Simple Range Indicator
This is an ace3 version of the very old simple range addon. Now the frame can be locked and moved by mouse and commandline arguments not requiring external addons like moveanything anymore.
Type /sri or /simplerangeindicator to get all options.
When installing this while having the older simplerange, delete the simplerange folder to avoid trouble. The new folder name is simplerangeindicator.
It now contains optional SharedMediaLibrary support as well as RangeCheck-2.0 support and libraries are embedded.
GUI configuration via blizzard's addon UI is also supported.
The addon relies on class and ability independent ways to get ranges. For now I don't plan to change that, but maybe if I find time. The main idea here is to get a rough feel for ranges more than exact numbers. There is in fact another addon called RangeHelp which allows you to link a range indicator to abilities. It's mostly meant for hunters but I have used it with other classes. Maybe that one is more close to what you are looking for?
Im sorry, disregard my last message. Can you just make it so we have the ability to modify / add ranges?
Can you please give it the ability, or make another version that will make the range to 30 meters instead of 28? I am a warlock and most of my casts are up to 30 meters. This is a very nice mod.
Minor bug preventing settings to be saved properly. Fixed now. Version 2.1b.
Ok it's been long and I always wanted this. Now this little addon can move itself around. Delete the old simplerange folder. Now it's called SimpleRangeIndicator, to match the small InCombatIndicator I hacked.
Type /sri to get options. The main ones are:
/sri lock
For locking and unlocking the frame. And
/sri font text <number>
To change the font size. Enjoy.
Released a version where the range frame will no longer capture mouse clicks, so you can click at stuff behind the display.
@Naddral: works fine for me. It's the very bottom of the move anything list if you just type /move
It's not at the bottom of move anything for me either ??? argh SR is currently in a very anoying spot
If any body does have the problem that i had which was moving the frame and couldnt find it on the moveanything list( you need an addon called moveanything in order to move the SimpleRange frame) type this command: /move RangerFrame tehn press enter, move the frame where you want , then right click on the frame, then your done, =)
have a screenshot please?
Thanks Elisia...... I have downloaded moveanything but there is no mention of RangerFrame in it. Am I missing something?
You need to get the moveanything addon to move it. The name of the frame is RangerFrame.
Is there a simple way of moving the display... at the moment it is hidden beneath one of my other mods.
This addon only gives rough ranges based on what can be extracted from one function that does give them in these quantities. There is no way to discriminate easily other granulatities. Anyway, I'm not the original author, just resurrecting this for a little extra range info. Try range help or nudge to find the 41 yard cutoff point.
Are there settings I'm missing? It detects ranges to 28yds, then gives the symbol ">28" for anything beyond. I can't tell if I'm still in range to hit (max range 41yds).
