🗺️ Wolf Pack roadmap

Officers can now review drop lists straight from the dashboard, and any beta tester can drop back to the stable release in one click.

• 💰 Loot capture (officers) — When someone posts a drop list in guild or raid chat — comma OR pipe separated, however your Zeal is set — it collects on the dashboard’s Info tab. Check the items you want, and "Copy for /loot" gives you the exact paste, cleaned of chatter. Only officers see it. (One-click posting to bidding and DKP ticks are landing next.)
• ↩ Revert to stable — On a beta build and need the stable release back? There’s now a one-click "Revert to stable" in the tray, on the "you’re up to date" dialog, and next to the BETA badge on the dashboard. It downloads stable and installs on your next restart — no reinstall, and you can rejoin the beta any time.

Restarting Mimic no longer freezes your overlays for minutes — the parser now remembers what it already uploaded, and overlays reconnect to the engine on their own after any restart.

• No more re-upload marathon after a restart — The parser used to re-read and re-send every character’s gear and spellbook after every restart or update — minutes of frozen overlays on big multi-character setups. It now remembers what it already sent AND skips re-reading files that haven’t changed at all, so restarts come back in seconds.
• 🛟 Settings backups with one-click restore — Mimic now quietly keeps the last 10 versions of your eqclient.ini and zeal.ini for every EQ folder it knows. Patch day wiped your settings? A crash ate them? Open the dashboard’s Info tab → Settings backups and restore any version with one click (close EQ first — it’s safe, the current file is saved before every restore).
• Overlays find the engine by themselves — If the parser engine comes back on a different connection after a restart, every overlay now re-points itself automatically — no more CH chain stuck on "OVERLAY BLIND" or a blank Command Center until you restarted Mimic.

Raid-night fixes, live from the trenches: the blue "Reload to the live engine" banner stops crying wolf, the engine stays responsive under raid load, and the healing release is now stable for everyone.

• The banner stops crying wolf — The "can’t reach the parser engine" banner now only appears after ~10 seconds of real silence, explains that the engine usually recovers on its own, and clears itself the moment it does. It also stopped hammering a busy engine with page reloads — that was making things worse.
• Engine stays responsive during raids — All the overlays share one snapshot of the engine’s state instead of each demanding their own copy several times a second — the engine spends its time parsing your fight, not photocopying itself.
• The 1.9 healing release goes stable — Inbound heals on the Tank overlay, heal attribution on parse cards, the Divine Intervention tracker, and the Command Center healer-mana board — everything from the 1.9 beta line, now on the stable channel for the whole raid.

The Tank overlay now shows heals in flight — a countdown to each landing plus a projected-HP bar — and every heal (not just Complete Heal) now gets attributed on parse cards, even for tanks who aren’t running Mimic.

• Heals incoming, on the Tank overlay — Every heal being cast on the tank draws its own countdown bar to when it lands, colored to its healer, and a striped “ghost” segment on the HP bar shows where the tank’s health lands once it connects. Tanks and healers can see the save arriving. Complete Heals are left off this view — the CH-chain overlay owns those, and their volume would swamp it.
• Every heal attributed — Parse cards used to only credit Complete Heals from a witnessed landing. Now ANY heal landing anyone in the raid sees (Remedy, Superior Healing, …) is credited to the caster at the spell’s catalog value — so a CH chain (or any heal) on a tank who isn’t running Mimic still shows real numbers.
• Extended Target: target-of-target + declutter — Each mob row now shows 🎯 who it’s meleeing (usually the tank). And player/pet rows that used to clutter the list are hidden by default (👥 to show them), with a ✕ on any row to hide it and a “show all” to bring them back.

Parse cards finally show how much each healer actually healed — and the whole 1.8.1 beta round (finishing-blow fix, "Set up for me", /who class picker) went out to every Mimic as a stable update.

