[ADDON] nkThings - A unit frame addon

[Zaphrina]

Couple bugs found.
If you try to disable charge bar it bugs out even after /reloadui. http://i.imgur.com/lz8w5.jpg?1

Header bar will only use black or default as background color rest do not work. If you use default header color with buffs/debuffs at top the icons will cover any text on header bar. http://i.imgur.com/CnT0o.jpg?1

Does this error only occur with KA activated? Actually the error message itself rather hints towards a problem in nkThings. I'll look into this tonight.

Yep with Karuul disabled it still happens so errors all yours. ;P Spams this error every time I cast anything it seems. Lots of spam. I even tried disabling all addons except NKThings and still same error.

Version 1.1.8 changelog

new: if buff and debuff position is the same debuffs will automatically placed below (or above depending on setting) buff frame

update: buff and debuff position now take header labels and planar / role icon position into account

bug fix: fixed an issue with mages on target's target unit frame

nkGenie V1.3.22
new: nkExtText now supports GetVisible()

Any chance we can get an option to move the cast bar to different positions on the frame.

Also I'd like to have it mimic the normal cast bar in how it fills. i.e. Left to right for casts, right to left for channeled abilities.

[Zaphrina]

Error's gone ty.

Is there a way to show old health, health max numbers not the 7.0k but full amounts?

Also could you make the yellow cast bar a bit darker in color? The white text is very hard to read.

Is there anything in the works to keep player (your player) cast buffs/debuffs at the top of the buff/debuff list? Sometimes I need to see all of the buffs/debuffs, but during a fight I can easily get lost in them if I run Warden, or some other spec that requires managing lots of dots/hots. Also with that, I think of the possibility of showing the stacks of a certain buff/debuff. Am I missing that, or has it just been overlooked as a necessary feature?

Priority probably can be done. I am however very carefull cause moving around the textures also means more performance hit to Rift. So I try to keep the updating to as few as possible. But yeah I think some priority system should be possible.

If the stack counter is not showing there's a bug in the code. It should show stack counters.

Love the addon - thanks for all the hard work.

(option to only show k when over 100k perhaps?)

[Naifu]

That option will be put into the addon in the next release. However the next release will take some time cause currently I'm very much occuppied getting nkAdvisor to work with Russian language. Had to redo the whole XML import process.

Whatever the Russians are offering you we can double it.

Just had the following error while using nkThings.

21:32:31: [nkThings] ---------
21:32:31: [nkThings] Error: Incorrect security mode.
21:32:31: [nkThings] Function documentation:

This is produced by having the config open with the frames unlocked, then entering combat and attempting to lock the frames.

I believe this is an expected result, but might be somewhere to add a custom error message.

I think it was a minor bug, because after I wrote that I went back to re-test and it worked fine. As for priority, I just set it to only show my buffs. Now that I think about it, it would probably be better to just go this route, since performance is a big issue, especially with the API in Beta. :P

Thanks Naifu!
