| 12:31.27 | VIad | a lot of addons use a copy paste of a nighthold weakaura that creates textures in the aura_env.texturePool table they define, issue is, it will keep defining more and more and never re-use properly if you open the /wa options in between and such :( |
| 12:34.08 | VIad | I wish that WeakAuras could provide plugins their own persistent session storage to store textures or other widgets they use. since aura_env is re-loaded and there is no great way to store stuff in _G with cleanup |
| 12:37.25 | nevcairiel | aura_env is exactly that, if it blindly re-creates stuff without checking if it already exists, it only has itself to blame |
| 12:38.53 | VIad | really? |
| 12:39.14 | VIad | I wonder why my experience was that aura_env was wiped if I altered the aura a bit, like moved it around and such |
| 12:39.55 | VIad | in that case yeah it will work fine :d at work can't test sadly |
| 12:52.22 | StephenLynx | i was observing something, but did anyone else thought the geography of the world map is different on legion? as in, lots and lots of cliffs? |
| 12:53.14 | StephenLynx | I think every single zone was like that on legion, and I don't remember any expansion that would be consistently like that. |
| 12:53.35 | StephenLynx | specially considering the zones are meant to be explored on land |
| 12:58.12 | VIad | probably designed around gliders pre-flying :d |
| 12:58.25 | VIad | and demon hunters, loads of gliding spots |

| 13:05.59 | nevcairiel | its called the broken isles, breaking things leaves sharp edges everywhere |
| 13:10.44 | VIad | broken car windows are square shaped with no sharp edges |
| 13:40.26 | StephenLynx | so is not just me |
| 13:41.18 | Simca | it's definitely more vertical than any other expansion by a longshot |
| 13:41.39 | Simca | especially the suramar-highmountain border |
| 13:48.00 | VIad | uh, maybe 8.0 gives us the third axis so we can map 3d space for navigation addons? :D |
| 13:48.19 | Simca | nothing could go wrong with that |
| 13:49.57 | VIad | instances already disable the positioning info so :D |
| 13:51.43 | VIad | oh, I wonder if I use a group, if aura_env has a way to like, share env for that whole group? or like aura_env.group for a shared env? |
| 13:52.02 | StephenLynx | i was just asking because I found a chore to quest on broken isles. |
| 13:52.15 | VIad | need a taxi/flyer? :D |
| 13:52.22 | StephenLynx | I was constantly looking for passages to walk up cliffs |
| 13:52.34 | VIad | its part of the lvling experience |
| 13:52.41 | StephenLynx | its part of legion leveling experience. |
| 13:52.43 | VIad | learning the paths to places |
| 13:53.35 | VIad | sadly a 100>110 boost only skips the leveling, it unlocks nothing else, so you still have to grind out all the chapters, rep grinds to unlock whistle, flying grinds, class hall grinds, artifact weapons, balance of power stuff, really |
| 13:53.51 | VIad | 100>110 skips only like 8 hours of leveling, it's almost not worth it :x |
| 13:54.20 | StephenLynx | i quit again, anyway. found too many bugs and blizzard doesn't seem to fix them anyway. |
| 13:54.39 | Gnarfoz | bwahaha |
| 13:54.40 | Gnarfoz | k! |
| 13:54.57 | StephenLynx | there was even a mob from wod that has been always bugged. |
| 13:55.16 | StephenLynx | he sit on a wall, wouldn't aggro and you couldn't range attack him, it would say there was no line of sight. |
| 13:55.25 | Gnarfoz | you answered your own question already, anyway. the zones are meant to be explored on land, and stacking things on different levels that are only reachable by going the long way around => feels like more area (cynic translation: "takes longer") |
| 13:56.01 | StephenLynx | feels like a pain in the ass tbh, if they wanted it to take longer, they could just stretched the areas and left empty spaces. |
| 13:56.25 | Gnarfoz | yeah empty spaces reek of quality world design |
| 13:56.29 | Simca | bugs are one of the most annoying parts of the game for me. i have a knack for noticing them, and almost all of the ones i find are low enough priority that I know they probably won't be fixed. |