• Healers, attributed — EQ never tells anyone else how big your heal was — so Mimic now marries what the healer cast (and on whom) with what the recipient felt land. The 🩺 table shows each healer’s healed total, cast count, and top recipients; healers whose targets don’t run Mimic still show their casts. The useless "→ You" self rows are gone. Coverage grows with every Mimic install.
• Mimic 1.8.1 stable — The beta round is now the stable build: one-click "Set up for me" (turns on EQ logging + Zeal exports for you), the /who overlay class picker anyone can use, the CH-chain trust banner, HP-bar text you can read on any color, and the auto-arrange freeze fix.
• PoP spells marked — The missing-spells page tags Planes of Power spells with a PoP pill — they’re locked until Oct 1, so don’t farm for scrolls you can’t scribe yet.

After Sunday’s speed bumps we went through everything the raid depends on and made it tougher: uploads can’t back up behind Discord anymore, a stuck upload can’t jam the queue, and the CH Chain overlay now TELLS you if it ever goes blind.

• CH Chain trust banner — The chain overlay now watches its own data feed. If calls stop mid-fight it shows an amber “verify verbally” warning — and if the feed itself dies it flashes a red GO MANUAL banner and says so out loud, so clerics switch to the classic chain before a tank drops, not after.
• Uploads never wait on Discord — Your parser gets its “got it” immediately; posting parse cards and chat to Discord happens afterwards. Busy-night Discord slowdowns can’t back up your upload queue anymore.
• Stuck uploads get parked — If one bad upload keeps getting rejected, it moves to a slow lane instead of clogging everything behind it. “Drain now” retries parked items at full speed.
• Pre-raid health check — At 7:30pm on raid nights the bot checks Discord, the database, sign-in, and wolfpack.quest, and posts one green/red line — so problems surface at setup, not at the first pull.
• /raid in the menu — The live raid page now sits in the main menu next to Buffs, and the character detail panel follows you as you scroll.

Everything from the 1.7.4 beta round: color themes with a one-click picker, hotkeys you can rebind or disable, an all-overlays opacity slider, backgrounds that hug their cards, and no surprise rearranging — ever.

• One control center — The Overlays page now holds it all: theme picker (Wolf/Light/Vivid/Muted/High contrast), rebindable + disableable hotkeys for hide-all and backgrounds, auto-arrange on demand, and a single opacity slider that sets every overlay at once.
• Backgrounds done right — Solid backgrounds are rounded, follow the opacity slider, and extend exactly as far as the content — no more tall empty slabs.
• Your layout is sacred — Opening an overlay never moves anything, and auto-arrange never resizes — it only runs when you click it, and windows keep their exact size.

Everything from the 1.7.2 beta line graduates to stable: the PoP raid slideshow, auto-arrange, color themes, class-default setups, and a pile of overlay polish.

• PoP raid slideshow — A new overlay walks the raid through every PoP/PoTime encounter — callouts, boss stats, live drop tables, shared objective checkboxes, EQProgression diagrams and phase videos, plus a ⚑ button to report where Quarm differs from the guides.
• Auto-arrange + themes — Right-click any overlay: auto-arrange packs your overlays around your in-game windows (edges first, center kept clear), five color themes (dark/light/vivid/muted/high-contrast), solid backgrounds, and a grow-upward mode for bottom-parked overlays.
• Class-default setups — A brand-new install turns on the right overlays for your class (officer-crafted on /admin/overlays) and arranges them automatically. Existing setups are never touched.
• Roll tracker + crash reports — The Command Center tracks loot rolls (winners per item, re-rolls struck out), and an opt-in tray toggle shares Zeal crash metadata so crash clusters can be spotted guild-wide — the memory dump never leaves your machine.

Prefer brighter overlays? Right-click any overlay and cycle the theme — it changes every overlay at once.

• Five themes — Wolf (the classic dark), Light, Vivid (brighter + punchier colors), Muted (softer), and High contrast. Danger colors stay meaningful in every theme — red is still red in Light mode. Your pick persists and composes with the solid-background toggle and opacity slider.

Opt in to share Zeal crash summaries (never the memory dump) so we can spot crash patterns across the guild, and copy unknown names off the /who overlay in one click.

