Full Changelog

  • Best in Bag Scanner & In-Game Help
    [v2.1.0]

    Feature Update: Best in Bag Scanner & In-Game Help

    Best in Bag (Smart Scanner)

    • Added "Best in Bag" Button: A new utility on the control board that automatically scans all your bags to find the highest-scoring gear combinations based on your active stat weights.
    • Theorycrafting Mode (Normal Click): Populates your currently active Lab Set with the best items found in your bags, allowing you to preview the score increase before committing.
    • Auto-Equip Mode (Shift-Click): Evaluates your physical character, physically equips the best upgrades from your bags, and then automatically syncs your Lab Set to match your new reality.
    • Smart Conflict Resolution: The scanner natively understands 2H vs. 1H/Shield conflicts and intelligently replaces the weakest of your two equipped Rings/Trinkets to avoid unique item conflicts.

    In-Game Help Menu

    • Instruction Manual: Added a classic WoW-styled ? button to the top right of the Lab interface.
    • Feature Discovery: Clicking the button toggles a comprehensive help window detailing how to import gear, compare sets, and use hidden modifiers (like the Shift-Click auto-equip).

    UI & Under-the-Hood

    • Adjusted the bottom control row layout to cleanly accommodate the new "Best in Bag" button alongside the Import and Load dropdowns.
    • Implemented combat lockdown checks to prevent Lua errors if a user attempts to Shift-Click auto-equip while in combat.
