Klopfer's Item Tracker - TBC Anniversary Edition - Changelog

v0.6.1

Documentation

• README screenshots — embedded one screenshot per top-level feature (item_tracking_toasts.png for loot, ldb_datatext.png for session gold, gear_goals_loadout.png for GearGoals). Stale screenshots from earlier loot-history / standalone-settings UIs (loot_history.png, loot_history_roll_details.png, settings.png) removed
• README version row — corrected to match the addon version (the v0.6.0 release left the README compatibility table at 0.5.2)

v0.6.0

New Features

• Klopfer's Item Tracker rebrand — TOC title, panel headers, anchor bar, minimap tooltip, and chat output (now prefixed [KIT]) all read the new brand. Internal API tags ("ItemTracker" listener name on LootReserve, Auctionator query tag) stay for back-compat. New primary slash /kit; /it and /itemtracker are aliases
• Settings live in the WoW Interface AddOns pane — the standalone settings window has been retired. Esc → Interface → AddOns → Klopfer's Item Tracker uses the modern Settings.RegisterAddOnSetting + CreateCheckbox / CreateSlider / CreateDropdown flow (Molinari-style native widgets). The GearGoals sub-category nests beneath it; phase selector is a row of numbered buttons matching TBCA_BIS
• Unified loot log — the legacy "Loot History" pop-out is gone. The LOOT LOG tab inside the Gear Tracker is the single source-of-truth view, with an ALL / WISHLIST scope toggle (default ALL), a quality dropdown, and shared name / player search. Anchor bar, minimap, and LDB clicks all route there
• GearGoals drop popup animations — 0.3s alpha fade-in on Show plus a sine-wave alpha pulse on the corner brackets while the popup is awaiting input. Gated by a new popupAnimations setting in the GearGoals sub-pane
• Persistent bank ownership cache — ScanBagsForItemID was only walking carried bags, so items stored in the bank read as TARGET on every login. The bank is now snapshotted into ItemTrackerCharDB.bankItems whenever the bank UI is visible (BANKFRAME_OPENED + PLAYERBANKSLOTS_CHANGED + filtered BAG_UPDATE); the snapshot survives logout, /reload, and travel away from the banker, so OWNED status is durable

Improvements

• Single dark/gold visual identity — the cyan/glassy palette in the toast bar, anchor bar, and roll panel has been replaced with the same dark/gold palette as the Gear Tracker. Palette + frame helpers live in a new shared modules/Theme.lua (Theme.P, SetColor, AddBackground, AddBorder); no BackdropTemplate calls remain in the addon's code
• Slash dispatcher trimmed — every UI-redundant branch (config, options, history, phase X, gear copy, gear import bis, gear unsourced, gear atlasloot-stats, reset) has been removed in favour of UI interactions. What stays is what's actually faster as CLI: status, clear, debug, version, and the test … simulation harness
• /kit test is discoverable — bare /kit test now prints the menu of available simulators instead of silently firing a random loot toast. Subcommands renamed for clarity: lc → council, gear → bisdrop. Unknown subcommands print a friendly hint pointing back at the menu
• Click bindings rationalised — minimap left-click toggles the Gear Tracker (LOADOUT default), shift-click jumps to the LOOT LOG tab. LDB DataText left-click toggles the Gear Tracker, shift-click opens LOOT LOG, right-click stays on Reset session. Settings access is exclusively via Esc → Interface → AddOns; the redundant right-click → Settings shortcuts (and their tooltip lines) are gone

Bug Fixes

• Toast icons rendered as blank gold squares — the dark/gold restyle replaced the icon's neutral grey overlay with a solid gold rectangle at near-full alpha sitting on top of the icon. Switched to the iconHolder + AddBorder pattern GearGoalsUI uses, so the icon stays fully visible inside a thin gold frame
• Bank items dropped to TARGET on bank close — the close-time rescan was firing 0.2s after BANKFRAME_CLOSED, by which point GetContainerItemLink returned nil for every bank slot and wiped the cache. RescanBankToCache now bails when the bank is closed, and the close-time rescan was dropped (the open-time + slot-change rescans already kept the cache in sync with every move)
• Settings panel didn't appear in the Interface pane — TBC Anniversary 2.5.5 silently ignores InterfaceOptions_AddCategory registrations. Migrated to Settings.RegisterCanvasLayoutCategory + Settings.RegisterAddOnCategory, exposing the parent category to GearGoalsConfig so it nests as a Settings.RegisterCanvasLayoutSubcategory underneath

---

v0.5.2

Bug Fixes

• Roll panels overlap when multiple items are rolled — when two or more roll toasts were active simultaneously, their right-side roll panels overlapped because the toast height stayed at the base 52px while the roll panel could be taller (up to 78px for 5 entries); toast height now grows to match the roll panel, so stacked toasts leave enough vertical space