• Share crash reports (opt-in, default OFF) — A new tray toggle. When on, Mimic reads the small crash summaries Zeal already writes and uploads just the metadata — which DLL crashed, where, your GPU/driver — so officers can see “five of us crash at the same spot”. The memory dump never leaves your machine. Details on the privacy page.
• /who copy button — Rows with no known class/level get a ⧉ button that copies the name — paste it into the Quarm Discord search to check their public posts.

The right-click overlay menu no longer clips or lingers, auto-arrange keeps the middle of your screen clear, and overlays can grow upward.

• Grow upward — Any overlay can now anchor its BOTTOM edge (right-click → ⬆ Grow upward) — perfect for Extended Target parked at the bottom of the screen: the list grows up instead of running off-screen.
• Edge-first arranging — Auto-arrange now treats the middle of your screen as the play area — overlays line the outside (right side first, then top/bottom, then left) and only use the center if there is truly nowhere else.

Officers craft a default overlay set per class; a brand-new Mimic install turns on the right overlays for your toon and arranges them around your in-game windows automatically.

• Class default sets — On /admin/overlays, officers pick which overlays each class starts with — clerics get the CH chain and Buff queue, warriors get the Tank HUD and Command Center, and so on. New installs pick their set up within a couple of minutes of logging in.
• First-boot arrangement — A fresh install no longer leaves overlays stacked in default spots — the first time it knows your class (or right after onboarding), it packs everything into the free space around your actual EQ windows.
• Your setup is safe — This only ever touches brand-new installs. If you have ever turned an overlay on yourself, saved a per-character layout, or placed things where you like them, nothing changes — updates and set edits never rearrange you.

A new overlay walks the raid through every Planes of Power + Plane of Time encounter — callouts, boss stats, diagrams, and objective checkboxes the whole raid shares.

• Encounter slideshow — Flip through 34 encounters from Grummus to Quarm (Tier 1–4 plus PoTime phase by phase). Each slide has the raid-leader callouts, boss HP/hits/slow/rampage, its named abilities, and the live drop table.
• Shared objectives — Every encounter has objective checkboxes — “doors held”, “50% dispel dodged” — that are raid-wide: when the puller checks one, everyone’s overlay ticks it and shows who did. Officers can reset the board between attempts.
• Diagrams & videos — Strategy diagrams load straight from EQProgression (credited, and never re-hosted by us), and each PoTime phase links its strategy video — one click opens it in your browser.
• Flag an anomaly — Quarm not matching the guide? Hit ⚑, type what you saw, and it lands in the officers’ QOL thread with the guide numbers attached for comparison.
• Ultrawide layout — A framed multi-panel mode (🖥) spreads callouts, target info, and objectives side-by-side for ultrawide monitors instead of one tall column.

Right-click any overlay → Auto-arrange: Mimic reads your in-game window layout and packs the visible overlays into the free space.

• Auto-arrange — Mimic reads the window positions EQ itself saves (your UI files — never modified), maps them onto your screen, and slots the visible overlays into the gaps — right edge first, never on top of your game windows or each other. Overlays that don’t fit shrink through the size presets until they do. There’s also an “arrange when overlays open” mode: turning an overlay on slides the others out of its way.
• Solid backgrounds — Every overlay can now have an opaque dark plate behind it for readability over bright zones — toggle one overlay from its right-click menu, or ALL of them at once with Ctrl+Shift+B.

Every /random in the zone is tracked and grouped by roll range — with the winners named, straight off your loot links.

• Rolls, grouped and won — Rolls with the same range (0–333, 0–555, …) group into a set, EQ Log Parser-style. Link loot in raid chat as “Item Name (3)333 | …” and the set picks up its item name — the (3) means the top three rolls each win one. The Command Center shows each set as “333 (Item name) — winner names”; the Mimic dashboard has the full table with every roll expandable.
• Fair by default — Only each player’s FIRST roll counts — re-rolls are listed struck through and can never win. Multi-boxers hearing the same roll on two logs count once.

The roster now counts a PERSON’s raid attendance across all their characters — plus an Alt Nights view.

