I think that's a Bartender3 problem, so you best ask the bartender folks to make bartender behave properly with standard mainbar switching.

P.S. Just tested, default download ("Download Now" button) already correctly downloads 0.3. Just the list below isn't updated yet.

New version is uploaded already, just takes a while for curse gaming to show it... version is 0.3 non-beta and should be default download once it shows here.

Alright v0.3 is uploaded and should now switch to ranged bar upon leaving combat if no other target in melee is selected. Also fixed numerous other possible bugs due to combat/ooc confusions.

@Aalwein: Not really, I didn't change any code just fixed bugs. The behavior you have now is equivelant to pre-2.0 except for stuff induced by Blizz's new in-combat restrictions. I can try to see if I can add an extra update when leaving combat, but I can't promise anything. As said a few times now the symptoms are induced by Blizz's restrictions and it may be hard to impossible to get around them. (And I never intended to develop this in the first place ;))

Macro solution to bar switching in combat. Needs 2 keys and includes spams for either. Any solution will require key presses, so this or variations on this is as good as it gets. Automatic switching is history post 2.0.1:

Melee spam:

Code:

/cast [noactionbar:2] Aspect of the Monkey /changeactionbar [noactionbar:2] 2 /stopcasting /castsequence [actionbar:2,harm] Wing Clip; [actionbar:2,harm] Raptor String; [actionbar:2,harm] Mongoose Bite

Ranged spam:

Code:

/cast [noactionbar:1] Aspect of the Hawk /changeactionbar [noactionbar:1] 1 /stopcasting /castrandom [actionbar:1,harm] Aimed Shot; [actionbar:1,harm] Arcane Shot; [actionbar:1,harm] Multi-Shot; [actionbar:1,harm] Silencing Shot

Of course you can change any of this to either just use one specific attack or a subset of the attacks listed here, also in different orders.

@Oreoleo: Bar switching in combat without pressing a key has been disabled by Blizz since 2.0.1. It only switches out of combat.

@Aalwein: That spam line is very very likely not from Range Help, but from another addon. With respect to bar switching. Otherwise same as above. It only switches out of combat. The addon is not designed to switch between combat/non-combat (because it can't switch upon entering combat either). I'm not currently planning to add much functionality at this point.

Alright, I have fixed the latency issue. Range Help 0.2 should not be causing latency at item swap because it doesn't even register for related changes anymore. What happened: It used IsActionInRange() and scanned action bars to find if the action is available. This was slow as apparently now the related auctionbar change event is triggered even if an item is moved from equipt to bag.

In the new version IsSpellInRange() is used which has the positive side-effect that the spell no longer needs to be on any action bar for this to work! And no lag anymore.

Other addons may still have this problem because this change in behavior is new.

Thanks guys. First off I never really intended to develop this as I'm not the original author. I just to quickly try to rescue it. Anyway, I'll see what I can do.

In the meantime, if you have lag issues and don't want the bar switching as it exists now, try the ace version of this called Nudge.

Now to the observations:

• ) Latency when swapping items: Noticed the same but didn't realize it was this addon causing it. I'll look into it.

• ) Bar swapping. It will requiring pressing some key and I don't know if I can manage to easily hook into key-presses for this, I'll give it a quick look but can't promise anything. It may be best to look at macro solutions to achieve this and people learning to spam a key... I know the idea was to avoid having to do that, but alas.
