Enemy Spotter

New in 1.1–1.2 (kill-order icons, KOS sharing, death popup, sightings log) — still being tested on WoW: Forever. Please report anything odd in the comments with /es version and /es blocked.

## 1.2.0 - 2026-10-16
- **Kill order.** When two or more enemies are in view, Enemy Spotter scores them and puts
a skull, cross and moon over the top three on their nameplates. Healer classes rank
first (order is yours to change: `/es priority warrior rogue ...`); anyone seen casting a
heal jumps to the top for a minute; enemies targeting you, under 30% health or on your
KOS list rank higher; cat- and bear-form druids lower. When the skull target dies or
leaves, the icons move up. A marked enemy keeps its icon unless someone clearly
outscores them, so icons don't flicker.
These are the addon's own icons (the game won't let addons place real raid markers),
shown to you even when solo. In a group, everyone running Enemy Spotter shows the same
order: the group leader's, or if the leader doesn't run it, the first name
alphabetically. Works in battlegrounds and arenas too (alerts stay quiet there), not in
dungeons or quiet towns. `/es icons on|off`.
- **Kill order in announcements.** Spot adds it when two or more enemies are in view:
`... - Kill: Fleshy (Priest, healing), Burny (Mage), Stabby (Rogue)`. `/es killorder on|off`.
The crowd summary's chat line shows it too.
- **Danger flag.** Enemies 5 or more levels above you (or skull level) are marked DANGER
in alerts, summaries, KOS alerts and Spot's announcement. `/es danger <n>|off`.
- **Less chat spam when several people spot the same enemy.** Spot now listens for other
players' calls (Enemy Spotter's wording or the classic "Horde Spotted:" macro) on the
channel it announces in. If someone called that player in the last 20 seconds, Spot
sends only the short "moving" line, and only if nobody has posted about them in the
last 8 seconds; otherwise it stays quiet and tells you who just called it. Targeting,
marking and your own repeat presses work as before.
- The settings panel scrolls, and has the new options.

## 1.1.0 - 2026-10-15
- **Kill-on-sight list.** `/es kos` adds your target, `/es kos <note>` adds a note,
`/es kos <name> <note>` adds by name, plus `/es kos remove <name>` and `/es kos list`.
KOS players get their own alert: a big pink banner with the note, a different sound,
no crowd summaries, no 180s cooldown (20s against nameplate flicker), and they still
alert in quiet towns. Never in instances or battlegrounds.
- **"Killed by?" popup.** When you die, a small window offers the likely killer(s) with
✓ / ✗ buttons. Uses the death recap where the client has one, otherwise enemies who had
you targeted in the last 15 seconds, then your own target. Close, Esc or ✗ dismiss it;
`/es kos killer off` turns it off.
- **No double announcements.** Spot tells other Enemy Spotter users in your group and
guild (hidden addon message). If one of them spots the same player within 20 seconds,
their addon sends the short "moving" line instead of a second full announcement.
- **Shared KOS lists** (opt-in, `/es kos share on`): guildmates running Enemy Spotter
swap KOS entries, synced at login, every 30 minutes and on every change. Shared
entries show "shared by <player>"; your own entries win; `/es kos ignore <player>`
refuses someone's entries.
- **Sightings log.** The last 100 alerts with level, race, class, place and coordinates.
`/es log` prints them; `/es log window` opens a window with a "+ KOS" button per row.
- **Settings panel** under Options > AddOns > Enemy Spotter with every option.
`/es settings` opens it. Minimap right-click now opens a menu (Settings, Sightings log,
KOS list, alerts on/off) instead of printing help.
- Fixed: the Spot and toggle key bindings weren't listed under Keybindings > AddOns.

## 1.0.2 - 2026-10-15
- Fixed: on WoW Forever, Spot triggered "blocked from an action only available to the
Blizzard UI" and no skull appeared. Forever doesn't let addons place raid markers, so
the skull is now a `/tm 8` line in the Spot button's own macro, which works everywhere.

## 1.0.1 - 2026-10-15
- When the game blocks one of the addon's actions, chat now names the blocked function
and what the addon was doing. `/es blocked` lists the last 20.

## 1.0.0 - 2026-10-15
First release.
- Alerts when an enemy player's nameplate appears, or when you target or mouse over one.
- Spot key / on-screen button: targets the nearest enemy player, casts your mark spell
(Hunter's Mark by default on hunters), puts a skull on them, and announces
name, level, race, class, subzone, zone, coordinates and the nearest flight path.
- Spotting the same player again within 20 seconds sends a short "moving" update instead.
- Ctrl+H toggles alerts (bound on first login if the key is free).
- Automatically quiet in neutral towns, sanctuaries, instances, battlegrounds and on
flight paths; `/es quiet here` adds your own quiet spots.
- Crowd mode: several enemies at once become one summary alert. Enemy-faction zones
get a summary at most every 20 seconds.
- Louder alerts in your own faction's zones.
- Per-player cooldown, optional low-level filter, choice of announce channel.
- Minimap button and addon compartment entry showing ON / OFF / QUIET.
