What's new

## [Version 1.1.0]

### New
- Spell icons now appear on regular hit totals, not just major crits. Each total shows the icon of its biggest hit.
- Auto-attacks show your main-hand weapon icon.
- Self-heals show the icon of the spell you cast (Flash of Light, Word of Glory, etc.).
- Expanded color options: separate colors for incoming damage, incoming healing, outgoing damage and outgoing healing, each with a normal and a major-crit color.
- The color preview now shows both incoming and outgoing text.

### Improved
- Hits are matched to the spell that caused them more accurately. Each cast now labels only its own hits, instead of every hit in the next second.
- Melee swing timing is tracked, so auto-attacks are recognized even right after a spell cast (single weapon).
- Damage over time, ground effects and channeled spells (Consecration, Blessed Hammer, Death and Decay, DoTs and more) keep their spell label and icon for their full duration.
- Heals and damage are tracked separately, so a heal can no longer be labeled with a damage spell, or the reverse.
- When solo, damage that can't be matched to a spell is still shown (without an icon) instead of being dropped.
- Pet ability hits are no longer credited to your own spells.
- Pet damage now uses Blizzard's combat text by default, which shows it more reliably.

### Fixed
- Fixed a Lua error that stopped the addon from loading.
- Fixed "protected function" errors caused by the combat log on Retail.
- Fixed errors caused by "secret" combat values on Retail.
- Auto-attacks now display correctly.
- Fixed incoming damage and healing sometimes being counted twice.
- Fixed resource gains (mana, rage, energy) being shown as incoming damage.
- Fixed MSBT and Blizzard both showing the same combat text. Blizzard's copy is now hidden while MSBT handles it.
- Fixed party members' healing not being tracked correctly in groups.
- Fixed other players' heals on your party being shown as your own.
- Fixed heals on a targeted party member appearing twice.
- Fixed "Incoming" color settings not affecting incoming damage.
- Outgoing healing colors can now be changed.

### Known limitations
- Retail no longer lets addons read the combat log, so some procs and passive effects (e.g. Solace, Undying Embers) show without an icon.
- Spell-specific colors and fonts are not available in this version.
