[WeakAura] LF Help - Target %hp display

[Deleted]

Hello everyone.

Basicly im looking for a WeakAura which shows the hp (in %) of my current target. And in addition to that the color of this should change based on the hp of the target. I.e. when its above 80% its green, under 40% its red and so on.
The Problem at this is, how do I put all this in ONE WeakAura?
Atm I got a group of multiple strings which trigger when a specific condition is given. But the problem on this is, one of the Strings i.e. got its trigger set to "<40%" but it triggers at 40.99% aswell, and not only when its really under 40.
Any ideas?

Would be much appreciated.
Regards.

Just heading to bed so I can't type it up for you but you're going to need to use a custom function. Have it update on the event that target HP changes then you can use logic to return the % as a string and return a text color based on your conditions.

I dont think I'm able to create that

I have no idea if this is going to work, and can't test it until later today, but try putting this

Display

function()if UnitExists("target") then
 local percent = (UnitHealth("target")/UnitHealthMax("target"))*100
 return ("%i"):format(percent)
else
 return "0%"
end

Animation

 function(progress, r1, g1, b1, a1, r2, g2, b2, a2)
    
    local _,_,percent = UnitHealthMax("target")
    local red, green, blue, alpha = 0,0,0,0
    
    if percent >=80 then
        red, green, blue = 0,1,0
    elseif percent >40 then
        red, green, blue = 1,0,0
         else
        red, green, blue = 1,1,1
    end
    return red, green, blue, 1
end

    end
    return red, green, blue, 1
end

Not able to test it atm eigther.
But does the i.e. ">40" trigger when exactly 40% is given? or does it trigger like at "40.99%" BossHp aswell? since somehow it IS 40%. If it does how can you avoid it so it exactly got the color when Killshot (35.00%) range is set? ofc If it does it like this you can put it to >34 so it takes 34,99% ? but you leak 0,01% with htis method aswell, so its kinda not perfekt.

[Platinengel]

It works. And with the 40.99-problem, why you dont change the number to 39? In your case it should trigger at 39.99% ^^

Possible to post the WA string for the things mentionied above ? And what do you have to put there then when the following things have to be shown:

100-80% red color
79-36% orange color
35% yellow
above 35 green

is it:
>=80 red
>35 orange
=35 yellow
else green ?

Dont know how to put it exactly because of the .99% thingy.
Basicly I want it like i mentioned it above.
100-80 red
till 35 orange
exact 35 yellow
and under 34 green

Exactly 35% is practically impossible. Let me try to explain:
Boss with 1654987 hp (just a random number). 35% of that is 579245.45. The boss will never be at 579245.45 hp, but rather at 579246 and then 579245 (if he somehow took only 1 damage ;P).
So checking for exact numbers won't do anything.

Concerning your problem with the 35%, the same rules apply. If you have stored the percentage in a variable "percent" and use the following code:

percent > 35

it will return true for 35.0000000000001 and only evaluate to false once it reaches exactly 35 (which is practically impossible as I said) or less.

I'm bad with RGB so no guarantees that this works:

if percent >= 80 then
  red, green, blue = 1,0,0
elseif percent > 35 then
  red, green, blue = 1,0.5,0.15
else
  red, green, blue = 0,1,0
end
return red, green, blue, 1

end
return red, green, blue, 1

so this does 100-80 red, 79-35orange and under 35 green? and where do I put this and do I need any other kind of stuff like to define %HP like the guy above posted earlier? I dont even know if I need to put it >35 and <=35 or <36 and >=35.
Basicly I need it red when its 80 or above and green when I could use killshot which is 35.

If you want, you can change colors, percent-stages or even play a sound when your target hits a certain %.

Thanks alot. And the other guys who answered in here aswell.

Heya, tried to use the imported version and all I get is this error when trying to use it:

[Platinengel]

Thats not an addon-related Error. Even if it says "WeakAuras".

Many people seem to get those errors lately..I'd try to delete your CACHE-folder in wow directory.

Does this error occure only when you load this specific aura?

[Kiingy]

Sorry to necro an old thread, but in regards to that error, I've found out whats causing it and could use some help fixing it.

This part: local percentage = (UnitHealth("target")/UnitHealthMax("target"))*100, runs without checking whether you have a target.

So while editing or when it's selected the aura is visible and the animations are run, thus the animation needs to be written in a way that works even if you don't have a target. Which I have no idea how to do!

Anyone know how to fix it?

[Zulandia]

Can surround it with a check for if you have a target if you want:

if UnitExists("target") ~= nil then
    local percentage = (UnitHealth("target")/UnitHealthMax("target"))*100
end

But if it's only an issue while you're editing the aura then I don't really see the issue just suppress the error and move on.

[Kiingy]

Problem is it spams the error, like 100's of them within a few seconds.

[Zulandia]

Then add the 'fix' I put in the message.

[Kiingy]

Doesn't work, error still spams.

Edit: Found a way to fix it
