| 13:04.54 | Naifu | is there a way to rotate a canvas? |
| 13:11.39 | Ivnedar | you can build a transform matrix for it and pass that into SetShape |
| 13:14.05 | Ivnedar | if you want to rotate around the centre, you'll need to translate before and after, origin is at one of the corners |
| 13:14.43 | Naifu | doesn't the matrix only work for certain fill styles? |
| 13:15.23 | Ivnedar | yeah |
| 13:16.31 | Ivnedar | hrrm, what are the fill styles now? |
| 13:16.35 | Naifu | ok i get the stuff with the matrix and calculating the angle isn't a problem. but if i set a path I don't see any way to rotate that path |
| 13:16.51 | Naifu | basically rotate a path with stroke but no fill |
| 13:17.01 | Naifu | that's probably the easiest way to describe what I want to do |
| 13:17.05 | Ivnedar | oh, I guess you're expected to rotate the path yourself |
| 13:17.30 | Ivnedar | setup your rotation matrix, feed each point into it and set the path to the result |
| 13:17.50 | Naifu | oh fuck jeeeeeeeeez I'll then probably stick to a texture much simpler :D |
| 13:18.07 | Naifu | rotating that as a fill style with a matrix is easy |
| 13:18.19 | Ivnedar | textures and gradients you can't manipulate yourself, so the matrix transforms are needed |
| 13:18.33 | Ivnedar | but if all the data is in your own code, you could transform them yourself |
| 13:19.08 | Naifu | yeah but I hate stuff like that. I hated geometry when I was in school 30 years ago and still hate it now :D |
| 13:20.06 | Ivnedar | I have some old LibTransform code if it's of any use |
| 13:20.20 | Ivnedar | bunch of helper functions if the built in ones aren't there |
| 13:20.33 | Ivnedar | last looked at in 2013 though :D |

| 13:22.17 | Ivnedar | silly example addon that was animating a nyancat and rotating it :P |
| 13:23.26 | Ivnedar | it's rotating texture canvas, but the library has a function for transforming an x,y point too |
| 13:26.18 | Ivnedar | lol, the nyan addon still works, I should post that somewhere |

| 13:30.38 | Ivnedar | if you want the complete silly thing :) |
| 13:30.40 | Ivnedar | 22kb |
| 13:32.23 | Naifu | thanks mate I'll have a look at it. Probably gonna put that down the priority list and stick with simple lines for waypoints on my map addon |
| 13:33.43 | Ivnedar | Finding all my old addon snippets now |
| 13:33.53 | Ivnedar | One of them derailed our ID run for hours |
| 13:34.19 | Ivnedar | All it was was an image of a kitten that when you clicked on it, switched images with the kitten being scared by a glass falling next to it |
| 13:35.01 | Naifu | LOL |
| 13:35.56 | Naifu | I remember when we were playing poker in raids in wow classic :D |
| 13:36.14 | Naifu | let's say we didn't kill much until the addon was banned from our raids hehehhee |
| 13:36.19 | Ivnedar | :D |
| 13:36.59 | Ivnedar | That's when you release an addon for raid leaders to run that alerts you to anyone who sends poker addon messages :D |
| 13:37.25 | Naifu | I can't imagine why you would do that. I'd say "sorry not possible with the current API" ROFL |
| 13:37.59 | Ivnedar | lol |
| 13:39.16 | Naifu | Well in Rift "not possible" is actually standard response #1 in most cases :( |
| 13:56.14 | Naifu | does your addon carnagebook include coordinates for the quests or just which ones you are missing? |
| 14:00.56 | Ivnedar | just the ones you're missing |
| 14:01.09 | Ivnedar | it's a massage of the data in the Quests.xml discovery file |
| 14:01.13 | Ivnedar | filtered on type carnage |
| 14:01.55 | Naifu | ok similar to what i do nkQuestTracker. Was hoping somebody would have made an effort at compiling the locs of quests. |
| 14:02.21 | Ivnedar | I started doing it, had an addon running recording the coords given on quests as they appear in game |
| 14:02.29 | Ivnedar | ended up seeing it as too high maint |
| 14:02.49 | Naifu | yeah manually compiling ingame data is killing me. |
| 14:03.19 | Naifu | have already written about the same amount of java code for importing and transforming the xml file like actually lua code for my addons |
| 14:04.05 | Naifu | What I probably will do is parse the quest and npc xml file and at least match the zones |
| 14:09.20 | Ivnedar | carnagebook has the python script with it that I use to dump quests if it's of any use |
| 14:09.35 | Ivnedar | if you already have something in js, all good |
| 14:12.27 | Ivnedar | complete with subzone fixups since people stopped putting them into the discovery file :P |
| 14:13.05 | Naifu | So you dump the quest info from ingame? |
| 14:13.19 | Naifu | Noticed that a LOT of info is missing in the xml files lately |
| 14:13.20 | Ivnedar | nah, discovery xml |
| 14:13.42 | Naifu | ah ok I see |
| 14:13.49 | Ivnedar | they stopped adding scene to quests in xml around the prelude to nightmare tide |
| 14:14.34 | Naifu | some have it some haven't. And tbh why can't we simply get that info ingame. I hate going the xml file route and building huge lua files for ingame db |
| 14:14.48 | Naifu | So much effort for stuff which should be easy to implement in the api |
| 14:15.08 | Naifu | had to start compressing the item db for nkAdvisor cause the size simply got out of hand |
| 14:15.37 | Naifu | Then the compressing produced performance warnings for some so I had to optimize ... no wonder so few addons are being written by now |
| 14:24.07 | Ivnedar | It'd be nice to be able to have sharded load on demand data files |
| 14:24.19 | Ivnedar | so you load in stuff as needed instead of everything at startup |
| 14:24.53 | Naifu | yep |
| 14:25.17 | Naifu | What I did to somewhat optimize is a combination of loadstring with zipped data |
| 14:25.31 | Naifu | That way I got the data size down by 75% and only unzip on demand what I need |

| 23:25.30 | seebs | Yeah, the amount of data needed to implement something which tracks crafting quest requirements turned out to be sort of annoying. |
| 23:25.58 | seebs | Lucky me, someone came along and submitted an update to the addon so I didn't have to level someone to 65/450/whatever. |
| 23:28.00 | Ivnedar | woot |
| 23:28.26 | Ivnedar | What would be cool is if the discovery data was available in game as a global table! |
| 23:28.51 | Ivnedar | there would be much love from addon devs I'm sure |
| 23:29.59 | Ivnedar | even more so if it was indexed on a bunch of fields |