---

v0.5.1

Bug Fixes

• Game freeze on last boss loot — CreateLootToast had an infinite while loop: when max visible toasts was reached, fadeOut:Play() was async and never reduced the count, spinning forever and freezing the client; now immediately releases oldest toasts
• Duplicate toasts and history entries for rolled items — after a roll finished, the subsequent "receives loot" chat message bypassed the active-roll filter (only checked unfinished rolls) and created a second toast and history entry; now includes recently-finished rolls in the filter
• Event bus error isolation — a Lua error in one event subscriber (custom or WoW) no longer breaks the entire event chain; both EventBus:Fire() and the WoW event dispatcher now wrap callbacks in pcall

Improvements

• RollTracker rewritten to use C_LootHistory API — replaced fragile locale-dependent chat message parsing with structured WoW API calls; LOOT_HISTORY_ROLL_CHANGED for individual roll updates, LOOT_ROLLS_COMPLETE / LOOT_HISTORY_ROLL_COMPLETE for definitive winner detection; eliminates all regex patterns and the CANCEL_LOOT_ROLL grace period hack
• Safety timeout via GetLootRollTimeLeft polling — replaces the 5-second CANCEL_LOOT_ROLL delay; polls only while rolls are active, finishes stuck rolls after a 3-second grace period
• Pre-populated rolls shown on toast creation — roll toasts now display pre-existing roll entries (e.g. LootReserve reserves) immediately, instead of waiting for the next ROLL_UPDATE

---

v0.5.0

New Features

• Gold/hr tracking — tracks session value of all looted items (vendor price via GetItemInfo, AH price via Auctionator if installed); grey vendor trash and quest gold rewards included
• LDB Data Broker — creates a "ItemTracker Gold" data source via LibDataBroker; works with ElvUI DataTexts, Titan Panel, or any LDB display; main text shows combined gold/hr (raw + vendor); tooltip breaks down raw gold, vendor value, and AH value with per-hour rates and session totals; left-click opens history, shift-click opens config, right-click resets session

Bug Fixes

• Roll results missing player names — CANCEL_LOOT_ROLL fired the moment the player clicked Need/Greed/Pass (closing their roll frame), immediately finishing the roll before result messages arrived; added a 5-second grace period so chat messages populate the rolls array
• Roll capture order broken on some clients — pattern captures were assigned by position, which broke when %d appeared before %s in the format string; now identifies captures by content (pure digits → number, |H → item link, remainder → player name)
• LootReserve infinite retry freeze — OnRequestRoll retried GetItemInfo every 0.5s with no limit when an item wasn't cached; capped at 5 retries

Improvements

• Shared FormatCopper utility — IT:FormatCopper() replaces duplicated local functions across Core, Toast, and UI modules
• Positional format specifiers — FormatToPattern now handles %1$s, %2$d style specifiers for localized global strings

---

v0.4.3

Bug Fixes

• Session gold and history not showing on open — RefreshHistory() was called before historyFrame:Show(), causing the IsShown() guard to bail out; swapped order so content renders on first open

---

v0.4.2

Bug Fixes

• History icon border colored by quality — loot history rows used a quality-colored overlay on the icon border, inconsistent with toasts which use a neutral border; now both use the same neutral style

---

v0.4.1

Bug Fixes

• RCLootCouncil integration not activating — addon lookup used wrong AceAddon name ("RCLootCouncil" instead of "RCLootCouncil_Classic"), causing all hooks to silently fail
• RCLC toasts stuck forever — VotingFrame comms only fire for council/observer players; non-council raiders never received award notifications, causing toasts to accumulate indefinitely; fixed with multi-layer detection:
  • ITEM_LOOTED fallback matches distributed items to active sessions
  • 2-second polling timer checks RCLC's loot table for awarded field
  • 3-minute safety timeout auto-finishes stuck sessions regardless
• Duplicate toasts on RCLC award — loot toast appeared alongside the existing roll toast when the item was distributed; now suppressed for active RCLC sessions

Improvements

• RCLC response tracking — council votes (Mainspec, Offspec, Minor Upgrade, Pass) now appear in the roll panel with RCLC's own colored response text
• Early-return guard — OnLootTableReceived hook now skips RCLC's internal retry/reschedule calls

---

v0.4.0

New Features

• Live roll ranking panel — roll toasts now show a sorted side panel to the right, ranking rollers from highest to lowest (top 5 visible), with passes grouped at the bottom; panel persists through winner announcement until the toast fades
• Configurable chat output — new "Show chat messages" toggle in settings; when disabled, all addon chat messages are suppressed (toast-only mode)
• Neutral icon border — removed quality-colored rectangle behind the toast icon; item quality is now conveyed solely through colored item name text

