Oh my god, I think it's time to add a check to Grid on startup - aka: "You've installed Grid with 16 additional modules. Are you insane? [Yes] [No]"

As a feedback for your module, kunda: are the indicators "merged", or can you configure each of the 12? Because when I read pastamancers idea about three corner indicators, I had the following in mind (I'm displaying the bottom area of a unit)

(a)(b)(c) (f)(e)(d)

So basically you'd still bind a status to a corner indicator, but if more than one status wants to be displayed, the corner-most box (a, d) will have the highest priority (like now in the default Grid), but with up to two 'fallback' boxes (b,c,e,f), that display the status with the second highest priority and the one with the third highest priority.

Hmmm merged? The screenshot is just an example. The screenshot shows all GridIndicatorCornerPlus indicators to illustrate what indicators you get (and where they are) if you install it. In the screenshot I assigned a status to all of the 12 indicators (blue) (and the 4 standard Grid corner indicators (red)). Sure, you can use each of the 12 indicators individually...if you just need 1, just assign 1 status to 1 indicator, just like the standard ones, simple or?

And Maia, btw: I use even more indicators/statuses (sure, not all from wowace - many selfmade ones) ...but I am really scared to release it here because of ppl who just download all addons and don't know what to do with it...

Please remember:
Please use any Indicator or Status wisely!!!
Please only use this indicators if you NEED it!!!
Grid itself has all you need when you start using Grid.

Many indicators are great for statuses that displays OOC things...that's the main reason I use so many of it. And even in combat are many indicators/statuses very useful, you just need to know what is important to show and what is not if you are in combat.

as always:
If you don't like it, don't use it!
If you don't need it, don't use it!

I agree. We should really have an option "display status only out of combat" for each status. And as for my 'merged' concept, it would allow you to e.g. define the three hots you're interested in, and if a unit only has one hot, it'll always be in the corner (and not somewhere else simply because you assigned it to the e.g. third box of that corner). This would also reduce the configuration mess ("did I already assign a status to the 14th of the 16 box indicators?").

Fantastic addon, great for tracking the various Druid HoTs and Lifebloom stack size. What are your plans to migrate this to Grid2?

[Oddible]

Nevermind, got Grid2 working and figured out the Location feature, I see that this addon is no longer required for Grid2. Thanks for all the great raids GridIndicatorCornerPlus!
