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 used to do the bulk of the work in this addon, before Blizzard changed the mapping system.
Thanks to Nevcairiel for HereBeDragons, which now 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:

http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/fileinfo.php?id=7032
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.
Donations:
Some folks have asked for how they can donate money, and for many years I've enjoyed hearing about how my addons have helped other people enjoy World of Warcraft. If you would like to donate, I'd ask you to make a donation to the Colorectal Cancer Alliance, a worthy organisation that helped my sister immensely from her diagnosis through her final years. If you or a family member suspect you might have something not right in your butt, please have a doctor check it out. Colorectal cancer is one of the most preventable cancers in the world.
How can I copy to clipboard the coordinates from TomTom to share on Wowhead?
I would love a way to ban certain generic quests from creating waypoints. "Help Maldraxxus" popping up over and over isn't helpful. This isn't the addon's fault at all but it would be really nice to be able to include a list of quest IDs that mean, "Don't create waypoints for these".
Is there a way to make Questie set waypoints for TomTom automatically? I swear it was at first, but not anymore. I can ctrl+click on a quest to set a TomTom waypoint, but I thought it would be automatic. Or is it a different questing mod that does that?
WoW Classic 1.13.6 by the way.
In reply to sssnake2332:
I have the same issue, I suppose that it is a conflict with Quesitte that was updated recebtly
I have been able to track quests via tomtom but i cant set it to track any quests anymore what am i doing wrong
Hi ive been using both tomtom and dugi questing essentials. And ive noticed that tomtom seems to zoom out the world map when I shift + right click, which are also the waypoint keys for dugi, and because of that I can't use the custom waypoint option from dugi. Are there any solutions or workarounds other than disabling tomtom?
The modifier for TomTom can be configured in the control panel. Change it to ALT so they do not conflict.
In reply to Ludovicus_Maior:
I have changed the modifier to alt, but what it does now when I shift + right click is that it zooms out the map like a normal right click instead of dropping a dugi custom waypoint. It does not happen when i disable tomtom so it seems to be tomtom that's causing the problem

any news on this?

Hi there,
I barely had crazy arrow (glitchy at best) yesterday. Today it's not showing up even though everything shows check marked.
A long time ago I lost the dots on the minimap that lead to the quest area. Is that no longer a feature of tomtom's?
Really miss the dots and crazy arrow.
Thank you for this wonderful addon that I have used since the beginning of time. It's gotten me through a lot of content. Any assistance you can give is most apprecited. Again, thank you.
Xyntress:
First, lets clear up some terminology. By dots on the minimap, do you mean "A dotted line leading you to the minimap icon" or do you mean "Just the minimap icon"?
Secondly, what version of TomTom are you running? Retail or Classic?
Thirdly, if you type the following commands, what is the output:
In reply to Ludovicus_Maior:
hi there,
Truly apologize for the confusion.
FIRST: "A dotted line leading me to the minimap icon"
SECOND: Retail is what I'm using.
THIRD:
/tway 50 50 added a waypoint - 50.00, 50.00 in Ardenweald
/tway list You are 50.76, 33.50 in Ardenweald; Ardenwealdmap 1565, zone: 1565 continent: 1550, world: 946; The Restless Dreamer 57.82, 50.05 1565
/tway CrazyArrow not hijacked CrazyArrow is visible Waypoint is valid Waypoint Distance-787.49101696961 CrazyArrow point=TOP frame=UIParent rpoint=TOP xo=282.88 yo=-48.24
I added Dugi Essentials to my list of addons. Now it shows under the crazy arrow the name of quest its attached to. Along with green ant trail to the quest that I have marked.
I did get crazy arrow to work, I don't know what I did but it shows right now. It has a mind of it's own as to which quest it directs me to. I can't seem to figure out at the moment which quest it is directing me to. I thought it was only attached to the Campaign but that isn't the case at the moment.
In reply to Ludovicus_Maior:
Hi there,
Apologies about the confusion.
FIRST: A dotted line leading me to the minimap icon on the minimap (ant trail)
SECOND: Retail
THIRD: Output:

Yes, I got crazyarrow showing. However, I can't seem to determine which quest it's tied to since I click on the quests but it doesn't move.
Thank you for all your assistance.
In reply to Ludovicus_Maior:
hi there,
Having a problem when updating my post. Now I have 2 respond posts. lol
UPDATE:
I have added Dugi to my list of addons. Now I can see under the crazyarrow the name of quest the arrow is attached to. The green dotted line (ant trail) is back.
I used to be able to set a crazy arrow to get me to a dungeon entrance... but there seems to be some not so useful diamond the game seems to want to set with the control key. Is there any way to do this with the current TomTom?
Change your map click modifier from Control to Alt or Shift.
In reply to Ludovicus_Maior:
Oh, still doesn't let me "target" the dungeon itself, I CAN place a dot near it using the map click modifier. Or have I got it wrong?
How can I make a custom pins?
Keeps crashing whilst in BG's.
