# Mythic Scrolling Battle Text Forever: Initial Release

Scrolling combat text built for WoW: Forever. Damage and healing float up from lanes on either side of your character, with spell icons, center-screen alerts and a full options panel.

## Combat text
- Outgoing damage and healing on the right, incoming damage and healing on the left
- Rolling totals that merge rapid hits into one number so the screen stays readable
- Crits get larger text, with an option to make every crit a major crit
- Spell icons next to your numbers, with a best guess at which spell each hit came from
- Pet damage shows your pet's portrait
- Damage-over-time and ground effects (Consecration, Blizzard, Corruption and others) are identified when possible
- Delayed hits like arrows and bolts get the right spell icon

## Center alerts
- Timed alerts that show "Faded" when the effect ends (Bloodrage, Evasion, Ice Block and more)
- Cast-only alerts for abilities with no fixed duration
- Grouped alerts for hunter aspects, paladin auras, seals, armors and shields, where a new one replaces the old
- Blessings and similar buffs show the target's name when cast on someone else
- Racial abilities for the Forever races

## Look and feel
- Curved arc or straight vertical scrolling
- Choose from your game's fonts and bundled fonts, plus LibSharedMedia fonts if you have them
- Adjustable text sizes, colors, speeds, durations and arc shapes
- Profiles, so you can keep different setups

## On-screen positioning
- Drag the lanes to where you want them while sample text streams in your chosen font
- Each lane shows the path its text will travel, curved or straight depending on your style
- Left, Right, Up and Down buttons for fine adjustment (hold Shift for bigger steps)
- Change font and text sizes without leaving the preview
- Open it from the Motion tab or with `/msbtmove`

## Options
- `/msbt` opens the options panel (also in the AddOns settings list)
- Choose per category whether this addon or the default Blizzard text shows

## Known notes
- Built for the WoW: Forever client. It reads combat in a way that depends on that client's combat events
- Some ability attributions are best guesses, especially when several effects overlap
- This is an early release, so please report anything that looks wrong
