Route Alert

🧭 RouteAlert Draw your route. Follow the line. Plot a route on the world map, then follow it. RouteAlert draws your route as a bright blue line on top of the map and minimap, guides you with an on-screen arrow, chimes at each stop, and alerts you near the gathering spots you mark. You do the moving; RouteAlert keeps you on track. 🏃

🆕 New in 1.14 ⭐ Favorite routes. Star a saved route and it moves to its own Favorites section, shows up in the world map button's menu for one-click loading, and is there on every character on your account. New in 1.13 💀 The way back to your body. When you die and release, a red line on the map and minimap runs from the graveyard to your body, going around steep cliffs and your avoid areas, and the guide arrow walks you there with the yards and time left. Your own route waits and comes back once you're alive. ⏭️ Right-click the guide to skip to the next stop. Click it to open the route window. 🔇 Stays out of chat. Messages from buttons and the map flash on screen instead. Tick Show messages in chat if you'd rather have them there. New in 1.12 ⏱️ Gathering lap stats. On a gathering loop the guide shows your lap time, your last lap and about how many nodes an hour you're getting. /ra laps has your best and average. 🌫️ Reached nodes fade out on the map and minimap until they should have respawned, so you can see what you've just cleared. 📋 Paste /way lines from guides and websites, like /way Elwynn Forest 42.1 65.9 Goldshire, and they become waypoints. 👥 Send a route to your group with one click. They choose whether to load it or just save it. ❗ Questie objectives. Add the nearest spot for each quest in your log, then auto-plan the order. 🦅 Flight path hints. When a flight path you know is much faster, the guide tells you which one to take, and auto-plan offers a second route that uses your flight paths, so you can pick walking or flying. 📏 Route length and walking time in the route window, and /ra stats for mounted time. 🎁 Features 🗺️ Plot on the world map. Press Plot route and click along your path. Left-click adds a waypoint, right-click removes the nearest one, dragging draws a line that becomes a few waypoints along it, and middle-click puts the tool down. 👀 See it before you click. The next numbered pin and the leg it would add follow your cursor. 📍 Live route line. A green line runs from you to your next stop, the rest of the route is blue, and finished legs fade out. The same route shows on the minimap, cut off at its edge, and follows its zoom and rotation. 🧭 On-screen guide. A draggable arrow with distance and a turn hint. Right-click it to skip to the next stop. A 🔔 chime plays when you reach each stop, and the guide moves on by itself. Choose the arrival and marked-spot sounds and how loud they play. 🧠 Auto-plan. Add stops in any order and RouteAlert puts them in the shortest order, starting from where you stand. It can also pick up marked spots near the path. Undo plan brings your old order back. ⛏️ Optional GatherMate2 support. Plan a farming loop through the herb, mining, fishing or treasure nodes GatherMate2 has recorded on a zone. 🧗 Steep terrain avoidance. Built-in maps of steep ground in the Barrens and around the six main cities. Routes go around it, and the outlines show on the zone map. Inside a city, your route follows the streets you picked. ⛰️ Avoid areas. Mark a mountain, lake or camp as a circle, or draw a line along a ridge. Legs that cross one show the way around in orange, and Route around areas (on the route window's Plan tab or in the map menu) turns that into real waypoints. 🌿 Gathering spots. Mark spots on the map or where you stand, and get an alert when you pass near one. 💀 Corpse runs. After you die, a walking route back to your body on the map and minimap, with a skull where you fell. Turn it off in the options or with /ra corpse off. 🏰 Multi-level cities such as Undercity. Each stop remembers its floor, and the guide tells you when your next stop is on another level. 💾 Saved routes, favorites, loop mode, and import/export as plain text for sharing. Saved routes are shared by all your characters. 📘 Optional RestedXP Guides support. Copy the next locations from your current guide into your route. 🧰 World map button and toolbar. Click the button to open the route window right on top of the map; right-click for a quick menu with every tool. ⌨️ Commands Command What it does /ra Open the route window /ra plot Plot a route by clicking on the world map /ra options Open the options /ra color blue Route line colour: blue, gold, green, red, purple, white, reset, or your own r g b [alpha] (0-1 or 0-255) /ra width <2-8> Route line width (default 4) /ra add [name] Add a waypoint where you stand /ra start / /ra next / /ra loop Start the route, skip to the next stop, toggle looping /ra plan Put your waypoints in the best order (plan undo, plan spots, plan detour <yd>) /ra terrain on|off Turn steep terrain avoidance on or off /ra sound list List the alert sounds (sound arrive <n>, sound spot <n>) /ra volume <0-100> Alert volume /ra avoid [yards] Mark an area to go around (avoid apply, remove, clear, list) /ra node [label] Mark a gathering spot here (/ra delnode removes the nearest) /ra save <name> / /ra load <name> / /ra routes Save, load and list routes /ra fav <name> Star a saved route as a favorite, or unstar it /ra import / /ra list / /ra clear Import a route, list waypoints, clear the route /ra rxp [n] Add the next n locations from your RestedXP guide /ra questie [n] Add your nearest n Questie objectives /way [zone] x y [name] Add a waypoint from a guide (when TomTom isn't installed) /ra share [name] Send your route to your group, or to one player /ra laps Lap times and nodes an hour on a gathering route /ra stats Route length and travel time /ra flights Flight path hints on or off /ra fly Flights that would save time on the rest of your route /ra gather [herbs|mining|fishing|treasure|all] Plan a loop through the GatherMate2 nodes in your zone (gather cap <n>, gather loop) /ra minimap Toggle the route line on the minimap /ra corpse [on|off] The route back to your body after you die /ra where Show your map ID, coordinates and floor /ra help Show all commands 🛡️ RouteAlert never moves your character. It only shows the way and alerts you. RestedXP Guides, GatherMate2 and Questie are optional; without them, everything else works the same.

Draw it once. Follow the blue line. 🔵
