| 03:57.02 | Noshei | hey sol, been a while |
| 03:58.11 | Solsis00 | yea... been busy busy... |
| 03:59.04 | Solsis00 | Picked up Toludin as a 2nd dev. Been on chat a lot with him teaching him what i've learned and getting him started. |
| 03:59.13 | Solsis00 | Come a long ways in a week. :P |
| 03:59.38 | Solsis00 | Maybe he'll see me bragging on him. :) |
| 03:59.47 | Solsis00 | How you been? |
| 04:03.04 | Noshei | busy |
| 04:03.57 | Noshei | oh you want to pick up any of the nk Addons to continue development? |
| 04:19.47 | Solsis00 | I dont' know about picking up. If I did anything with them it would be swallowing them into my own addon |
| 04:20.10 | Solsis00 | It's still upsetting he did that. |
| 04:22.00 | Noshei | well he has given me permission to continue them or to let anyone else if they want to |
| 04:22.18 | Noshei | they restored all of them on curse, but it seems riftui isn't able to |
| 04:22.31 | Solsis00 | anything that deals with unit frames I'd engulf into CBH. I'm planning to add a individual units, a castbar, buff/proc alerts, etc |
| 04:22.49 | Solsis00 | an* |
| 04:24.33 | Solsis00 | I would be interested in incorporating them and just putting base code thanks to Naifu or something. But that's about it since his addons kind of overlap my own. |
| 04:25.07 | Solsis00 | Since he already has the unit frames and everything built I would have a base to start with. |
| 04:28.01 | Solsis00 | So if that isn't a problem. I wouldn't mind taking the unit frame related addons. |

| 09:56.35 | Wildtide|work | nothing to feel bad about, it's not a secret :) |
| 09:57.00 | Snarty | I had a similar reaction when the API decided SetParent() would eventually kill the client :D |

| 11:14.38 | Toludin | so i'm having a very strange issue |
| 11:15.37 | Toludin | for some reason, setting a slider for either 55, 56, 57 or 58 (relates to a value of 0.55-0.58 for the green value of a frame) throws a parameter error for SetPosition() |
| 11:15.45 | Toludin | only those numbers, and it will happen every time |
| 11:19.06 | Toludin | and it looks like every single one of my sliders has the same problem |
| 11:19.26 | Toludin | setting a value to 55, 56, 57 or 58 will throw an error - but only those values (from 0 to 100) |
| 11:19.54 | Toludin | another slider with a different range can be set to those values and not cause an issue |
| 11:22.11 | Thorarin | Anybody have any good ideas on how to do proper error handling in combination with coroutines? |
| 11:22.32 | Thorarin | I get the feeling that errors occurring in them will not show up in the daily error reports |
| 11:24.57 | Wildtide|work | lol, i'd love to see the explanation for the slider error. maybe Zorba just doesn't like those numbers? |
| 11:25.40 | Wildtide|work | why would co-routines be treated any differently? |
| 11:27.15 | Wildtide|work | oh, because when you resume a co-routine, it returns false and an error? i guess you'd have to pick the error up after the call and rethrow it |
| 11:31.13 | Wildtide|work | so something along the lines of : ok, errormsg = coroutine.resume(co); if not ok then error("Error in co-routine Blah: " .. errormsg) end |
| 11:32.02 | Wildtide|work | stack trace will be useless i guess, but it'd be better than nothing |
| 11:41.27 | Thorarin | Yeah, I'm using coroutine.resume |
| 11:41.34 | Thorarin | The stack trace would be nice :< |
| 11:42.02 | Thorarin | Maybe I should try rewriting to coroutine.wrap |
| 11:43.23 | Toludin | Zorba: why do you have 55, 56, 57 and 58? what are you trying to tell us, from trapped deep in the bowels of Trion? |
| 11:43.24 | Toludin | is it a code? |
| 11:43.37 | Toludin | a desperate attempt to tell us the end is neigh? |
| 11:54.03 | Thorarin | Awww man :( |
| 11:54.20 | Thorarin | Updated LuaPad to new version, but there seems to be a major bug |
| 11:54.39 | Thorarin | The old version was rather broken, and I didn't backup my local half-arsed fixes |
| 11:56.36 | Wildtide|work | if i Google 55 56 57 58, the first result is a Google map link to a location in a remote region of Russia. maybe Zorba's being held there in a bunker? |
| 11:57.07 | Thorarin | What's this slider error? :> |
| 11:59.28 | Wildtide|work | Toludin's theory is that it's a coded cry for help from Zorba |
| 12:01.52 | Thorarin | Hmmm... I use sliders from 0 - 100 |
| 12:01.58 | Thorarin | Those values work fine 0.o |
| 12:02.53 | Thorarin | Maybe it's also related to the size of the actual slider? |
| 12:04.57 | Toludin | i'm not sure where's it going wrong. the call to the SetPosition is passing 55 |
| 12:05.15 | Toludin | or w/e I pick |
| 12:05.28 | Toludin | and in the savedvariables, it's set correctly |
| 12:08.22 | Thorarin | So GetPosition works, but not SetPosition? |

