Replace ad-hoc Turtle/Nampower detection with global TURTLE_WOW_VERSION and EventUtil startup flow. Remove legacy IsTurtleWoW and manual PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD frame; use EventUtil.ContinueOnPlayerLogin. Clean up libdebuff by removing combo-point capture, GetEnhancedDebuffs API, and noisy startup messages; rely on Nampower/AURA_CAST and database fallback for durations. Fix tooltip compare shift handling (cache shift state and pass through). Update xpbar to use TURTLE_WOW_VERSION. Purpose: simplify startup, avoid duplicated logic, and rely on modern APIs for accurate durations.
Seven ad-hoc OnUpdate handlers were only spinning long enough to reach
a known deadline or a next-frame defer, then unhooking themselves.
Convert them to their proper primitives:
- autovendor: 0.3s wait after junk sell → C_Timer.After(0.3, ...)
- innervatecall: cooldown-expiry ready ping → C_Timer.After(cd, ...)
- focus: re-arm UI_ERROR_MESSAGE next tick → RunNextFrame
- macrotweak: conflict scan after addons load → RunNextFrame
- ui-widgets (CreateQuestionDialog): font-measure resize → RunNextFrame
- libdebuff: post-PEW Nampower init → RunNextFrame
- bubbles: WorldFrame scan after chat event → RunNextFrame
Net -18 lines and no more throwaway frames sitting on the OnUpdate list.
Replace per-locale name tables and per-rank ID lists with single
canonical-rank lookups through C_Spell. Spell.dbc bits hoisted to
named constants at module top.
libpredict:
- Four 7-locale tables (PRAYER_OF_HEALING / REJUVENATION / RENEW /
REGROWTH) collapsed to one C_Spell.GetSpellName(rank1id) call each.
- 25-entry SPELL_IDS (all ranks of Rejuv + Renew) for SPELL_GO_SELF
HoT detection replaced by name comparison against REJUVENATION /
RENEW. No per-rank ID maintenance.
libdebuff:
- GetSpellRecField(id, "name") → C_Spell.GetSpellName(id) at all call
sites; the presence-guard pattern is gone (ClassicAPI is a hard
dep, per memory).
- GetSpellRecField(id, "rank") → C_Spell.GetSpellSubtext(id).
swingtimer:
- Hoist FLAG_AUTOATTACK / ATTR_KEEP_SWINGS / ATTR_ON_NEXT_SWING to
module-top constants via tonumber("0xNN", 16) so the SPELL_GO_SELF
hot path stops re-parsing them on every call. Lua 5.0 has no hex
number literals; strtoul-backed tonumber handles the "0x" prefix.
ClassicAPI's recent C_Spell additions cover remote-unit casts natively
(SMSG_SPELL_START co-hook caching per caster GUID), so the two parallel
cast trackers pfUI was running — libcast.lua and the libdebuff_casts
table inside libdebuff.lua — can both retire.
Migrations:
- modules/castbar.lua: focus/player cast-info gathering reads
C_Spell.UnitCastingInfo / UnitChannelInfo directly. Fallback ladder
(libdebuff_casts → pfGetCastInfo → pfGetChannelInfo) collapses into a
single call. Pushback handlers stop writing back into a non-existent
cache; the local this.endTime is the source of truth.
- modules/nameplates.lua: GetCastInfo(guid) now resolves to a unit token
via UnitTokenFromGUID and queries C_Spell, returning the same compact
struct shape downstream code expected. UpdateCastbar collapses from a
three-branch hierarchy (dead IterDebuffs / libdebuff_casts / libcast)
to one C_Spell read.
- modules/afkcam.lua: pfGetCastInfo+pfGetChannelInfo round-trip becomes
a single C_Spell.UnitCastingInfo("player") or UnitChannelInfo fallback.
- libs/libpredict.lua: HealComm timing uses C_Spell on the sender's unit
token after a small group-roster walk to resolve the sender's name.
Deletions:
- libs/libcast.lua entirely (-571 lines) plus its init/libs.xml entry.
- libdebuff_casts / libdebuff_item_icons tables and their write sites
in libs/libdebuff.lua (the SPELL_START_*, SPELL_GO_*, SPELL_FAILED_*
event handlers stop maintaining them but keep firing the
libdebuff_*_hooks broadcast surface for actionbar / swingtimer /
libtotem). SPELLCAST_CHANNEL_STOP now reads the active channel from
C_Spell.ChannelInfo.
- modules/superwow.lua's supercast block — UNIT_CASTEVENT writes into
libcast.db are redundant now that C_Spell co-hooks the same packet.
- The cast-bar item-icon override that swapped in a potion/trinket
icon for item-triggered casts. Spell icon stays; the item-icon
metadata path (libdebuff_item_icons) went with libdebuff_casts.
