JoGroup

Version: 1.38

by: JoKim [More]

For a long time now I've been puzzled as to why there aren't more addons like this available...
Sure there's the big ones like FTC, but they are a whole "package" of several addons in one so to speak. But what if for each of those modules you already have another addon you prefer? Still use the big one only for groupframes?
Another point was that none of the groupframes addons I could find displayed @UserIDs, only Characternames. Which is what started me looking at lua code and eventually deciding to just make an addon myself.

I hope you will find this addon useful. I still have a lot planned for this addon, so work will continue with adding new features (and squashing bugs

)

People were asking me to add support for JoGroup in Group Food & Drink Buffs but now I can work on my other projects instead. See ya next year!

Hmm, I think I may have broken that by adding the tooltips XD
Will check and fix in the morning, thanks!

Edit: Fixed in 1.11

raspberry Forum posts: 2 File comments: 14 Uploads: 0	please show Health Regen from Mutagen 1st: I Love this Addon. I was looking for a groupframe addon which shows me the roles of the player, especially Healer and Tank. LUI and AU dont show this. I was nearly up to patch it myself. Than I found this one. So thank you for this nice addon. Now I'm only missing a reliable report of health regen. lui seems buggy (idk) and I dont trust aui. Often in combat i dont see any signs of mutagen on my mates. In your to-do List is this on the frist place. Regen/degen arrows Cool. I'm looking forward to test it. Greetings

Fixed in the next version. (1.06)

Right now it's set to update health whenever the game sends out info (event) that health has been changed. In other words: that's as fast as it goes (as I understand it, please correct me if I'm wrong). Now the default UI and I'm guessing some other addons like LUI too, put an animation in between updates, making it look like it goes smoothly, when it still gets the exact same updates.

Tbh I haven't made up my mind yet, I'd have to learn more about how animations work here, the last thing I want is for it to become inaccurate because I'm trying too hard to make it look good. First thing on my list is figuring out the regen/degen animating arrows, so I'll be learning about it anyways, and if it works fine, I'll see about healthanimation too.

It's earned a place in my addon list for sure.

Thanks again! I'd been thinking about that, but hadn't found that function yet.

The class icon and cp level icon can also be put inside the health bar or made optional.

A compacter version is definitely something I'm willing to experiment with once the biggest issues are out of the way.

If they are set prefer account names, then use the current format of "@account (character)", but if they are set to prefer character names, you can format using "character (@account)". The names that people see on nameplates and in the chat window are controlled by the ZO_ShouldPreferUserId() setting, and it makes it easier to match those names with the names being shown in the group frame if the group frame followed that setting as well.

I have a couple of small cosmetic suggestions to make:

First, a minor bug fix: when someone joins the group, the name in the chat log will look something like, "Character Name^Fx".

The "^Fx" (or "^Mx") at the end is a tag indicating the gender of the character, and it's there because some of the game's text formatting functions can supply gender-specific pronouns. You use the ZO_FormatUserFacingCharacterName function, but this function doesn't use (or remove) the gender tag. What ZO_FormatUserFacingCharacterName does is add a decorative icon to the name if the game is in gamepad mode (in keyboard mode, the function does absolutely nothing).

The way to remove the gender tag (and any other special formatting tags--there are lots of others) is to use either the zo_strformat function or the LocalizeString function (zo_strformat is a wrapper for LocalizeString; you can use the latter directly).

For example:

Code:

-- In en.lua:
ZO_CreateStringId("SI_JOGROUP_JOINED", "<<1>> has joined the group.")

-- In JoGroup.lua:
d(LocalizeString(GetString(SI_JOGROUP_JOINED), memberName))

This has the added benefit that the localizer could change the position in which the name appears in the sentence, to better fit the grammatical structure of a particular language.

Second, instead of displaying "CP555", you can display the champion icon instead. It would look something like this:

To do this, simply replace the "CP" with
zo_iconFormat("/esoui/art/menubar/gamepad/gp_playermenu_icon_champion.dds", 18, 18)

For example:

Code:

level = GetUnitChampionPoints(unitTag) > 0 and zo_iconFormat("/esoui/art/menubar/gamepad/gp_playermenu_icon_champion.dds", 18, 18) .. GetUnitChampionPoints(unitTag) or GetUnitLevel(unitTag),

Ow that really explains some things for me, thanks so much!

I think I got it now... Addon is being updated here now *fingers crossed*

Hah! I... erm... may have forgotten to finished the shield function, it'll be done in the next update XD Thanks!

As for separating, I'm not entirely sure yet if I want that for this addon, or have it one way only, by design... I might wait for more feedback before deciding anything.

I'm pretty certain that this is not possible. If I'm wrong, please anyone point me in the right direction and I'll check it out, but I've seen no functions giving any such information made available by ZOS.
