| 13:14.07 | Ballmer_Peak | Good morning Gods of the UI. Since WoW is down, someone mind helping me figure out how to get my title text to anchor to my frame? |
| 13:14.56 | Ballmer_Peak | I'll ready a paste for it. |
| 13:20.14 | Ballmer_Peak | pastebin.com/8TUDTvUM |
| 13:23.02 | haste | Ballmer_Peak: is PPtitle actually a global? |
| 13:23.34 | Ballmer_Peak | none of the variables are globals, they are all locals. |
| 13:24.23 | Ballmer_Peak | local PPProfit = CreateFrame("Frame","PPPM", UIParent, "PPPMainWindow"); |
| 13:24.29 | haste | ah wait, that's the name of the fontstring, lawl |
| 13:27.11 | Ballmer_Peak | I guess I should use a line like... PPProfit.title:SetPoint("LEFT", PPProfit, "TOP", 0, 0); to anchor it? |
| 13:27.16 | haste | I'm not seeing anything obvious |
| 13:27.23 | haste | yes |
| 13:27.48 | haste | I thought your question was why the parent for the frame was UIParent :P |
| 13:28.02 | haste | s/frame/font string/ |
| 13:28.55 | Ballmer_Peak | well, when the text renders, it's attached to the side of the ParentUI frame, because I can move the main window around, and it just stays where it is. |
| 13:29.29 | Stanzilla | UIParent is a thing |
| 13:30.06 | haste | just anchor it to your own frame after you've created it |
| 13:30.23 | Ballmer_Peak | the set point is the lua side of anchor? |
| 13:30.33 | nebula | stop using xml |
| 13:31.03 | haste | <PROTECTED> |
| 13:31.27 | haste | Yes, :SetPoint() does the same as Anchors in XML |
| 13:31.30 | Ballmer_Peak | I had to use xml, I needed to make a frame that was virtual, that I could use for my addon, since I couldn't find anything in the wow templates to do it. |
| 13:31.46 | nebula | you don't need you use xml for anything but secure templates |
| 13:31.48 | haste | only XML templates need to be virtual afaik |
| 13:31.56 | nebula | you can make a factory function to generate new frames in lua |
| 13:31.59 | Ballmer_Peak | just like the smallmoneyframetemplate, I had to copy and gut it to make it work for me. |
| 13:32.41 | nebula | xml is just extra work and makes debuging a pain in the ass |

| 13:34.29 | nebula | not to be brusk, but xml is a trap new addon devs often fall for |

| 13:35.49 | nevcairiel | if you have a problem and think to yourself i'll use xml to solve it, then now you have two problems |
| 13:36.22 | nevcairiel | xml in addon dev is absolutely not mandatory, you can use 99% of everything without one line of xml |
| 13:36.37 | nevcairiel | and the 1% you do need xml for i can promise you, you didnt do =p |

| 13:37.17 | Stanzilla | why do you always leave out the https |
| 13:37.39 | Ballmer_Peak | because I'm not copy pasting, I'm typing data from one computer to the other. |
| 13:37.49 | Stanzilla | ?_? |
| 13:37.55 | Ballmer_Peak | I'm developing it on my windows box, and this is my linux box. |
| 13:38.20 | Ballmer_Peak | http://pastebin.com/60ZV2MJH |
| 13:38.26 | Ballmer_Peak | there, pasted from here. |

| 13:38.54 | Ballmer_Peak | https://postimg.org/image/tc4ajigdf/ |
| 13:39.31 | Ballmer_Peak | is what the addon looked like using default template, the new addon look is different as far as box/border. |
| 13:41.07 | Ballmer_Peak | I had to rip out all the script calls in the moneyframe template file, to make it work like I wanted it to, I tried doing it via lua, I disabled all the events, I disabled all the script stuff in lua, and it was so pervasive, I had to manually edit the xml and replace all the script sections with <Scripts/> |
| 13:41.47 | haste | You could have just created the textures in Lua and not inherited it from anything |
| 13:41.56 | haste | textures and font strings that is |
| 13:43.04 | Ballmer_Peak | well, I started learning lua last monday, so I'd say this is pretty good progress. |
| 13:46.44 | haste | Then I'd recommend not investing much time in XML, other than being able to map it to Lua |
| 13:48.30 | Ballmer_Peak | yes, which is why the xml is as barebones as I needed it. |
| 13:48.54 | haste | The goal is to do nothing in XML :D |
| 13:49.29 | Ballmer_Peak | well, at some point in the future, when I know what I'm doing in lua, I'll probably revisit this addon and modify it. |
| 13:53.19 | nebula | a great way to learn about building a gui is to convert all that xml to lua :p |
| 13:53.59 | haste | (and it would be surprisingly little Lua as well) |
| 13:54.23 | foxlit | It would be surprisingly little xml too if you knew what you were doing. |
| 13:54.56 | Ballmer_Peak | my title text still isn't attached to the frame :| |
| 13:55.12 | haste | did you SetPoint it? |
| 13:55.19 | Ballmer_Peak | yes |
| 13:56.36 | foxlit | But "Have you tried not being new to everything?" hardly counts as instructive advice. |
| 13:56.45 | haste | PPProfit.title:SetPoint("LEFT", PPProfit.TitleBg, "LEFT", 5, 0); -- probably messes it up for your |
| 13:56.59 | Ballmer_Peak | yep, I found that line and commented it out. |
| 13:57.15 | Ballmer_Peak | now it is attached to the frame, just not an expected way. |
| 13:57.27 | Ballmer_Peak | I'll monkey with the numbers. |
| 13:57.56 | haste | Ballmer_Peak: http://wow.gamepedia.com/API_Region_SetPoint is a helpful read about how it anchors |
| 14:00.22 | Ballmer_Peak | aye, ty for the link haste! |

