How to Use

Instal: Like any other AddOn. Set up: Works 'as is'. For options enter '/trainer' in chat. You may need to enable "Out of Date" AddOns.

Works up to Patch 2.4.3. Getting ready for Vanilla and the inevitable TBC rerelease!

Details

Your World Map has icons for all the class and profession trainers in your city. All icons have tooltip text showing: the type of trainer, the shop/building name, the trainer name(s), the trainer title(s), any special notes. Your Minimap has identical functionality.

No more having to locate city guards and then only being shown one trainer at a time. Most often the guards will not even tell you the nearest riding trainer or will omit alternative trainers.

Some NPCs were only trainers in Vanilla. Others were introduced in TBC. This AddOn takes care of all of that.

Technical

In a few cities, when deliberately standing in very unlikely or difficult to reach places the Minimap icons will disappear. You will never normally notice this.

At the four terrace/promenade level entrances to the dome of the Terrace of Light in Shattrath and the dome's internal ramps (which nobody uses), the icons will momentarily displace. The rogue trainers in Darnassus were problematic too.

The main problem is that Blizzard do not allow AddOn authors to access your "z" coordinate, only your "x" and "y". But many cities have circular ramps and multiple layers or levels.

If You Like Trainer

Nobody can resist an adorable Raptor Hatchling pet or the magnificent Netherwing Drake and Long-Forgotten Hippogryph mounts. You'll of course need Dark Soil for The Tillers friendships and a Loose Pebble for your Dog! While fishing you'll wonder if This Scampi Happening? Oh, but it is! Why not Let Minnow about your fishing poles and you surely Cod Do Batter with your fishing achievements. While adventuring, map your way with X and Y coordinates and always go the Hard Yards measuring distance. Have some fun with Yarrr for pirate Tooltips or turn geek with Fibonacci. See all the hidden game asset IDs with Tip or Enumerate your frames. Achievement critters and NPCs receive some Rare Love and keep track of Sunrise & Sunset.

Cookies, Beer & Donations

It is all about the cookies and beer although, and don't let Gallywix know about this, a "thank you" in the comments section fuels my programming appetite and is very much appreciated. And then, you could cut straight to Donate because as Gallywix would say... "time is money, friend". 😊
