Turtle Death Log (TDL)
is a comprehensive and reliable hardcore death-tracking addon for World of Warcraft. It automatically captures and logs fatal moments across the server, recording the fallen player's name, level, fatal zone, and the exact cause of death.
Whether a hero falls in glorious combat or perishes to the environment, TDL ensures their sacrifice is remembered.
Key Features:
Background Data Synchronization: Silently syncs death records with other TDL users via a hidden background channel, ensuring your database stays up-to-date even if you miss a server announcement.
Smart Deduplication & Cleaning: Automatically merges redundant data, handles cross-timezone conflicts, and periodically cleans the database to keep your log accurate and lightweight.
Bilingual Parsing: Flawlessly parses both English and Chinese death announcements, featuring built-in translation dictionaries for zones and NPCs to provide a seamless cross-language experience.
Extensive Chat Monitoring: Captures death alerts from System, Broadcast, Yell, and Guild channels to ensure no death goes unnoticed.
Slash Commands:
/tdl - Open or close the main history interface.
/tdl minimap - Toggle the minimap button.
/tdl fix - Force a manual database cleanup and deduplication.
/tdl clear - Wipe all local death records.