| 14:31.10 | Ballmer_Peak | I see that I don't actually want to use ADDON |
| 14:31.19 | Ballmer_Peak | because it's the wrong data for my parent frame. |
| 14:32.48 | haste | actually, it isn't a syntax error, I'm just being fooled by line-breaks on IRC |
| 14:32.53 | haste | but it isn't what you want to do :D |
| 14:32.57 | haste | as you're just building a string |
| 14:33.53 | Gnarfoz | do you want "b" to be a string like this: $ADDON.$DESIbutton = CreateFrame("Button," $name, $ADDON, "PPPMoneyFrame") |
| 14:34.20 | Gnarfoz | (I doubt you do) |
| 14:35.04 | Ballmer_Peak | not a string, I need it to actually make a button widget in the parent frame. |

| 14:36.28 | Ballmer_Peak | something about unexpected symbol near $ |
| 14:36.28 | Gnarfoz | well, that's also a syntax error, just of a different kind |

| 14:37.08 | Gnarfoz | what is "desi"? |
| 14:37.11 | Ballmer_Peak | yeah, I gathered, so why would the other $vars work? |
| 14:37.17 | Ballmer_Peak | Designation, shortened. |
| 14:37.24 | Gnarfoz | sorry, that was just an example to try and figure out what you wanted to achieve |
| 14:37.47 | Ballmer_Peak | currently the addon has three button objects, created when the frame is made. |
| 14:38.37 | Ballmer_Peak | PPProfit. pick, loot, total..'button' respectively |
| 14:39.41 | Ballmer_Peak | so that's the designation, but I use the names to populate their data. |
| 14:42.25 | Ballmer_Peak | I'm not going to have a button to close the addon, I'm going to put in a minimize/max button, so the user can minimize it to just the title bar with a total, or expand it out to see more detail. so I need the buttons to be generated when needed, and not always there. |
| 14:43.35 | Ballmer_Peak | So I'm trying to figure out how to do that. |

| 15:10.28 | Ballmer_Peak | hmm, what's a wildcard search? *? |
| 15:10.46 | Gnarfoz | depending on the program, either that, or .* |
| 15:12.06 | Gnarfoz | (I maintain my recommendation of looking at simpler addons, but on the other hand, I don't know any simple ones that would clearly show how to do what you're trying to achieve. I know, not very helpful. :D) |
| 15:12.48 | Ballmer_Peak | yeah, well, grepWin just hit a dead end. function called from another function, that isn't called from anything. |
| 15:13.12 | Ballmer_Peak | as far as simpler addons... |
| 15:13.19 | Gnarfoz | it might be called because of an event |
| 15:13.23 | Ballmer_Peak | I'd have to say my addon in it's current iteration is pretty simple. |
| 15:14.02 | Ballmer_Peak | there's no event registration, except what happens in functions. |
| 15:14.08 | Gnarfoz | heh, but you're not going to learn much by looking at your own stuff when you're lost (although I know there's people in here who would say that that's precisely where you can learn most) |
| 15:14.27 | Gnarfoz | hm? in Bagnon? I'm certain it uses events.^^ |
| 15:14.35 | Gnarfoz | BAG_UPDATE and such |
| 15:15.06 | Thunder_Child | fyi it's also on github and that has a decent repo search function https://github.com/tullamods/Bagnon |
| 15:15.06 | Gnarfoz | (it might, terribly, also just use OnUpdate, which gets run for each frame the game renders) |
| 15:15.26 | LexSfX | Ballmer_Peak: as for "wildcard search", grepwin uses regular expressions, so you can construct the exact text pattern you want it to match. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression |
| 15:16.15 | LexSfX | sorry, bad place to learn about regexps... sec. http://www.regular-expressions.info/quickstart.html |