| 14:04.16 | Toludin | First, I think something is now broken with Noshei's Gadgets. I was using one of his templates, but the addon all of the sudden doesn't work due to a "missing wtLibMedia dependency" problem. Second, after every modification I make, reloadUI causes a crash and restart. Keep up the good work! |
| 14:04.56 | Toludin | rather generous of him to say that ;-) |

| 14:08.15 | Wildtide|work | what on earth i'm supposed to do about a crash is beyond me. it doesn't happen to me, so getting to the bottom of it could prove tricky |

| 17:18.26 | ZorbaBeta | assuming they happened today, and assuming he hit the "report error to trion" button, I may be able to find 'em when I get in on Monday |
| 17:19.31 | Baanano | i think if he plays on a server with a high auction volume.. his saved variables could have grown big enough to exceed 5 seconds to save and load |
| 17:19.46 | Baanano | that would explain why the game crashes only on reloadui |
| 17:20.07 | ZorbaBeta | I actually doublechecked that when implementing the watchdog, the watchdog is disabled during the load sequence and the shutdown sequence |
| 17:20.27 | ZorbaBeta | although I suppose if it exceeded 15 seconds, the watchdog's angrier older brother would kick in |
| 17:23.05 | Wildtide | if big brother terminates rift.exe with extreme predjudice, does it pop up a message or just silently disappear? |

| 19:30.37 | Noshei | lol |
| 19:30.48 | Noshei | no worries, I already had fixed it |
| 19:31.19 | Noshei | I noticed you removed the media lib with the last beta, so I pulled that out of my dependancies |
| 19:31.24 | Noshei | but then |
| 19:31.42 | Noshei | you dropped the playerAvailable event! |
| 19:31.48 | Wildtide | i also removed the Player.Available event, which is now back in |
| 19:31.55 | Noshei | no worries |
| 19:32.01 | Wildtide | as you apparently noticed :) |
| 19:32.03 | Noshei | I worked around that as well |
| 19:32.12 | Noshei | easy enough to get around |
| 19:32.25 | Wildtide | nah, it was really bad of me. i should be more careful with breaking changes to backwards compatibility |

