InCombatIndicator
InCombatIndicator displays "In combat" if you are in combat in a movable frame. Optionally it can also display "Out of combat" when not in combat, but this is off by default. The frame can be moved, resized and locked.
Type: /ici
for options.
It's meant as a simple, flexible additional way to indicate if you are in combat independent of unit frames, where this information is often displayed by the crossing sword icon (default UI) or some other mean (color for some unit frames).
I've been using this addon for a while now, and I really like it. One suggestion I have is that this would make for a great databroker plugin. I currently keep the font size set to 12, show always, and have it positioned over a blank space on one of my broker bars, and it looks great like that.
Cheers :)
Would be even cooler if it could optionally also display your afk/dnd state, since the indicator on the nametag above my character's head is sometimes inaccurate (eg after I die).
Is this addon something like that? If so, i would love it.
I was wondering if there was a way to be notified when my pet is out of combat (since I don't really have to be in combat for my pet to be out of combat)?
New version that uses Ace3 and updated libraries in general. Also options can now be found in Blizzard's addon config gui. Libraries are now included so unlike the previous versions this should work out of the zip.
Uploaded updated version for 2.2. Also includes font selection now. Needs Ace's Shared Media Library but works without.
