SignalFire (beta) v1.5.0
What's new
SignalFire 1.5.0 is the largest update to the addon so far. It expands SignalFire from a primarily Triumvirate-focused group finder into a profile-aware group discovery, guild, event, notice, and player-network addon for both Triumvirate and Ascension / Conquest of Azeroth.

Installation
- Fully exit World of Warcraft.
- Delete the existing
Interface\AddOns\SignalFirefolder. - Do not overwrite an older SignalFire installation.

Interface\AddOns\SignalFire\SignalFire.toc
- Launch the game and use
/sfto open SignalFire.
Known Limitation
Some Ascension/CoA clients may experience intermittent micro-stutter during extremely heavy public-chat link activity. SignalFire includes deferred parsing, faster link handling, and a Main Chat Only option, but part of the issue appears to be related to the Ascension/CoA chat-rendering path.
Players affected by this can reduce the impact by enabling Main Chat Only or disabling visible SignalFire chat links.
