| 00:00.16 | tingle | i want to cod emyself but i want to know what to do |
| 00:01.35 | zenzelezz | your questions so far all seem very unspecific |
| 00:01.56 | tingle | uh |
| 00:02.30 | tingle | ok do you want me to describe exactly what i expect the addon to do |
| 00:02.48 | zenzelezz | not for my part, I wouldn't know enough to help anyway |
| 00:03.21 | zenzelezz | but it sounds like you've decided to start your coding with something fairly complex |
| 00:04.46 | tingle | well ill typ it anyway maby you can tell me where to start |
| 00:07.40 | tingle | its supose to be a leveling guid, that uses mapnotes and displayes the current quest that your suppose to do in a little frame window, the frame window itsself should have a small button where anther window shows up underneath it with a description of what exaclty your supose to do or details or notes, |

| 00:08.47 | tingle | for example you first get into the game,it shows the first mapnote of where to get your first quest, then when you accept it it shows a mapnote of the next place where to go (ether where to do the quest or where to turn it in or get another one) |
| 00:09.06 | tingle | and so on all the way up to level 70 |
| 00:09.26 | tingle | any ideas where i should start and what to do |
| 00:10.33 | tingle | or what the best way wouldbe to do such a thing |
| 00:10.51 | foxlit | 1. Figure out how to show a mapnote at desired location with desired text. |

| 00:13.17 | tingle | my gues would be a event handler that updates your map with a mapnote and deletes the old one and places the correct text into the frame |
| 00:15.02 | tingle | ok now wouldnt that be a freakin long code for every quest and step up to level 70? |
| 00:15.37 | kahdgarxi | yeah, no kidding |
| 00:15.52 | kahdgarxi | there wouldn't be any way to stay reasonable with memory usage there, would there? |
| 00:17.33 | tingle | well would there be a way to make it shorter? |
| 00:21.53 | tingle | ? |
| 00:24.34 | foxlit | Yes, there would. |
| 00:24.40 | foxlit | 2. Figure out when you need to display what notes. |
| 00:24.57 | foxlit | 3. Store notes in data structures rather than code. |
| 00:25.01 | foxlit | 4. Load data structures dynamically |

| 00:26.13 | kahdgarxi | foxlit- true, but wouldn't that be an enormous memory leak? |
| 00:26.56 | foxlit | Well, no. |
| 00:27.26 | foxlit | Assume you're going to be covering about 10k quests |
| 00:28.58 | foxlit | You can probably get away with around 255 chars / quest |
| 00:29.39 | foxlit | Of actual text -- can substitute action verbs with some sort of integer action id |

| 00:37.34 | foxlit | I have a few ideas, I haven't tried using that specific approach that before. |
| 00:38.48 | tingle | wanna be partners ^^ my ideas and quest knowlage and you help code it |
| 00:39.21 | tingle | and then sell the addon to some power leveling service ^^ |
| 00:39.55 | zenzelezz | the power leveling guys probably already know how to do their job :-o |
| 00:41.36 | tingle | ye aprobaly true but imagin this addon would be one of the most powerfull addons for world of warcraft... it would be much more afficant than any leveling guid |
| 00:42.26 | foxlit | It would, essentially, be a levelling guide within WoW |
| 00:42.29 | Sstixrud | foxlit is there a way to create/clone an existing actionbar's button/icon layout easily without using any of the 120 default button ids? |
| 00:42.56 | bleetah | I’ve worked out… that if I stick my left arm in my right ear, I can electrocute myself… |
| 00:43.07 | bleetah | Terminally. |
| 00:43.16 | bleetah | I can do it at a moment’s notice. Just say the word. |
| 00:43.31 | foxlit | Inherit from whatever they're inheriting from, and override the handlers that use up the id |
| 00:43.36 | bleetah | I think I’ll go and hide. |
| 00:44.19 | tingle | so... feel on working on such a project, |
| 00:44.31 | Sstixrud | i.e. just reuse the same button ids? |
| 00:44.57 | foxlit | What are you making, Sstixrud? |
| 00:46.26 | tingle | foxlit, would you help with this addon |
| 00:46.54 | Thrae | Anyone here familiar with Secure templates? |
| 00:47.00 | Sstixrud | I want to clone an existing actionbar, one that is tied to /myaddon config the user would click on the buttons and the config frame would change depending on what attributes are set to the button.. The problem I have run into is I can use PreClick to configure buttons but the spell casts when I do |
| 00:47.28 | Sstixrud | I would rather not have the spell cast when the user is configuring buttons so one option is to create a cloned bar that looks the same but doesnt actully CastSpell |
| 00:48.00 | foxlit | tingle: I could, maybe, write the general code handling quests/notes; it all depends on how the API works in this despect. |
| 00:48.23 | Thrae | Sstixrud: Copy ActionBarFrame.xml and make it draggable |
| 00:49.47 | Sstixrud | hmmm |
| 00:50.32 | Mike-N-Go | [Horn of the Black War Wolf][Whistle of the Black War Raptor] or [Black War Kodo]? |
| 00:51.38 | Sstixrud | THrae ok, but can I layout the icons on the buttons without attaching the actull spell? That way when the user clicks the button it will trigger my <PreClick> but not actully cast the spell? |
| 00:52.03 | Sstixrud | i.e. is there a SetAttribute or some such that lets me remove the Action but keep the icon? |
| 00:52.31 | Sstixrud | forgive my newb questions, still learning :) |
| 00:56.49 | foxlit | Icons and attributes aren't generally connected |

