What's new

v1.0.2

Pet / Minion Protection (Finalized)

  • Fully prevents enemy pet, minion, and guardian owner leaks in tooltips.
  • Tooltip title now replaces hostile pet/minion names with “Enemy Pet.”
  • All owner-formatted lines (e.g. "<Player>'s Pet/Minion/Guardian") are now scrubbed reliably.
  • Added fallback handling to cover edge cases where unit tokens were not resolving correctly.

Overhead & CVar Improvements

  • Enemy pet/minion overhead names are now fully controlled via CVars to prevent world-text owner leaks.
  • Guild-under-name CVar now restores properly when addon is disabled.
  • Improved CVar safety handling to prevent recursion or stuck states.

Nameplate Stability

  • Player levels remain visible while names are hidden.
  • Replacement text now only affects actual name FontStrings (not level or other regions).
  • Improved detection logic for pet/minion nameplate handling.
