AntiRangeFade - arf
Purpose of this AddOn
The purpose of this AddOn is to prevent Blizzard Compact Unit Frames (Raid & Party Frames) from fading out when units are out of range in a raid instance.
The AddOn hooks into Blizzard’s frame update logic and forces full visibility without modifying or overriding the original Blizzard functions.
It is designed as a lightweight utility with minimal footprint and no external dependencies.
The behavior is intentionally limited to supported environments (raid instance) since that is what we like.
