It is not related to a problem.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to have an option to somehow visually highlight whether given NPC with a nameplate has its pockets picked + if it even has pockets. I do understand that this isn't really a use-case that most users of the addon would need, so I would like to frame this as a question: If this is technically feasible (i.e. there is an API method from Blizzard that can be called to tell you whether given NPC has pockets, and a method to tell whether they are empty), where would I go in the addon to make my changes? I am thinking of displaying green healthbar for targets with pockets and yellow for those that are already pickpocketed.
The idea is that my pickpocket farm in deepholm would go much more smoothly if I knew which targets have had their pockets refilled/died and were replaced.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I have considered using the "NPC spawn timer" addon to simply tell me how long has the NPC been up, but it is not as user experience friendly as what I am proposing above. And yes, I do realize that maybe there's no interest to have this in the addon, and I would be super greatful for just being nudged in the correct way to self-serve this.
Thank you for your time!
Hi @dusekdan
You could try https://github.com/SebHex/pick-pocket
I have not used it but from what I see it registers when you pickpocket a mob and auto loots. Then starts a (7 min) counter for that mob.
