Forever Cooldowns

What's new in this version

First public release.

New

• Track any spell or item. Blizzard's manager only shows its curated list; here everything can go on a bar of your own - via the button next to the search box, with /fcd spell <ID>, or by dropping it in from your bags, including spells the spellbook does not list. A dedicated section shows what their list leaves out.
• Ranks stacked. The same ability in thirty ranks becomes one entry showing the highest rank you know. The rank number sits on the icon.
• One interface for everything. Forever Cooldowns takes the place of Blizzard's cooldown window and, in Edit Mode, also replaces the settings dialogs of their bars. The values stay theirs: their "Save changes" saves ours along with it, and it survives a reload. Both can be switched off.
• The same entries as Blizzard's manager. The catalogue is read from their own display layer, so both windows show the same cooldowns in the same sections - including the ones you have not learned yet and the ones set to hidden.
• Ready alerts. What becomes ready lights up and stays marked for as long as it is ready - using Blizzard's own glow where the client has it. Optionally with a sound, configurable per bar and, differently, per entry.
• Edit Blizzard's categories. Multi-select, drag between sections, target buttons. Changes are written into their own layout.
• Your own bars with orientation, size, spacing, opacity, visibility and "Use on click" - configurable in a window styled after their Edit Mode, which the bars follow.
• Profiles to save, switch and share as text; optionally automatic on stance, form or specialisation.
• English and German interface, following your client's language; /fcd lang de|en|auto overrides it.

Good to know

/fcd check shows what this client offers. Every API needed is probed individually - if one is missing, only the feature built on it falls away, not the addon.

This client does not hand the addon's saved variables back on login, so Forever Cooldowns keeps a per-character second copy and restores from it. /fcd mirror tells you where your settings came from.

If the client lists no cooldowns for a character at all, the first two tabs stay empty - Blizzard's own window does too. Your own spells and items can still be tracked on the other two tabs.
