| 00:22.45 | Ivnedar | gah, hate going around in circles with first level support :( |

| 02:55.23 | Thy_ | hey guys |
| 02:55.48 | Thy_ | so im looking at making an addon for rift |
| 02:55.54 | Thy_ | its basically a remake addon from WOW |
| 02:56.36 | Ivnedar | hi :) |
| 02:56.48 | Thy_ | basically when you are standing in a zone that damages you, it sets off an alarm telling you to move before you get damaged. i feel it would be a good idea for alot of people in expert dungeons learning the mechs |
| 02:57.35 | Thy_ | after ive ran a few dungeons with people, they say the main reason they died is because they didnt notice they were in a bubble, or in a red zone |
| 02:57.46 | Thy_ | i figure this would help eliminate that a bit |
| 02:57.51 | Ivnedar | so a gtfo type thing? |
| 02:58.02 | Thy_ | yep, basically |
| 02:58.25 | Thy_ | not sure if someone already made this, but i have a friend of mine downstairs that plays wow, and he was showing me the addon |
| 02:58.46 | Thy_ | i figured it would be a good idea for rift :) |
| 02:59.15 | Ivnedar | kbm does it for some encounters, but only normally for the really hard to see ones |
| 03:00.20 | Thy_ | i was looking into kbm, but i am looking at more of an every time encounter, not just a few |
| 03:00.43 | Thy_ | do you think it would be possible to make something like this? and would it be logical? |
| 03:00.59 | Ivnedar | yup, should be possible |
| 03:01.11 | Ivnedar | an event fires whenever you take damage |
| 03:01.29 | Ivnedar | so hook into that, check the source, if it matches the list you create, display something on the screen |
| 03:01.43 | Thy_ | hmm |
| 03:02.00 | Thy_ | i'll look into it more, i havent started yet, this is just an idea |
| 03:02.25 | Thy_ | i want to contribute to the rift community, not just be apart of it |
| 03:04.07 | Ivnedar | the api browser addon is a good starting point to seeing what's available |
| 03:06.02 | Thy_ | thanks :) |

| 04:03.32 | Ivnedar | hi :) |
| 04:03.50 | circ-user-eGuEA | sec see if I cant change my name lol |
| 04:04.02 | [TM]Treaborne | there we go |
| 04:04.41 | [TM]Treaborne | had a question if anyone can answer it ^.^ |
| 04:04.51 | Ivnedar | shoot |
| 04:05.33 | [TM]Treaborne | btw dont think Ive had a chance to thank the great devs.. Thanks for all your work in RIFT ;) |
| 04:05.44 | Ivnedar | points to ZorbaBeta |
| 04:05.46 | Ivnedar | It's all him :) |
| 04:05.50 | [TM]Treaborne | Im trying to filter out quests of a certain type |
| 04:05.52 | [TM]Treaborne | yea Zorba! |
| 04:06.36 | [TM]Treaborne | is there a way to check if a quest is for IA or carnage? |
| 04:06.38 | Ivnedar | as in not have them display in the tracker? or when you pull back a list of quests? |
| 04:07.00 | Ivnedar | in game or from discovery data? |
| 04:07.11 | [TM]Treaborne | ingame |
| 04:08.00 | Ivnedar | I can't remember what's in the .tag member |
| 04:08.27 | [TM]Treaborne | I did some google searching but all I get is listings for svns of current addons lol |
| 04:08.51 | Ivnedar | if you do an /script print(Inspect.Quest.Detail("qFE6B06139CA3A0A1").tag) |
| 04:08.54 | Ivnedar | what does it show? |
| 04:09.08 | [TM]Treaborne | and if I add every quest as a string that will just make the files too large |
| 04:09.13 | [TM]Treaborne | sec |
| 04:09.30 | [TM]Treaborne | Error: [string "print(Inspect.Quest.Detail("qFE6B06139CA3A0A1..."]:1: attempt to index a nil value Executing print(Inspect.Quest.Detail("qFE6B06139CA3A0A1").tag) stack traceback: [string "print(Inspect.Quest.Detail("qFE6B06139CA3A0A1..."]:1: in main chunk |
| 04:10.36 | [TM]Treaborne | i did this just now /script print(Inspect.Quest.Detail("k")) |
