Profession Cooldown Tracker Forever

Never forget a transmute again. Profession Cooldown Tracker Forever remembers the long profession cooldowns of all your characters on all realms and shows them in one small window, so you can see at a glance which alt is ready to craft.

Features

  • Account-wide overview: every character's cooldowns in one list, with character names in class colours.
  • Sorted by remaining time: cooldowns that are ready are listed first and shown in green as Ready.
  • Exact ready time: hover over a row to see the date and time when the cooldown will be ready.
  • Works offline for alts: timers are saved with server time, so they stay correct after logging out, restarting the game or switching characters.
  • Safe and reliable: values the game reports as unreliable (for example during combat) are never saved. The addon doesn't scan during combat and catches up when combat ends.
  • Fully configurable: add your own spells or items, group several spells into one shared cooldown, or temporarily disable entries.
  • Lightweight: no libraries and no dependencies.

Tracked by default

Cooldown Profession
Transmute (Arcanite, Iron to Gold, Mithril to Truesilver, all elemental transmutes; one shared cooldown) Alchemy
Mooncloth Tailoring
Salt Shaker (item) Leatherworking

Spells your character doesn't know are simply ignored. You can add more cooldowns in the options menu.

The cooldown window

  • Drag with the left mouse button to move it (unless locked). The position is saved.
  • Hover over a row to see when the cooldown will be ready.
  • Ctrl + right-click a row to hide it. A plain right-click does nothing, so you can't hide a row by accident. Use /pctf unhide to show all hidden rows again.
  • Realm names are added automatically as soon as you have characters on more than one realm. You can also switch them on permanently with /pctf realm.

Options menu

Open it with /pctf config or via Esc → Options → AddOns → Profession Cooldown Tracker Forever.

Display – the same settings as the slash commands, just a click away:

  • Show window – show or hide the cooldown window
  • Lock window position – prevent the window from being moved
  • Show ready cooldowns only – hide everything that is still on cooldown
  • Always show realm names – show realm names even with only one realm
  • Show hidden rows – bring back all rows you hid with Ctrl + right-click
  • Rescan now – read the current character's cooldowns again
  • Reset this character – delete the saved data of the current character and rescan (asks for confirmation)

Tracked cooldowns – the list applies to all characters on your account.

  • Checkbox: temporarily disable an entry. Its saved timers are kept.
  • X button: delete an entry from the list.
  • Add a new cooldown:
    • ID(s): enter a spell ID. To track a shared cooldown, enter several spell IDs separated by commas or spaces. They will be shown as one row.
    • Item ID: tick this box to track an item cooldown instead (for example the Salt Shaker, item 15846). Only one item ID per entry.
    • Display name: optional. If you leave it empty, the spell or item name is used.
    • A live preview with icon and name shows what you are about to add. Unknown IDs and duplicates are rejected.
  • Reset to defaults: restores the default list after a confirmation. Saved timers of your characters are kept.

Slash commands

Command Description
/pctf Show or hide the window
/pctf config Open the options menu
/pctf lock Lock or unlock the window position
/pctf ready Toggle: show only cooldowns that are ready
/pctf realm Toggle: always show realm names
/pctf unhide Show all hidden rows again
/pctf scan Rescan the current character's cooldowns now
/pctf reset Delete the saved data of the current character and rescan
/pctf del Name [Realm] Remove a character from the list (current realm if no realm is given)

Good to know

  • A character's cooldowns are recorded once you log in with that character. Log in each crafter once after installing.
  • Each character only updates its own data. Other characters are changed only by /pctf del.
  • Item cooldowns are only read while the item is in your bags.
