It works for 3.0.2, and as far as I know, there weren't any major UI changes in 3.0.3. I'd expect it to work for 3.0.3.

If there's a combat log entry for it, yes.

I was missing the feature to whisper to target.
However after a 15 Minute .lua crashcourse and my old "You have the Stone"-Macro from Vashj the results were:

Open with Wordpad:
\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\ThatJustHappened\ThatJustHappened.lua

Search for:

Code: Select all

   elseif channel == "SAY" then
      SendChatMessage(msg, channel);

Add after:

Code: Select all

elseif channel == "TARGET" then
      if UnitName("target") ~= nil then
         if UnitIsFriend("player","target") then
            if UnitIsPlayer("target")then   
               SendChatMessage(msg, "WHISPER", nil, UnitName("target"));
            end
         end
      else
         DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(yellow..msg);
      end

Safe file.
(Re-)start WoW.

Now by writing TARGET instead of YELL ect. the target gets a whisper. If no target is specified you will get the message, in all other cases there will be no message.
iex: /tjh rule SPELL_CAST_START;MyName;;Lichtblitz;;TARGET;Haha i can heal and Tank!
(Which will spam like crazy, just an example.) ^^
Use, of course, at your own risk, ect. pp.
Should not work if you are using any sort of Unitframe-klicking-stuff, could be added by focus whisper or stuff like that, however my lua knowledge fails at this point. ^^

[moduspwnens]

stuff

I love you. I've been wanting this feature forever!

Oh, wait, is it whispering MY target, or the target of the SPELL?

[andz]

Your target. ^^ Its of limited use, but i use it for my Hand of Sacrifice and Hand of Salvation and things like that.

Meh. lol

If you grab arg7 in EventScan() and make some if-then checks to avoid errors, and assign it to another temporary variable, i manage to get it to DefualtChat, however fail miserably when try to whisper.

[Fathammer]

So could you create one that has all your rules in it already so that all we had to do was download your copy and all of them are already in it??

[_Chloe]

moduspwnens, is the original author still updating this? I could make a SVN patch file and send it to him with this feature in there.... and make it work using the target of your spell.

My respect for this addon increased two-fold after last night's BT raid.

We have 1 paladin tank in our guild who runs semi-regularly with us, and is fairly well geared. Well, he cannot stand not being the best tank for the job (despite being absent for 2 months, during which time I geared up and surpassed him). As such, he constantly taunts to increase his threat against mobs I am tanking and at least "look" like he has pulled aggro over even me.

Well, to help solve this issue I simply added the righteous defense rule to announce to /say *Source has used Righteous Defense!

I think it goes without saying that after seeing that spammed like 8 times in 3 pulls, it rarely appeared for the rest of the raid, as did the number of mobs he was tanking.

This is working great! the 'Stunned' messages work extremely well to notify healers that i'm about to take a lot more damage. Lifesaver in BT for sure.

I have one issue with the taunt rules though. I removed the 'name' requirement, cuz I run with several different tanks, and it also helps me see it in pugs.

However, it now spams (have target set to SELF just in case ) that hunters' pets are taunting. Unsuccessfully ofc, cuz my threat is way higher, but still. When I ask the hunters they ensure me their pets aren't using their taunt. I am a bit unsure about what to believe though.
Sofar I have seen it on Cat and RockHound pets (if that's any helpfull).

Can anyone confirm that it's a bug or are these hunters just lieing to me?

If their pets were taunting, wouldn't it be picked up in the combat log? I'd think maybe WWS or even a quick manual parse would show it.

True,I'll try and do a manual one tonight. Though from what I can tell TJH is nothing more then what i'd do manually.

Could it be the new pets have spells that are called growl or taunt aswell, but are not actual taunts?
