TomTom is your personal navigation assistant in World of Warcraft. This addon is very simple, but provides a nice set of functionality. Thanks to Esamynn for Astrolabe, which does the bulk of the work in this addon.
Bugs and Support (PLEASE READ)
Unfortunately I have been forced to disable user comments on Curse.com. For some absurd reason the site has stopped sending me emails when you guys post a new comment, making me completely unable to provide support via this means. I am still happy to provide assistance, both on Curseforge and Wowinterface:

TomTom offers the following major features:
- Set waypoints via command, or by clicking on the world map
- A draggable coordinate display with customizable accuracy. This frame can be hidden or locked.
- Player and cursor coordinates on the World Map (these can be hidden)
- A floating "crazy-taxi" style arrow that points you to your destination
- Displaying the "crazy-taxi" arrow or coordinate block in compatible LDB displays, such as NinjaPanel
- Show a waypoint that points you towards your corpse for easy recovery
- Can set waypoints by clicking on quest objective POIs on the World Map and watch frame.

Slash Commands:
/tomtom - Opens configuration GUI
In addition you can use the /way command to add and reset waypoints. In order to overcome conflicts with the Cartographer /way command, you can also use /tway to access TomTom's waypoint command. The following slash commands are available:
| Slash Command | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| /tway 14.78 23.9 | Add a new waypoint at 14.78, 23.90 | |
| /tway Nagrand 45 50 | Add a new waypoint in Nagrand at 45, 50 | |
| /tway 14.78 23.90 This is a waypoint! | Add a new waypoint with a description | |
| /tway reset all | Remove ALL current waypoints | |
| /tway reset Nagrand | Remove all waypoints in Nagrand | |
| /wayb or /wayback | Sets a waypoint at the current location | |
| /cway or /closestway | Set the crazy arrow to the closest waypoint | |
| /tway list | List the current known waypoints | |
| /tway arrow | Print the status of the Crazy Arrow |
TomTom has been designed to publish the Crazy-Arrow and Coordinate Block as LDB feeds, allowing them to be displayed in compatible display addons. I've written a very simple, easy-to-configure panel that is capable of displaying these called NinjaPanel.
If you're looking to bulk import waypoints (to track achievements, etc), a community member has provided a great addon that lets you do this easily. Take a look at Paste.
Hello. In classic i have a frame where it shows the coordinates, when i right click in the frame, it set a waypoints where my character is, i would like to do the same in retail but cant find any option to get this done, also dont know if that frames is part of an independent addon, is there any way to set waypoint where my char is with one single click or macro?
Hello,
I get the following 3 errors..

Hello,
tomtom does not work in uldum et val of eternal spring.
I have version v80300-1.1.0
what do I have to do ?
thank you
The Vale problem is due to a bug in the HereBeDragons library: Vale N'zoth Invasions #25 . I will be releaseing an update later today to fix it.
If you have a problem in Uldum, it means one of your other addons has an out of date HereBeDragons library and is overwriting it. Look at some of other reports for hints as to what other addons are breaking things.
Hi, after 8.3 i have problems with the coordinate block looking like this: https://imgur.com/a/vXy3J9c. This happens in Vale and Uldum. Sometimes /reload will fix it but it happens again at next login. Any fixes for this?
Fuzzy:
Are you using the 8.2 release of TomTom?
What other addons are you using? Others have reported that older versions of Silver Dragon, NPCScan and Zygor have outdated versions of the HereBeDragons library and are breaking TomTom.
Hello,
I am not sure if this problem is already discussed but since I don't find anything that could help me via googling, I'm just gonna ask you for this.
When I'm in combat, Tomtom will block any interactions with the world-map. Example: I am in a dungeon and want to take a look at the boss loot while I am clearing the trashmobs. Normally, i would just click the icon of said boss and it would open up the loot info. Sadly, this will not work whilst in combat.
I have tried several fixes, played with some settings of the AddOn and tried to fix it with a WeakAura to block TomTom in this interaction, but nothing seems to work. Any ideas for my problem?
In reply to SourceSven:
it also blocks opening up the dungeon finder so i can't invite people and must hear that annoying sound all the time
Ah, combat-taint. When you are in combat all addons are severely restricted in what they can do to avoid what blizzard considers cheats. In this case, it sounds like you have QUEST POI integration turned on and TomTom is getting invoked. I need to check it out and make sure TomTom by itself re-creates the problem and it is not some other addon managing to pin the blame on TomTom (this happens every few months).
What other addons are you running? Any other map enhancing or world quest addons?
how to set waypoint to world quest icon on map?
FYI in case this helps someone else:
Tomtom wasn't working for me at all in the new Uldum and Vale of Eternal Blossoms, although it still worked in other zones. After I updated Silver Dragon, Tomtom started working for me in those new zones.
Hey, just wanted to pass a couple things along:
First: Twitch was not showing an update for TomTom, I had to right click and reinstall after finding it was updated on this page. Just want to let people know in case it isn't working.
Second: Based on something I read below, NPCScan is currently breaking TomTom in Vale of Eternal Blossoms invasion phase. Coordinates and 'Crazy Taxi' arrow do no show up. I use WarfrontRareTracker to quickly click on a rare's name and get the arrow and that doesn't work either when NPCScan is active. I have not gotten any LUA errors and while the coordinates box is on my screen, it's blank with only "-----" instead of numbers. Right now it's only the Vale that this seems to be happening. Sorry I don't have more info, but that is what I was able to figure out.
In reply to cujoe_da_man:
Strange. My TomTom is up to date via Twitch -
Also not had issues with npcscan and TomTom. Weird how some do have issues and some don't. I'm normally in the group that has issues.
TomTom v80300-110
NPCScan v8.0113
Silver Dragon v4.017
Zygor v7.0.21617
In reply to ZalidTheBur:
I've suspected that Twitch hasn't been updating addons like Curse used to, this isn't the first time I've found a skipped update.
But yes, I'll wait for another update of TomTom before I turn NPCScan back on... though, honestly, I've not been using it nearly as regularly as I have been since blizz keeps changing how rares work and it hasn't be updated in so long, might be time to find something else.
I have also noticed that TomTom has not always been showing the arrow unless I do a /reload, it's not every time, but every once in a while it doesn't show up and I have to /reload to get it to work. It mostly happens in the "new" invasion zones and once in Boralus when heading for a missed (secret) treasure.
In reply to cujoe_da_man:
I am coming to the same conclusion about NPCScan, especially as we never got the sorely missed NPCScan Overlay addon back. I've been using Silver Dragon for a while now and it's very similar. Recently I started using RareScanner (https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/rarescanner) and that is so good that I would get rid of both NPCScan and Silver Dragon for it. Actually I just deleted NPCScan, but keeping Silver Dragon for now as it allows you to add custom mobs.
In reply to ZalidTheBur:
Thanks for the heads up, I'll look into both of those since the creator of NPCScan is no longer working on it :D
I've actually had zero issues with TomTom in any retail areas including Uldum and Vale.
I am also using all the addons mentioned so far : Zygor, Silver Dragon and NPC Scan.
All The Things is also working to show TomTom waypoints.
Just to add my experience.
when in panda new zne,the waypoint sdont show,but are present in big map
Please do a /tway list when the waypoint is set and post the result.