| 02:16.05 | seebs | Argh! |
| 02:16.32 | seebs | The mail inbox event seems to be useless, as it's totally generic and provides no information beyond, possibly, what button's been clicked. |
| 02:19.46 | Tain | Holy ouch. A woman in Brazil gave birth to a 17 pound baby. |
| 02:22.49 | Tain | Mailbox stuff is not simple. It's a pain in the ass |
| 02:23.21 | Tain | My first addon was a mail auto-opener, retreive all items. |
| 02:23.47 | Tain | Usually worked ok, but was a pain in the ass. |
| 02:26.53 | seebs | I'm actually doing something sorta like that. |
| 02:27.19 | seebs | So maybe you can help: I want to grab {items or money or both} from the first item in the mail. I want to then check another once that's completed. |
| 02:27.28 | seebs | What on EARTH do I check for to find out that it's been done? |
| 02:28.14 | seebs | It turns out that the mail inbox event is NOT the one I want. |

| 02:44.25 | Tain | seebs: The best way is actually to start with the last item in the mailbox so you can count down to 1. |
| 02:44.32 | seebs | ... |
| 02:44.34 | Tain | There's no easy way to tell if you've successfully done it. |
| 02:45.03 | Tain | What I did with items was... well a little hackish but it was the only way I could figure to be really reliable. |
| 02:45.05 | seebs | Well, that's actually quite elegant, but doesn't TakeInboxItem(x) still fail if a previous request is still in process? |
| 02:45.39 | Tain | I checked through my empty bag slots. When I found the first empty bag slot (the place where the next item would be) I waited for a bag update event and then checked to see if something was in that slot. |
| 02:45.49 | Tain | If the slot was no longer empty I went on to the next mailbox item. |
| 02:46.16 | seebs | Oh, yeek. |
| 02:46.22 | bleetah | But the words get stuck on the tip of your tongue |
| 02:46.25 | seebs | And yet, strangely probably reliable. |
| 02:46.31 | bleetah | oops, sorry for the spam :/ |
| 02:46.35 | Tain | That is really slow however as it takes a good second for it to really show up in your bag |
| 02:47.20 | seebs | Well, yeah, but so far as I can tell, you HAVE to do that to be sure that you actually got the item. |
| 02:47.52 | Tain | I also had *never* gotten things working when I had a mailbox item with both money and and an item in the same message. But that's a pretty rare case I think. |
| 02:48.25 | seebs | Spoken like someone who never sends his enchanter an item plus an enchanting budget. :) |
| 02:48.33 | Tain | hah yeah I suppose so |
| 02:49.02 | Tain | I was really more worried about auction items and money than anything else. But it bugged the hell out of me that I could never get that working right. |
| 02:49.27 | seebs | Yeah. |
| 03:05.48 | seebs | You're right, though, that counting backwards simplifies the task immensely. Thanks. |
| 03:08.05 | seebs | Blar. Now I have an obvious stupid bug. As in, it's obvious that it's stupid, not that I have any idea what my bug is. |
| 03:08.18 | seebs | But for some reason, TakeInboxMoney(48) does not obtain the money in slot 48. |
| 03:11.08 | seebs | Hmm. Closer; "/sm get expired" now gets about half the expired auctions in my mailbox, apparently randomly. |
| 03:18.56 | seebs | Hmmm! It's EXACTLY half the time that it fails, it would appear. |
| 03:26.52 | seebs | Well, I have code that works for objects, but I'm utterly ashamed of it. |
| 03:29.19 | seebs | Oh, MAN! I found it. |
| 03:29.30 | seebs | Problem: I am a C programmer. |
| 03:29.44 | seebs | if (SimpleMail.money) then TakeInboxMoney(slot) end |
| 03:30.03 | seebs | I was generating spurious TakeInboxMoney events that corresponded to no-money, and getting updates when they succeeded. |

