Allows the user to create quickslot bars of any size they want with options to be faded out of combat etc. Different back colours can be added also to help identify bars quickly.

Unzip to the Plugins folder.
You will also need Turbines standard code and DeusDictums Dragbar

load BevyOBars2 using the inbuilt manager. If you notice missing items in your quickslots then use the auto-loader file instead.

/BB

Shows a list of slash commands

/BB module

To select optional modules

/BB show

To show all bars regardless of opacity or fade setting. To reset unlock, then lock the UI, or switch stance/hover over bar etc.

/BB nobar

To create a new bar, should you delete them all by accident.

/BB bar

To show a list of all bars.

When the UI is unlocked the dragbar can be used to move bars around, holding down Alt will snap the bars to an invisible 16px grid. Bars will snap to each other upon drop, unless shift is held down when moving. (Note: Bars don't snap to each other if you hold alt!)

Most options can be found by unlocking the Ui and clicking on the "+" button at the top left of every bar. Note that this hides the first quickslot (there were layering problems). This allows you to add new bars, delete bars and open the full option dialog. Here you can change the size of a bar, it's padding, icon size, colour and background opacity.

Monitor

NEW!This was a feature request for DreadApex.
Bars will monitor the current buffs and debuffs on a player and if any of a list of buffs is there (or not there) then the bar will show. Spelling must be perfect! The module contains a feature that collects buffs per class and records them to make this easier. I have used this to create bars to remind me to use certain buffs or foods, to stay in certain stances, to pop up my anti-stun skills when stunned etc etc.
This essentially makes the Stance and Proc modules (for everyone except Runekeepers, Hunters and Champions) unnecessary.

Combat

Whereas the fader module, below, will fade a bar dependant on combat status and mouse over it will never hide a bar completely - ie it can still be seen by the mouse even if invisible. This module allows complete bar hiding dependant on combat status.

Stance

Bars that only appear when you are in selected stances. (NOTE: Wardens, according to Turbine, don't have stances)

Fader

Allows you to change the opacity of a bar in and out of combat and on mouse over.

PopUps

Changes the bar so that it collapses when a slot is clicked on, replacing the Base slot with the icon that is clicked on. Right clicking just opens/close and left clicking activates the icon. i.e. the same as my popups plugin!

LPM

Hides the bar till you are low on Power or Morale. Yes, I said I would never add this feature...

Proc

There are proc modules for most classes; for example the Runekeeper module allows you to select bars to only appear when at a certain attunement level, Guardian shows bars on parry/block etc.

Debuff

Shows bars when a certain category of de/buff hits. NOTE: Not well tested yet!

Skin

This module allows you to apply a graphical skin to the bars. You will need to adjust gap/pad to make it display correctly. If you wish to add more skins then add a 64x64 tga to the skins directory in BevyOBars and add its name to the SkinList in there too! NOTE: If you edit a skin you will need to reload the game for the graphic to change, just like the main skins.

Label

Makes the "name" label show on the bar.

NOTE: Certain Proc modules have not been well tested, for example the minstrel module (I don't have a minstrel). The Burglar module didn't work at all - Turbine has not activated the code yet, despite it being in the LUA documentation. Also, these are based NOT on scanning buffs, but the new functions provided in the LUA code. So, be aware that they cannot detect everything.

Many thanks to DeusDictum, D1Hicks, Valdacil, Garan, Ganoderma, Pengoros, Kragen...
Major rep+++ to DreadApex who has been doing stirling work in motivating me to add new modules and playtesting them for me.

This plugin was made by me, for me! I hope you get some good use from it. If not, please be constructive with your comments - I don't get paid for this!
I have NOT tested this with non-English clients. Sorry.
Apart from the core plugin - which I feel is of beta quality, built on the beta turbine code - I consider this to be Alpha work. There WILL be bugs!

The Burglar proc module and Hunter Parry response do not work at all and have been disabled.
Sometimes when you delete a bar the plugin throws errors. Reloading the plugin fixes this. Everytime I track one source of this down another appears...

14/12/11 Eili took pity on my art skills and provided some better icons!
13/12/11 Due to the Turbine Loader Bug, I have added an alternative load wrapper for those that want to use the Turbine Plugin Manager. This sticks a big ugly (my art skills are poor!) icon in the middle of the screen when the plugin first loads, but stops you losing items. If you are using this then DO NOT select Bevy to autoload as well.
8/12/11 Another attempt at a bug fix! This one with the option sliders - be warned. May be funky.
28/11/11 Attempted bug fix
23/10/11 Skinnable Version Isil: Changed a few lines to allow better skinning. Many thanks to Eili for the work they have done. If you move the file "isil.lua" from the Isil folder to the Bevy2 folder then the hiderbar will be recoloured to better fit the isil scheme. Eili also re-coloured all the skins, so I have uploaded all their work here too...
2/10/11 Minor bugfix in monitor module. What confuses me is it shouldn't have worked *at all* and yet I have had months of happy playtime. Confused? Yes.
3/9/11 Added the spikadelia Label Module (version 1!) Very much untested, but thought I would get it here quick as I am not sure I will use it myself!
8/8/11 Just a change to the text above - but thanks to Egowelt for reminding me about Bootstrap!
3/7/11 Now multi-lingual - I hope! - if you install this. Unlike other patches this does not invalidate the English language saves. Or it shouldn't. This feature is pretty much untested as I only have the English language client!
