UnitBuff(unit,icb)
      if bName then
        -- is this a soon to be expired longer-term buff that I cast?
        if (duration and timeLeft and duration>=10*60 and timeLeft<8*60) then
          -- (dont set) PlayerBuffs[bName]=false
        else
          PlayerBuffs[bName]=true
        end
        icb = icb + 1;
      else
        do break end
      end
    end

But this could perhaps be implemented as a per-buff option, and these times could be set someplace?

I think im in love with you :P

Interface\AddOns\HealBot.lua:1182: table index is nil

getting lots of errors with this new one. :-\

First off I just want to thank you for a GREAT addon!

This addon would be Perfect if you could add in a counter for

lifebloom as well as a timer for the duration of druid HoT's.

Also, I've noticed that some HoT's don't show up next to the

players name and some do. I speculate that this is caused

by throwing two hots consecutively and the mod doesn't

recognize the second one in such close succession.

the newest update is broken and I cannot get the previous one... Arrg! /cry.
/wrists!
Running a healing pally with the default settings for same. It refuses to heal a warrior in combat. no right click for any class... It will work to cast a heal one click... then the next time on the same bar it does not. Please, PLEASE roll back to previous update untill you get this sorted out.

Thanks

I cant heal without it and I have kara this weekend....

When out of group or raid we were able to target 1 npc or player and it would show as a target button, this option is gone? was that by design?

Can we please not do a predefined ctrl-alt-right click to set targets? Can it be a spell combo option where we can define it? please?

Maybe a high light option for the selected targets.

I LOVE HEALBOT - BEST ADDON I HAVE EVER FOUND - THANK YOU - Thank you for keeping it updated and thank you for your efforts to maket his addon work so well - I have one simple request - that can make it just that much better - I have been playing with an add-on "quartz" - This add-on basically allows you to cast spells much faster - by giving you a latency monitor on your cast bar... This in some cases can cut your spell cast time by 25% - there by increasing the number of times you can cast that spell (great for DPS) but it would be very cool to add this to Healbot - when in conjunction with the Quartz add-on you could heal even faster - ;-) The combo would be deadly -

It seems like it would be very simple - Quartz adds a "/stopcasting" that stops the current cast when you cast the next spell - by adding a /stopcasting to healbot - it seems like it would work very well with quartz to decrease cast time.

This could be good folks - ;-)

If you ever read this Strife, I love your addon and use and reccomend it religeously. With the sucking up aside there is only one thing I wish Healbot would do, and I think its possible but I'm sure you could tell me this --- As a paladin sometimes hybrid classes want different blessings, of course I have healbot programmed to bless based on class and adjust as needed.

My suggestion is to add a [Blessings] tab if it detects your class as Paladin, or as a possible plugin to Healbot.

All it would do is dynamically list people in your group/raid; and you would have the option to select a single target blessing for individual players, which would prioritize over the Greater blessing. For example:

2 Druids in raid, one resto, one feral. Resto wants Wisdom, Feral wants Kings. You have "Greater Blessing of Kings" + "Druid" on the buffs tab. The [Blessings] tab could list each member, and lets say the resto druid is named IMATREE. The Blessings tab could list IMATREE and I could select "Blessing of Wisdom" next to his name.

Now, when healbot checks for buffs (out of combat for example), I could click the feral druid and it would cast Greater Blessing of Kings, like normal. However IMATREE's name plate is still identifying that he is unbuffed so if I were to click his name it would cast "Blessing of Wisdom" and the name plate would revert to normal.

I understand programming to a degree but dont understand the language WOW addons are coded in, and if this is possible it would help paladins GREATLY, hybrid classes (and sometimes picky players) want a blessing other than his/her fellow "classmates" want.

If you read this, or have the interest /ability/ inability/desire, either way to program something like this email me at tecora8@hotmail.com

Thanks so much for the hard work ^_~

Best addon Author on Curse! He deserves all your Praise!

Showing a timer on the hot icon would really be a nice and helpful feature. I already tried to add it myself but failed. :(

hey, i love healbot continued. it's the BEST healing addon for druids. bar none. however i wish you would make 2 little improvements. for one. you know how healbot uses the fade out timer when you cast a hot on a player? i wish it would use the clock type buff icon. like they use on players portraits now. that would make it much easier to know when lifebloom is going to expire cause it's so critical to keep it up. it'd be nice if healbot had a more accurate display for buffs like that. the second one. it stops tracking people needing healing when you switch to bear or cat, all the healing bars go blank like everyone just got healed. so then i cant see who needs healing, and so i dont switch out and heal them. oops :) if you improve both those you will be every resto druids hero.

Nice and useful addon, and also good usability... BUT.. (there is always 'but' things), it have some problems to update characters when raid leader is mixing groups. Sometimes I have four extra persons and sometimes just names are wrong place.

Have used HealBot for some time but have encountered a problem and would like some help. With the bot loaded, when I make a kill, it shows the target with life left. When I loot it, it shows dead. I really like the bot but cannot run when farming and makes it a little difficult in instances. I have removed and d/l several times to try and fix the problem with the same results.
