Target target targeting my target

[vor_lord]

Sounds like a cool mod.

Just one question: As I understand the functionality, you select a friendly target, then the macro tab-cycles through all the enemie's in the friendly target's area, using assist on each one to check if they are targeting the friendly.

Are there any deadzones in the tab-targetting coverage? Would the macro pick up a mob attacking the friendly from behind for instance?

It is subject to all limitations of tab targeting. This means it will pick up something behind you, but at a reduced range compared to in front. This suggests a change in tactics (at least from how I tank). Typically I tank in front of the healers/dps chars, with my back to them. I spin the camera to get a wider side view while fighting.

Now, it will be advantageous to actually turn the character around and face toward the healer. Not only does this extend the range of the mod, but it will save time when/if I need to run toward the healer to protect them.

If there are dead zones (there were prior to the last major patch) it will suffer from them. Since that patch tab has worked a lot better, although I am so much in the habit of not using it that I'm not really sure how much better.

Names - ThreatCheck? ThreatWatch? Serve and Protect? Guard and Defend? Under Attack?

Thanks for the name suggestions! Once I fix the major problem Ravage found I'll get it named, and I'll probably just put it up on ui.worldofwar.net (yes, I know they don't like the LL but they allow me to upload w/o any shenanigans like curse requires).

I'm currently leaning towards AllyProtect for the name of the mod.
