RangeHelpRedux

Displays your live range to target (melee / ranged / dead zone / out of range) and lets you bind a key to smart-cast the right ability for your current range — even in combat.

What's new

## v1.0.0 - Initial Release

RangeHelp Redux is a complete rewrite of the original RangeHelp (2006) addon, rebuilt from scratch on current WoW APIs for Classic Era, TBC Classic, and Wrath Classic.

### Added
- Live range status frame — shows Melee / Range / Dead Zone / Out of Range at a glance, movable and resizable
- Full status frame customization: background, border, and font color + opacity per range state, custom text per state, adjustable font size
- Automatic detection of your melee and ranged abilities on your action bars
- Custom spell name override, for using the addon on non-Hunter classes
- Spell Key Bind: bind up to 4 keys to cast a different spell or macro depending on your current range to target — works reliably in combat, unlike action bar switching (which Blizzard blocks addons from doing mid-fight on any current client)
- Optional buff-check per key bind, to skip re-casting a buff that's already active
- English, French, and German localization
- Slash commands: `/rhr` (main config), `/rhr ui` (customize the status frame), `/rhr spell` (set up Spell Key Bind)