| 13:56.33 | Mr_Rabies | thats what most of the expansions prior to wod did if they wanted to increase travel time |
| 13:57.08 | Mr_Rabies | wod and legion opt for more natural design where you can only scale a mountain from a path or two, and have to find it |
| 13:57.19 | Gnarfoz | I'm not saying I'm a fan, just saying why it is the way it is, most likely |
| 13:57.20 | Mr_Rabies | sometimes it's a little too much work to find the path, sometimes it's not bad |
| 13:58.06 | StephenLynx | i also saw a harpie having a seizure, getting neck deep on the ground |
| 13:58.12 | StephenLynx | a goat that traversed a boulder to hit me |
| 13:58.31 | StephenLynx | a whole phased scenario that just didn't activate when I came back from a dungeon |
| 13:58.41 | StephenLynx | a mob that evaded attacks while I was running towards it |
| 13:58.45 | VIad | on mythic portal keeper we had some issues with "line of sight" on the platform minibosses |
| 13:59.00 | VIad | saying the vision is obscured, unable to interrupt, caused us a wipe or two. :P |
| 13:59.09 | VIad | had that even happen to me as melee/tank |
| 13:59.24 | Simca | i wish there was a blizzard bug forum thread called 'bad mob spawns' or something that they would actively monitor and fix |
| 13:59.37 | Simca | so we could fix all the mobs under the world and inside trees and stuff |
| 13:59.40 | StephenLynx | I could tolerate all the design changes I din't like, but feeling like the quality of the product just isn't there anymore was the straw that broke the camel's back |
| 13:59.49 | StephenLynx | ah, there was another annoying thing |
| 13:59.53 | VIad | east coast with the raptors in stormheim is buggy since 7.2 |
| 13:59.54 | StephenLynx | my pet wouldn't taunt large mobs |
| 14:00.07 | VIad | pets cant taunt skull mobs anymore,bosses |
| 14:00.15 | StephenLynx | it wasn't a skull mob |
| 14:00.22 | StephenLynx | one was a wod rare |
| 14:00.31 | StephenLynx | another was a regular quest mob. |
| 14:00.36 | VIad | did you die? |
| 14:00.38 | StephenLynx | yes. |
| 14:00.39 | StephenLynx | twice. |
| 14:00.42 | VIad | explains the salt |
| 14:00.59 | StephenLynx | tbh, at that point I didn't mind it too much. |
| 14:01.00 | VIad | I usually dont remember specifics unless it really set me back some :d |
| 14:01.19 | VIad | can recomment feign death + misdirect pet |
| 14:01.19 | StephenLynx | it was the only one that blocked me somehow and the one I remember the least. |
| 14:01.25 | StephenLynx | I did both. |
| 14:01.36 | VIad | wasthis long time ago? |
| 14:01.41 | VIad | might be fixed now :o |
| 14:01.46 | StephenLynx | two weeks ago, wod mob. |
| 14:01.47 | Simca | the mobs usually aren't immune |
| 14:01.57 | StephenLynx | I think the pet just wouldn't cast it. |
| 14:02.04 | StephenLynx | because I saw it wasn't on cooldown. |
| 14:02.05 | Simca | the pets just refuse to autocast |
| 14:02.17 | Simca | forcing them to use it will usually work |
| 14:02.43 | StephenLynx | but again, it was just one thing on a pile of details that makes me thing their QA isn't up to snuff anymore. |
| 14:02.45 | Simca | it's designed to stop hunters from making tanks pull out their hair |
| 14:02.59 | VIad | Simca: doesnt stop pets taunting on heroic :D |
| 14:03.02 | VIad | daily dungeon |
| 14:03.22 | Simca | yeah cause heroic trash isn't a high enough mob level. I think they only taunt 111 and lower mobs |
| 14:03.22 | VIad | often experience many stuff turning to the side, but I dont mind, when pet dies I get aggro :D |
| 14:03.40 | StephenLynx | not even going to mention the black character selection screen we had last week |
| 14:03.47 | StephenLynx | because I know shit happens when you deploy stuff. |
| 14:04.00 | StephenLynx | and they used to fuck that up back in the day too. |
| 14:04.36 | Simca | i mean they fucked up a lot of mob spawns back in the day too, but it was slightly forgivable because they were putting an entire world out there |
| 14:05.11 | Simca | i'm a little surprised they don't have a tool to auto detect bad spawn placement |
