SIMPLELUATWEAKER
--------------------------------------------------

SimpleLuaTweaker is a lightweight, Blizzard-friendly addon that improves
World of Warcraft's default Lua error window without replacing it.

The goal is simple:
- Make the error window more usable.
- Keep the default Blizzard UI intact.
- Avoid fragile hooks or invasive modifications.
- Minimize the risk of breakage across patches.

If Blizzard didn't already do it this way, this addon does it *carefully*.

--------------------------------------------------
FEATURES
--------------------------------------------------

• Resizable Lua error window
  - Adds a small external resize tab instead of modifying the frame itself.

• Adjustable font size
  - Fine-grained slider.
  - Updates live while the error window is open.
  - Includes a reset button to restore the default font size.

• Combat-safe error handling
  - Optionally suppresses Lua errors during combat.
  - Errors reappear automatically once combat ends.
  - Optional one-time chat notice per combat (no spam).
  - If /slt lua is used in combat, the window opens once combat ends.

• Complete error suppression (optional)
  - Suppress all Lua error popups entirely.
  - Errors still occur in the background.
  - Optional one-time chat notice per session.
  - While enabled, combat-only suppression is disabled and inactive.
  - Enabling this option also enables the unread notification system,
    so hidden background errors are not forgotten completely.

• Unread Lua error notification system
  - Adds a small horn notification tab to the Lua error window.
  - Grey horn means there are no unread Lua errors.
  - Red horn means new unread Lua errors are available.
  - The horn tooltip shows the current unread Lua error count.
  - Repeat counts of the same acknowledged error do not trigger new alerts.
  - Mark current Lua errors as read with a simple Yes/No popup.
  - Lua errors can be marked as read automatically when viewed.
  - Previous/Next navigation can mark viewed Lua errors as read.
  - Optional reminder messages can warn you about unread Lua errors.
  - Reminder interval is configurable from 1 to 30 minutes.
  - Includes a reset button to restore the default reminder interval.

• Bottom unread status bar
  - Adds a small Blizzard-style status bar to the bottom of the Lua error
    window.
  - Shows the current unread Lua error count while viewing errors.
  - Updates together with the horn notification system.

• Blizzard "many errors" popup management
  - Helps manage Blizzard's "AddOns are experiencing a large number of
    errors" warning popup.
  - Adds SLT-managed top and bottom bars to the popup.
  - Lets you move the popup by dragging SLT's top bar.
  - Remembers the popup position.
  - Includes an option to reset the popup position.
  - Adds a "Remind me in 30 minutes" button.
  - During the 30-minute reminder window, SLT keeps the popup and repeated
    warning sound quiet while still printing reminder messages in chat.
  - Chat reminder messages are printed every 5 minutes while postponed.
  - If the popup is left open, SLT can automatically postpone it after
    5 minutes.
  - Pressing ESC on the managed popup gives one emergency 10-minute
    postpone per UI session/reload.

• Disable AddOns protection
  - Adds an SLT confirmation before Blizzard's "Disable AddOns" button can
    disable all addons and reload the UI.
  - Pressing Yes still allows Blizzard's disable-all behavior to happen.
  - Pressing No cancels safely.
  - If the SLT confirmation is left open, it automatically cancels after
    1 minute.
  - This protection is focused only on Blizzard's many-errors popup.

• Focused Blizzard-popup handling
  - SLT only manages Blizzard's large-error warning popup.
  - Other Blizzard confirmation popups are left alone.
  - Item upgrades, limited-resource purchases, item deletion confirmations,
    and other important Blizzard popups should continue to behave normally.

• Timestamp-aware chat messages
  - SLT chat messages follow your Blizzard chat timestamp setting.
  - If timestamps are disabled, SLT prints normally.
  - Warning messages use red text.
  - Informational messages use normal white text.

• Persistent window state
  - Remember size (optional).
  - Remember position (optional).
  - Uses Blizzard's true default size when disabled.

• Easy way to close Lua errors
  - ESC will now close the normal Lua error window.

• Quick access settings
  - Cogwheel tab directly on the Lua error window.
  - Toggle settings open/close with a single click.

• Organized options
  - Options are grouped into clear sections:
    Suppression, Large-error management, Notifications, and Other settings.
  - Large-error management has separate controls for:
    "Disable AddOns" protection and large-error popup protection.
  - Reset buttons are protected by confirmation popups where appropriate.

• Simple-AddOns Discord link
  - The About tab includes a clickable Discord link.
  - Opens a small popup with a copyable invite URL.

• Slash commands
  /slt        - Shows this list of commands.
  /slt help   - Same as /slt.
  /slt lua    - Opens the Lua error window.
  /slt error  - Same as /slt lua.
  /slt options - Opens the options-window.
  /slt settings - Same as /slt options.
  /slt reset  - Resets the position of the options-window.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
--------------------------------------------------

SimpleLuaTweaker is intentionally conservative.

• No frame replacements.
• No heavy rewrites.
• No insecure hooks.
• No combat-taint risks.
• No visual restyling of Blizzard frames.

All additions (resize tab, settings cog, notification horn, status bar,
and large-error popup controls) are external and layered on top of the
default UI in a reversible, non-invasive way.

The large-error popup management is deliberately narrow:
- It targets Blizzard's "many errors" warning popup.
- It does not globally replace Blizzard popup handling.
- It does not try to disable culprit addons.
- It does not depend on BugSack, BugGrabber, or any other addon.
- It avoids interfering with unrelated protected Blizzard actions.

This approach dramatically reduces the chance of:
- Patch breakage.
- UI taint.
- Combat lockdown issues.
- Conflicts with other addons.

--------------------------------------------------
COMPATIBILITY
--------------------------------------------------

• Built using modern Blizzard APIs.
• Designed with Midnight (12.0) restrictions in mind.
• Compatible with other error-handling addons
  (BugSack, Swatter, etc.).

SimpleLuaTweaker does not require BugSack, BugGrabber, or any other
third-party addon.

If Blizzard changes the Lua error system, this addon is designed
to fail gracefully rather than catastrophically.

--------------------------------------------------
WHY THIS ADDON EXISTS
--------------------------------------------------

Because:
- Lua errors shouldn't break immersion mid-combat.
- Copying error text shouldn't be painful.
- Important hidden errors should not be easy to miss.
- Repeated error-warning popups should not cover boss mechanics forever.
- Accidentally disabling every addon should require confirmation.
- The default UI is good — it just needs a few careful tweaks.

SimpleLuaTweaker stays out of Blizzard's way and fixes only what's necessary.

--------------------------------------------------
INSTALLATION
--------------------------------------------------

1. Extract the SimpleLuaTweaker folder into:
   World of Warcraft/_retail_/Interface/AddOns/

2. Enable the addon in the character selection screen.

That's it.

--------------------------------------------------
SUPPORT / FEEDBACK
--------------------------------------------------

If you encounter issues or have suggestions:
- Report them on the addon's CurseForge page.
- Join the Simple-AddOns Discord from the About tab.
- Include the WoW version and a brief description.

Minimal addons deserve minimal bugs.
