local _, class = UnitClass(self.unit)
local color = (CUSTOM_CLASS_COLORS or RAID_CLASS_COLORS)[class]
self.name:SetTextColor(color.r, color.g, color.b)
else
-- Not a player. Return to default color:
self.name:SetTextColor(1, 0.82, 0)
end
end)
Feel free to color non-players by reaction instead of using the default color.
If you wanted to color pets by their owner's class, the simplest solution would probably be to look at the pet's creature type and just make an assumption -- eg. beast = hunter, demon = warlock, etc. |
Thank you for this it works great.
Im confused on trying to do the "reaction" part.
I've tried:
Code:
self.name:SetTextColor(FACTION_BAR_COLORS[reaction].r, FACTION_BAR_COLORS[reaction].g, FACTION_BAR_COLORS[reaction].b)
but I keep getting errors.
Even tried:
Code:
FACTION_BAR_COLORS = {
[1] = {r = 0.8, g = 0.3, b = 0.22},
[2] = {r = 0.8, g = 0.3, b = 0.22},
[3] = {r = 0.75, g = 0.27, b = 0},
[4] = {r = 0.9, g = 0.7, b = 0},
[5] = {r = 0, g = 0.6, b = 0.1},
[6] = {r = 0, g = 0.6, b = 0.1},
[7] = {r = 0, g = 0.6, b = 0.1},
[8] = {r = 0, g = 0.6, b = 0.1},
};
local reaction = UnitReaction(self.unit, "player");
self.name:SetTextColor(FACTION_BAR_COLORS[reaction].r, FACTION_BAR_COLORS[reaction].g, FACTION_BAR_COLORS[reaction].b)
so any help would be great.
and thanks again for all your help.

P.S.