| 14:05.36 | VIad | rarely, but can still find veins or herbs under the ground, might be phasing related :o |
| 14:05.57 | Simca | they've gotten a little better with that but yeah there's still a few cases |
| 14:06.02 | Simca | trees and rocks are usually to blame |
| 14:06.50 | VIad | could run a client bot like 1000x speed just walk around the entire world |
| 14:06.54 | VIad | and log the hitboxes :D |
| 14:07.12 | VIad | or run a million bots at 100x speed and just log their navpaths and see whats reachable ;d |
| 14:07.54 | Stanzilla | valsharah is pretty bad |
| 14:08.00 | Stanzilla | still so many mobs in trees / under ground |
| 14:08.03 | VIad | if scanning the topology is hard when you add phasing/wmo/crap on the groun level |
| 14:09.28 | VIad | weird spawns have not been a big issue as you usually have nearby spawns you can attack normally. |
| 14:09.44 | VIad | might have some bugs in the older expansions from legion changes though. |
| 14:09.52 | VIad | that wasnt a problem when wod was current |

| 14:19.06 | nevcairiel | I don't understand people getting so upset about irrelevant bugs like that, so there is a mob in a tree, its not going to stop you from playing. One must not enjoy any games with such an attitude towards irrelevant hiccups, thats pretty much par for the course with any open world game. |
| 14:22.08 | nevcairiel | For mobs its not necessarily even bad spawn points, sometimes they walk into a tree and get stuck |
| 14:23.03 | nevcairiel | For Val'sharah specifically, i think they remodelled it sometime during development, during beta half the zone was basically mis-spawning at some point :D |
| 14:24.15 | VIad | I'll just put proper CPU core and threading support on my wow wishlist for 2030 :D |
| 14:24.43 | VIad | would improve my overall pleasure playing wow, mostly in raids where I notice it the most |
| 14:31.43 | StephenLynx | nevcairiel, not upset, really. |
| 14:31.50 | StephenLynx | but the game feels like a cheap product. |
| 14:32.07 | StephenLynx | and in my mind, not worth what they ask for. |
| 14:32.50 | StephenLynx | specially when I have experiences fewer bugs on certain private servers. |
| 14:32.56 | StephenLynx | experienced* |
| 14:34.43 | VIad | the feeling of how mobs path on private servers is heavily diminished if you learned how to kite on live :P |
| 14:34.45 | StephenLynx | I see something like that and call I think is that bob kotick is holding a puppy hostage and if they don't follow a strict release schedule, the puppy gets it |
| 14:35.01 | StephenLynx | and all I can think* |
| 14:35.32 | StephenLynx | so QA be damned, they need to release it |
| 14:36.50 | StephenLynx | it really takes me out of the whole adventure on a virtual world mindset. |
| 14:36.52 | Simca | I mean I feel patch quality in terms of polish is lower recently, but I don't think mob spawns are a sign of it. they've been broken about the same amount in every expansion |
| 14:37.21 | ls- | offtopic, I like bobby kotik's surname, it means kitty in certain Slavic languages :3 |

| 18:02.23 | Simca | deep CLEU ones are apparently not documented, yeah |
| 18:02.48 | nevcairiel | it probably doesnt fit into that framework anyway, since it varies based on earlier arguments |
| 18:05.14 | TheDanW | all events are documented in 8, except for CLEU because it's very difficult to document |
| 18:05.29 | TheDanW | at some point i'd like to rework it, give it some proper APIs |
| 18:05.57 | nevcairiel | at the same time as the map api, i'm sure |
| 18:05.58 | nevcairiel | :D |
| 18:06.02 | TheDanW | there will be a breaking change, CLEU no longer has any event payload |
| 18:06.15 | nevcairiel | we spotted that already |
| 18:06.17 | nevcairiel | well some of us |
| 18:06.18 | TheDanW | instead you'll need to call GetCurrentCombatTextEventInfo(), which will return exactly what the old payload was |
| 18:06.21 | ls- | Oh, TheDanW, could we get FontFamily-related API? Something like CreateFontFamily func that creates an object w/ SetKoreanFont, SetRomanFont, etc methods that can be used later for SetFontObject, or even better just add these methods to font strings.

