Hey all, wondering if anyone else has had this come up. Got SAA installed and it worked very well after i learned what I was doing setting it up... However, something weird...... The next day, went to enter an instance and not only did SAA not automatically work, but it is no longer listed at all in with my other add-ons..... any ideas???

I have a problem using this mod. The problem with the bars overlapping eachother

How can I fix this?
Thanks!

Just a heads up, though you may well already know about it.

With the 5 minute FF, I get an empty FF box on screen at all times, then casting a mf or is shows up momentarily, then all bars are gone.

I just disabled the FF box, now my MF/IS and Eclipse boxes are working fine.

The Faerie Fire spells were consolidated into one rank this patch. The spell number is 770.

Edit SquackAndAwe.lua, and modify the "SquawkAndAwe.combat.faerie = " line near the top to "SquawkAndAwe.combat.faerie = 770".

Briefly tested it, seemed to do the right thing.

I fixed the other thing myself, and it turned out to have nothing to do with SAA, so this just turned into a useless thanks post. Please delete.

The bar length remains the same as if it were 40 seconds, just has a 5 minute timer and the animation is slower to reflect it.

Hmm. Suppose that works for now. I'd prefer to have it work the other way (and, in fact, that all bars over a certain duration worked that way). Perhaps I'll add that in with the update.

My S&A has been giving me lau errors and will not work - Have looked for updates but I realize from what you say that you will not be in to take a look until today.

Great addon and would not know what to do if it went the way of the dodo.

Thanks

I read that you weren't going to support saa because squawkhard was available. I used this addon last night and I don't like it much. I really couldn't understand what the addon was telling me and the options/configuration isn't very user friendly imo. I like the bars. I think your addon is superior because you can just glance at it and know where you are in terms of timers. I don't like an addon that tells me to cast something. Cast IS, MF, Wrath, eclipse procs and I only know that eclipse has proc'd because I see the icon over my head. SH doesn't tell me that eclipse has proc'd it just tells me to cast SF, then in the middle of eclipse if IS drops off all it will show is the IS icon. I know longer know where I am in the eclipse proc or if MF is still up (without searching for the debuff my target) or where I'm at in the eclipse cool down. All that happens is until I cast IS SH doesn't give me any more information.

To use SH I'm going to have to use another addon that will at least give me timer bars for IS and MF.

Oh no. I do intend to keep maintaining SAA. Heck, I still use it myself and any time it doesn't work properly I fumble pretty horribly. I just meant that SH does what I'd been planning to do with a future version, and unfortunately now that it exists I can't justify the time expenditure to reproduce it natively. I use both, though SH is really just a double-check in some of the timing-critical areas (less than 4s left on the cooldown, but is there enough time for another SF?).

Band, you didn't give me much to work with. If the Lua error is something like "attempt to concatenate to namestring, a nil value" or similar, it's likely the issue mentioned above, that there is only one rank of FF now. Unchecking the FF bar will squelch the bug until I can get a release up.

As for the UnitAura() API change, you shouldn't notice any issue if you're the only moonkin in a group (for the technical people, the return parameter isMine was changed to give a unitID instead. Since I only check if the return is not-false, it will consider every spellcast to be yours until the change is released). I'm not sure what behavior exhibits if there's more than one moonkin in a group. UnitAura() returns debuffs by its own index. If your own debuffs are always reported first, there should be no real issues. If it returns them based on duration left, you may get jumpy debuff bars. Buffs should never be an issue, though, since it only checks you anyway. In either case, it's poor code to leave it so I'll get it fixed once I get a chance.

What wasn't working? The whole mod? Did you have the FF bar enabled? I haven't had a chance to play with the mod yet, I barely got the rest of my UI up and running by midnight last night (still not fully fixed). Any information people can provide should help me track it down faster once I get the chance. If you're getting lua errors, please try to make a note of what the error says.

[edit] As for SH, I found most of the options fairly straightforward. The first few (I think) define the thresholds for when you'll stop refreshing DoTs during the various Eclipses, I.E. Insect Swarm Wrath Eclipse Threshold (or whatever the name really is, I don't have a screenshot at work) of 6 means that it won't prompt you to cast IS if Solar Eclipse is up and has less than 6s remaining. I maxed out the threat slider, or did whatever the help bubble said to disable it entirely, since I don't care about that at all.
