Any addon out there what will allow other members of my party, probably using the same mod, to focus on my tabbed target?

Coders, is it possible to make something like this?

    due to API restrictions that we cant even see other people's buffs i highly doubt this will be possible.

    Addons can't even communicate with each other or send chat messages.

    Nightblades have 'marked for death', I guess that's the nearest in-game equivalent

    Since we dont have nameplates, and it can be hard to call a target in PvP was hoping for the ability to share my tabbed target easy...

    I am about 90% certain addons could communicate using the Guild Lists Member Notes (one of the few things they can write too). But I am not sure how much data you can share this way. It is is certainly not suiteable for something like this that needs realtiem updates and has to work cross guild borders.

    The main issues is figuring out who the "target" is. We would need an unambigious identifier that is valid for all clients (no mater in wich order ingame elements were created). All addons so far only have to identify targets across the same client.

    You do realize what you asking for, right? An ability for bots to assist a leading bot that will greatly simplify scripting and exponentially increase the number of abusers. Also an ability for multiboxers to actually multibox leading one toon on the main rig and a bunch of support following and assisting... Do you really want it?

    Except other people can't see that Mark.

    Back Lash and Quick Siphon work well as call target skills.

    He is asking for a simple feature - put your "locked target" on the target of the group leader. Something every Tab Targetting MMO has.
    Wich is propably the main issue - eso is not tab targetting (even if you can "lock" a target using Tab).

    If it can be done with addons it is not suiteable for botting, goldspamming or cheating. The constraints of the API make sure of that.
    And he clearly asked if it is possible within the Constraints of the API.

    Bots don't need an addon for this.
