Tracking mod

[Marcious]

I have looked at the tracking window and it's pretty tricky to modify. My question is would there be a way to create an addon for tracking that can filter out say the letter a(space) this would allow you to only pick up most named mobs not starting with the letter a. seeing as most mobs have the a prefix before the name a shadowy, an amorphous, etc if there was a way to wild card out the a and/or the an from tracking it would filter out most everything but the named mobs allowing you to not have to scroll through a page and a half of crap looking for that named your group wants to see is up. Just a thought dont know if it is possible or not.

There isn't any string processing code in EQ2 UI script language so unless SOE add that it isn't possible.

I've always tracked named mobs by clicking on the name header once or twice. By doing that it would put all the mobs with a and an in their name at the bottom of the list.