| 04:10.43 | [TM]Treaborne | Error: Incorrect function usage. Parameters: "k" Parameter types: string Function documentation: Provides detailed information about a quest. detail = Inspect.Quest.Detail(quest) -- table <- quest details = Inspect.Quest.Detail(quests) -- table <- table Parameters: quest: The quest to retrieve detail for. quests: A table of quests to retrieve detail for. Return values: detail: Detail table for a single quest. details: Detail |
| 04:11.01 | [TM]Treaborne | I see instant in that |
| 04:11.22 | [TM]Treaborne | so in theory if I replaced the k with instant would that work? |
| 04:11.37 | Ivnedar | you need to replace k with a quest id |
| 04:11.57 | Ivnedar | qFE6B06139CA3A0A1 was the first carnage quest in my list, so thought it was a good start |
| 04:12.50 | [TM]Treaborne | hmm so i would need each id for every q then? |
| 04:13.17 | Ivnedar | If you're working off the quests the player has, then you already have a list of ids |
| 04:13.28 | Ivnedar | Inspect.Quest.List() gives the ids of the current quests of the player |
| 04:13.49 | [TM]Treaborne | ok |
| 04:14.29 | Ivnedar | <PROTECTED> |
| 04:14.36 | Ivnedar | that'll dump out all the info about all the active quests |
| 04:14.49 | [TM]Treaborne | another question the timers are they in sec, or min? |
| 04:15.27 | Ivnedar | which timers? |
| 04:15.45 | [TM]Treaborne | Inspect.Time.Real() |
| 04:15.48 | Ivnedar | seconds |
| 04:16.05 | Ivnedar | grab the api browser addon if you don't have it yet |
| 04:16.14 | Ivnedar | the documentation for the api is pretty awesome :) |
| 04:16.23 | [TM]Treaborne | is that the in game one? |
| 04:16.28 | Ivnedar | yeah |
| 04:16.49 | [TM]Treaborne | ah ok |
| 04:18.53 | [TM]Treaborne | I think I found what I was looking for: domain: The quest's domain. May be "area", "guild", "instant", or "zone". Personal quests are signaled with nil. |
| 04:19.51 | [TM]Treaborne | if I call name from the quest like Im doing currently it will take more code to filter out things, but if I called domain and filtered for zone.. would that be zone quests or zone events |
| 04:20.40 | Ivnedar | I've never looked at domain, so not sure sorry |
| 04:20.53 | Ivnedar | You may have to pick quests at random and see what value you get |
| 04:21.08 | [TM]Treaborne | ok just its time to play and break it! heheh thanks Ill be back to let you know results |
| 04:21.11 | Ivnedar | pick some zone event quests, see what they say, pick some you don't want to see, see if they're blank |
| 04:21.19 | Ivnedar | good luck :) |
| 04:27.41 | [TM]Treaborne | so far so good still getting notifications, just need to find some instant adventure quests to track now heh |
| 04:28.09 | Ivnedar | queue up for an IA :D |
| 04:32.13 | [TM]Treaborne | next thing I want to do is make translations... Im thinking that might be a daunting task |
| 04:33.28 | Ivnedar | Inspect.System.Language() to get the player's current language, use that to index into an array of different language strings :D |
| 04:33.58 | Ivnedar | Unless you can take advantage of strings already in game and use the client's translations instead |
| 04:34.04 | [TM]Treaborne | g |
| 04:34.09 | [TM]Treaborne | oops wrong window lol |
| 04:35.23 | [TM]Treaborne | but would that in turn translate EN to their locale ? |
| 04:35.38 | [TM]Treaborne | or would I have to write the strings for every translation |
| 04:35.50 | Ivnedar | you'd have to supply the translated strings |
| 04:36.16 | Ivnedar | But if you're doing something like showing quest names, and the game already knows those names in each language, you can use those instead |
| 04:37.51 | [TM]Treaborne | can the names of all zones, shards, areas, be called from ingame using a command? for like making a ui that allows drilling down selections of them |
| 04:39.04 | Ivnedar | zones yes |
| 04:39.12 | Ivnedar | areas/scenes not easily |
| 04:40.02 | Ivnedar | Inspect.Zone.Detail(zoneid).name will give you the locale string for that zone |