| 18:08.17 | nevcairiel | :D |
| 18:08.28 | TheDanW | the new event system is automatically generated, but we intentionally wanted to avoid having "context" arguments, that is, interpret the next N+1 arguments differently based on the Nth argument |
| 18:08.31 | Resike | <ls-> i would second that, to ditch xml for defining asian and russian fonts |
| 18:08.58 | TheDanW | so we didn't add support for that into the system |
| 18:09.05 | nevcairiel | so CLEU basically conflicted with that, and hence the function call |
| 18:09.15 | TheDanW | yeah, CLEU obviously doesn't play well with that |
| 18:10.06 | ls- | Resike: yeah, it's a PITA, the only alternative it to use very VERY heavy unicode fonts, CJK Noto w/ additional Cyrillic and Latin support is over 20MB >_> |
| 18:10.13 | ls- | is to* |
| 18:10.20 | TheDanW | the new map APIs will have minimal state in C, its based on the flightmap/mapcanvas system |
| 18:11.54 | Resike | but won't the extra calls slow down CLEU parsers? |
| 18:11.56 | nevcairiel | i'm mostly interested in retrieving data, not the map drawing itself, info about the maps/zones, as well as player position (current zone etc) - notably the second is riddled with state right now, although the first also requires it to some degree |
| 18:12.31 | TheDanW | Resike: the cost is roughly equivalent, it's not free to push the CLEU args |
| 18:12.48 | Resike | fair enough |
| 18:13.51 | TheDanW | nevcairiel: i'm using mapcanvas as an example, the API is uses it C stateless, you can query information without having to call SetMap first - that API is being expanded and the old map API is going away |
| 18:14.12 | nevcairiel | sounds good, just hoping some info isnt left behind that addons use :) |
| 18:15.49 | Funkeh` | TheDanW: so was that change worth the extra overheard of an extra function call for an event that fires so frequently it's basically an onupdate |
| 18:16.01 | TheDanW | ls-: seems reasonable, i'll add it to the list |
| 18:16.14 | nevcairiel | you should read up Funkeh`, he already answered that not 5 minutes ago =p |
| 18:16.22 | Funkeh` | oh ok sorry |
| 18:16.23 | ls- | TheDanW: wow \o/ |
| 18:16.30 | ls- | Resike: yay!!!! |
| 18:16.44 | Resike | nais |
| 18:17.17 | TheDanW | to be clear, it's fairly low priority since the xml approach mostly works, just not as dynamic |
| 18:18.48 | ls- | but it'll help many many EU and Asian players :> |
| 18:18.57 | Resike | TheDanW: I've already started documenting the new widget methods if you want review it and pull it for the blizz doc feel free to do so: https://github.com/Resike/BlizzardInterfaceResources/blob/master/Resources/WidgetReference.lua |
| 18:19.27 | Resike | there will be arguments and return values added too |
| 18:19.41 | nevcairiel | should one really copy-paste every inherited method into every widget |
| 18:19.59 | Funkeh` | TheDanW: so will this new system give us pet owners in normal cleu |
| 18:20.43 | Funkeh` | answer yes an PM me your bank account details |
| 18:21.34 | ls- | :D |
| 18:21.34 | Resike | nevcairiel: Yes because there are some methods that does not get inherited for some widgets at all |
| 18:21.50 | nevcairiel | like what? maybe your inheritance tree is wrong then |
| 18:22.24 | Resike | i can't give you examples right now but i know i run into it |
| 18:22.50 | Resike | i extracted everything directly from ingame so if there is no method then there is not one |
| 18:44.27 | zork | Pretty exicted about 8.0 already |

| 19:20.57 | Shockah | what's the reason for locking it in the first place |
| 19:21.57 | zork | To give russians the ability to show their hacking skills |
| 19:23.36 | Gethe | probably to force people actually find bugs in the UI without muddying things with non-Blizzard code. |
| 19:26.00 | Stanzilla | ^ |
| 19:26.12 | [TOM_RUS] | pretty sure there's enough ppl playing without or with minimum addons so that's questionable |
| 19:27.16 | [TOM_RUS] | and third party UI's use more API's than default one so chances bugs are discovered are higher... |
| 19:29.29 | Gethe | maybe so, but it still adds an amount of uncertainty on their end of whether or not a bug is them or some addon author. |
| 19:44.06 | Andols | Will CLEU give us the reason for the event so you know when to do GetCurrentCombatTextEventInfo() or do you have to call that every CLEU that fires? |
| 19:46.14 | [TOM_RUS] | call it every time event fires |
| 19:46.48 | Andols | meh |
| 19:47.37 | Simca | it's also restricted because the addon API is often completely unfinished this early on |
| 19:48.17 | Simca | so people fixing their addons to keep up with 8.0 alpha would have to deal with large amounts of functions that just didn't work right or weren't even implemented |
| 19:48.44 | Simca | i mean i don't mind doing that but some people would be annoyed probably |
