FishFry - Fishing Forever

1.3.2

Full Sessions Overhaul and Visibility Pass

• Reworked Fishing Sessions into a clearer and more complete activity-tracking system.
• Session lifecycle state is now presented separately from selection state.
• Sessions now clearly distinguish:
  • ready;
  • running;
  • actively Fishing;
  • stopped.
• Session actions now reflect the current lifecycle with explicit:
  • Start;
  • Resume;
  • Switch;
  • Stop.
• The currently running Session remains visible even while browsing a different selected Session.
• Improved selected-Session summaries with additional tracked context including:
  • casts;
  • caught casts;
  • fish/item totals;
  • cumulative active Fishing time;
  • recording runs;
  • Fishing and Cooking rank context;
  • first-start and latest-activity information;
  • unique observed loot context.
• Kept Session statistics grounded in FishFry's existing Fishing-correlated records rather than introducing speculative drop-rate or abundance calculations.

Multi-zone Session tracking

• Added persistent multi-location history for Fishing Sessions.
• Sessions can now retain the ordered zone/subzone contexts observed while Fishing instead of only remembering the creation and latest locations.
• Added per-location cast tracking for newly observed Session locations.
• Session summaries now expose how many locations and zones were observed.
• Session hover details can show the full recorded location history.
• Older Sessions are migrated non-destructively using only the location information FishFry actually preserved.
• Historical intermediate zones are not invented for older Sessions where FishFry did not originally record them.

Fishing Record

• Added a durable Fishing Record surface to Journal.
• Fishing Record is intentionally separate from disposable Fishing Sessions.
• Added Account and Character record scopes.
• Added searchable recorded-item history with maintained context such as:
  • caught/opened quantities;
  • first observation;
  • latest observation;
  • latest known location;
  • item reference information.
• Fishing Record item references use the established FishFry item interaction:
  • hover for the item tooltip;
  • click to open the item in Easy Wiki.
• Deleting a Fishing Session does not remove durable Fishing Record history.
• Improved Fishing Record card geometry and spacing to prevent overlapping metadata at larger FishFry window scales.

Fishing Session HUD control

• Added an optional Fishing Session button to the FishFry HUD.
• The Fishing Session button now occupies the default HUD utility position previously used by Guide.
• Guide is hidden by default but remains available through:
  • Options;
  • the FishFry center-button menu.
• Existing profiles receive a one-time default transition so:
  • Fishing Session is shown;
  • Guide is hidden.
• User choices remain persistent after that transition and both buttons can still be independently enabled or disabled.
• The Fishing Session HUD button uses clear state borders:
  • red when no Session is running;
  • green when a Session is running.
• Left-click performs the appropriate Session action:
  • Start;
  • Resume;
  • Switch;
  • Stop.
• Session Start/Stop actions now use FishFry's normal non-loot HUD floaters.
• Start feedback reports:
  • Started Session - <Session Name>
• Stop feedback reports:
  • Stopped Session - <Session Name> - <total active Fishing time>
• Right-click opens a compact Session flyout.
• The flyout supports:
  • using the currently selected Session;
  • creating and selecting a new stopped Session;
  • opening the main FishFry window directly to Fishing Sessions.
• Selecting or creating a Session from the flyout does not automatically begin recording.
• On the Circle HUD, the Fishing Session flyout now opens upward.

Circle HUD layout

• Improved Circle HUD spacing when more than eight outer HUD buttons are visible.
• The normal eight-button Circle keeps its established geometry unchanged.
• When a ninth or additional button is enabled, the Circle radius expands only enough to preserve useful spacing between button faces.
• This prevents crowded or overlapping HUD buttons when Guide and Fishing Session are both shown.
• HUD scale changes continue to preserve the established Circle layout behavior at:
  • 100%;
  • 130%;
  • 150%.

Session and Record navigation

• Added stronger navigation between FishFry's Session, Record, location, and knowledge surfaces.
• Fishing Sessions can now navigate directly to:
  • Fishing Record;
  • relevant Zone Info where maintained location data exists.
• Fishing Record can navigate back to Fishing Sessions.
• Maintained latest-location records can open the corresponding Zone Info context.
• Item references continue to open Easy Wiki where appropriate.
• Unknown or unmapped data continues to fail honestly rather than inventing relationships.

