  • About HotCandy
  •  

HotCandy is a Heal-over-Time tracker initialy designed for Druids, but has grown into a full HoT/Buff tracker for all healing classes.

HotCandy was designed to be very simple and easy to use, with only a handful of options to customize the style of the bars. However its core is powerful and supports all known set bonuses, talents and glyphs that increase the length of your HoTs.

HotCandy is driven solely by the CombatLog events which provide it with all information it needs to display accurate timers for the HoTs you cast on other players (or yourself, of course).

Supported Spells

  • Druids
    • Lifebloom (with stack display)
    • Rejuvenation
    • Regrowth
    • Wild Growth (disabled by default)
    • Abolish Poison (disabled by default)
  • Priests
    • Renew
    • Power Word: Shield
    • Prayer of Mending (with remaining charges display)
    • Abolish Disease (disabled by default)
  • Shamans
    • Riptide
    • Healing Way (with stack display)

All supported spells can be enabled/disabled in the HotCandy configurarion, as you see fit.

You can access the HotCandy configuration through the Blizzard Interface AddOns Options, or with the /hotcandy slash command.

    Is there anything I can take out of the .lua to only make it track spells I cast on myself?

    This isn't working with the new cross-realm instances. My hots aren't showing timers for people on other realms?

  • Support for paladin stuffs:

    HotCandy.lua:line 86:

    HUNTER = {
    mendpet = {
    id = 136,
    duration = 15,
    },
    },
    PALADIN = {
    handofprotection = { id = 10278, duration = 10, },
    handofsacrifice = { id = 6940, duration = 12, },
    handofsalvation = { id = 1038, duration = 10, },
    handoffreedom = { id = 1044, duration = 6, },
    beaconoflight = { id = 53563, duration = 60, },
    sacredshield = { id = 53601, duration = 30, },
    holyshield = { id = 48952, duration = 10, },
    },

    HotCandy.lua:line 132
    -- hunter spells
    mendpet = true,
    -- paladin spells
    beaconoflight = true,
    sacredshield = true,
    handofprotection = true,
    handofsacrifice = true,
    handofsalvation = true,
    handoffreedom = true,
    holyshield = false,
    },

    Can't really do Divine Plea; well, i could, but the glyph makes the timer keep resetting - and HotCandy has no idea how a spell timer could reset.

    But you could just follow everything else i added to add Divine Plea. i also decided that a pally tank doesn't need to, by default, see Holy Shield, since that should be up all the time, and part of the 9-6-9-6-9 rotation.

  • First time in a long time that Hot Candy has bugged for me. I reinstalled it and still have the same problem. All the spells it tracks count down to 0.1 seconds and remain flashing, sometimes creating a HUGE mess on my screen. Here's a screen shot of a smaller section of spells cast that counted down but that wouldn't clear from the mod

    this is still working after loading out of date.

    any chance for a 3.2 refresh just to ensure that it doesn't cause any issues?

    Every time I log back on, the position of the timers is reset =(. It's not very convenient to continually have to put it back in the perfect position, and I sometimes forget to before I go to heal a raid.

    against position bug
    hotcandy.lua, Line: 218

    function HotCandy:LoadPosition()
    -- Convert old Position (its not 100% accurate due to new anchor handling - but its a start)
    if db.posx then
    db.position = { x = db.posX, y = db.posY, point = "TOPLEFT", relPoint = "BOTTOMLEFT" }
    db.posX = nil
    db.posY = nil
    end
    if not db.position then return end
    local pos = db.position
    local x, y, s = pos.X, pos.Y, self.group:GetEffectiveScale()
    local point, relPoint = pos.point, pos.relPoint

    self.group:ClearAllPoints()
    self.group:SetPoint(point, UIParent, relPoint, x, y)
    end

    function HotCandy:SavePosition()
    if not db.position then db.position = {} end
    local pos = db.position
    local point, parent, relPoint, x, y = self.group:GetPoint()
    local s = self.group:GetEffectiveScale()

    pos.X, pos.Y = x, y
    pos.point, pos.relPoint = point, relPoint
    end

    about riptide
    hotcandy.lua, Line: 46X, -- Glyph Bonus
    (add this)

    elseif class == "SHAMAN" then
    -- Glyph of Riptide
    if hasGlyph(63273) then
    track.riptide.duration = track.riptide.duration + 6
    end

    Is there possibly a way to add Cyclone to this? Or is it not capable of tracking outside of allies?

    Just curious because I'd rather not use another mod to give me a cyclone timer :(

    Love the addon, only issue is that it doesn't seem to work for Hunter's mend pet. Would be very practical.
