CountDoom v0.48
author: Justin Milligan
updated by: Scrum (Kilrogg server - Horde)
CountDoom is an Add-On for warlocks. Originally, it only displayed a counter on the screen whenever a demon is enslaved. The goal was to give the warlock a warning as enslave approaches its maximum duration.
CountDoom can play sounds at specific times to grab your attention. Currently, a sound may be played when a spell is getting close to wear off and when it finally wears off.
In order for CountDoom to play user defined sounds, you must place the .wav files in the
Interface/AddOns/CountDoom/ folder. NOTE: In the original version, the .WAV files were located in /world of warcraft/Data folder. The older folder is no longer used by this AddOn. This zip contains 2 sample sound files, but feel free to use your own.
To tell CountDoom which sound files to play, you use the /countdoom or /cd commands:
To enable or disable CountDoom
/countdoom <enable|disable>
To toggle whether or not a sound is played at warning and end marks
/countdoom play
To toggle whether or not a message is displayed in the text window. It cycles through 'never', 'local', 'party', 'raid' and 'all'. Added in v48, ability to announce to a 'channel'.
/countdoom announce
To toggle whether or not a timer will flash when warning time exceeded.
/countdoom flash
To display spell information
/countdoom <spellabbreviation>
To toggle a spell timer (useful for disabling DoTs if tracked by another addon):
/countdoom <spellabbreviation> toggle
To move the timers around, you need to unlock the timer display. This can only be accomplished via
/countdoom <unlock|lock>
To test out a timer without without expending mana or wasting a shard
/countdoom <spell abbreviation> <start|end>
To cycle through various layouts. Cycles through horizontal, vertical and textonly layouts
/countdoom layout
To cycle through 3 different sizes (horizontal and vertical layouts only)
/countdoom scale
##NEW IN 48##
To add a delay before removing timers after leaving combat.
/countdoom ooc <seconds>
To add a delay before removing timers after expiration.
/countdoom expire <seconds>
To toggle enabling/disabling of fractional seconds display in timers.

- added support for casting via macros using CastSpellByName.
- added 'Resist' support for spells. See known issues below.
v0.42 updates:
- Fixed problem with interrupting a spell still showing timers.

- added ability to toggle text flashing. '/cd flash' toggles flashing.

v0.41 updates:

v0.3 updates:
- Fixed compatibility issues with latest client patch.
- Added a few debug commands to assist in testing w/o wasting a shard.
- Improved layout and text of counter.
- Added support for moving the counter to a new location.
- Moved .WAV file location to the AddOns/CountDoom folder.
Known issues:
- Banish that occurs immediately after a preceding banish (aka chain banishing) is sometimes discarded from the timers list because the banish detection logic checks debuffs on the target which could be late relative to the banish action wearing off.
- The method to remove timers for 'Resist' and 'Immune' key off chat combat messages. If you are too far from the target, the message won't be seen and the timer won't be removed.
- Some spells are not being timed in all languages. Banish, Enslave Demon, Curse of Elements and Curse of Agony have been reported not working on the French version.
Todo:
- Add 'Evade' support. 'Your <spell> was evaded by <mob>.'
Credits:
Thanks to Justin for this valuable addon. Also, thanks go out to the authors of the CT_timer mod. I lifted the mouse dragging logic from that addon into this one. Also, thanks to all the other addon makers out there. Without yours, I surely wouldn't have updated this one.
Final Note:
To my fellow warlocks out there on Kilrogg server, give me a hollar if you find my updates useful. I have a few ideas on extensions to this but I'll wait to see if there is interest in this base addon.
