Description
🎯 Hunter DeadZone Forever
Never lose track of your Hunter dead zone again! 🏹 Hunter DeadZone Forever shows at a glance whether you are in Melee, in the Dead Zone, in Shoot range or Out of Range, and how far away your target is. 📏
⚔️ What it does
A slim bar with two sides:
| Left | Right |
|---|---|
| ⚔️ Melee, Dead Zone, Shoot or Out of Range | 📏 Distance to your target in yards, or "No Target" |
📐 Zone Ranges
| Zone | Distance |
|---|---|
| ⚔️ Melee | Up to 5 yards |
| ⚠️ Dead Zone | 5 to 8 yards |
| 🏹 Shoot | From 8 yards up to your ranged limit (normally 35 yards, detected automatically from Auto Shot) |
| 🚫 Out of Range | Beyond your ranged limit |
✨ Features
- 🎨 Two bar styles: Classic (default) and Modern
- 📏 Distance display: Range (e.g. 10–15 yd), maximum or middle value
- 🔊 Sound per zone: Off by default. Pick any sound from the LibSharedMedia database, just like in WeakAuras, or add your own .ogg / .mp3 files. Blizzard game sounds are hidden by default to keep the list short.
- 💬 On-screen message per zone: Off by default, with your own text, colour, size and duration
- ⚙️ Alert options: Minimum time between alerts, only in combat, and sound channel. No alert when you simply switch targets.
- 🗺️ Minimap button: Show / hide
- 📊 Broker plugin: Titan Panel, ChocolateBar, Bazooka and others, with three display modes: function (zone + distance), addon name or short name (HDZF)
- 🛠️ Full customisation: Scale, width, height, background opacity, font (LibSharedMedia fonts), font size, outline and colours for every zone
- 🖱️ Movable and lockable: Drag the bar and the message wherever you like
- 🪟 Modern options panel: Available under Options → AddOns