| 15:23.53 | Simca | finally |
| 15:24.23 | znf | oh, I wanted to check the challenger's cache |
| 15:24.29 | znf | then I remembered I havent' done a m+ last week |
| 15:27.03 | znf | and now I remembered I'm on EU |
| 15:29.43 | Ballmer_Peak | ok, any volunteers to translate this bit? local f = self:Bind(stuff) |
| 15:30.06 | Ballmer_Peak | self tosses an error about global self = 'nil |
| 15:30.13 | VIad | calls method Bind on the self object and passes stuff to it, and assigns f to whatever the method returned :d |
| 15:30.41 | VIad | self is a special arg, like this in object oriented programming |
| 15:30.52 | Ballmer_Peak | so I could do just f = Bind(stuff) |
| 15:31.52 | VIad | if you want to understand what self is I recommend reading at these samples http://lua-users.org/wiki/ObjectOrientationTutorial |
| 15:32.04 | Ballmer_Peak | thank you VIad |
| 15:32.49 | VIad | local t = { v = 0, add = function(self, i) self.v = self.v + i end } -- t:add(10) -- t.v is now 10 |
| 15:33.07 | VIad | t:add(10) and t.add(t, 10) is the same note the . and : |
| 15:33.39 | Gnarfoz | replace "object" with "table" in Lua terms |
| 15:33.45 | VIad | yeah |
| 15:33.59 | VIad | but strictly speaking objects are just entities in memory right? |
| 15:34.07 | VIad | tables, strings, numbers |
| 15:34.33 | Ballmer_Peak | I did see something on wowprogramming that talked about creating an object in lua. |
| 15:34.46 | VIad | you only have tables |
| 15:34.53 | VIad | and you can be creative using them and metatables :p |
| 15:35.00 | Gnarfoz | that's probably a similar example as the one viad just linked |
| 15:36.04 | VIad | often coding simpler and smarter is more efficient than making bloated addons with a lot of weird metatable behavior |
| 15:36.04 | VIad | I mean I've played with some myself, but usually not needed for simpler things |
| 15:36.21 | VIad | I'd imagine Bagnon uses something that emulates objects :p |
| 15:37.32 | LexSfX | 07:33:58 <VIad> but strictly speaking objects are just entities in memory right? |
| 15:37.46 | LexSfX | more strictly speaking, "object" is an abstract term which can be implemented by entities in memory |

| 15:46.30 | nevcairiel | you only need 1 |
| 15:46.33 | nevcairiel | but we have hundreds |
| 15:46.35 | nevcairiel | so your point? |
| 15:46.44 | VIad | I was expecting the underwater mounts to be faster |
| 15:46.54 | VIad | maybe not vashjir fast :p |
| 15:47.06 | VIad | but maybe a bit faster than 100% speed like runspeed |

| 15:50.12 | VIad | really? hmm |
| 15:50.15 | VIad | might need to go look |
| 15:50.45 | nevcairiel | depends on your realm and your definiton of cheap |
| 15:50.55 | VIad | 1k gold per bait = cheap |
| 15:51.09 | Simca | it's cheaper than that for almost all of them |
| 15:51.18 | VIad | need 18 baits :p |
| 15:51.23 | Simca | the ones that give tons of fish are like 3k here, but the rest are like 200g or less |

| 16:12.12 | LexSfX | TheDanW: what should i do with UNIT_HEALTH events that fire with nil unitId? is that supposed to imply a particular unit, or should i ignore such events? |
| 16:12.42 | LexSfX | i've seen UNIT_HEALTH fire with "player" now, so i know it's not supposed to imply that |

| 16:16.41 | LexSfX | nevcairiel: good advice. i thought it might have been a change intended to reduce UNIT_HEALTH event data transmission or something, and that now having no unitId implied something |
| 16:16.44 | LexSfX | and i couldn't find what it was |
| 16:16.53 | LexSfX | how are you sure it's a bug, btw? |
| 16:16.57 | LexSfX | there are tons of these events |
| 16:17.16 | LexSfX | it happened 108 times in just 1 world boss pull |
| 16:18.01 | nevcairiel | a unit event that doesnt tell you which unit its for? how is that not a bug? :) |
| 16:18.21 | LexSfX | it could not be a bug by implying a unit, and that being documented somewhere that i couldn't find |

| 16:43.28 | Ballmer_Peak | they don't have arrays. |

| 16:45.33 | Ballmer_Peak | if you needed to store some bit of correlative data, you'd stick the first bit in at index 0, and then the second bit in at first+stride, etc... |

