2 weeks ago Blizzard removed the ability to use items for range checks while in combat, all of those yard based range checks were based on different items from all around the game, so right now those fallback to UnitInRange which is a 40 yard check however it only works on group members.
Using item checks outside combat then falling back to a different check in combat wouldn't really make sense since it would give different ranges checks the second you would start shooting the target, so we stopped using items checks entirely. The assist and attack spells work fine however it limits the user to only use learned spells, and there are some NPCs in the game that you can't assist nor can attack, so it's impossbile to check their proper range.
Hi Resike,
Not sure when this occurred but I discovered that apparently range finder no longer functions as expected. Using current release, 7.3.6 To give specifics, Ranger Finder check-box clicked, Enable clicked, which enables options.
Spell/Item 10 yard 20 yard 30 yard 40 yard 45 yard
Using spell/item works as expected but with a global profile is cumbersome to keep changing classes. Clicking the save per character will function as expected, but it seems now each profile some options are not configured, thus having to redo each. Sigh.
Using 10, 20. 30, 40 yard option has no impact on range at all. The target is always highlighted whether in range or not. This completely negates the option rendering it useless.
I hope you have time to figure out why this function no longer works properly. I would prefer a 40 yard range to be functional again as intended. Time saver across 9 characters.
Thanks in advance, been using this addon for 15-20 yrs, hate to give it up.
