Version: 1.09
Addon to show alliance DPS and damage in real time.
Abbreviation: //sb
This addon allows players to see their DPS live while fighting enemies. Party
and alliance member DPS is also dispalyed. In addition to DPS, each player's
total damage and their percent contribution is also displayed.
Notable features:
* Live DPS
* You can still parse damage even if you enable chat filters.
* Ability to filter only the mobs you want to see damage for.
* 'Report' command for reporting damage back to where you like.
DPS accumulation is active whenever anyone in your alliance is currently
in battle.
All in-game commands are prefixed with "//sb" or "//scoreboard", for
example: "//sb help".
Command list:
* HELP
Displays the help text
* POS <x> <y>
Positions the scoreboard to the given coordinates
* RESET
Resets all the data that's been tracked so far.
* REPORT [<target>]
Reports the damage. With no argument, it will go to whatever you have
your current chatmode set to. You may also pass the standard FFXI chat
abbreviations as arguments. Support arguments are 's', 't', 'p', 'l'.
If you pass 't' (for tell), you must also pass a player name to send
the tell to. Examples:
//sb report
Reports to current chatmode
//sb report l
Reports to your linkshell
//sb report t suji Reports in tell to Suji
* REPORTSTAT <stat> [<playerName>] [<target>]
RS <stat> [<playerName>] [<target>]
Reports the given stat. Supported stats are:
mavg, mrange, acc, ravg, rrange, racc, critavg, critrange, crit,
rcritavg, rcritrange, rcrit, wsavg, wsacc
'playerName' may be the name of a player if you wish to see only one player.
For 'target', with no argument, it will go to whatever you have
your current chatmode set to. You may also pass the standard FFXI chat
abbreviations as arguments. Support arguments are 's', 't', 'p', 'l'.
If you pass 't' (for tell), you must also pass a player name to send
the tell to.
Examples:
//sb reportstat acc
//sb rs crit
//sb rs crit p
//sb rs acc tell suji

* FILTER
This takes one of three sub-commands.
* FILTER SHOW
Shows the current mob filters.
* FILTER ADD <mob1> <mob2> ...
Adds mob(s) to the filters. These can all be substrings. Legal Lua
patterns are also allowed.
* FILTER CLEAR
Clears all mobs from the filter.
* VISIBLE
Toggles the visibility of the scoreboard. Data will continue to
accumulate even while it is hidden.
* STAT <statname> [<player>]
View specific parser stats. This will respect the current filter settings.
Valid stats are: acc, racc, crit, rcrit
Examples:
//sb stat acc
Shows accuracy for everyone
//sb stat crit Flippant Only show crit rate for Flippant
The settings file, located in addons/scoreboard/data/settings.xml, contains
additional configuration options:
* posX - x coordinate for position
* posY - y coordinate for position
* numPlayers - The maximum number of players to display damage for
* bgTransparency - Transparency level for the background. 0-255 range
* font - The font for the Scoreboard. This defaults to Courier but it
it may be changed to one of the following fonts:
Fixedsys, Lucida Console, Courier, Courier New, MS Mincho,
Consolas, Dejavu Sans Mono.
* fontsize - Size of Scoreboard's font
* sbcolor - Color of scoreboard's chat log output
* showallidps - Set to true to display the alliance DPS, false otherwise.
* resetfilters - Set to true if you want filters reset when you "//sb reset", fa
lse otherwise.
* showfellow - Set to true to display your adventuring fellow's DPS, false other
wise.
Caveats:
* DPS is an approximation, although I tested it manually and found it to
be very accurate. Because DPS accumulation is based on the game's notion
of when you are in battle, if someone else engages before you, your DPS
will suffer. Try to engage fast to get a better approximation.
* The methods used in here cause some discrepancies with the data reported
by KParser. In some cases, Scoreboard will report more damage, which
generally indicates that KParser is not including something (ie, Scoreboard
will be more accurate). However, there are cases where KParser is reporting
damage that Scoreboard is not, and I'm currently focused on resolving this
issue in particular.
* This addon is still in development. Please report any issues or feedback to
to me (Suji on Phoenix) on FFXIAH or Guildwork.
