## What's new — v0.8.1 · 2026-10-18
|

|

- **The Addons tab checks two more addons:** **RABuffs** (RAB) and **BetterCharacterStats**
|
||||
(BCS), from what those addons already broadcast. See [The Addons tab](#the-addons-tab).
|
||||
- **Raiders can answer for themselves.** DopingControl now also sends one **addon check** that
|
||||
shootyepgp builds with the matching responder answer: per addon *loaded* (with its version),
|
||||
*installed but disabled* or *not installed*. Such an answer is certain and wins over every
|

passive rule, so BCS on a warrior, RABuffs on a rogue or the original Rinse become visible.
|
||||
Raiders without it are read as before and are never shown red for staying silent.

- **Your own row** shows an addon you have installed even where the class rule says it is not

expected (Rinse on a warrior, for example).

|

- **RAB (RABuffs)** — the addon check if it answers, otherwise passive. Every RABuffs client in a raid broadcasts its buff data every
|

30 seconds, and any such message from a raider proves the addon (no version; the disabled
|

upstream version messages are read if they ever arrive). A raider who has been in the raid
|
||||
for at least **70 seconds** without a single message shows a grey "?" with the tooltip
|

**"Not seen"**, never red: this is **weak evidence**, because members without mana and
|

without a tracked timed buff send nothing at all. Before 70 seconds the cell is just unknown.

- **BCS (BetterCharacterStats)** — the addon check is the only reliable source. Without it,
|

the addon's only traffic is a message druids send on the **party** channel when their auras
|

change in **Tree of Life form**; hearing it proves the sender runs the addon. Everyone else
