I have a new "experimental" addon on curseforge that I would like to integrate with Grid2 (based on some requests from players). This addon attaches indicators to nameplates as another means of graphically indicating cluster information obtained from your aoeheals module:

https://wow.curseforge.com/addons/clusterhelper/

Please consider my proposal to add the following patch which will enable Grid2 to send the required messages to my addon (only if it is installed/enabled). I have already been speaking with the author of VuhDo, and have submitted a functionally identical integration patch for VuhDo as well. I am aiming to offer similar functionality and ease of setup to users of both Grid2 and VuhDo before I upload finished documentation and promote this to beta. Thanks for your time, and I appreciate your consideration.

New announcement that unit positional data will no longer be available in raids, dungeons and competitive instances as of 7.1:

Am I correct in assuming that this is going to permanently break the aoeheals module? If so, then this request (and my entire project) are pointless.

@lifegutter: Go

Yes, AoeHeals module and another indicators like direction Arrow will be almost useless in legion (they will work only outside instances).

Thanks for your response. In light of this, I will withdraw my request for now and follow up with you in future if they change decision. For now I am rewriting my addon to work differently and without filtering against cluster unit data. Good luck with the outcome for your module!
