###v1.1

###v1.01

  • Fix more bugs with talent modifiers applied to mana cost and cast time. Healbot is now performing as expected.

###v1.0

  • Fixed all data for spells with current patch 1.12 data.

###v1.0 rc2

  • 40yard range check does not work in instances. Outside in normal zones the 40yards check still works. Inside instances there is a choice of 28yards or 100 yards, to set at 28yards check the option Exact 28yard range check, for 100yards uncheck it.
  • Brought back cast time modifier with reduced penalty to scale depending on users preference as set in the options.
  • Moved most register events to fire after addon loads, this is for faster loading and zone in.

###v1.0rc1

  • Added Ranged checking function and tied into existing can cast checks, currently set to 40yards for all.

###v0.998

  • Fixed bug where if you have 5 extra people checked and then select a 6th, it errors with a null value to index local check. Note: you can now only check 4 people.
  • From this release I will start to maintain a change log. Can still remember major changes in .996 and .997 but the 10 version before .996 are now a blur, it was mostly testing and tuning heals with some other bug fixes.

###v0.997

  • Healbot is now performing better, put back the item bonus and talent modifiers, these were reduced due to the lesser heals bugs.
  • Reduced price of HealthStones, healbot should use these when you mana is starting to drop and health low, needs more tuning and feedback welcome.

###v0.996

  • Removed cast time from calculating best spell, with the introduction of item bonuses and talents, the +heals made spells with higher cast times score badly which resulted in them not being used.
  • Removed a number of function calls when not needed, significantly reduced the amount of code being consistently parsed, this means healbot is now far more efficient.
  • Removed the flashing red background, although this is a good way to indicate that the heal will overheal and it is best to abort, it annoys me and I can't be bothered to abort half the time anyway.

###v0.95 - ###v0.995

  • Generally debugging and tuning with the introduction of item bonuses and talents being applied to amount healed.
  • Updated duration and amount healed for priests greater heal spells, this change in patch 1.10 was not updated in healbot.
  • Increased price of HealthPots and HealthStones, to reduce usage of these items.

###v0.94

  • Picked up healbot with some changes from the original, which fixes a serious bug where the game freezes after a DC but added bugs where small spells are being selected.
  • Making some changes to the code and testing.
