[Addon] Pawkette's Scrolling Battle Text

Pawkette's Scrolling Battle Text
I came back to the game edition™

1.5 Branch: GitHub
1.6 Branch: GitHub

I designed PSBT to be very modular. This allows me to quickly create new parts to the addon without having to figure out where they fit in. Also, the addon uses lots of pooling. Alpha Animations, Translation Animations, and Labels are all pooled and constantly reused. This means less creation at runtime, and less memory usage overall. Also I worked in a way to allow the garbage collector to clean up any unused members of those pools when necessary, which should also reduce memory usage.

Parabola animations are also precomputed based on settings and a fixed number of translation points, this means that all we're doing at runtime is playing animations using Zenimax's own animation system. No calculation is happening in Lua for positioning.

Modules:

• Combat - Show you information about combat events, damage, healing, hots, dots~
• Ultimate - can you use it yet?!
• Auras - effect gain and loss
• Experience - level up more informed
• LowSomething - your something is low! be warned.
• Infamy - replaces the infamy meter and shows updates in PSBT (1.6 only)
• Debug - now you can tell me if I'm a bad programmer

Known Issues:

• French and German are only partially supported.
• Spanish and Russian are missing.
• Occasionally edit layout breaks and you can't drag anything.

As you can see the addon is designed around 4 primary "scroll areas". If you've used MSBT in World of Warcraft, you're probably familiar with the concept.



Along with plenty of options.

I figured I'd bump this because I'm back to updating it

It's nice, I might switch to it over FTC because FTC buff tracker is obnoxious, I skipped through tiny parts of the video though, is it possible to change the color of the text?

Currently you can change Damage / Healing / 'unassigned' colors

Alright, I just need coordinating colors for stuff, so if I was losing stamina, it'd be green, losing health, it'd be red, etc etc. OCD like that, currently not a whole lot of addons let me do it, using Wykkyd's bar and FTC for the scrolling numbers.

After much complaining around launch, I actually removed stamina drain because it pissed people off.

Pawkette

Oh yeah, I made sure it works on 1.6 PTS tonight

I'm having the same issue as the poster above. The addon shows up in the addon list ingame, but there's no actual combat text ingame nor any options in addon settings.

EDIT: Unfortunately I'm having the same issue as some of the above posters, PSBT is installed and shows up in the addon list in-game as active but does not work and there is no settings window.
