'/sem' for in-game options.

I, personally, found that a lot of the time when I had to quickly swap targets, move away from something or simply got distracted, I would lose track of which eclipse buff I should be trying to proc and with what spell. This mod addresses this issue very simply in both its design and function. It shows what spell to cast at that point in time should you wish to proc eclipse, displaying "BOTH" should both eclipses be available.

Function:
VIEW IMAGES TO THE RIGHT FOR VISUAL
- Displays a frame on your screen with text appropriate to the current situation. This text is customizable via the menu. By default:
--- Displays "BOTH" when both eclipse buffs are available
--- Displays "STARFIRE" during Lunar eclipse and afterwards until solar eclipse procs or the lunar eclipse cooldown is finished
--- Displays "WRATH" during Solar eclipse and afterwards until lunar eclipse procs or the solar eclipse cooldown is finished

Features:

- Predictive Cast (Off by default for lunar eclipse, '/sem NGP' to turn on. This is due to this prediction being only a 60% chance to be correct. Always on for solar eclipse, as this is a 100% chance.)

--The nature of how the eclipse buff is gained is the core of this feature. Simply put, you gain the Nature's Grace(NG) buff slightly before the eclipse buff is registered. This allows you to predict if eclipse will proc and start casting accordingly to gain extra damage done within the eclipse time frame.

--EXAMPLE: Both eclipse buffs are available, you are casting wrath to proc lunar eclipse. The text initially displayed is "BOTH" (by default, can be changed, see readme.txt), wrath then procs NG, the text will instantly change to "STARFIRE"(default) suggesting you cast starfire. You swap to starfire just as the eclipse buff is gained, typically giving you an extra starfire cast during your eclipse.

- Graphical interface('/sem' to access)
- Option to only show frame while in Moonkin Form
- Hides frame out of combat
- Each text able to be individually coloured
- Type '/sem' for slash commands

Future Implementation:
- Provide an option to change the text to spell icons

Thanks so much for the fast reply! That fixed it indeed.

Issa A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 4 Uploads: 0	Latest version bugs with Lunar Sphere Since I updated to the latest version this week, I am receiving an error on login. Another addon I use, Lunar Sphere, is not showing anymore because of this error. If I disable SEM there is no error and Lunar Sphere works as it is supposed to. The error I receive is: ..\AddOns\LunarSphere\LunarSphere.lua line 282: attempt to index global 'Lunar' (a function value) which is about Lunar Sphere, but as explained above, I believe it is caused by SEM unfortunately. Did you perhaps start using a variable called Lunar recently or do you have an idea what could be causing this? I really love both Lunar Sphere and SEM so I'd like to keep using them both. Thanks for checking and for making this addon!

I found just one problem.

After each combat, the text "BOTH"'s gone, Why?

so I have to type "/sem show" before every combat. It's bugging me.

I have no idea, looking into it right now. Unless your refering to the auto-hide out of combat. It's set to auto-show when combat starts and auto-hide on combat end.

Regards the box, I'll have an option to remove it once I can sort out how to change the text colour, yellow against anything but black doesn't really work. May even allow indiviual colours for each text type.