| 05:04.35 | [TM]Treaborne | do commented out lines get skipped or do they still get processed when addons are used? |
| 05:04.53 | Ivnedar | skipped |
| 05:06.29 | Noshei | ovbiously they can have some impact on addon load times though, which does effect how long it takes a character to load |
| 05:10.53 | [TM]Treaborne | yea I want to try and limit as much as I can, so checking based on Inspect.Quest.Detail() for domain:Zone doesnt show the zone events so must be something else i guess |
| 05:13.59 | [TM]Treaborne | wonder if they have a special id for them, how do i return current quests I have while in game? |
| 05:14.10 | [TM]Treaborne | tried list but it gives me a hex |
| 05:14.12 | Ivnedar | Inspect.Quest.List() |
| 05:14.16 | Ivnedar | that's the id |
| 05:14.59 | Ivnedar | Inspect.Quest.Detail(Inspect.Quest.List()) if you want all the info as well |
| 05:15.17 | Ivnedar | takes the id list from .List and passes it into .Detail |
| 05:15.47 | [TM]Treaborne | ah ok so that has to be passed into detail |
| 05:16.40 | Ivnedar | assuming you want more than the id, yeah |
| 05:16.41 | [TM]Treaborne | it gave me another table 0x3xxxxxxx |
| 05:16.41 | [TM]Treaborne | not exact number but yea |
| 05:16.43 | Ivnedar | what are you doing with the result? |
| 05:17.01 | [TM]Treaborne | was trying to call it from the chat box |
| 05:17.11 | Ivnedar | you're printing out the address of the table of results then |
| 05:17.21 | Ivnedar | dump(Inspect.Quest.List()) |
| 05:17.23 | [TM]Treaborne | yea |
| 05:17.26 | [TM]Treaborne | k |
| 05:17.32 | Ivnedar | dump(Inspect.Quest.Detail(Inspect.Quest.List())) |
| 05:20.26 | [TM]Treaborne | ah |
| 05:22.12 | [TM]Treaborne | do addons have access to write to local files? they cant can they? |
| 05:22.25 | Ivnedar | nope |
| 05:22.39 | Ivnedar | you can save variables out to files controlled by the client, but you can't write to random files |
| 05:23.34 | [TM]Treaborne | is there a way to take the data collected from that quest inspect and spit it into a var then to a file? or do I need make a short addon for that |
| 05:23.55 | Ivnedar | you'd need an addon for that |
| 05:24.10 | Ivnedar | there's also the discovery data with a lot of that info in it on an ftp server |
| 05:24.24 | Ivnedar | ftp://ftp.trionworlds.com/rift/data/ |
| 05:24.29 | [TM]Treaborne | ah /discovery |
| 05:25.14 | [TM]Treaborne | thinking maybe that will have the quest tables in it? |
| 05:25.21 | [TM]Treaborne | dl'n now |
| 05:25.21 | Ivnedar | yeah, Quests.xml |
| 05:25.56 | Ivnedar | there's a python script in the carnage book addon to parse it and put the carnage tagged quests into an lua table |
| 05:26.39 | Ivnedar | if that's of any use as a starting point |
| 05:26.52 | [TM]Treaborne | yea carnages were filtered since they all started with name:"Carnage:" that was easy |
| 05:27.03 | Ivnedar | in english they do ;) |
| 05:29.48 | [TM]Treaborne | <PROTECTED> |
| 05:29.54 | [TM]Treaborne | the Type |
| 05:30.15 | [TM]Treaborne | now to figure out if that can be checked using inspect |
| 05:30.34 | Ivnedar | dump(Inspect.Quest.Detail("q31472DB69A872F9C")) |
| 05:30.56 | Ivnedar | the AddonId in the xml is the id you need when checking in game |
| 05:30.56 | [TM]Treaborne | ah ty that saved me at least 20mins of gears burning |
| 05:31.32 | [TM]Treaborne | would prolly help if i used an ID i have lol |
| 05:31.42 | Ivnedar | nah, wait a sec and run it again |
| 05:31.48 | Ivnedar | the client needed to pull it off the server |
| 05:31.58 | [TM]Treaborne | oh |
| 05:32.02 | [TM]Treaborne | nice |
| 05:32.36 | [TM]Treaborne | nothing for type http://puu.sh/ee2Fl/f5c64bc9c1.jpg |
| 05:32.47 | Ivnedar | some info is only available while you're on the quest, like coordinates, multi-stage objectives, etc |
| 05:32.59 | [TM]Treaborne | k |
| 05:33.14 | Ivnedar | But that's probably as much as there is for that one |