Fishing Snapshot

• Updated Fishing Snapshot to better reflect the explicit Fishing Session lifecycle.
• Snapshot now distinguishes:
  • Fishing;
  • running;
  • stopped;
  • ready Session states.
• A running Session takes priority over a merely selected stopped Session.
• Removed stale wording that implied simply Fishing would automatically create or start a Session.
• Snapshot remains a lightweight live-context surface and does not perform full Session or Journal rebuilds while hovered.

Session presentation cleanup

• Reworked Session cards to make better use of available space.
• Session/location names now receive substantially more usable width.
• Long Session names can use multiple controlled lines instead of being forced into extremely narrow truncated columns.
• Session state and tracked statistics are distributed more cleanly through the card.
• Improved presentation of:
  • casts;
  • fish;
  • items;
  • lifecycle state.
• Shortened the four selected-Session summary metric cards.
• Removed extra helper text from the bottom of those metric cards.
• Added hover tooltips with deeper tracked information for the summary metrics.
• Moved Fishing Record and Zone Info actions to the top-right of the full selected-Session card alongside the selected/running state header.
• Session Summary is now purely informational rather than also acting as the navigation-action container.

Tooltip consistency and readability

• Performed an addon-wide FishFry tooltip placement and readability pass.
• Player-visible FishFry-owned tooltips now spawn at the mouse cursor and follow the cursor while hovered.
• Removed mixed tooltip behavior that could anchor tooltips to:
  • addon-frame edges;
  • control edges;
  • the upper-right corner of FishFry;
  • other detached locations.
• Corrected cursor-position calculations for scaled FishFry tooltips.
• Standardized modern FishFry tooltip typography against the established Guide-coordinate and Options tooltip treatment.
• Tooltip text now follows the same menu-scale behavior used by FishFry's main window:
  • Compact / 100%;
  • Comfortable / 120%;
  • Maximized.
• Preserved existing tooltip semantic colors and FishFry visual styling.
• Applied the tooltip pass across FishFry-owned surfaces including:
  • Guide;
  • Zone Info;
  • Tackle;
  • Cook Fish;
  • Fishing Sessions;
  • Easy Wiki;
  • Journal;
  • Fishing Record;
  • About;
  • Options;
  • minimize/maximize controls;
  • waypoint and coordinate controls;
  • Associated Milestones;
  • item references;
  • HUD controls and flyouts;
  • Fishing Snapshot.

Associated Milestones

• Improved Associated Milestones tooltip behavior on Guide and Zone Info.
• Associated Milestone tooltips now follow the mouse instead of appearing detached from the hovered card or addon surface.
• Added Associated Milestones to Cook Fish.
• Cook Fish milestone context uses FishFry's existing maintained Journal milestone system rather than creating a separate Cooking milestone implementation.
• Cook Fish can now surface relevant tracked Cooking progress for the currently selected recipe where maintained data exists.

Fishing Water Pool

• Removed continuous alpha pulsing from the authored Circle-HUD Fishing Water Pool.
• Water Pool layers now retain steady authored opacity while their currents continue moving independently.
• Increased runtime Water Pool visibility to better account for the transparency already authored into the source textures.
• Preserved the existing:
  • Water Pool assets;
  • semantic Water tint;
  • blend modes;
  • layer sizes;
  • rotation speeds;
  • motion architecture;
  • Circle-HUD positioning.
• The Fishing Water Pool remains decorative and continues to sit behind authoritative HUD controls and the cast countdown.

HUD animation controls

• Added a separate HUD Button Animations option under Options -> HUD.
• Split authored HUD effects into two independently controlled groups.
• HUD animations now controls the larger authored HUD presentation:
  • Fishing Water Pool;
  • Cooking hearth;
  • Cooking hearth embers.
• HUD Button Animations controls button-local effects:
  • Fishing bubbles;
  • Cooking smoke.
• Existing profiles inherit the new HUD Button Animations setting from their previous HUD-animation choice once during upgrade.
• After migration, both animation settings remain independent user preferences.
