IfThen

Allows you to create your own IF THEN statements that will dynamically change the function of a button.

This addon is intended for people that have a basic understanding of programming. Specifically conditional If-Then statements.

The addon allows you to write your own if-then statements that will be evaluated and run whenever you press a button, or they can trigger on certain events ingame.
It provides a simple text editor, a fully documented API and some simple If-Then syntax so that you can string together almost anything you want to react to.

Examples:

IF HasOpenQuest("My daily fishing quest") AND InZone("Stormwind") 
THEN Cast("Fishing");

OnEvent("GroupInvite") AND InLFGQueue() 
THEN DeclineInvite() AND Reply("Sorry, I am already in the LFG queue");

Look at the FAQ page for the most asked questions, and the Examples page for examples.

Version 1.8.0 is released.
- The .TOC is updated for WOW patch 5.2.0
- HaveCooldown() should be less prone to return true for spells because of the global cooldown.
See the changelog for a complete list.

Ok, I understand. I`ll be waiting for another version to see the improvement. Thanks a lot.

hmmm. Global cooldown you say.
HaveCooldown() looks at a spell's or item's cooldown. That means the time until you can use it again (i.e your heartstone got x minutes left until you can use it).

However when i dived deeper into the subject it also seems that the blizzard functions used for this will include the GDC when query'ing for cooldown on ~~-items/~~spells (as you pointed out).

One solution i can think of just now would be to add a extra argument to HaveCooldown() so that it will ignore values below a certain threshold and still return true (hardcoding in a GCD value dosent make sense since it varies with the player's stats and some spells dont use GCD).

Update:
- It seems that items are not affected by the GCD issue. Just spells. The blizzard function does not return the GCD instead of the items cooldown, so if you check the cooldown of say a 'mana gem' or 'heartstone' then that should still return false even when the GCD is up.
- GCD is dynamic and will vary depending on the players gear, buffs etc. I've seen other addons using simpler solutions where they will just ignore spell cooldowns when they are less then 1.5 seconds.
- Been working on the HaveCooldown() function to better determine if the spell cooldown value returned is the actual spell cooldown or just the GCD and i got a somewhat working solution at the moment.
  The only outstanding issue is if you call the function too fast after the actual cast then it can return false even when you have a cooldown. This should however not be a problem in practice, since even the Tick-event only occurs every 1 seconds. This is because the blizzard function initially returns the GCD value for all spells until the GCD is done, after that it will return the spell's specific cooldown.
  In effect, i cant trust the values since they might be spell-specific or global.

Hi Jarod,

Glad to see active your addon. I need your advice. Using HasCooldown() I got a false both on GCD and the spell cooldown. I'm trying to figure out a way to distinghish among the Global Cooldown and the real spell cooldown. Any hint please? Thanks anyway.

Nope.
You got to write multiple statements.

Hey Jarod,

Is there a way to have an event trigger on every form of chat; guild, group, whisper, say, etc ? Without having to make multiple lines for each type. OnEvent("Chat","Group","","hello")

Thx.

Done.
The next version will support "system" as a channel argument for the OnEvent("Chat") event.

I got no estimate for when the next version is released though.
Lots of changes have been done and i need time to make sure stuff dosent break/implode.
