Description
# Vamoose's Neighbors
**Your neighborhood directory for World of Warcraft Housing -- see who lives where, check endeavor progress, and visit friends.**
Browse every plot in your neighborhood at a glance. See who owns each house, check which endeavor each neighborhood is running and how far along it is, discover new neighborhoods before you commit, and find your Battle.net friends' and guild members' houses across all neighborhoods -- all from one compact panel with an embedded map.

## What's New in v1.9.1
- **See when each neighbor last contributed to an endeavor.** A clock button beside the search box reads the endeavor activity log for the neighborhood you are standing in, and shows each plot owner's last contribution beside their name, colored from green (today) through to red (six weeks or more). A dash means no contribution was found for them. This works on the Neighborhood tab and the Guild tab, so charter neighborhoods are covered as well as guild ones. Note that only the neighborhood set as your active endeavor has a log to read, and that the log covers the current endeavor only, so a new endeavor starts everyone at a dash until they contribute again.
- **Record a Discord tag against any neighbor.** Each row has a Discord button that opens a text field. The tag appears beside the character name, is matched by the search box, and is saved between sessions.
- **List the least active first.** The Neighborhood tab has an Activity sort column that puts plots with no contribution at the top, then the oldest. The Guild tab has an "Inactive first" option in its endeavor dropdown.
- **Two exports.** Config can copy the current subdivision's roster, or every scanned guild member house across all neighborhoods. Both include the last contribution date and the Discord tag, as comma-separated text to paste into a spreadsheet.
- **Scrolling large guild lists.** The Directory now draws only the rows on screen, so the scrollbar keeps up in guilds with hundreds of houses. The previous 250-row display limit is gone and every guild member house is listed.
- **Choose your plot marker colors.** The palette button in the title bar opens a panel where empty-plot and taken-plot markers are switched on independently, each with a color of your choice from eight swatches. Plot numbers switch between black and white to stay readable on any color.
- **Config scrolls**, so the buttons at the bottom are reachable at any font size, and it now opens with a short description of the addon.
- **The addon pauses during combat.** Lists stop rebuilding and the friend and guild scan stops, both resuming when you leave combat.
- **Fixed:** subdivision numbers now match the number Blizzard's House Finder shows, and no longer disappear when you open the House Finder. Charter neighborhoods no longer show a subdivision number, since they only ever have one. Your own endeavor could previously be replaced by a guildmate's and stay wrong until you reloaded.
See CHANGELOG.txt for full version history.