| 16:59.32 | Ballmer_Peak | how do I remove a frame? |
| 16:59.36 | Ballmer_Peak | via lua |
| 17:02.22 | Ketho | you dont |
| 17:02.57 | Ballmer_Peak | ok, so my not being able to find the command is because it's not there. |
| 17:03.59 | *** join/#wowuidev Shockah (~Shockah@dwd42.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl) |
| 17:04.06 | Gnarfoz | you can remove all references to it like frame=nil, but it's not going to get you anything. |
| 17:05.13 | Ballmer_Peak | because the script already ran and made it. |
| 17:05.31 | Gnarfoz | (because creating lots and lots of frames can be troublesome, perfomance-wise, some addons implement "frame pools" where they CreateFrame a bunch of times and then recycle those forever, stripping them of their various properties and re-using them afterward. advanced stuff, though) |
| 17:06.30 | Ballmer_Peak | so, I made my button frames, and I'm just hiding them right after they are made. |
| 17:06.46 | Ballmer_Peak | and I'll show them if there's data to be shown, and the addon is in the right configuration. |
| 17:07.47 | znf | Gnarfoz, my question was more like, "why doesn't it show up on the world map?" |
| 17:07.52 | znf | I thought they fixed those kind of bugs in 7.1 |
| 17:12.56 | Gnarfoz | if it was possible to fix all bugs, we'd be living in a better world |
| 17:15.38 | Ballmer_Peak | query: for i=0, 3, 6 do stuff end would iterate through i=0, 3 and 6 before stopping right? |
| 17:16.11 | znf | Gnarfoz, you'd think they would have fixed suramar, you know... |
| 17:25.11 | TheDanW | LexSfX, nevcairiel: i believe there was a pending hotfix for the nil unit on health events, i'll check on it today |
| 17:32.12 | LexSfX | TheDanW: thanks :) |

| 18:31.11 | Gnarfoz | that's how it works, Ballmer_Peak |
| 18:31.45 | Gnarfoz | if talking to yourself doesn't show the problem, talk to someone else... often times the problem becomes clear before the other party even has a chance to answer ^^ |
| 18:32.05 | Ballmer_Peak | I talk to myself enough to actively avoid the whitecoats.. |
| 18:32.42 | Ballmer_Peak | not enough to be very successful on twitch though, apparently there's a balance there. I haven't found it yet. |
| 18:37.07 | Gnarfoz | I wish there were better (or any) diagnostics to figure out what's making my loading screens take so long |
| 18:37.49 | Ballmer_Peak | addons |
| 18:38.18 | Ballmer_Peak | I shut down auctioneer on this toon and my loading screen time decreased dramatically |
| 18:38.53 | Gnarfoz | well, clearly addons, but which one. :P that has been a hard problem to accurately determine for 12 years |
| 18:39.50 | Ballmer_Peak | grab a stop watch, select none, login. |
| 18:40.13 | Ballmer_Peak | take your baseline time, and repeat it a few times if you want a good median. |
| 18:40.35 | Ballmer_Peak | select a big addon, reload your ui, and time it. |
| 18:40.38 | Gnarfoz | I obviously know how to do it manually. |
| 18:40.56 | Gnarfoz | that gets rather tedious with 231 folders in the addon folder |
| 18:40.57 | Gnarfoz | :D |
| 18:41.00 | Ballmer_Peak | well, if the addons are loaded alphabetically by folder name. |
| 18:41.07 | Gnarfoz | no real guarantee of that |
| 18:41.27 | znf | get a rubber duck |
| 18:41.30 | Ballmer_Peak | so short of doing it manually, you've got no other recourse. |
| 18:41.37 | Gnarfoz | hence my wish |
| 18:41.41 | Ballmer_Peak | if you could say this addon has to load first, |
| 18:42.15 | znf | except shit gets cached |
| 18:42.18 | Gnarfoz | I could modify each and every addon's TOC file to create some bizarre dependency christmas tree |
| 18:42.21 | znf | either by the disk |
| 18:42.29 | znf | or os |
| 18:42.30 | znf | or whatever |
| 18:42.31 | Ballmer_Peak | but I reckon things may load alphabetically, so try making an addon called AAA and one called ZZZ and have them both print their loaded times to chat. |
| 18:43.12 | Ballmer_Peak | so blizz loads all their crap, then the first user addon loads, and you get a time stamp for that being done, and the second one loads at the end, and you've got your timer. |
| 18:43.15 | Gnarfoz | znf: I doubt that's relevant, SSD should be more than fast enough either way. it's either a bunch of "fat" addons or something's doing more than it should on load. and/or the addon loading process in general is slow |
| 18:43.56 | Ballmer_Peak | or, you could just add a print(tostring(time()) in every addon main lua file. |
| 18:44.11 | Gnarfoz | Ballmer_Peak: again, no guarantee of that, and dependencies can mess up the load order on top of that. there's been attempts to do it, like WarmUp, but most of those were terribly inaccurate. :D |
| 18:44.12 | Ballmer_Peak | add some debug info, and then you can see which ones take a long time to load. |
| 18:44.21 | Gnarfoz | I bet turning TradeSkillMaster off would shave half the time off |
| 18:45.00 | znf | Gnarfoz, auctionator, if you have it |
| 18:45.11 | Gnarfoz | why would I run both that and TSM |
| 18:45.12 | Gnarfoz | :D |
| 18:45.22 | znf | I have TSM and Auctionator |
| 18:45.32 | znf | mostly because I never bothered figuring out how to post auctions with tsm |
| 18:45.44 | Gnarfoz | do you enjoy your little breaks while staring at loading screens? :D |
| 18:46.11 | znf | I don't keep auctionator's database |
| 18:46.24 | Gnarfoz | shiiiet, TSM needs a cleanup thing |
| 18:47.42 | znf | wtf, this antiqued piece of shit switch has a firmware update |
| 18:47.45 | znf | from 2016! |
| 18:47.54 | Gnarfoz | you won the lottery |

