BG Defender
Last Updated: Sep 20, 2018 Game Version: 8.0.1
BG Defender (Based on AB Defender) gives you a little movable window with buttons to announce the number of incoming enemies at the base you're defending in most battlegrounds. There are also buttons to call for help or announce the base you're defending is safe. BG Defender will automatically pop up when entering a battleground and close after you leave.
/bgd - to show/hide window
/bgd help - to show all commands
AB Defender was created by Riel Kil'Jaeden GER EU, based on FaraFrames by Farang.

This worked perfectly. I simply added this to the LUA :
In the BGDefender.lua file, I added your idea after line 315
Add those to the file and save, worked like a charm. Thanks for pointing this out!

Posted Mar 19, 2019BG Defender is no longer working! I'm either told I'm not in a bg or I'm not the leader???? Please fix this ASAP.

Posted Dec 16, 2018There is a new kind of BG called a Brawl; one of them is in Arathi (only it's winter, and misty), but even though it's the same map, BGD doesn't recognize it as a BG. I'd be grateful if you could add it. :-)

Posted Sep 10, 2018I've just uploaded a new version that should fix the problem with GetPlayerMapPosition.
I haven't done much testing of it, so if some new errors shows up, let me know.

Posted Sep 9, 2018BGdefender is using an outdated function called GetPlayerMapPosition(). Unfortunately, the new function C_Map.GetPlayerMapPosition() does not provide coordinates within battlegrounds.
You need to bypass this funktion in the fille BGdefender.lua line 155 like this:
>local function BGD_GetPlayerPosition()
>return nil
>end
Maybe this fix causes problem in some battlegrounds using coordinates. Please report if you have any issues.

Posted Apr 10, 2017The Brawl: Arathi Blizzard not working too.
I think the only way to solve this, is to have a dropdown or button for each place.
