MidnightHealerHelper 2.1.6.2

Debug Logging, Native Combat Auras & Shield Bar

New: Debug Menu

• Added a dedicated Debug page to the settings menu, also accessible with /mhh debug.

• Added an Enable debug logging toggle that takes effect immediately, independently of Apply and Revert.

• Logging is disabled by default. The logging preference and the latest 500 entries are retained across /reload.

• Added Capture snapshot, Refresh, Copy log and Clear log controls.

• Added a scrollable viewer showing the latest 100 entries, with an export window for copying the complete retained log.

• Added an English guide through the page’s ? button.

• The logger records combat transitions, throttled aura events, renderer-status changes, native aura setup failures and MHH blocked-action notices.

• Logs exclude restricted combat values, aura payloads, macros and profile contents.

Native Combat Aura Rendering

• Added a Retail 12.1 native combat renderer for general Buffs and Debuffs, supported custom buff icons, and glows triggered by an active buff.

• During combat, Blizzard’s AuraContainer handles supported spell and caster filtering, icon updates, timers and stacks internally.

• Custom icon groups sharing the same anchor use a shared native flow layout.

• The existing MHH renderer resumes outside combat.

• Fixed aura icons being discarded solely because their texture asset was restricted.

Aura Diagnostics

• Added /mhhauras for public aura-renderer setup and ownership diagnostics.

• Added /mhh aurastatus [unit] to report manual aura matches, restricted identity or caster checks, and manual glow-layer status.

• Diagnostic commands do not modify profiles or click-casting.

Shield Bar

• Added a total absorb overlay to the health bar.

• Added independent visibility, thickness, color and transparency settings for Party, Raid, Tank, Focus and Pet Frames.

• Existing Shield Bar settings are used as defaults.

• Added settings previews and English help.

• Restricted absorb values are passed directly to WoW’s native status-bar widget.

Current Combat Limitations

• Native combat sorting may differ from custom aura-list priority.

• Native combat displays do not use MHH’s Lua collision solver or displayed-instance Buff exclusions. A custom buff may therefore also appear in general Buffs during combat.

• Supported active-buff glows use their configured fixed color and opacity during combat; timer-based glow fading is not implemented by the native combat adapter.

• Missing-aura warnings, nearly-expired warnings and custom friendly-debuff matching remain dependent on accessible information. Unknown or restricted data is never treated as confirmed absence or expiry.

Compatibility & Profile Preservation

• Preserved existing profiles, SavedVariables, actionbutton assignments and secure click-casting.

• Updated the addon version to 2.1.6.2.

After updating, use /reload to load the new version.