• Attendance out of possible — Each roster row is a person: the percentage is raids attended on ANY of their characters out of all possible ticks, with the tick count right beside it. Someone who splits time across three characters finally shows their true 100% instead of three fragments.
• Alts fold under the main — Alts under 50% of a person’s usage tuck into an expandable “+N alts” line under the main — open it to see each alt’s ticks and usage share. An alt the person mostly plays stays visible.
• Alt Nights view — A toggle recomputes the whole page over just the alt-night raids (Alt Extravaganza / Alt Bonanza / VT + Alt Fun), so you can see who shows up for alt nights specifically.

Your Gear page no longer shows AAs you can’t have, and the faction page stops claiming you’re at max and min at the same time.

• Conned mobs show their faction — The faction page’s consider table now resolves each mob to its faction (with a PQDI link) — the lookup was reading an empty mirror table, so the column never appeared.

The /raid Mana list and Twitch Queue now fill from the “% mana” macros healers already call out — not just from casters running Mimic.

• Two mana sources, merged — Casters on Mimic report exact mana straight off their client (Zeal pipe). Everyone else is covered by their “% mana” raid-chat macros — if any one Mimic user hears the call-out, it lands on the board under the caller’s name. Readings persist through the whole fight (10-minute window), freshest source wins.

Quarm’s PoP-beta reward buffs (Beta Virtue, Beta VoG, …) now rank above the era tops instead of reading as missing buffs.

• Beta buffs recognized — Someone carrying Beta Virtue used to show empty HP slots on /raid — the queue would tell clerics to land Ancient Aego right over the strictly better buff. Beta Virtue now fills the Aego slots (and Beta VoG counts as top haste with its attack bonus), so beta-buffed raiders read as fully covered.

The /raid page now shows everyone’s mana at a glance and a Twitch Queue telling enchanters exactly who to feed next.

• Mana at a glance — A new Mana list in the /raid sidebar (under “Classes in raid”) shows every caster’s current mana — pulled straight from their own client via Mimic — sorted highest first, so you can see who still has gas.
• Twitch Queue — A prioritized list of who to twitch mana to next: lowest mana up top, Wizards and Enchanters first, then Clerics, then everyone else. No more guessing who’s about to go OOM.

The Tank overlay shows a non-Mimic tank’s exact HP near-live, and the Command Center now counts down defensives — active AND recharge.

• Exact tank HP, fast — When someone in the tank’s group runs /pipeverbose, the Tank overlay shows the tank’s real HP numbers (“4211 / 4348”), not just a percent — and it now refreshes about every 3 seconds instead of every 15-20.
• Defensive recharge timers — The Command Center shows a discipline’s remaining ACTIVE time counting down, then flips to “DOWN · m:ss” counting down the recharge until it’s usable again — so you always know when the next Defensive is ready.

The Tank overlay can now show the main tank’s HP even when the tank isn’t running Mimic — as long as someone in their group is.

• Borrowed HP from a groupmate — When the main tank isn’t on Mimic and you aren’t targeting or grouped with them, the Tank overlay used to just say “HP not visible.” Now it uses the tank’s HP as seen by any Mimic-running groupmate’s Zeal window — the same cross-client HP the /raid grid already shows — and it lights up on your Tank bar within a couple seconds. No Mimic update needed; your current agent picks it up on its own.

A rare pile-up in Mimic’s upload backlog could balloon to multiple GB and freeze every overlay mid-raid. It now bounds itself and cleans up after itself.

• Self-healing upload backlog — If the connection to the bot stalls during a raid, Mimic’s outbound queue used to grow without limit (one player’s hit 2.6 GB) and lock up the app so the DPS/Tank overlays stopped updating. The backlog is now capped by size, throwaway data (live casts, roster snapshots) is dropped first, and stale leftover files are swept on startup — a bloated folder shrinks itself the next time Mimic launches.

Warrior Defensive Discipline (and Weapon Shield) now show up on the Command Center’s defensives list, not just Divine Aura.

