Description

TrueSpeed

A lightweight World of Warcraft addon that measures your character's actual movement speed from map coordinates, rather than reading the game's reported speed. This means it works correctly in situations where the API lies — most notably flight paths, where GetUnitSpeed("player") returns a fixed value.

Features

  • Real-time speed display in yards/sec, % of base run speed, and optionally knots
  • Works on flight paths, taxis, vehicles, and anywhere the standard speed API fails
  • Side-by-side comparison with the game's API-reported speed (toggleable)
  • Color-coded readout so you can tell mount tiers apart at a glance
  • Movable, scalable frame with a right-click options menu
  • Auto-hides inside instances (raids, dungeons, battlegrounds)
  • Configurable sampling rate and smoothing window for the trade-off between responsiveness and stability