| 19:32.56 | Noshei | ah it's all good, took me all of 2 minutes to get it working |
| 19:36.16 | Noshei | love those latest patch notes though wild |
| 19:40.41 | Noshei | hey wildtide, noticed an issue with the Octanus frame |
| 19:42.00 | Wildtide | mmm? |
| 19:42.27 | Noshei | it looks like your doing the name twice, but they aren't lining up |
| 19:42.41 | Wildtide | that's a shadow |
| 19:42.54 | Wildtide | sounds like the effect may be slightly lacking... |
| 19:43.25 | Wildtide | but having class coloured names on a bright green background is a bit tricky not to look like complete crap. i need to play with the fonts |
| 19:43.47 | Wildtide | actually, maybe it'd be better bold, that might be where i've gone wrong |
| 19:44.03 | Wildtide | it looks good in Octanus' original, and crappy in the actual frames |
| 19:44.54 | Wildtide | i would really like Zorba to give us outlined fonts, would save so many extra frames and dodgy shadow effects |
| 19:45.15 | Wildtide | but i daren't ask again, knowing how much Zorba loves fonts |
| 19:45.27 | Wildtide | though i kinda just did i guess |
| 19:45.31 | Thorarin | He does! He writes stuff at home ;-) |
| 19:45.32 | Noshei | well we can load in our own font s I believe |
| 19:45.45 | Noshei | though I bet it would be pretty expensive |
| 19:45.47 | Wildtide | Thorarin, true! |
| 19:46.11 | Wildtide | we can, but a font can't carry outlining in a different colour info with it |
| 19:46.17 | ZorbaBeta | text in general needs a lot of work, but I've generally been pushing that back in favor of adding truly new functionality |
| 19:46.36 | ZorbaBeta | "there is no map API" > "it is somewhat difficult to make pretty text effects" |
| 19:46.55 | Thorarin | :) |
| 19:47.25 | Thorarin | Originally I figured the lack of map API was intentional :> |
| 19:47.44 | ZorbaBeta | I've never understood why games are hesitant to provide a map API |
| 19:47.52 | ZorbaBeta | I asked Design and they couldn't figure it out either |
| 19:47.55 | ZorbaBeta | so, bam, map API |
| 19:48.12 | Noshei | soonish? |
| 19:48.13 | Wildtide | cool :) |
| 19:48.28 | Wildtide | (but pretty fonts would have been better ;p) |
| 19:48.30 | ZorbaBeta | already in there, yo |
| 19:48.44 | Noshei | oh I meant texture wise |
| 19:48.45 | ZorbaBeta | you can't interface with the native map frames but you have most of the data needed to recreate 'em, as usual (there's a few holes I have to work on) |
| 19:48.56 | ZorbaBeta | yeah, that's one of the missing features. haven't had time to work on it :/ |
| 19:49.56 | Noshei | so anything exciting that your hoping to get out with 1.10? |
| 19:51.19 | ZorbaBeta | Yup! |
| 19:51.23 | ZorbaBeta | and I'm off to bed, g'night all :) |
| 19:51.38 | Noshei | lol, night |
| 19:51.55 | Wildtide | lol, nn Zorba |
| 19:54.37 | Wildtide | oh. there's no Text:SetBold(). that's a bit of a blow |
| 19:54.46 | Wildtide | guess i need a bold font name |
| 19:55.41 | ZorbaBeta | remember the new html text, <b> may work. and now I'm really off to bed :V |
| 19:55.50 | Wildtide | oh yeah! forgot that |
| 19:55.57 | Wildtide | nn for real this time :) |
| 19:57.50 | Wildtide | aww, it didn't work :( |
| 19:57.57 | Wildtide | ok, back to a bold font name... |
| 19:58.18 | Noshei | did you do it right? |
| 19:59.00 | Noshei | cause I've found to to be a bit tricky |
| 20:03.51 | Wildtide | the name showed up on the frame as <b>Shyria</b> |
| 20:04.05 | Wildtide | not sure what else i could have done |
| 20:04.17 | Noshei | how did you do the code? |
| 20:04.43 | Wildtide | the end result when it hits the API would just be :SetText("<b>Shyria</b>") |
| 20:05.02 | Wildtide | in the template, i have "<b>{name}</b>" |
| 20:05.44 | Noshei | yeah that should work |
| 20:05.45 | Wildtide | which i've just realised would break on a long name, but that's irrelevant in this case |
| 20:06.18 | Noshei | ah I know why |
| 20:06.23 | Noshei | Text:SetText(text, html) -- string, boolean |
| 20:06.43 | Noshei | have to tell it you have html |
| 20:06.45 | Wildtide | oh? didn't know that |
| 20:06.57 | Wildtide | only ever played with it in the Console |
| 20:07.02 | Wildtide | but it makes sense |
| 20:07.46 | Noshei | though <b> isn't listed under setText, but that might not matter |
| 20:19.30 | Wildtide | given up for now, it just doesn't seem to work. i'm probably doing something silly, but got other stuff to sort |
| 20:48.49 | Thorarin | You mean stuff more important than bold letters? *gasp* |
| 20:58.43 | Wildtide | incredible isn't it?! |
| 21:02.05 | Noshei | well now I'm just stuck again |
| 21:02.46 | Noshei | Can't get my idea for capturing right clicks to attach items to work, cause I ccan't get my frame above the damn native bag frame |
| 21:04.57 | Toludin | ZorbaBeta, would it help to make a video of it in action (or pictures)? |
| 21:07.00 | Wildtide | Noshei, are you in the right strata? |
| 21:07.33 | Wildtide | i think you'll have to be in the strata above the bag frames, cos you can't use SetLayer() to get above them |
| 21:08.00 | Noshei | tried a couple different strata, but because the frames are on different strata lists it makes no difference |
| 21:10.43 | Wildtide | hmm, not sure then |
| 21:10.58 | Wildtide | on a different note, just been playing with MiniFrame - i do like the range fade :) |
