Dirty Boot Combat HUD

Dirty Boot Combat HUD is a read-only combat awareness HUD for World of Warcraft Retail.

It separates player, target, and party information into movable, independently scalable HUD sections. The addon is built for information passing only: it does not cast, target, assist, run macros, use secure buttons, or automate combat decisions.

Requirements

World of Warcraft Retail.
DirtyBootCore installed and enabled.

DirtyBootCore is a required dependency and must be installed as a separate addon folder:

Interface/AddOns/DirtyBootCore
Interface/AddOns/DirtyBootCombatHUD

Features

Compact player health and power cluster.
Class/spec label using class color.
Center class-resource symbols using one shared symbol style across classes.
Center resource area stays empty when the current class/spec has no active dedicated resource.
Target frame with health, power, target type, level, classification, creature type, target-of-target, cast/threat info, and player/NPC identification.
Target health color coding:
- Friendly: green.
- Neutral/unknown: yellow.
- Enemy: red.
- Enemy pet: light purple.
Target power bar color follows the target's power type.
Party unit bars for party1 through party4.
Player, target, and party sections can be moved separately.
Player, target, and party sections can be scaled separately from /dbch.

Safety Boundaries

Dirty Boot Combat HUD is intentionally read-only.

It does not:

Cast spells.
Target units.
Assist units.
Run macros.
Click protected buttons.
Replace Blizzard secure frames.
Use combat log parsing.
Perform combat automation.

Known Notes

Some health and power values can be protected by Blizzard in modern Retail. The addon uses guarded reads and safe fallbacks where possible.
Class-resource support is intentionally conservative. If a resource is not active for the current class/spec, the center resource area is left empty.
This release should be treated as an early public build.