| 18:48.39 | Gnarfoz | you mean, like, holy fuck, how does HP have such terrible host names, that even they themselves use the wrong certificates? |
| 18:48.47 | Ballmer_Peak | Gnarfoz what about looking at the addons toc file, and adding in two lua scripts, one at the top of the file, and one at the bottom, give them a global to play with, the first gets a timestamp, the second one gets a timestamp, do some math, and you should have your addon load time. |
| 18:49.16 | znf | Gnarfoz, I'm way over that :D |
| 18:49.52 | Gnarfoz | well, it's a ProCurve 1810G-24, do you know how many of those are out there? |
| 18:49.59 | Gnarfoz | of course it's still being supported ;) |
| 18:51.05 | Gnarfoz | if I was allowed, I'd send you a stack of 20 or so |
| 18:51.14 | znf | no, thanks |
| 18:51.21 | znf | let's see if I can update this without breaking it |
| 18:51.37 | znf | I mean, what can I possibly break, just access to the communications rack and all the management interfaces |
| 18:51.39 | znf | just internal things |

| 19:09.00 | Ballmer_Peak | if (IsVisible("PickedP")) then SetPoint place stuff. Whether I use IsVisible() or IsShown, or call the frame by PPProfit.pickbutton I get attempt to call global 'IsVisible' a nil value. |
| 19:10.09 | Gnarfoz | it's not a global API function, it's a widget specific thing |
| 19:10.18 | Gnarfoz | i.e. PickedP:IsVisible() is what you want to do |
| 19:10.55 | Gnarfoz | (or PPProfit.pickbutton:IsShown() or whatever) |

| 19:14.00 | Ballmer_Peak | now my addon shows loot data, and total, if there's no pick data |

| 19:15.42 | Ballmer_Peak | I have a what would you do question now. |
| 19:16.16 | Ballmer_Peak | I just realized, that I could use these frames I've made, to not only just show overall picked data, and overall loot data. |
| 19:16.29 | Ballmer_Peak | it takes cash, and the vendor value of items and adds it to cash. |
| 19:17.11 | Ballmer_Peak | But would you add in a secondary display, like looted, and then sub areas for cash/items |
| 19:17.21 | Ballmer_Peak | naw |

| 19:18.09 | Ballmer_Peak | I was already planning on letting the user click on the loot/pick/total buttons and getting a detailed report of what was cash, and what was item, and showing the items looted, along with their ratio for the session anyways. |
| 19:18.23 | Ballmer_Peak | so it would be redundant. |
| 19:20.09 | Ballmer_Peak | It's not good to give people more information than they need. Having the option for them to delve deeper into the data is fine, but overloading the addon frame with everything is kinda dumb I think. |

| 19:42.28 | Ballmer_Peak | PPProfit:SetTexture("path\filename.ext", true, false) is saying 'SetTexture' a nil value. assume my path, filename and extension are correct. |
| 19:43.29 | Ballmer_Peak | is this another quirky thing I've messed up syntax on? |
| 19:50.16 | Ballmer_Peak | does the image have to be square, or is just powers of 2 enough? |
| 19:50.45 | Ballmer_Peak | the image i'm trying to make work is 512x512, but another one I'll want to load is 512x64 |
| 19:51.33 | Semlar | if your error is that SetTexture is a nil value it's because you're calling it on something (PPProfit) that isn't a texture |
| 19:52.29 | Semlar | you also can't use a single backslash in a quoted path like that because it's an escape symbol, so you either need to use backslashes or a forward slash |
| 19:59.49 | Ballmer_Peak | ok, I altered them from \ to \\ |
| 20:00.04 | Ballmer_Peak | and changed the call to the name of the CreateTexture call |
| 20:00.20 | Ballmer_Peak | ...umm did I reload the ui... |
| 20:00.41 | Ballmer_Peak | yes, but it just comes in totally transparent. |
| 20:03.02 | Semlar | if you're loading a new file into the game you have to restart the client |
| 20:03.39 | Ballmer_Peak | did that |
| 20:03.46 | Ballmer_Peak | totally exited and relaunched |
| 20:04.18 | Ballmer_Peak | and the file is already there, has been for 3 days now, was working when I was calling it from the xml file directly, but now I need to change it depending on what mode the addon is in. |
| 20:04.39 | Ballmer_Peak | so trying to get it to load via lua so I can muddle through changing it via lua when I need to. |
| 20:06.42 | Ballmer_Peak | I forgot to use SetPoint |
| 20:06.48 | Ballmer_Peak | I added that in, it shows up now. |
| 20:06.57 | Ballmer_Peak | totally ignoring the frame size though :( |