| 04:35.40 | Asheyla | it works perfectly |
| 04:35.59 | Asheyla | but if it returns the 1st entry, which had been cleared by ClearTable |
| 04:36.03 | Asheyla | it fails miserably |
| 04:36.39 | kaso | hmm |
| 04:36.42 | kaso | interesting |

| 05:04.07 | Asheyla | this is truth |
| 05:04.20 | kaso | Asheyla bare in mind lua's Garbage collection is pretty good in 5.1 nowadays, wasting memory isnt a huge huge issue |
| 05:04.26 | Asheyla | yeah |

| 05:46.51 | [Wobin] | Doesn't it mean you can use the turn ins to grind shatar up to the end of friendly? |
| 05:46.59 | [Wobin] | but aldor or scryer to exalted? |
| 05:47.56 | [Wobin] | ie, in your grind for aldor/scryer, you can get shatar to 5999 friendly |
| 05:48.48 | zenzelezz | that's how I'm reading point 2, but I'm not sure if point 3 is saying that you get rep with Sha'tar past that too, or if they're only talking about Aldor/Scryer |
| 05:49.04 | zenzelezz | from the turn-in quests to Aldor/Scryer I mean |
| 05:50.04 | [Wobin] | from what I reading, you can get shatar rep while grinding aldor/scryer to exalted |
| 05:50.11 | [Wobin] | but only up to that 5999 friendly |
| 05:51.29 | zenzelezz | hm, I guess... perhaps it's just my opinion that maxing out friendly isn't "a lot" that's confusing me =) |
| 05:53.30 | [Wobin] | I think they were referring to the amount gained with each turnin |
| 05:53.38 | [Wobin] | 150 is 'a lot' compared to 12 |
| 05:53.56 | zenzelezz | yeah, that would make sense |
| 05:54.10 | zenzelezz | I shouldn't read much this time of night |
| 06:01.16 | Legorol | I hear there is a working Decursive around, what's that about? |
| 06:01.53 | Cairenn | depends what you mean by "working" |
| 06:02.54 | Cairenn | I've heard that there is a new one too, but it doesn't have any of the functionality of the old one that was (a large part of) the reason why Blizz locked stuff down |
| 06:03.04 | *** join/#wowi-lounge KarlThePagan (n=andross@66.225.8.145) |
| 06:04.11 | [Wobin] | Legorol: It's on wowace.com/files if you want to ahve a look |
| 06:04.24 | [Wobin] | I've not been in a situation yet which requires it, so I've yet to try it =) |
| 06:04.47 | Legorol | thanks Wobin for the tip |
| 06:05.11 | Legorol | i found a "new" Decursive on CG, it turns out to be just a grid of unit frames with status-based colouring, so you can play whack-a-mole |
| 06:05.28 | [Wobin] | Like... Grid? |
| 06:05.31 | Legorol | i'll check out the wowace one as well |
| 06:05.36 | Legorol | Wobin: yeah like Grid+Clique |
| 06:05.54 | [Wobin] | hehe when will people learn decursive is about the single button press =P |
| 06:06.12 | Cairenn | [Wobin]: does this one actually do everything the old one did, or is it like the one on CG? (the one on CG is the one I was aware of) |
| 06:06.35 | [Wobin] | Cairenn: I'm not sure, lemme see if I can grab the link for the thread |
| 06:06.51 | Legorol | it's the one on CG, same addon |
| 06:06.51 | Cairenn | just wondered if perhaps you'd read the description is all :) |
| 06:06.55 | Legorol | no it doesn't do what the old one did |
| 06:07.02 | Legorol | so i'm relieved |
| 06:07.17 | Legorol | yet another "zomg Decursive" that turns out to be fake |
| 06:07.25 | Cairenn | good to hear |
