IRC log for #wowuidev on 20180509

00:06.47Simcalooks like the popular event WORLD_MAP_UPDATED was renamed AREA_POIS_UPDATED
00:11.43nevcairieli wouldnt quite express it that way Simca
00:11.49nevcairielW_M_U is quite simply gone
00:11.58nevcairielbecause the map is now stateless and entirely managed in Lua
00:12.13Simcai mean it looks like blizzard did find-replace for their part
00:12.18nevcairielwhat can update is several  elements on the map
00:12.23nevcairielone of those is POIs
00:13.37nevcairielhonestly, i dont even see that
00:13.45nevcairielit was replaced in the POI data provider
00:13.47nevcairielwhich is only logical
00:13.55nevcairieleverything else was either deleted or commented out
00:15.31nevcairielthe good thing is that they got rid of the last statefulness of the map in this build

05:04.21nimhfreeSo it appears that C_Map.GetCurrentMapID() has been removed in 26567.  Does anyone know how to get the mapID of the map that is being shown?  [This can differ from the zone the character is in.]
05:10.40*** join/#wowuidev Buds (5a2d85c7@gateway/web/freenode/ip.90.45.133.199)
05:13.19BudsHi! Is there a way to unstuck a character from an other character on same account on beta? My 120 priest is stuck in a disconnect loop, idk what to do
05:24.59nimhfreeit appears we can use WorldMapFrame:GetMapID() but only as long as the map has been shown
05:35.32[TOM_RUS]you should use C_Map.GetBestMapForUnit
05:36.25[TOM_RUS]new interesting API's C_Map.GetMapPosFromWorldPos C_Map.GetWorldPosFromMapPos
05:39.24nebulaBuds: i just got the same thing while on a flight path and i doubt there is much you can do :\ wait for restarts? faction change?
05:41.22EllypseC_Map.GetBestMapForUnit won't give you the "map being shown", it will give you where the unit is. WorldMapFrame:GetMapID() is indeed the way to go to get the map currently shown in the WorldMapFrame, or BattlefieldMapFrame:GetMapID() if you want the one in the little battlefield map.
05:42.32[TOM_RUS]C_Map.GetBestMapForUnit returns a map that will be shown if you open WorldMap
05:42.39[TOM_RUS]so basically no difference
05:44.45EllypseHe asked how to get the map currently shown. If the player navigate in the map to go to other zones that's not what you want
05:54.03nimhfreeI keep track of two mapIds, the zone you are currently in, and the one the map is showing.  For the first we use C_Map.GetBestMapForUnit(‘player’) and for the second starting in BfA beta 26567 it seems we can use WorldMapFrame:GetMapID() as long as the map has been previously opened.  the WorldMapFrame also keeps this value until you open it again where it will be set where you are.

07:52.25bluspacecowthanks for the help nevcairiel!
08:08.43nevcairielI would probably use GetRealZoneText() bluspacecow
08:09.40nevcairielso you dont show the names of some random house you just went into
09:10.17nevcairielTentacled: there is no clear replacement for W_M_U, if you're looking for a way to be notified when the map changes what is displayed on it, you might want to hook into WorldMapFrame.OnMapChanged
09:20.22VIadI wonder if the C_Map helps avoid having to hardcode map localized map strings to get IDs from them. I can't exactly pinpoint the library, but I know there is one to help track the name of the minimap zone you're in, that only had a localized text, nothing constant :P
09:21.18nevcairieli have no clue why you would ever want to do that
09:21.48VIadthink some wanna load specific stuff when being in a specific area of a map, and in some places like instances, don't even got coordinates to work with :(
09:22.24nevcairielthose sub-areas are not a map-related thing
09:26.11*** join/#wowuidev VIad (~Vlad@cm-84.213.146.58.getinternet.no)
09:26.47VIadbluspacecow you forgot to add local so you're leaking the px and py coords
09:32.14VIadmakes sense since its splitup between two execution lines I guess
09:36.55EllypseIt could be minified and fit into one line I think, and have the coordinates local
09:37.21Ellypselocal a,b=C_Map.GetPlayerMapPosition(C_Map.GetBestMapForUnit("player"),"player"):GetXY();print(format("[ %s ] %.1f , %.1f",GetZoneText(),a*100,b*100))
09:37.25EllypseIt's only 151 characters

15:33.22TentacledMeh. While C_Map.GetWorldPosFromMapPos may seem nice, its use of table-based vectors is a footshot. Run 100 map coord calculations per frame and look at memory usage skyrocketing at 20 MB per second. Also, 1ms time taken, while 100 plain offset-and-scale calculations take less than 0.04ms. At this rate, I'm probably gonna milk GetWorldPosFromMapPos for offsets and stick with plain maths...
15:34.05nevcairieli tried to just get the offsets from that by calculating 0/0 and 1/1, but some zones disagree with my db2 data
15:34.09nevcairiel(most are fine though)
15:34.14nevcairielhave yet to test who is right
15:34.33Tentacled^ milking. :)
15:36.24nevcairielwill probably review the data it gives me in a couple days and either talk to Dan about it, or accept that I may not have had the full math figured out to account for all map weirdnesses, we'll s ee
15:39.34nevcairielbut yeah for positioning something like pins on the minimap where you calculate every frame times number of pins, the overhead might be comical
15:43.44Stanzillaokay thanks https://i.imgur.com/Zg1krYr.png
15:44.17Thunder_ChildAt least you were warned.
15:44.21nevcairielbelieve it or not, that error actually means that something is wrong somewhere
15:44.27nevcairielmine all went away after i fixed all the things
15:44.40sinus_I love something somewhere. :>
15:45.27Stanzillayeah bugsack shows the real error
15:45.41nevcairielthose are not necessarily related
15:45.52nevcairielthe (null) thing is one of the new Lua warnings
15:46.01nevcairielwhich have basically always existed, but just in FrameXML.log
15:46.10nevcairielnow  also in-game :)
15:46.44Funkeh`they are related
15:46.50Funkeh`fix the bug and the null error will go away
