Ribbon

Ribbon shows where your destination is on a compass bar at the top of your screen, and on the world map and minimap. It works with your quests, RestedXP, TomTom and your own waypoints, and other addons can send it waypoints too.

Description

A navigation HUD for WoW Forever

  • Compass ribbon: a heading bar with cardinal and ordinal labels, 5° and 15° ticks, a live coordinate badge and a marker per waypoint.
  • Map and minimap pins: the same waypoints on the world map and minimap, through the HereBeDragons-Pins instance already loaded by RXPGuides or Forever_Guide.
  • Waypoint API: register, remove, hide and track waypoints from any addon, with arrival callbacks.
  • TomTom bridge: waypoints set through TomTom (by other addons or /way) also appear on Ribbon's compass with TomTom's own map dot (in the theme you chose in TomTom); TomTom keeps drawing its own map and minimap icons. Ribbon never installs a TomTom global or /way, and does nothing if TomTom is absent. Written against TomTom v4.3.12.
  • RestedXP on the compass: the waypoint RXPGuides is currently pointing its arrow at appears as a compass marker with RXP's own target icon. RXP keeps drawing its own arrow and map pins; Ribbon only reads it.
  • Tracked quest on the compass: the quest you track in the game appears as a compass marker: the quest turn-in icon for a turn-in or anything without a monster or item objective, a skull for a kill objective, a bag for an item objective, and the pick-up icon for a quest to accept.

This addon holds no guide logic, but is a helper for running through RXP and other guides.
