Change Log:
--------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.3.7
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Added an in-game configuration which can be accessed via "/ilvl", "/eailt" or
"/eail". This eliminates the need to edit any of the lua files for configuration
and I eventually hope to expand on this section adding useful information
and more configuration options for further customization.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.3.7
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Resolved an issue with large number of decimal places being displayed for
your own gear.
* Added two variables to the top of the Core.lua file. EAILT_DEC and
EAILT_IGNORE_EMPTY. EAILT_DEC is the number of decimal places to
display and EAILT_IGNORE_EMPTY changes whether empty equipment
slots are ignore when determining ilvl. Blizzard does not care if you have
three pieces of gear on or sixteen, they will calculate item level as if
you had sixteen (seventeen in the case of dual wield) items equipped.
These two variables may become an in-game config later, but for now
they give a quick and dirty way for users to customize the addon just
a bit.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.3.6
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* More debugging and tweaking.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.3.5
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* More debugging and tweaking trying to get everything working inspite of
the limitation imposed by Blizzard.

Description:
--------------------
This is an addon that simply determines the average item level someone has equipped when you mouseover them and places it in the tooltip. Helpful for random heroics to quickly see how well geared the people around you are. This can be useful in determining if they have decent gear on or if possibly they have a better set for their other spec or they filled their bags with crafted PvP gear so they could get their severely undergeared toon into a heroic sooner.
Features:
Obtain information of equipped item level of players around you.
Share your blizzard item level (requires others to use addon).
Display item level information on guild mates in the guild roster (requires guildies to be manually scanned or running the addon)
Item levels displayed in tooltip in format "iLvl: ()"
Because blizzard has throttled inspections you may see unusual numbers at first that shortly change and reflect an accurate item level for players. This is not a bug in the addon and is beyond my control. The addon will also tend to disagree about equipped item level with blizzard as blizzard takes items equipped and divides by 16 or 17 depending on if you have a 1h or 2h weapon equipped. For low level characters this shows a subsequently lower ilvl than my addon will report as it ignores empty slots, tabards and shirts. This will cause my addon to tend to have a more stable number even when throttled by blizzard because it will only calculate item level based on the gear blizzard told it about. Doing it blizzards way and giving you numbers that correspond with their numbers would mean you might mouse over a person and blizzard give info on 3 of their items, but since it still has to be divided by at least 16 the item level returned might only be 100 when the person's true item level equipped is 300+. The bottom line is I can make the addon calculate the values either way, but the way that is used in the long...
