FarmHud

Description

Turn your minimap into a hud for farming ore / herb.

 

WARNING: ADDON_ACTION_FORBIDDIN with Midnight

Unfortunately, I have to disable the ping function for FarmHud, and it will remain disabled until /reload is executed.

The reason: The PingLocation function is now a protected function. Unfortunately, I currently see no other way to prevent ADDON_ACTION_FORBIDDEN.

Classic clients are not currently affected.

I'm currently frustrated and angry with Blizzard. Not a good state to be in when contacting Blizzard.

 

Minimap / Nodes / FarmHud

Blizzard has designed the Minimap element as All-in-One (Terrain texture + Nodes) and the nodes are inaccessable for addons.
It could not be separated. It could not be copied. Minimap and FarmHud can't be displayed at the same time. While mouseover is activated (Mouse on), the area for access to the 3D world is limited to the left and right on the screen boundaries. (It's like the Highlander: There can only be one.)

Tested version 7.13.0 @ 2025-05-10.  ● DragonFlight UI Classic | Incompatible -- Force background transparency of minimap to 100% and makes the minimap to a secure frame. That prevents close and/or move in combat. Tested version 0.33.2 @ 2025-08-10

 

Problems and possible workarounds

[1] Use of anonymous frames makes correct functioning more difficult. Possible workaround: Disable "Show elements" in FarmHud Options.

@Authors of Minimap and UI AddOns

I've added a function to register (anonymous) frames that anchored on Minimap. Please use it to make smooth cooperation between our AddOns possible.  FarmHud:RegisterForeignAddOnObject( <frame object>, <addon name> )  ~~ No addon should have the sole claim to the minidap frame. We should use it cooperatively. ~~

 

Dragonflight problems

    ▻ I'm currently getting error messages after changing the keyboard layout. Hope it only happens to me.
