What's new

PUGDespair: The Receipts Update

 

 Advanced Combat Tracking

  • Fatal Blow Detection: Upgraded from generic random insults to actual combat log parsing. The addon now tracks the exact spell, melee swing, or environmental hazard that dealt the killing blow and auto-injects it into your post-run report.
  • The "Wipe Catalyst" System: Added a "First Blood" tracker that silently monitors the group during combat. If someone else dies before you do, the addon officially logs them as the Wipe Catalyst in your history.

 Broadcasting & Receipts

  • Row-Specific Broadcasting: Removed the generic broadcast buttons from the main UI. You can now broadcast specific, historical log entries directly from the Wall of Shame to pull up receipts on past failures.
  • Narrative Output: Replaced the robotic data-dump text with a randomized table of conversational, passive-aggressive broadcast templates (e.g., "Digging through the archives from 07/19... Ah yes, 14 deaths and 217.00g down the drain thanks to the Healer + Tank.").

 UI/UX Overhaul

  • Blizzlike Windows: Completely overhauled the custom frames. Windows now use native Blizzard ButtonFrameTemplate designs complete with thematic portrait icons (Corpse Explosion and a Skull).
  • Native Handling: Windows are now fully draggable and will instantly close when pressing the ESC key.
  • Themed History Rows: Upgraded the Wall of Shame entries from plain text on a black background to individual "cards" featuring WoW's desaturated achievement parchment, tooltip borders, and native Quest Log hover-glow effects.
  • Safe Deletion: Replaced the invisible right-click delete mechanic with a standard UI 'X' button that triggers a native confirmation popup so you don't accidentally burn the evidence.
  • Smart Popups: The Post-Run Report will no longer jump on your screen and block your view if a group disbands while you are still fighting for your life. It now waits for you to drop combat before appearing.
  • Tooltips: Added hover tooltips to all broadcast buttons for clarity.
