| 04:39.42 | Noshei | gah |
| 04:39.59 | Noshei | another issue with detecting rally banners |
| 04:40.25 | Noshei | the method I'm using right now, checking if the ability to drop a banner is usable or not |
| 04:40.54 | Noshei | the problem with this is that if you dont have any rally banners, then the ability is always not usable |

| 07:12.49 | ZorbaTHut | is there no buff you can check? I admit I haven't looked into how rally banners work |
| 07:13.07 | ZorbaTHut | oh, guild rally banner, ne'er mind. yeah it wouldn't surprise me if there's no good way to detect that :/ |
| 07:14.10 | Noshei | yeah it is rather ugly to detect |
| 07:14.37 | Noshei | there is an ability, and the ability goes unusable when someone drops a rally banner |
| 07:15.12 | ZorbaTHut | I take it you're trying to detect if the guild rally banner is up so you can teleport to it? |
| 07:15.17 | Noshei | but it also goes unusable if you dont have any rally banners in your inventory, and if you can't attack, or you are in the movement of a movement ability |
| 07:15.36 | Noshei | more to provide a better alert to the player |
| 07:15.50 | ZorbaTHut | do you know offhand if there's a way to detect it within the client itself, even outside the addon system? |
| 07:16.19 | Noshei | it puts a guild message in the chat window |
| 07:16.23 | Ivnedar_ | does the notify event fire when it goes up? |
| 07:16.32 | ZorbaTHut | ah, so basically, Event.Chat.*, which of course does not yet exist |
| 07:16.44 | Ivnedar_ | if so, scrape that for character name, then pull back their location via guild roster lookup? |
| 07:18.07 | Noshei | Ivnedar_: it doesn't trigger any of the existing Event.Chat.* events |
| 07:18.16 | Noshei | but ZorbaTHut yeah most likely |
| 07:19.14 | Ivnedar_ | so you'd need an Event.System.Notify or something like that I guess |
| 07:21.57 | Noshei | right now I've been able to hack together something that mostly works |
| 07:22.16 | Noshei | but it isn't as reliable as I would like, but it at least works |
| 07:25.41 | Noshei | I'm watching the Event.Ability.New.Usable events, checking if it returns a table with only one key pair, checking if the player has any rally banners in their inventory, checking if the ability matched the rally banner ability and thne finally notifying the user |
| 07:26.43 | Noshei | most Event.Ability.New.Usable.* triggers for normal abilities will trigger on multiple abilities, very few cases will it only trigger for a single ability, like it does when a guild banner is used |
| 07:27.49 | Noshei | so that allowed me to get around the issue of it false positives from movement abilities (Angelic Flight), targetting a friendly npc, or being stunned. |
| 09:24.06 | ZorbaTHut | star trek first contact amusement: scene in space, borg wandering around the hull, one of them gets shot and gracefully drifts off into space under the influence of zero-G |
| 09:24.22 | ZorbaTHut | meanwhile, all the sparks emanating from the place where he got shot fall to the ground under what is obviously normal gravity. |
| 09:28.43 | Noshei | lol |
