Description

A lightweight World of Warcraft addon that provides simple, streamlined control over floating combat text settings. Reduce visual noise and keep your screen clear during high-intensity encounters.

KNOWN ISSUES

  • Incorrect version number used in a comment in the `CombatTextLite.lua` file. This does not impact functionality and will be changed in the next version.

RECENT CHANGES

• No major refactor in latest version. Add-on was tested in 12.0.1 and works as intended.

FIXED ISSUES

• Add-on was erroring out because of how the settings where being implemented (was causing a taint issue that would make annoying error boxes pop up). This is now fixed and you can keep the add-on enabled at all times!

FEATURES

• Master Toggle - Enable or disable all combat text options with a single click or command
• Individual Control - Fine-tune which types of combat text you want to see
• Clean Interface - Integrated settings panel in the Blizzard Options menu
• Quick Commands - Easy-to-use slash commands for on-the-fly adjustments
• One-Click Reload - Built-in UI reload button to apply changes instantly

USAGE

Slash Commands (use /ctl):
• /ctl toggle - Toggle all floating combat text on or off
• /ctl config or /ctl settings - Open the settings panel
• /ctl help - Display available commands

Settings Panel:
Access via /ctl config or ESC → Options → AddOns → CombatTextLite

The settings panel includes:
• Toggle All Combat Text - Master switch for all combat text
• Individual Settings:
  - Combat Damage - Show damage you deal
  - Combat Healing - Show healing you receive
  - Pet Melee Damage - Show pet melee damage
  - Pet Spell Damage - Show pet spell damage
  - Periodic Spells - Show DoT/HoT damage and healing
• Reload UI Button - One-click UI reload to apply changes

IMPORTANT NOTE

After changing settings, you must reload your UI (/reload) for changes to take effect. This is a Blizzard CVar limitation. CombatTextLite will remind you when changes are made.
