MM Kill Order
Defines kill order, banish, polymorph, shackle, trap, mc, pat etc for all party/raid members who also have the mod
Allows only the party/raid leader to make changes to the target information
When the raid/party leader or assistants update the config, it will change the info for those in the party/raid also running the AddOn (on request from leaders)
If you are running in a party where no one else has the AddOn, it is also a handy way to make a note of what the Target Info/Kill Order is.
Local changes are possible, the raid/party leader can overwrite with his/her config.
/mmko for config as well as Shift-Click on the Minimap Icon
Click on target marker in window to remind the party/raid what to attack.
(Many thanks to Copperman for both his insight and suggestions)

Mmko 3.3.7
- Kill symbols are now listed first in the window, in kill order.
- Add some debug options to help see what the add-on is doing.
- Various improvements to the code (removal of unnecessary nested frames, use of standard tank symbol icons).
Mmko 3.3.6
- The automatic transmission to other MMKO users has been disabled.
- There is a Annc button in the main window which will send current information to party/raid chat and to all MMKO users.
- I'm not sure if it's been documented, but clicking on one of the individual target marks in the main assignment window will generate a raid warning "Attack the <symbol>".
- There are now also multiple profiles available so that you can create your own separate party, 10-man, 25-man, or whatever, profiles for the target assignments (courtesy of the AceDB library) - target assignments are saved in the profile (which are common across all your characters), but window positions and visibility are saved on a per-character basis.
Mmko 3.3.5
- The minimap button position should now be saved correctly.
- Added an option to not automatically send information to other MMKO in the same party/raid on every change made in the window, instead providing a send button in the main MMKO window. (Note that comms will not work between different versions.)
Mmko 3.3.4
- It looks like some things didn't quite work properly in 3.3.3, so here are the fixes.
Mmko 3.3.3
- The current state of the windows and minimap button position are now saved on logout and across instance boundaries.
Mmko 3.3.2
- tags updated to make it match the current client version (3.2)
Mmko 3.3.1
- update provided by dearthmaul... many thanks! he will be added to the maintainers on this project
- Added hex
- Minimap button is working
- Communication between raid members is improved.
Mmko 3.2
- Added seduce for locks
- Added a pull button
- May not be compatible
- here's the way to get around it if you do not want to upgrade
- In the next major release I will be changing the db so we don't have to do this...
- In the localization.enus.lua file, anywhere after the line
- you can add the following line
MmkoLOC["seduce"] = "Seduce"
- also in the Mmko.lua, following the line
j["ind"] = MmkoLOC["ind"]
j["seduce"] = MmkoLOC["seduce"]
easier to upgrade in my opinion

Installation Guide
- Exit "World of Warcraft" completely
- Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
- Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
- Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
- WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
- WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Mac Users
- StuffitExpander: Double click the archive to extract it to a folder in the current directory.
- Verify your WoW Installation Path
That is where you are running WoW from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
- Move to the Addon folder
- Open your World of Warcraft folder. (default is C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
- Start World of Warcraft
- Make sure AddOns are installed
- Log in
- At the Character Select screen, look in lower left corner for the "addons" button.
- If button is there: make sure all the mods you installed are listed and make sure "load out of date addons" is checked.
- If the button is NOT there: means you did not install the addons properly. Look at the above screenshots. Try repeating the steps or getting someone who knows more about computers than you do to help.
Translations
When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of wow. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".
TOC Numbers (Out of Date Mods)
When Blizzard patches WoW, they change the Interface number. This means that all mods will be "out of date" unless or until the author releases a new version for that interface. Some people go into the .toc files and update the numbers themselves, but this is STRONGLY advised against as it will cause problems locating possible incompatibilities addons. When you log into WoW after a patch, you DO NOT have to delete your interface directory. All you have to do is simply tell WoW to ignore the interface numbers and load all the mods anyway. All you have to do is, while at the "character select" screen, look in the lower left corner and click on the "addons" button. A window will pop up listing all your installed mods.
If you look in the upper left corner of that window there should be a box that says "Load Out of Date AddOns". You want to CHECK this box. Now simply go into WoW normally and all your mods should load. As of the 1.9 patch, you will have to do this after EVERY patch/update that Blizzard posts! If you encounter any problems with a mod after a patch, please be sure to let the author of the mod know so they can fix it.

Mac Support
WoW addons are not platformed based. As such, they can be used on either Mac or PC. You can extract both .zip and .rar files on a Mac using StuffitExpander.