Improvements

• Test roll expanded — /it test roll now simulates 15 players with random roll types (need/greed/pass/disenchant) for realistic testing
• Roll update fix — roll display now updates correctly for test, RCLootCouncil, and LootReserve rolls (fallback to toast-stored rollData)

---

v0.3.1

Bug Fixes

• Sliders not draggable — native WoW Slider frame doesn't accept mouse drag in TBC Classic Anniversary; replaced with manual mouse input (click + drag on track area, value calculated from cursor position)

Documentation

• Updated screenshots (toasts, roll details, settings panel)

---

v0.3.0

New Features

• Gold loot toasts — configurable toast notification for each gold drop, with coin icon and amount; off by default, enable in settings ("Show gold loot toasts")
• Toast direction dropdown — replaced checkbox with a proper Upward/Downward select dropdown

Improvements

• Lightened color palette — toast, bar, and history backgrounds slightly lighter and more transparent for a less heavy look
• Generic dropdown builder — CreateDropdown extracted from quality dropdown, reusable for any select control

Bug Fixes

• Gold toast never appeared — test helper only fired GOLD_LOOTED (history update) but not GOLD_DROP (toast trigger)
• Test gold didn't accumulate — display now shows both drop amount and cumulative session total

Files Modified

• Core.lua (version, toastGold default, FormatCopper helper, test gold fix)
• modules/Toast.lua (lightened palette, gold toast handler with coin icon)
• modules/Config.lua (generic CreateDropdown, direction dropdown, gold toast checkbox)
• modules/LootDetector.lua (GOLD_DROP event, test helper fires both events)
• modules/UI.lua (lightened bar/history colors)

---

v0.2.1

Documentation

• Added MIT license
• Added screenshots to README (toast notifications, loot history, roll details, settings panel)
• README now includes visual feature walkthrough with inline images

---

v0.2.0

Improvements

• Minimap & addon icon — replaced placeholder "?" with spyglass icon (INV_Misc_Spyglass_03); added ## IconTexture to TOC for addon list display
• Gold tracking fixed — money parsing now uses GOLD_AMOUNT/SILVER_AMOUNT/COPPER_AMOUNT format strings (locale-safe); previously used non-existent globals
• Gold display — history header shows "Gold this session: Xg Ys Zc"
• /it clear resets gold — clearing history now also resets the session gold counter
• Hidden bar hover reveal — when bar is locked (invisible), hovering over its position reveals it temporarily so history can still be opened
• Shift-click minimap — shift+left-click on minimap button opens loot history directly
• Quest reward tracking — items from quest NPCs now detected via QUEST_LOOT_RECEIVED and LOOT_ITEM_PUSHED_SELF fallback
• RCLootCouncil integration — hooks into loot council sessions and awards
• LootReserve integration — hooks into soft reserve rolls and winners
• Toast direction — configurable upward (default) or downward stacking
• /it test gold — simulate gold drops for testing

Bug Fixes

• Gold never tracked — GOLD, SILVER, COPPER globals don't exist; replaced with GOLD_AMOUNT/SILVER_AMOUNT/COPPER_AMOUNT pattern conversion
• Quest items not tracked — CHAT_MSG_LOOT doesn't fire for NPC quest rewards; added QUEST_LOOT_RECEIVED + CHAT_MSG_SYSTEM pushed-item fallback
• Module init crash blocked minimap — one failing module prevented all subsequent modules from loading; wrapped Initialize() calls in pcall
• Minimap button invisible — missing SetMovable/EnableMouse, wrong icon/border sizing; aligned with FishingKit's proven pattern
• Config sliders ugly — replaced BackdropTemplate sliders with custom thin-track + invisible native Slider (FishingKit pattern)
• Dropdown closed immediately — 1px gap between button and menu caused auto-close; fixed with overlap + grace period
• History blocked by toasts — history panel was attached below bar (under toasts); made it a standalone draggable pop-out

Files Modified

• Core.lua (version, /it clear gold reset, /it test gold, test LC/reserve commands, status command)
• modules/LootDetector.lua (gold parsing fix, quest reward detection, pushed item fallback, session gold reset)
• modules/Toast.lua (configurable direction, source labels for council/reserve)
• modules/UI.lua (standalone history pop-out, filters, gold display, hover reveal, lock state)
• modules/Config.lua (rewritten controls, toast direction checkbox, lock calls UI update, guarded InterfaceOptions)
• modules/Minimap.lua (spyglass icon, proper sizing, shift-click history)
• modules/RCLCIntegration.lua (new)
• modules/LRIntegration.lua (new)
• ItemTracker.toc (IconTexture, integration modules)
