Easy raid icons for tanks

[nightcracker]

Hi all!

I just made a new addon, ncMarkTarget. ncMarkTarget is an addon for tanks. It constantly marks the mob you are targetting with a certain raid target icon(configurable). This is nice because then the whole raid knows what you are targetting, and won't attack the wrong mobs.

Config:
/ncmt symbol <icon> - Sets the icon to be used for marking. Use one of the following icons: star, circle, diamond, triangle, moon, square, cross or skull. Default is skull.
/ncmt state <state> - Sets when the addon should enable itself. Possible values are: "always", "never" and "instance".

Seems like a good idea, but I have a few questions. If I'm tanking and it targets a mob, but switch targets to get some threat on something besides the burn target will it not mark that one and take the mark off the burn target?

Tanks tab target a lot to keep agro, have you implemented anything to help the mark stay on 1 target?

That's why I set my marks with the keybindings that come with the game or use to use Baud Mark.

Nope, it will ALWAYS mark your current target, it doesn't care about what you target, what the aggro is or WHATEVER, it just marks your target at all times.

Ok, that could lead to some interesting situations.... Maybe add a timer or something that only marks the target after having it selected for over 2 seconds or so, that way when tab targeting it does not move the mark around near as much.

Sounds alot like the old Automark, which actually set your target to marked after 2-3 seconds, but has been abandoned it seems. I still prefer Quickmark, as it's right there always, no worrying about macros or commands. New addons are always welcome, and I may take a look at it later.

I'll say good effort, but sounds like a less useful version of Skull Me - Addons - Curse
