FarmerRoutes — Graph-Based Routes/Paths for WoW TBC

FarmerRoutes is a reimagined routing system for World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade. Unlike traditional routing addons that use linear arrays of waypoints, FarmerRoutes uses a graph-based data model. This allows for natural branching, intersections, and loops, making it the perfect tool for complex farming routes (Gas Clouds, Herbs, and Ore) in Outland.

Key Features

Graph-Based Architecture: Build complex, non-linear routes with interconnected nodes and edges.
World Map Editor: Edit your routes directly on the World Map with intuitive mouse controls.
Smart Navigation HUD: A draggable directional arrow and distance readout with predictive "look-ahead" logic to guide you seamlessly through your route.
Minimap Overlay: Zoom-aware, lines that provide a visual path without cluttering your minimap.
Advanced Styling & Inheritance: Granular control over node and edge visuals with a 3-tier inheritance model (Global → Route → Item).
Sync & Sharing: Import/Export routes via strings. Fully compatible with legacy RoutePlanner strings.
Multi-Character Support: Manage routes across all your characters with bulk import capabilities.
Smart Bulk Updates: Changing route-level styles automatically propagates to all nodes and edges matching the previous defaults.
Fluid Map Interaction: Integrated map panning and high-priority click detection ensure seamless editing even over dense resource icons.

How to Use

Map Editor Controls

Enter Edit Mode by clicking the wrench icon on the World Map toolbar.

Ctrl + Left-Click (Empty Space): Add a new node and connect it to the selected node.
Left-Click (Node): Select a node or drag to reposition it.
Ctrl + Left-Click (Existing Node): Create or remove an edge between the selected node and the clicked node.
Shift + Left-Click (Edge): Split an edge by inserting a new node in the middle.
Right-Click (Node/Edge): Delete the targeted element.
Right-Click (Empty Space): Clear selection or zoom out map.

Navigation HUD

Toggle the HUD to get directional guidance to your next farm node.

Shift + Left-Click (Minimap Button): Quickly toggle the HUD on/off.
Draggable Interface: Click and drag the HUD to reposition it anywhere on your screen.
Smart Logic & Look-Ahead: The HUD automatically detects your direction of travel and targets the most logical next node. When within 20 yards of a target, it automatically "looks ahead" to the next node in the sequence for seamless navigation.
