Real Mob Health

Version: 2.18

by: SDPhantom [More]

Notice:
On February 18th, 2020, Blizzard released a hotfix that enables mob health to be displayed in the Default UI.
RealMobHealth has run its course and is now obsolete. I thank everyone for their support during the lifetime of this addon.

For existing users running the Default UI, here's a list of addons that'll provide an alternative to the UITweaks module.

2.18 (2020-01-11)
-Modified death detection to hold onto data a little longer to prevent mobs with reincarnation mechanics from spamming messages
-Internal timers now use C_Timer instead of OnUpdate to try to combat "No player named <Player> is currently playing." spam after being minimized

2.17 (2019-12-13)
-Added usage of INSTANCE_CHAT as a fallback for BATTLEGROUND. (Reports are saying BATTLEGROUND is defunct)

2.16 (2019-12-12)
-Added usage of BATTLEGROUND addon channel
-RAID/PARTY addon channels now check specifically for the home group category instead of all

2.15 (2019-12-11)
-Implemented an anti-spam measure to help mitigate Blizzard's throttle bug of the YELL channel
-TextStatusBar_UpdateTextString() code moved to a secure hook to mitigate Blizzard taint bug

2.14 (2019-12-10)
-The YELL addon channel has been added to the list of broadcast channels
-Some internal functions are now metatable-aware (opens possibilities for future features?)

2.13 (2019-09-25)
-Removed lingering debug message that was hiding in the aura scanner

2.12 (2019-09-23)
-Now detects health from a Hunter's Beast Lore
-Added ruRU localization (courtesy of vAlshebnik)

2.11 (2019-09-15)
-Localization.lua now uncludes Unicode BOM for easier UTF-8 editing

-Added deDE localization (courtesy of Figlmueller)
-Fixed zhCN, zhTW, and koKR numeric abbreviations

2.8 (2019-09-09)

2.7 (2019-09-08)

2.6 (2019-09-08)
-Added frFR localization (courtesy of Pgmbru)

-GameTooltip health text is now offloaded to the same on-use generation code that TargetFrame uses

2.4 (2019-09-05) APIVersion: 3.2
-Fixed TargetFrame text not checking options on creation
-Added health text to the GameTooltip's StatusBar
-"Show Tooltip Info" in options has been renamed "Show Tooltip Feedback" to avoid ambiguity with the new health text
-Added API version info to API
Note: APIVersion is noted in this log for continuity, however it's only available starting now
-Added RealMobHealth.OverrideOption() and RealMobHealth.UITweaksSetEnabled() to API (See APIDoc.txt)

2.3 (2019-08-11) APIVersion: 3.1
-Improved UITweaks' integration with layout addons
-Tooltip lines have been added to the localization table

-Fixed newly created nameplates not checking options

2.1 (2019-08-08)
-Implemented GetNormalizedRealmName() fallback if UnitFullName("player") fails to return realm name
-Fixed stack overflow in UITweaks

2.0 (2019-07-14) APIVersion: 3.0

-Supporting code is split into different modules
-Peer system broadcasts discovered health values and makes queries through the AddOn comm channels

UnitFramesImproved is working fine on my end. Is this the addon you're referring to?

Not sure what I can do about that one. I've been trying to figure out how to deal with normal inflated numbers due to Blizzard bugs.
Here's a pastebin of a custom OverrideData.lua using values someone posted earlier. Some weird things may happen concerning elites and bosses. I haven't been able to test any of it yet.

Long story short, this is a long-standing Blizzard bug. Inspecting the execution paths, none of them have accessed the global it's complaining about at the time the entry is generated.

Blizzard's taint system has been hopelessly bugged ever since inception with issues between party/raid frames not updating correctly if the roster changes while in combat to many secure commands throwing protected action errors if any addon registers a slash command. The dropdown menu system and even the options panels have serious issues with the taint system as well.

If you're talking about ElvUI, here's quoting the original post I made with the patch. (Including the fixes I've made.)

Originally Posted by SDPhantom

In ElvUI/Modules/UnitFrame/Tags.lua, around line 70, you'll find a comment header named Tags. Insert this right under it.

Code:

local OLD_UnitHealth,OLD_UnitHealthMax=UnitHealth,UnitHealthMax;
function UnitHealth(unit)
	if not RealMobHealth then return OLD_UnitHealth(unit); end
	local cur,max=RealMobHealth.GetUnitHealth(unit); return cur;
end
function UnitHealthMax(unit)
	if not RealMobHealth then return OLD_UnitHealthMax(unit); end
	local cur,max=RealMobHealth.GetUnitHealth(unit); return max;
end

This will replace the local references of these functions in that file with a function that pulls values from RealMobHealth.

end
function UnitHealthMax(unit)
	if not RealMobHealth then return OLD_UnitHealthMax(unit); end
	local cur,max=RealMobHealth.GetUnitHealth(unit); return max;
end

Edit: Fixed another load order issue

Thanks for making this, it's awesome. I was even able to my make own plugin for Elvui that adds a "[health:real]" tag so I don't have to edit anything every time I update.

Code:

ElvUF.Tags.Events['health:real'] = 'UNIT_HEALTH_FREQUENT UNIT_MAXHEALTH UNIT_CONNECTION PLAYER_FLAGS_CHANGED'
ElvUF.Tags.Methods['health:real'] = function(unit)
	local status = UnitIsDead(unit) and L["Dead"] or UnitIsGhost(unit) and L["Ghost"] or not UnitIsConnected(unit) and L["Offline"]

	if (status) then
		return status
	else
		local cur,max
		if not RealMobHealth then
			max = UnitHealthMax(unit)
			cur = UnitHealth(unit)
		else
			cur,max=RealMobHealth.GetUnitHealth(unit)
		end

		return E:GetFormattedText('CURRENT_PERCENT', cur, max)
	end
end

if anyone is interested. Seems to be working great so far.

In UITweaks.lua around line 169, you'll find this.

Code:

health:SetFont("Fonts\\ArialN.ttf",10,"THICKOUTLINE");

Change the 10 to something larger to increase the font size.

Note: This will be moved further down to around line 208 in 2.4.

I'm a bit old-fashioned and haven't really considered using a repository of any kind. As I'm aware of, public repositories are only good for projects that have multiple people working on them or are otherwise publicly sourced. I'm a single person working on primarily personal projects. A few of which I deem useful enough to upload for others to use. Uploading to a repository seems like just another location I have to maintain my code at with no benefit to my process. A tedious effort at best.

If you know how to get an addon to load all you need to do is put this in the lua file and it should work. I think it could easily be a part of this addon by itself without the need for a plugin such as this. You put [health:real] in NamePlates > Enemy NPC > Health and UnitFrames > Target > Health and it doesn't interfere with any of the addons so you can update elvui freely without worry

Code:

local E, L, V, P, G = unpack(ElvUI); 

ElvUF.Tags.Events['health:real'] = 'UNIT_HEALTH_FREQUENT UNIT_MAXHEALTH UNIT_CONNECTION PLAYER_FLAGS_CHANGED'
ElvUF.Tags.Methods['health:real'] = function(unit)
	local status = UnitIsDead(unit) and L["Dead"] or UnitIsGhost(unit) and L["Ghost"] or not UnitIsConnected(unit) and L["Offline"]

	if (status) then
		return status
	else
		local cur,max
		if not RealMobHealth then
			max = UnitHealthMax(unit)
			cur = UnitHealth(unit)
		else
			cur,max=RealMobHealth.GetUnitHealth(unit)
		end

		return E:GetFormattedText('CURRENT_PERCENT', cur, max)
	end
end