| 21:16.41 | kullervo | foxlit: you're great at cooking, don't let the fire alarm tell you otherwise |
| 21:16.46 | Gnarfoz | it's more likely related to GetNumRelicSlots |

| 21:19.58 | Gnarfoz | znf: I know I wouldn't do it either, but have you thought about calling |
| 21:20.16 | znf | Gnarfoz, the actual place closed at 22:00, apparently |
| 21:20.28 | znf | and the website/delivery service stopped support at 23:00 |

| 21:21.13 | foxlit | next you'll tell me I should not ingest 9V batteries, Thunder_Child. |
| 21:21.29 | Gnarfoz | anyway, it's not GetNumRelicSlots, only LibArtifactData uses that and I only have one addon that uses it, and it has a nil check there |

| 21:24.35 | foxlit | ! |
| 21:24.47 | Semlar | better be careful |
| 21:24.48 | Gnarfoz | considering the legendary robustness of the US power grid (and the assumption you're from there :O), that might be more of an issue than one might think |
| 21:24.54 | znf | I AM HUNGRY YOU MOTHERFUCKING USELESS PIECE OF SHIT WEBSITE |
| 21:25.09 | Semlar | the website doesn't care |
| 21:25.32 | Semlar | can you cancel your order that you've placed for tomorrow |
| 21:25.33 | Thunder_Child | znf: At this point, just go hit up a 24 hour drivethrough. |
| 21:25.43 | znf | I don't want to leave the office |
| 21:25.47 | znf | I still have stuff to do |
| 21:25.58 | Semlar | i bet there's an app for this |
| 21:26.15 | Semlar | you could probably hire someone to go pick something up for you |
| 21:26.27 | znf | Semlar, technically that website also has an app |
| 21:26.34 | Thunder_Child | Gnarfoz: That's not really an issue. Generally the farther west you go the better the power infrastructure since it was built later. |
| 21:26.46 | foxlit | uber for your pizza. |
| 21:27.07 | znf | I'm just going to hit a McDrive, I guess |
| 21:27.09 | Semlar | if not, nobody's allowed to steal my idea |
| 21:27.27 | Thunder_Child | I don't think anyone wants it. |

| 21:27.36 | Semlar | you just don't recognize my genius |
| 21:27.40 | relaxok | aren't they gonna harden the main parts of the power grid soon? |
| 21:27.49 | relaxok | since basically a single EMP explosion would cripple the country for 6 months |
| 21:28.25 | Semlar | that doesn't seem very likely |
| 21:28.31 | Thunder_Child | That's because there is nothing to recognize. |
| 21:29.01 | Gnarfoz | Thunder_Child: so all those people with constant power outages are form the east coast? |