Steady Shot synthetic cast bar — Turtle WoW-specific:
- castbar.lua gains a pfUI.synthetic_casts[unit] fallback that fires
only when C_Spell returns nil, so abilities the engine treats as
instant but which have a meaningful wait window can still render a
cast bar.
- modules/turtle-wow.lua replaces the old libcast.customcast block with
a Nampower SPELL_QUEUE_EVENT subscriber. ON_SWING_QUEUED matching
the localized "Steady Shot" name writes a 1.4s synthetic entry;
ON_SWING_QUEUE_POPPED clears it; castbar's endMs guard self-expires
the entry as a safety net. Note: haste scaling (libcast.ApplyShotHaste)
is gone — bar may finish slightly early under +ranged haste buffs.

With every external caller of libdebuff:UnitDebuff / :UnitOwnDebuff
now on C_UnitAuras, the two public per-aura readers and the
nameplate-side cache they were feeding have no consumers.
- libs/libdebuff.lua: removes libdebuff:UnitDebuff (~120 lines),
libdebuff:UnitOwnDebuff (~75 lines), the _ownDebuffSortFunc helper,
and the local cache table. The slotOwnership / ownDebuffs /
allAuraCasts / pendingCasts bookkeeping stays — GetBestAuraCast
(libpredict) and GetEnhancedDebuffs (CleveRoids) still read it, and
the event handlers maintain it. GetSlotCaster / GetDebuffSlotMap
stay too; the DEBUFF_ADDED_OTHER handler and the debug printer use
them. File goes 2010 → 1870 lines.
- modules/nameplates.lua: deletes PlateCacheDebuffs (was already
rewritten on C_UnitAuras and unused once the display loop bypassed
the cache), PlateUnitDebuff, the cachedVerify scaffolding, and the
nameplate.UnitDebuff / nameplate.CacheDebuffs registrations.
- api/config.lua + modules/gui.lua: drops the now-defunct
"guessdebuffs" knob — its only effect was gating the dead cache.
Splits the ClassicAPI version check into a hard floor (MIN, manual)
and a soft target (LATEST, pinned by the release workflow). Below MIN
pfUI disables itself entirely as before; between MIN and LATEST it
runs normally but fires a delayed chat nudge after PLAYER_LOGIN with
the available update. PLAYER_LOGIN handlers swap to
EventUtil.ContinueOnPlayerLogin so we don't have to spin a frame for
each branch.
URLs centralize on toc X-Website fields. pfUI.lua factors out
ClassicAPIReleaseUrl(version) sourcing from !!!ClassicAPI's metadata;
modules/gui.lua and libs/libdebuff.lua replace hardcoded
me0wg4ming/pfUI links with GetAddOnMetadata(pfUI.name, "X-Website")
lookups.
release.yml gains a pre-package step that queries ClassicAPI's latest
release tag, packs it (X*10000 + Y*100 + Z), and seds only the LATEST
line in pfUI.lua so the published zip ships with the correct soft
target.
Fix stale debuff icons/tooltips on target frame after target swap
Fix debuffs not showing on nameplates for timer-less spells (e.g. Hurricane)
Fix buffwatch timer visually speeding up when another debuff fades
Remove 50ms aura cache (slotMapCache/auraFC) - caused stale debuff data
Remove "Show Only Own Debuffs" from unitframes and nameplates GUI
Force selfdebuff=0 for unitframes/nameplates on login to reset old SavedVariables
The swing timer now correctly resets when your spell is resisted or misses. Previously, a resisted Moonfire (for example) would not reset the swing timer bar even though the server had already reset your actual swing — causing the bar to desync until the next auto-attack.
Performance optimizations ported from experimental:
- libdebuff: replace 5s startup timer with next-frame defer
- libdebuff: use arg6 auraSlot directly (Nampower 2.29+) instead of GetDebuffSlotMap lookup
- libdebuff: invalidate slotMapCache on PLAYER_TARGET_CHANGED
- nameplates: detect Nampower 2.27.2+ for GUID-based nameplate lookup
Raidmarkers module ported from experimental:
- added raidmarkers.lua
- added config defaults and GUI section
- registered in modules.xml
focus.lua rework:
- removed CastSpellByNameNoQueue (Nampower's CastSpellByName now supports unit tokens/GUIDs natively)
- /focus Name: TargetByName with correct previous target restore + ClearTarget() fallback
- /focus Name: prefix match via SlashCmdList.TARGET when exact match fails
- suppress UI_ERROR_MESSAGE during targeting attempts
swingtimer fixes:
- non-Hunter ranged bar now fills left->right like MH/OH
- fix 1px artifact on Hunter bar center by using Hide() instead of SetWidth(0.1)
