 # Changelog
 
+## 1.2.5
+- Item tooltips now show how many of the item your other alts carry (bags / bank, per alt).
+- Fixed: alt info could be added twice to a tooltip.
+
 ## 1.2.4
 - Fixed: recipe items whose name differs from the crafted item (e.g. Pattern: Guardian Bracers -> Guardian Leather Bracers) showed no alt info. Recipes are now identified by item id.