| 21:50.12 | Constie | Surrender to Madness is so wacky. It's really pretty wild that it made it to live in 2016. |
| 21:50.33 | Semlar | <PROTECTED> |
| 21:50.35 | Gnarfoz | great, now I get the big black window of annoyance on login instead of just on UI reloads |
| 21:50.54 | nevcairiel | what did you break |
| 21:50.58 | Constie | A healer in my guild asked why I was dying at the end of every fight, and he assumed I was joking when I said my cooldown does that. |
| 21:51.26 | Semlar | i feel like if you leave combat it shouldn't kill you |
| 21:51.40 | nevcairiel | but where is the fun in that |
| 21:51.51 | Semlar | not having to rez someone at the end of every fight |
| 21:52.02 | nevcairiel | then you could use it all the time during questing and be wtf awesome |
| 21:52.13 | Gnarfoz | nevcairiel: nothing, but somehow Blizzard's ArtifactUI likes erroring! |
| 21:52.16 | Constie | It's actually kind of convenient, at least in EN. I can usually just barely loot the boss before I die, and then I resurrect back in the hub area. |
| 21:52.40 | Semlar | is it too late to make a fotm shadow priest |
| 21:52.41 | nevcairiel | Gnarfoz: mine doesnt do that, so it must be you! :D |
| 21:52.54 | nevcairiel | Semlar: dunno, might still get a month out of it |
| 21:53.02 | Semlar | seems like it would take forever to get an alt even remotely close to your main |
| 21:54.50 | Constie | Well, Shadow's big important golden trait is only 15 points in. |
| 21:55.24 | Constie | Or I guess 11 if you take a different path. |
| 21:55.53 | Semlar | since artifact knowledge is character specific though, it's going to be pretty slow |
| 21:56.10 | nevcairiel | first few levels of AK go pretty fast on a new char |
| 21:59.07 | Semlar | i used barrage in arcway earlier on some stairs and it didn't even hit my target, it shot straight down |
| 21:59.30 | Semlar | i had no idea barrage could even miss your target |
| 21:59.45 | Ballmer_Peak | Oh the new textures for the addon are so purdy.. |
| 22:00.38 | Ballmer_Peak | I'll upload some screenshots in a bit so ya'll can be jelly of my 1337 graphic skillz. |
| 22:00.38 | Semlar | you know what, i'm pretty sure they patched it |
| 22:01.01 | Semlar | they were talking about making it not hit things above and below you and i think they broke its ability to shoot on a ramp |
| 22:01.07 | Gnarfoz | nevcairiel: well, clearly someone is doing something they shouldn't... the error stack doesn't really give a good indication ^^ |
| 22:01.55 | Ballmer_Peak | grr, silly wow and it's patch. |
| 22:02.20 | Ballmer_Peak | well, break time I guess smoke em if you got em. |
| 22:02.23 | Gnarfoz | hm? |
| 22:02.26 | Gnarfoz | what patch ^^ |
| 22:02.47 | Gnarfoz | nevcairiel: even worse, it seems once it's broken it stays broken, even across UI reloads. |
| 22:02.54 | Ballmer_Peak | exit wow and restart it and you'll find out. unless you already patched. |
| 22:04.46 | Gnarfoz | I don't think we're talking about the same thing. |
| 22:09.20 | Gnarfoz | What could make C_ArtifactUI.GetTotalPurchasedRanks() return nil after a UI reload, TheDanW or Guill? (and how are those election parties coming?) |
| 22:10.06 | nevcairiel | dont those only return info after you opened a weapon once |
| 22:12.09 | Guill | Gnarfoz: GetTotalPurchasedRanks returns info about the "selected" artifact. If you reload UI, the selected artifact would get cleared and you'd need to visit a forge or open up your artifact to set it again. |
| 22:12.20 | TheDanW | ^ |
| 22:12.54 | Gnarfoz | does Blizzard_ArtifactUI do so on its own? |
| 22:13.47 | Gnarfoz | because I only have this error to go by and it doesn't betray who's doing something wrong https://haste.smb.wtf/izoxuduganezahotusarocokopocef.lua |
| 22:13.48 | TheDanW | when you select an artifact through the forge or via shift+right-click then it generates the ARTIFACT_UPDATE with true param |
| 22:14.35 | Gnarfoz | furiously greps for ARTIFACT_UPDATE |
| 22:21.12 | foxlit | better question: why is ARTIFACT_UPDATE firing when no data is available? |
| 22:22.19 | Semlar | it's letting you know that there isn't any information available! |
| 22:23.40 | Ballmer_Peak | Here is the minimum view, let me know what you guys/gals think! https://postimg.org/image/3vjxa3s77/ |
| 22:27.17 | Gnarfoz | only matches found in addons which were already disabled for using any C_Artifact things. :| |
| 22:27.32 | Gnarfoz | no idea where to go from here with that stack trace ^^ |
| 22:28.38 | Gnarfoz | or actually |
| 22:29.17 | Gnarfoz | it's right there? UIParent loads the Artifact UI in reaction to ARTIFACT_UPDATE |
| 22:30.39 | nevcairiel | that then begs the question what causes the event to fire |
| 22:30.49 | Gnarfoz | right |
| 22:31.12 | foxlit | idiom police, seize that man. |
| 22:32.19 | Gnarfoz | http://wow.gamepedia.com/Events/A#ARTIFACT_UPDATE "no arguments", eh? |
| 22:33.46 | foxlit | that would be hilarious |

| 22:42.56 | foxlit | you mean it's difficult for you to notice the background highlighting compared to non-highlighted lines? |
| 22:43.32 | Thunder_Child | foxlit: Yes. I only noticed them because it looked like the darker green row was bleeding down. |
| 22:44.06 | Thunder_Child | Granted, now that I know what I am looking at, it won't be a problem, but it did take a few moments to realize it. |
| 22:44.11 | kullervo | this weather <3 http://i.imgur.com/5CK3vGV.jpg |
| 22:45.24 | Thunder_Child | Ok, I see, dark green line is the highlight line. |
| 22:46.15 | Ballmer_Peak | Ok! I trimmed down the display so when it's minimized, it only shows the total gold earned. That way the bar isn't massive to accomodate the title and the data. |

