World Events Tracker  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 3.2.0
by: bulton-fr [More]

Status tracking for World Events (except Oblivion portal and Nymic Bastion).

Originally called DragonTracker, and originally inspired by the addon World Event Alert (aka Dragon Alert) created by Enodoc.

Dependency :
Features :
  • Display the current status of world events if you are in a zone with it (except oblivion portal and Nymic Bastion).
  • (Elsweyr only) Display the dragon's color
  • (Elsweyr only) Display a timer to know since how long a dragon has a status.
  • (Elsweyr only) Know when the dragon will repop, and display it instead of "killed since"
  • You can switch between location name and cardinal point (see FAQ)

TODO List :
  • #15 Add a command to force to reload the list

FAQ :

Why the timer is not displayed ?
If you just arrived in the zone, the timer will not be displayed. You need to assist to a change of status to have the timer.

Why Oblivion Portal and Nymic Bastion are not working ?
These two types of events are not sending any information to addons when something happens so I can't manage these types of events because I don't receive any information for them.

Why the addon display "killed since..." instead of "repop in..." ?
You need to assist to a kill - repop of one dragon to know the current dragon's repop time.
Also, repop timer only work for Elsweyr's Dragons, not for others world events (yet ?)

How to display location name ?
You can configure it from the settings panel dedicated to the addon.
Also, the previous method with a command still works :
"/worldeventstracker label name" will display location name
"/worldeventstracker label point" will display cardinal point
Also you can use the command "/wet" instead of "/worldeventstracker" if no other addon define it.

Why location name is not displayed at Southern Elsweyr ?
Because dragons daily quests not use a location name but cardinal point, and all landing zone for a same dragon not have the same location name at Southern Elsweyr.

Hi,
The addon is not abandoned, I just not do an update at each game's update if there is not something which break the addon.

About your request, it seems to me that there is no event in the API to know that, so the only way I see for the moment is to check if you loot or no, so it's not the best because you can choose to not loot it (for any reason). Or maybe check if we are in combat and do a damage to the boss, but it's will work easy for Dragon, but not sure about others world event (many mob, and not sure they're defined in the world event API).
Maybe there is other way, but for the moment I not see it. If someone have an idea I'm interested.

Sorry for the delay, seem I was answer on others addon's comment but forget here.
I will see if I can do something.

Just to keep updated.

I started to work on the settings to choose what to track (dolmen, geyser, dragon, or harrowstorm) few days ago. It's on the good way, just need some more testing before publish it.
So with that, you will no more need to show/hide manually the tracker.

Hi,
You can use the keybind to show/hide the UI, or commands "/wet hide" and "/wet show"
But yes, it's a great idea, I will add that, to choose to show/hide for a specific world event
Thank you! I was positive I had looked for a keybind setting but obviously I didn't look hard enough! I really love that it tracks other events now, I just don't necessarily want them on my screen full time

Thank you for the info. Yesterday, I noticed it too but in a delve in Elsweyr and I went to do something else after, so I thought it was an old bug that was coming back but limited to delves, so not too urgent.
But after seeing your comment this morning, I checked it as soon as I could and made a fix because this bug has an impact timers.
I will post the fix this afternoon.

It's now fixed. You just need to update LibDragonWorldEvent when the v1.1.2 will be approved.

Currently when we view the main map, the timer disappears.
I'm so sorry for the delay, I completely forgot about your request. I have already started working on it, it should be in the next release