• Defensives, straight from the log — The Command Center reads Defensive Discipline directly off the combat log (“Soandso assumes a defensive fighting style”), so it lights up for any tank who pops it — no announce macro required — and clears when it fades. It also understands the chat call-outs tanks already use (“Defensive is activated”, “1 min on defensive”, “Weapon Shield activated for the next 15s!”), and each row is labeled with which cooldown it is.

A new account-wide inventory on /me: the total count of every item across all your characters, and exactly who’s holding it.

• Account inventory (/me → 🎒) — One list of every item across all your characters, with a running total and the per-character breakdown — “3 total: Bowvendor ×2 (shared bank), Manamana ×1 (bags)”. Items sitting in your shared bank are tagged, since any of your characters can pull them.
• Filters + include/exclude — Filter by Weapon / Armor / Tradeskill / No-Drop / Spell, search by name, and toggle which characters or which places (equipped / bags / bank / shared bank) to count — totals recompute live. It’s private to you, built from your /outputfile inventory uploads.

Officers can now file the level for PoP (and any un-scribed) spells so the missing-spells page stops dumping them all under “Level unknown.”

• Officer spell-level editor — The missing-spells page groups by level, but a spell nobody has scribed yet (every PoP 61-65 spell, until the October unlock) has no level to group by — the game data mirror doesn’t carry class levels. Officers now get a little “type a level” box next to each unknown-level spell; set it once and it applies guild-wide. The instant a real druid scribes the spell and uploads their book, their actual level takes over automatically.

Your spellbook flows to the site automatically, so the missing-spells page stays current on its own.

• Automatic spellbook ingest — Run /outputfile spellbook in game and Mimic uploads it within a few minutes — same as your Quarmy gear and inventory. No more copy-pasting into the site. The manual paste stays as a fallback for standalone/older setups, and it honors your inventory opt-out.

Your character’s missing-spell list now includes the ones you have to go get, not just what a vendor sells.

• Every missing spell, not just buyable — The missing-spells page now lists all of a class’s spells you haven’t scribed — quest, drop, and planar spells (Divine Intervention, Mark of Karn, …) included. Each is tagged 🛒 buyable or ⚔ go-get, and the “find ↗” link opens PQDI so you can see exactly where a non-vendor spell drops.

The road to Quarm gets a map, and the whole site gets more flexible.

• PoP Flags (Preview) — A live chart of the guild’s Planes of Power flagging — who can enter each zone today, and a planner that ranks what to raid next by how many people each kill pushes forward.
• Raid Roster — Your typical raiders, grouped by role and class, sorted by 60-day attendance. Notable alts are called out in italics under their class.
• Expandable time windows — Leaderboards, parses, and PvP now let you expand or contract the window — day, week, 30/60/90 days, the whole expansion, or lifetime.
• Sharper link previews — Sharing any page link in Discord now unfurls with that page’s own description instead of the generic site blurb.

Mimic now surfaces every scrap of live game data Zeal exposes.

• Zeal Pipe explorer — A new Info-tab panel that decodes everything the Zeal pipe carries — your stats, buffs, group, spell gems, position — each section expandable. Fully documented, so nothing is guesswork anymore.
• Real HP on the tank overlay — The tank overlay’s raw HP numbers used to be nonsense; now they read your actual current/max HP, correct even at full health.
• Raid-wide HP via /pipeverbose — Turning on /pipeverbose in-game streams exact HP and zone for the whole raid, not just percentages.

Officers can reach every Mimic at once, and the whole stack got faster.

• Mimic Mail — Officers publish a notice on the site and every running Mimic shows a pulsing mail icon within ~90 seconds — mark it critical and the bot also posts it to Discord. Works on every future Mimic version with no extra plumbing.
• “✓ cured” button — When nobody near a cursed player runs Mimic, anyone can now clear a stuck cure-need from the whole raid’s queue with one click.
• Efficiency pass — Overlays skip repainting unchanged frames, the buff queue computes once for the whole raid instead of once per person (~20× less database traffic), and agent log parsing got cheap pre-filters across the board.