| 05:33.37 | Ivnedar | objective is where the extra stuff gets added in |
| 05:33.59 | Ivnedar | maybe all the ones you want to filter out have a tag of repeatable? |
| 05:34.31 | [TM]Treaborne | looking at /script dump(Inspect.Quest.Detail("q6F6ED1BB79EDD5D7")) |
| 05:34.37 | [TM]Treaborne | while in it |
| 05:35.40 | [TM]Treaborne | still no type in there... what about using the discovery thingy can that be called in any way |
| 05:35.51 | Ivnedar | not in game |
| 05:35.57 | [TM]Treaborne | bah lol |
| 05:36.58 | [TM]Treaborne | I really hate the idea of having to create a huge table of id's |
| 05:51.24 | [TM]Treaborne | wierd |
| 05:51.35 | [TM]Treaborne | q07C0A30C99494EED returns nil for domain |
| 05:51.58 | [TM]Treaborne | in the discovery log its a carnage with type kill |
| 05:52.40 | Ivnedar | hrrm, does it have a .tag? |
| 05:52.45 | [TM]Treaborne | checking |
| 05:52.59 | [TM]Treaborne | nil |
| 05:53.26 | [TM]Treaborne | does return on the detail: http://puu.sh/ee4VD/0e758c705a.jpg |
| 05:53.41 | Ivnedar | *nod* |
| 05:53.43 | [TM]Treaborne | wonder if all carnages are nil on domain |
| 05:57.02 | [TM]Treaborne | appears so assuming I dont have q15CC359B1BB0A231 completed yet |
| 05:57.38 | [TM]Treaborne | so zone events are in domain area, instant in domain instant, and since carnages are personal that makes sense they are nil |
| 06:01.12 | [TM]Treaborne | wow just got disco'd form rift LOL |
| 06:06.09 | [TM]Treaborne | I still havent figured out what quests fall into the zone domain, appears like the zone events are in area though |
| 06:29.58 | [TM]Treaborne | how would I check for nil? |
| 06:30.57 | [TM]Treaborne | would it still be "nil" |
| 06:31.13 | Ivnedar | == nil |
| 06:31.56 | [TM]Treaborne | string.find(iqd.domain, ==nil) |
| 06:32.14 | Ivnedar | iqd.domain == nil |
| 06:36.34 | [TM]Treaborne | throws an error in find |
| 06:36.50 | Ivnedar | nil isn't a string, it's nil |
| 06:36.55 | [TM]Treaborne | yea |
| 06:38.02 | Ivnedar | if iqd.domain ~= nil then |
| 06:59.52 | [TM]Treaborne | w00t got it |
| 07:00.27 | [TM]Treaborne | removed string find and looks like its working now |
| 07:00.42 | Ivnedar | well, I'm off home, bbl :) |
| 07:00.49 | [TM]Treaborne | thanks for all the help |

| 07:16.30 | bctrainers | Does ZorbaBeta still come around to here? |
| 07:33.56 | bctrainers | Am curious to know if the addon API could be expanded to include the usage of http://chat-us.riftgame.com:8080/chatservice/shard/list and http://chat-us.riftgame.com:8080/chatservice/zoneevent/list?shardId=1702 |
| 07:34.10 | bctrainers | I know it doesnt have any sort of remote server viewing / posting support |
| 07:34.35 | bctrainers | but would be curious to know if the API could be expanded to monitor that JSON file and allow clients to be fed that information |

| 23:48.30 | Ivnedar | zen(k) will call the function zen with the parameter k |
| 23:48.42 | Ivnedar | zen[k] will return the element of table zen with key k |
| 23:52.07 | Treaborne | Error: ZET/main.lua:376: bad argument #2 to 'find' (string expected, got nil) |
| 23:52.15 | Treaborne | doesnt like zen[k] LOL |
| 23:52.49 | Treaborne | should I be using some form of for k,v in pairs solution? |
| 23:52.58 | Ivnedar | if zen doesn't have a key of k, then it will return nil |
| 23:53.10 | Treaborne | ok sorry |
| 23:53.53 | Treaborne | lets day data contains A Clash of Power, how do I look for that samething inside of the zen table |
| 23:54.26 | Ivnedar | k = "A Clash of Power" |
| 23:54.28 | Ivnedar | zen[k] |
| 23:54.43 | Ivnedar | or zen["A Clash of Power"] |
| 23:58.18 | Treaborne | print(data) print(k) |
| 23:58.24 | Treaborne | returns nil for data |
| 23:58.44 | Treaborne | but k has a string in it |
| 23:59.28 | Treaborne | so maybe it was data throwing the nil error all along? |
