Could someone add class colors to this addon for me?

I found a target of target tooltip addon a while back and it works fine, but I wish the ToT text showed class color as well as friendly/enemy npc color.

Could someone add that for me? I'd do it if I knew how, and I couldn't find any other ToT on tooltip addons that show class color.

Oh, and could you remove the fade out animation and just make the tooltip fade instantly instead of the default 2-3 seconds.

Lua Code:

local targetting = ""
local TARGET_PREFIX = TARGET..":|cffffffff ";
local ToTTT = {}
 
GameTooltip:HookScript("OnUpdate", function(self, ...)  
    ToTTT:AddTargetToTT()                   
end)
 
function ToTTT:AddTargetToTT()
 
    if ( not UnitExists('mouseovertarget')) then return end
    
    local targetLine
    local useExisting = false
    
    for i = 2, GameTooltip:NumLines() do
        targetLine = _G["GameTooltipTextLeft"..i];
        if (targetLine:GetText():find(TARGET)) then
            
            useExisting = true
            break;
        end
    end
 
    targetting = UnitName("mouseovertarget")
    if (targetting ~= nil and targetting ~= "") then 
        
        if useExisting then
            targetLine:SetText(string.format("%s %s |r", TARGET_PREFIX, targetting ) )
        else
            GameTooltip:AddLine( string.format("%s %s |r", TARGET_PREFIX, targetting ) )
        end 
        
        GameTooltip:Show()
    end
end

Lua Code:

local SET_TEXT = TARGET .. ": |cff%02x%02x%02x%s|r"
local MATCH_TEXT = "^" .. TARGET
 
local last
GameTooltip:HookScript("OnUpdate", function(self)
    local name = UnitName("mouseovertarget")
    if not name or name == "" or name == last then return end
    last = name
 
    local r, g, b
    if UnitIsPlayer("mouseovertarget") then
        local _, class = UnitClass("mouseovertarget")
        local color = (CUSTOM_CLASS_COLORS or RAID_CLASS_COLORS)[class]
        r, g, b = color.r, color.g, color.b
    else
        r, g, b = GameTooltip_UnitColor("mouseovertarget")
    end
 
    for i = 2, self:NumLines() do
        local line = _G["GameTooltipTextLeft"..i]
        if strfind(line:GetText() or "", MATCH_TEXT) then
            line:SetFormattedText(SET_TEXT, r * 255, g * 255, b * 255, name)
            return self:Show()
        end
    end
    self:AddLine(format(SET_TEXT, r * 255, g * 255, b * 255, name))
    self:Show()
end)

I'll have to get back to you on the fading thing; I don't remember offhand the method name that needs to be overwritten for that.

Thanks a bunch.

Don't worry about the fade thing, I'll tinker around until I figure it out.

Hey Phanx, just letting you know that the code you gave doesn't really work. The text keeps disappearing for some reason. Not sure why.

Try removing "or name == last"

Thanks semlar, that fixed it.
