unitscan extension for Turtle WoW

unitscan_turtle

Unitscan modified for Turtle WoW.

Description

This fork extends unitscan-vanilla by automatically managing active scan targets (zone targets) when you enter a zone.

The zone targets includes all rare mobs in vanilla as a baseline.

This addon has a focus on leveling and hardcore which is reflected in the choice of zone targets.

You can add custom targets to find players or targets not included in the zone targets list by using the command /unitscan name.

Unitscan will only look for zone targets specific to your current zone. The target list is reloaded when you change zones.

Zone targets will be reloaded 90 seconds after you have found a target (to re-detect roaming targets).

Unitscan will alert you of NPC targets that you can attack and are alive.

You will always be alerted for player targets regardless.

Targets added by the /unitscan command will be removed from active scan targets after they are found.

Unitscan will pause scanning when in combat or when auto attack, auto shoot and wanding are active.

You can move the unitscan frame by holding ctrl and dragging.

Please note unitscan-turtle will not auto target the target when it is found.
Click the target in the unitscan window or use the macro /unitscantarget to target the mob.

Addon Compatibility

Unitscan uses the TargetByName function to scan through the list of targets to find an exact match. This causes the game to switch targets if the named target is nearby. Unitscan will immediately restore your original target however if you are using addons that do something when you switch targets (such as issue an alert if targets are PvP flagged) then they may trigger for the found target.

Commands

/unitscan lists the active scan targets
/unitscan name adds/removes name to/from the active scan targets
/unitscantarget targets the most recently found target