| 22:57.24 | kullervo | facepalms |
| 22:57.43 | Gnarfoz | I can do that once I figure out which addon is causing ARTIFACT_UPDATE to fire (and how) |
| 22:58.22 | Gnarfoz | (well, none of them are written by me, so I'll palm someone else's face, if I can find out) |
| 23:00.38 | _Kee | /mes |
| 23:02.18 | TheDanW | Gnarfoz: relic info functions may trigger an artifact update |
| 23:02.47 | TheDanW | GetEquippedArtifactRelicInfo for example |
| 23:03.08 | Ballmer_Peak | how do I get my button to recognize it got clicked, and do something? |
| 23:03.17 | TheDanW | we should probably be gating that, but we're not :/ |
| 23:03.25 | Ballmer_Peak | I've tried setscript, and register event, but I must not be doing something right. |
| 23:04.15 | Ballmer_Peak | oh, something about mouse down right? |
| 23:04.50 | Gnarfoz | Buttons should default to being registered for LeftButtonUp http://wow.gamepedia.com/API_Button_RegisterForClicks |
| 23:04.50 | nebula | Ballmer_Peak: http://wow.gamepedia.com/API_Button_RegisterForClicks |

| 23:04.56 | Gnarfoz | ! |
| 23:04.57 | Gnarfoz | :D |
| 23:06.50 | nebula | but if it's a "Button" frame type, it should have it registered by default, you just need to add a OnMouseUp or OnClick script handler |
| 23:07.32 | Gnarfoz | TheDanW: so anything using C_ArtifactUI.*Relic* is under suspicion? and what would one do to avoid the base UI reacting to those events? prevent UIParent from loading the ArtifactUI... somehow? (something tells me that's not the right approach) |
| 23:07.47 | Ballmer_Peak | duh... ok. can you point me in that direction please nebula? |
| 23:08.23 | Ballmer_Peak | the duh is the sound I make when I'm lost, wasn't meant sarcastic at all, just wanted to clarify |
| 23:09.04 | nebula | hm? local button = CreateFrame("Button") button:SetScript("OnClick", function(self, button, down) print("Clicked", button) end) |
| 23:09.28 | Ballmer_Peak | Oh! |

| 23:10.39 | Gnarfoz | yeah, that won't work, heh |
| 23:11.14 | Ballmer_Peak | what if the button I made inherits nothing? |
| 23:11.27 | nebula | it's still a button |
| 23:11.30 | Ballmer_Peak | ok. |

| 23:17.54 | Gnarfoz | mhhh. RelicInspector decorates tooltips of artifacts and relics, maybe something is scanning tooltips using one of the built-in tooltips (terrible) on login? |
| 23:20.42 | Ballmer_Peak | ok, how do I raise a virtual button up in the stack? near as I can tell from frame stack, I can't even reach it to click on it. |

| 23:47.25 | znf | Gnarfoz, told you it wasn't my fault! |
| 23:47.44 | Gnarfoz | I think it's RainRider's |
| 23:48.22 | PhatsoTGT | znf this just in, you should plug the charger |
| 23:49.35 | PhatsoTGT | just you know if you forgot to actually plugging it in instead of just writing about it :D |
| 23:50.38 | Ballmer_Peak | I guess for cleaner/fewer lines of code, I should wrap up all this stuff that changes the properties of all the frames and stuff back and forth into one function. |
| 23:50.41 | Gnarfoz | although his LibArtifactData-1.0 lib already unregisters ARTIFACT_UPDATE from UIParent before it starts doing its thing |
| 23:52.41 | znf | c'mon motherfucker, fork() a bash shell |
| 23:52.50 | TheDanW | only GetRelicInfo and GetEquippedArtifactRelicInfo will generate the event currently |
| 23:57.01 | Fisker | I hope America doesn't fall apart for the next 30 hours |
| 23:57.19 | Gnarfoz | must be that lib. of the ones using GetRelicInfo (nothing I have uses the other one), the others only seem to do things on click, or in reaction to (among other things) ARTIFACT_UPDATE, i.e. they're not starting it |
| 23:57.54 | Gnarfoz | Gethe: do you know if RaiRider is reachable somewhere else than on GitHub? |
| 23:58.17 | Gnarfoz | (off chance, I saw that it's used in RealUI, or was at least considered) |
| 23:58.58 | Gethe | wowi |
| 23:59.50 | Gnarfoz | hm, that feels even less real-time. ok though. :D |
