    Big Smile [:D] Request: Hud Arrow like TomTom's, Flight Masters like HandyNote's Flightmasters

    Hi,

     

    I'm a new user of your addon, comming from using Quest Helper+TomTom.  I think it would be nice to have the option for the arrow to behave like TomTom's, continuously updating even if you're just spinning in a circle without moving and changing colors from green to yellow to red depending on if you're facing the right way or not.

     

    Also, HandyNote's map mod with the Flight Masters is much superior, allowing you to see at a glance if it's a flight master for your faction or not (Green=Your Faction, Red=Opposing Faction, Yellow=neutral) and where they can fly to.  For the moment, I'm using HandyNote with your addon, which gives me that functionality.  But I'd like to see it all integrated.

     

    Also, perhaps integrating the Lightheaded data into the quest frame as a 3rd pane instead of having the normal Blizzard skinned frame open up?

    Unless I misunderstand you... Carbonite already does this. It always points in the direction of your objective and changes from yellow to purple depeding if you're pointing in the right direction.

    I'd like to see this info integrated too.

    Let me check this again then.  I admit that it might just be my perception of it as TomTom uses a more 3D arrow (like a real GPS unit).

     Edit: It's not doing it for me.  If I stand in place and spin in a circle, the arrow doesn't move.  Once I take a step in any direction it updates.  And the color never changes.  Maybe it's an option in the menus that I'm overlooking or something, but I can't find it if it is;

    It does that, except if you have rotate minimap on in the Blizzard UI options, where it can't use the arrow since the arrow does not rotate in that mode. Is that on?

    We only show flight masters for your faction.

    and where they can fly to.

    Added to todo list.

    That would require digging into the guts of LightHeaded, which is not something we want to do.
