ChannelAlert 1.0.4
Authors: Kpihuss & Gingerbel
Date: 06/10/2026

ChannelAlert is a derivative of the original RetAlert addon by Zomega.

LANGUAGES
- English and Spanish are included.
- English is the default language on a fresh install.
- Open /channelalert and enable "Use Spanish" to switch the interface to Spanish.
- You can also use /channelalert language en|es (or /channelalert idioma en|es).
- Ability and career names remain the original in-game English names so they match RoR and the Career Builder.

WHAT IT DOES
- Alerts the player when a configured monitored ability hits them.
- Supports multiple abilities at the same time.
- Uses an in-game LibGUI/LibConfig configuration window.
- Includes Destruction channelled abilities from the current Return of Reckoning Career Builder data.

UPGRADE / MIGRATION
On first load, if ChannelAlert has no saved configuration but RetAlert_Settings exists, ChannelAlert imports those settings. English remains the default unless Spanish is explicitly selected. The alert window intentionally keeps RetAlert's internal window identifier so existing Layout Editor placement can continue to be reused.


Version 1.0.4 note: the alert image now switches automatically between the bundled English and Spanish banner art based on the selected addon language.


Version 1.0.4
- The ability catalog is fixed in the addon code.
- No custom Ability IDs can be added from the configuration interface.
- Any legacy custom IDs from 1.0.2 are ignored and cleared.
- Every built-in ability can still be enabled or disabled individually.
- The ability selector is grouped by career across multiple pages.


Version 1.0.4
- Removed the former Slayer trigger completely from the monitored catalog and settings UI.
- The Abilities tab now uses a tighter compact layout while retaining career grouping and per-ability toggles.
- Saved ability toggles are normalized to the current hardcoded catalog, pruning stale IDs from older versions.
