Vuhdo / order of character in healing addon

[xandorz]

I intend to use Vuhdo (because I like how the bouquets and indicators work, makes it really easy to see CC, dispellable debuffs, debuffs that cause loss of character, track weakened soul and hots etc).

The issue I have with it is that it can sort by group + unitid or names but not manually sort it (grid can manually sort in any order and I think some other healing addon also does that).

Can I predict what unitid my characters will have so if I make druid first, then priest, then mage, then warlock1, then warlock2. Will they have unitid in that order?

Alternative would be to use alphabetic order of names, but I think I want my characters to not be in alphabetic order, something like: Druid = Betrayer, Priest = Archangel, Mage = Glitch, Warlock1 = Demonlord, Warlock2 = Doomcaller. Not totally sure yet, I like many of the names I got.

I could let it be in a weird order but that would feel weird and would have to remake macros and stuff.

Could change healing addon but I like Vuhdo and set it up a profile in the stress test.

What way do you think I should handle order of characters in the healing addon?

I've been using alphabetic for a while now. It's okay, even if it takes a little while to get used to having tank in different positions. It helps if you also have your slot order also alphabetic, so that the screens underneath the grid correspond to the same toons.

Ok, I might go with alphabetic order then also.

Dunno if you noticed: https://www.dual-boxing.com/threads/55814-Vuhdo-custom-tank-and-sort-team-member?p=420716&viewfull=1#post420716

But dynamicboxer has a callback/api to set team like it already does automatically for Jamba and EMA

I suppose I could also make it automatic (no code needed) for Vuhdo if there is interest ?

You can do it by type like tank heal mdps reps. And you can assign any flag to any toon.

TukUI and ElvUI both have the option to sort party/raid by name.
