Never miss a battleground/arena again, get fullscreen and soundplay on confirm!
With this addon you are free to browse the net or do other stuff while queued for battlegrounds.

After charging BGSwitch you can easily Alt-Tab out WoW, when your battleground is ready (or on optional events: AFK-timer, chat-messages/keywords, ReadyCheck, Flight finished) WoW gets the focus again, letting you enter the instance, clear AFK, answer messages...

Have a nice fight!

--N O T E S --


- run configuration ('/BGS CFG') @ first use, to ensure everything is setup right

- set keyboard-shortcuts via WoW-options-menu for easier handling

- ReSwitch can be used even if you are not queued



--C O M M A N D S--


'/BGS' switches screen-mode(full/win), charges for ONE Auto-Re-Switch, sets you AFK, ....

'/BGS OFF' stops unwanted soundplay and/ or resets everything to your default(after disconnect)

'/BGS CFG' calls configuration-window


P.S: Please leave comment or give bug-report
