🛠️ MopSkillDamage – Skill Damage Display Addon for MoP Classic

MopSkillDamage is a lightweight and intuitive addon for World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria Classic (version 5.5.1) that enhances your action bar by displaying the actual damage dealt by your abilities directly on their buttons.

🔍 What It Does

📌 Displays real damage numbers on each ability button after you use the skill.
🧠 Remembers the last damage value for each spell and shows it persistently until updated.
🧪 Supports macros: if a button casts a spell via macro, the damage will still be tracked and displayed.
🔄 Auto-updates when gear changes, ensuring damage values reflect your current stats.
🎨 Fully compatible with ElvUI 14.01 and other custom action bar addons (via universal button scanning).
💾 Saves damage values between sessions, so you don’t lose your data when you log out.

⚙️ How It Works

When you use a spell that deals damage, the addon listens to the combat log and captures the amount dealt.
That damage value is saved and displayed as a small number at the bottom of the corresponding action button.
If you haven’t used a spell yet, no number is shown — the addon avoids cluttering your UI with placeholders or question marks.
The addon scans all visible action buttons, including those created by ElvUI, Bartender, or other UI mods.
It also detects macros and extracts the actual spell being cast to track its damage.

📦 Installation

Download and unzip the addon.
Place the MopSkillDamage folder into your Interface/AddOns directory.
Enable the addon in your character's AddOns menu.
Log in and start using your abilities — damage numbers will appear automatically.