| 21:11.51 | Noshei | yeah it's pretty nice isn't it |
| 21:12.09 | Noshei | works on the simple raid frame as well |
| 21:12.46 | Wildtide | oh yeah, that is nice |
| 21:13.30 | Noshei | I need to update the range fade at some point to account for radius and changes in radius, but I don't see it as a major concern |
| 21:14.06 | Wildtide | i need to add that option to the range finder as well. just a check box and if it's set, subtract the radius |
| 21:14.28 | Wildtide | oh yeah... and changes. hmmm, that can wait |
| 21:14.44 | Noshei | yeah zorba was nice enough to add an event for radius changes |
| 21:14.51 | Wildtide | aye, i saw that |
| 21:15.06 | Wildtide | right, RL beckons, bbiab |
| 21:28.52 | Toludin | Just to add with my error - if I save the variable as 55-58 and then relog, the options windows stop drawing once it reaches the affected slider, so you have to manually do a /script to change the slider. This doesn't happen when simply opening or closing the options in one game session. |
| 21:52.49 | Wildtide|afk | Toludin, just had a play with CBH, and i managed to get the error to disappeaar |
| 21:52.54 | Wildtide|afk | *disappear |
| 21:53.08 | Toludin | what black sorcery is this? |
| 21:53.32 | Wildtide|afk | as an example, on line 56 of optionWindow2Frames.lua, i tried this: |
| 21:53.33 | Wildtide|afk | cbh.OptionsUICHCr:SetPosition(math.floor(cbhTempColorsHF[1] * 100)) |
| 21:53.42 | Wildtide|afk | the math.floor seemed to get rid of the error |
| 21:53.51 | Wildtide|afk | i was thinking it could be some floating point nonsense |
| 21:54.50 | Toludin | yknow i was wondering if it could have something to do with floating point, but i really don't know enough about what causes those sorts of math errors to investigate it |
| 21:55.04 | Toludin | or posit that idea |
| 21:55.11 | Wildtide|afk | i don't either, so i just brute forced trying things :) |
| 21:55.35 | Wildtide|afk | first thing i did was replace SimpleSlider with RiftSlider to check that, no change |
| 21:55.59 | Toludin | so here's a question then - why do our sliders break, and no one else's? |
| 21:56.16 | Wildtide|afk | i have no idea |
| 21:56.28 | Toludin | does no one else store the rgb values as 0.x, and then multiply by 100 to show it on a slider? |
| 21:56.29 | Wildtide|afk | maybe you're the only ones doing the percentage conversion thing |
| 21:57.12 | Toludin | well thank you for the catch, wild :) |
| 21:57.16 | Toludin | ill see if that fixes it |
| 21:57.23 | Wildtide|afk | i would probably store the 0-100 value, and multiply when actually setting the colour |
| 21:57.30 | Wildtide|afk | good luck, hope it works :) |
| 21:58.15 | Solsis00 | Thanks a ton Wild for the info. We appreciate it! |
| 21:58.37 | Solsis00 | I'm sad.... It looks like the KBM guy came in here? And I wasn't here. :( |
| 21:58.45 | Wildtide|afk | i think the root cause is, when calling into the API, if Zorba's C function expects an integer and the Lua number happens to have any fractional part, it'll break |
| 21:58.54 | Wildtide|afk | he did, yep :) |
| 21:59.14 | Solsis00 | He's really taking it rough too. I think his addon is great and I HAVE NO ERRORS OR ISSUES AT THIS TIME with it. *knocks on wood* |
| 22:00.35 | Wildtide|afk | when you've got an addon as insanely popular as KBM, and it breaks, the pressure to fix it must be immense |
| 22:00.38 | Solsis00 | I don't know what all the complaining is about. It broke with watchdog. So did every other addon out there. So FIX IT!. And that he has. Even though I tested the crap out of mine on the PTS, when it hit live.. watchdog went nuts. Unfortunately. |
| 22:00.39 | Toludin | what's the problem with KBM? |
| 22:00.54 | Wildtide|afk | just the Watchdog |
| 22:01.03 | Toludin | jeez. |
| 22:01.20 | Wildtide|afk | i don't think there really is a problem with KBM, Zorba's watchdog change will probably totally fix it |
| 22:01.21 | Solsis00 | None now that I am personally aware of. But was watchdog issues. |
| 22:01.24 | Toludin | i really wish watchdog errors were shown to the user in a bit of a different fashion |
| 22:01.41 | Solsis00 | I wish the leash was just a tad longer |
| 22:01.50 | Toludin | thats what she... |
| 22:01.50 | Toludin | nm |
| 22:01.57 | Wildtide|afk | :) |
| 22:01.57 | Toludin | anyway |
| 22:02.04 | Solsis00 | lol |
| 22:02.34 | Toludin | i think most people see the error dialogue box and just immediately think "it's broken" and go yell on the forums |
| 22:02.49 | Wildtide|afk | yep. i needed to look a bit different somehow |
| 22:02.54 | Wildtide|afk | and not stop play |
| 22:07.59 | Wildtide|afk | err... "it needed" |
| 22:09.03 | Toludin | interesting - if you set a slider to 57 and close the window (save it to variables), it will load in as 56 |
| 22:09.12 | Toludin | supporting your idea a little further |
| 22:09.17 | Toludin | (with math.floor that is) |
| 22:10.30 | Wildtide|afk | yep, was gonna mention that might be a problem |
| 22:10.36 | Toludin | if you're driving in a car with a programmer and you say "floor it!," does he just stay stopped at 0? |
| 22:10.44 | Wildtide|afk | lol |
| 22:10.54 | Wildtide|afk | standard rounding function would be math.floor(value+0.5) |
| 22:11.09 | Toludin | good call! |
| 22:11.21 | Toludin | i get the feeling here that this is not your first rodeo |
| 22:11.31 | Wildtide|afk | hehe, nope :) |
