- Remove dead VARIABLES_LOADED registration (no handler existed for it) - Extract OctoLatency_StopMoving and call it from OnHide too, so a drag can't get stuck if OnMouseUp never fires on the frame - Wrap tooltip/update/login handlers in pcall, logging failures to OctoLatencyDB.errorLog instead of raising a Lua error popup - Add /octolat errors and /octolat clearerrors slash commands - Update README with a short explanation of the addon and its options Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

## OctoLatency
|
|
|
|
A lightweight latency monitor for Vanilla WoW (1.12.1). Shows a small, movable,
|
|
color-coded latency readout on your screen.
|
|
|
|
### What it does
|
|
|
|
- Displays your current world latency (falls back to home latency if world
|
|
isn't available) as `NNN ms` next to your screen.
|
|
- Color-codes the number so you can tell your connection quality at a glance:
|
|
- **Green** — under 150 ms (good)
|
|
- **Yellow** — 150-350 ms (moderate)
|
|
- **Red** — over 350 ms (critical)
|
|
- Hover the frame for a tooltip with home latency, world latency, and
|
|
bandwidth.
|
|
- Updates every 2 seconds (not every frame), so it has no meaningful impact on
|
|
game performance.
|
|
|
|
### Options
|
|
|
|
There's no settings panel — the addon is intentionally minimal. The only
|
|
"option" is position:
|
|
|
|
- **Move it**: left-click and drag the frame anywhere on screen. Its position
|
|
is saved automatically and restored on your next login.
|
|
|
|
### Error reporting
|
|
|
|
If something inside the addon errors (e.g. an unexpected `GetNetStats()`
|
|
response), it's caught instead of spamming a Lua error popup, and logged for
|
|
you to report:
|
|
|
|
- `/octolat errors` — print the last 20 logged errors (with timestamps) to
|
|
chat.
|
|
- `/octolat clearerrors` — clear the error log.
|
|
|
|
The log is also saved to your `SavedVariables` file, so it survives
|
|
logout/relog.
