00:00.25nevcairieleh not really, basically one line to remove the registration :D
00:02.37Elmoesure it was more just the confusion it caused having both, also there was a odd bug this xpac where if you listened to both strange things happened with duplication
00:02.56ElmoeI actually just moved everything over to UNIT_HEALTH_FREQUENT after that
00:03.32Elmoeyou used to have to use both because UNIT_HEALTH_FREQUENT was the only event that fired for boss unit IDs
00:04.07Elmoeor I should say you could not solely use UNIT_HEALTH

02:30.04Mr_Rabiesis there any way to trace what's going on with my staticpopup taint? wow keeps just blaming it on the blizzard module :/
03:04.33Mr_Rabiesokay, it's prat, just as i thought
03:04.39Mr_Rabieswish there was a decent replacement for it :(

04:04.51Ssatenethi wish i understood string match lua function, or rather, the pattern stuff
04:05.17Ssatenethlike take this line.
04:05.20Ssatenethstrmatch(" - 0/12 Nascent Val'kyr slain", '^ ([^ ]-) ?%- (.+)$')
04:05.38Ssatenethit somehow magically spits out these 2 returns
04:05.42Ssateneth[1]=""
04:05.42Ssateneth[2]="0/12 Nascent Val'kyr slain"
04:06.09Ssatenethlike... i cant even :(
04:07.19Ssatenethi wish my brain could absorb the language that is string pattern finding or whatever its called. i dont even know where to start in a matter that makes sense
04:08.21Mr_Rabiesis there at least something else out there that lets me move my editbox and move the chat frame to the edge of the screen?

09:19.24foxlitSsateneth: while you could probably learn regex/patterns by osmosis, it'd probably be less confusing to read a book.
09:25.50foxlitwheh, textbook prices are insane.
09:33.38sylvanaarRegex and patterns can easily be write-only :D
09:34.56foxlitmeh; patterns have like three concepts.
09:37.49foxlitbetween character classes, quantifiers, and captures, you're approximately done.
09:37.52nevcairiellua pattern are definitely not that hard, nothing compared to some more arcane regexes
09:52.24foxlit<PROTECTED>
09:55.01nevcairielwhy would you buy a 200 dollar hardcover used when you can get a new paperback for 40 bucks
09:55.53Maldivianevcairiel: some prefer it hard
09:56.05nevcairieli'm sure
09:56.15foxlitcheap textboooks are basically printed on toilet paper
09:59.22Enneaso you're saying they are our way out of this pandemic?
10:03.07*** join/#wowuidev Ackis (~Ackis@WoWUIDev/WoWAce/ARL/Troll/Ackis)
10:06.57foxlitI don't think that's how pandemics work.
10:10.30Enneaand here i thought toilet paper was the solution all along
10:11.32foxlitbut real talk: there's plentiful toilet paper, but limited flour and still no pasta.
10:13.31pnormanI was able to get some pasta and scored a hand cleaner refill that had fallen at the back of a shelf, but still no flour.
10:15.57nevcairielaround here pasta is fine, but yeast ran out, and tp has been scarce for a while
10:20.18foxlitall yeast or just dry yeast?
10:21.17nevcairielboth the typical dry powder and the blocks, at least

19:47.23Elmoe@Cairenn1: any word on whether we'll need to do a sign-up thing through WoWI again to get access to test our add-ons on beta like you've helped us with in past xpacs?
19:49.05Cairenn1Working on it :)  Already in talks with the folks at Blizz, just trying to figure out how we're doing it this time round.
19:49.23Elmoecool figure we've got some months before add-ons are enabled anyway, appreciate your help as always!
19:53.07Cairenn1:)
20:02.40MiRaiI actually heard that add-ons were actually enabled at the moment
20:15.28GnarfozI can check in a few
20:44.57*** join/#wowuidev pompy (~Mike@2601:87:4101:92f0:35bc:3f8d:8e7:2930)
20:45.19Gnarfozthey are indeed enabled, but if I just dump my entire addon folder from retail in there, the game crashes on login
20:46.13GnarfozInventorian works, though, so that's nice. <3 nevcairiel
20:48.56GnarfozOTOH https://pastie.dev/UUoFsV.asciidoc :D
20:49.35Elmoehmm that would be surprising for them to enable it so quickly, perhaps a mistake
20:49.46Elmoeintroducing add-ons while they are trying to debug would be a nightmare I'm sure
20:50.29Gnarfozfor sure, the internal alpha also crashed on login when using addons, so I doubt this is going to stay like this for long :D
20:50.48Gnarfozbut, Bartender, Inventorian, and WeakAuras all at least are loadable ^^
22:39.27GnarfozUNIT_HEALTH_FREQUENT is gone? me no likey :<
22:41.13Mr_Rabiessomeone was saying that the regular UNIT_HEALTH might do the same thing now or something the other day
22:46.12CrosshashBoth events were always firing together so we fired one.
22:48.48Mr_Rabies<Elmoe> you used to have to use both because UNIT_HEALTH_FREQUENT was the only event that fired for boss unit IDs || <Elmoe> or I should say you could not solely use UNIT_HEALTH
22:48.55Mr_Rabiesi'm guessing this fixes that too?
22:54.01CrosshashThere was one spot that was UNIT_HEALTH_FREQUENT only, for predicted health. That's now UNIT_HEALTH.
22:54.59nevcairielwas that for eg. boss units?
22:55.05Gnarfozcleanup ftw
22:55.13nevcairielsince those seemingly didnt fire UNIT_HEALTH
22:55.26CrosshashI don't know, but it was the only spot without UNIT_HEALTH
22:55.39GnarfozI shouldn't have added a bunch of addons at the same time, now I can't figure out which one makes it crash :D
22:55.50nevcairielanyone that plays sounds, apparently
22:55.57Gnarfozoh? hm
22:56.09nevcairielmaybe other things too
22:56.11GnarfozWeakAuras *can* do that but it works fine
22:56.36nevcairielbugsack might do it when it catches another addons error
22:56.42nevcairielfor example
22:57.19Mr_Rabiestiny fatality, but for the actual game client this time
22:57.30Gnarfozluckily, it's neither buggrabber nor bugsack :D
23:20.12Gnarfozaw shiet
23:20.22GnarfozI just realized I was moving addons to the alpha folder
23:20.26Gnarfozand then deleting them there :D
23:20.56nevcairielhaha
23:55.18ElmoeMr_Rabies: UNIT_HEALTH_FREQUENT always worked for all units including boss unit IDs from my understanding, it was just UNIT_HEALTH that wouldn't fire for boss unit IDs, I switched entirely over to UNIT_HEALTH_FREQUENT at start of BFA and its all been working fine (there was some event duplication bug when you registered both)
23:55.41ElmoeMr_Rabies: I'm assuming that the changes for SL they just deprecated the old UNIT_HEALTH and renamed UNIT_HEALTH_FREQUENT to UNIT_HEALTH
23:58.06ElmoeVuhDo always just used UNIT_HEALTH but when that Brackenspore encounter came out at the start of WoD people really wanted to heal the mushrooms easily and at least then UNIT_HEALTH did not fire for boss unit IDs (just my experience)
