Addon Help Advance!

Dear community and developers, I came here really hoping someone can help with this

I have for a time now been looking for an addon similiar to HaloPro wich came around 5.0.x

HALO
The level 90 talent Halo for priests, to maximize to its full potential the spell would have to hit its target at max range.
Halo does the most healing and damage when cast at 25 yards to the target. This can often be a tough thing to judge.

Halopro was an addon that gave you an indicator, a bar to display when your target was 25 yards away from you +- more or less. The bar appeared and gave you a better feeling of the situation when to trigger the spell to maximize the effect of it.

I´m now looking for the same type of addon with an circle / range indicator for ex: spells like frostnova or cone of cold, warrior WW and a various of other abilities.
And no im not gonna make the circle with a whiteboard pen on my screen :ugeek:


I will give a small fee to the person can manage this, or just who have the experience and know its not possible in 1.12.1
Dear community and developers. Thanks for your help!

Isn't RangeDisplay enough?
It should be easier to backport...

such thing is kinda possible, through http://wowwiki.wikia.com/wiki/API_CheckInteractDistance

and http://wowwiki.wikia.com/wiki/API_IsActionInRange

but ofc you need a target to check the distance :)

from my tests it seems you can measure ~7yrd, ~11yrd and 28yrd with CheckInteractDistance on mobs

Haha thats rly cool :) you made alot of other good addons esp "Healing Assignments" , just wanted to mention it! :D

I think i will end up with the whiteboard pen and just draw the infinitive circle on my screen^^

Mby my first explanation wasnt clear enought but.
EX: Player A is target and Player B appears but is he inrange for WW or Cleave or is he to far away or not. :idea:

I was thinking would it be possible to have one additional distance range checker on just the Mouseover?
So player A is your maintarget frame and Player B is just on the Mouseover?
