DistanceDisplay

A visual indicator for distance for Turtle WoW

Displays a distance indicator. The indicator color is changed according to range between you and your target. For Line of Sight, the range text is displayed red if your target is LoS.

IMPORTANT: This addon uses UNITXP_SP3. Without this client mod, it will NOT work.

Ranged: https://github.com/allfoxwy/UnitXP_SP3/releases/tag/v19 -- Recommend using this for ranged classes, as this is precise for ranged distancing.

Melee: https://github.com/allfoxwy/UnitXP_SP3/releases/tag/v18 -- Recommend using this one for melee classes. The current formula does not accurately calculate melee distancing. This older formula does a better job, however it does have issues with larger enemy models. It gets the job done for the most part.

To swap between the two, you just replace the UNITXP_SP3.dll and restart your client

Commands: /dd - Displays commands

/dd -- Will scale the indicator from 0.1 to 1. Forewarning, it moves the box when it rescales, need to fix this but it works for the time being. Example: /dd 0.5 -- scales to 50%

/dd lock

/dd unlock

/dd show

/dd hide

/dd autohide

TODO: Class specific range indicators. Will take personal request

Known Issues

  • There are issues with melee range using the new UnitXP precise distance formula. For this, I am going to add in a distance modifier. For ranges within melee range (1-10 yards), there is a 2.5 yard underestimation. This is due to melee targeting using a complex formula for estimating distances.
  • There are issues with AOE spell casting. It is largely based on several complex distance formulas. Unfornuately, this cannot be fixed at the moment. However, I will consider adding in a 1.5 yard adjustment for AOE abilities. I've only tested this on a mage, but there seems to be 1.5 yards of distance that are not accounted for using UnitXP.