| 06:07.26 | Legorol | calling an AddOn Decursive doesn't make it one :o) |
| 06:07.54 | Legorol | it's funny though how people work... lot of posters are touting it as "Decursive is back" |
| 06:07.57 | [Wobin] | oh hang on |
| 06:08.00 | [Wobin] | aye |
| 06:08.01 | Legorol | i guess they don't quite understand the subtle difference |
| 06:08.05 | [Wobin] | hehe |
| 06:08.20 | [Wobin] | Yeah, I don't actually need Decursive yet, so I didn't read anything into the thread |
| 06:08.22 | [Wobin] | http://www.wowace.com/forums/index.php?topic=4328.0 |
| 06:08.24 | Cairenn | because the person that manages to figure out how to get around the lock-down that Blizz put in place and makes it function the way the old one did - will be the bane of the UI community |
| 06:08.31 | [Wobin] | it's true |
| 06:08.42 | Legorol | Cairenn: that person will be summarily fed to bunnies :o) |
| 06:08.56 | Cairenn | since at that point Blizz is likely to say "F@#$ this" and lock it down *completely* |
| 06:08.56 | Legorol | tbh, there may very well be holes in the UI security that are not found yet |
| 06:09.02 | Legorol | but i'm pretty sure they'd get patched |
| 06:09.13 | [Wobin] | I think this one, just selects the spell for you |
| 06:09.19 | Legorol | i suspect if there is any hole, it's a small one that's easily pluggable |
| 06:09.22 | [Wobin] | so you don't have to like, set up a clique binding |
| 06:09.30 | Cairenn | no more Lua coding allowed whatsoever, it'll only be xml graphical skinning/re-arranging, like EQ et al |
| 06:09.35 | [Wobin] | >< |
| 06:09.38 | [Wobin] | Death of WoW =( |
| 06:09.41 | Cairenn | (the end of my statement) |
| 06:09.42 | Legorol | Wobin, you still have something similar to clique in this Decursive |
| 06:09.50 | [Wobin] | yeah |
| 06:09.52 | Legorol | you have to use click, shift+click and ctrl+click for the right spell |
| 06:10.14 | Legorol | Cairenn: i do see what you are trying to say |
| 06:10.27 | Legorol | i hope that a) if there is a hole it won't be found by a moron but by someone else first |
| 06:10.36 | Legorol | b) it's a small enough one and Blizzard reacts kindly to it |
| 06:10.43 | Legorol | but i do very well see the danger in a moron finding a hole |
| 06:10.50 | [Wobin] | or someone finds it and tells slouken before making an addon |
| 06:11.06 | Cairenn | *nod* |
| 06:11.14 | Legorol | that happened many times already, and i hope it stays that way |
| 06:11.45 | Legorol | fortunately, so far it seems that people smart enough to find holes are also smart enough to report it |
| 06:11.51 | Legorol | but i have seen an exception or two before |
| 06:12.22 | Legorol | a long time ago there was a way to get information out of WoW via a debugging API call that was left in there unintentionally |
| 06:12.34 | Legorol | the first time i came across it was in a working addon that automated something, i can't remember what |
| 06:13.38 | Cairenn | ~endofworld |

| 15:26.50 | kaso | the orginal rsp is here, http://wow.curse-gaming.com/en/files/details/748/flagrsp/ but i dont think its 2.0 compient |
| 15:27.03 | kaso | Theres a replacement called MyRolePlay iirc |
| 15:27.31 | Jebster | Well with my gatherer one i needed the beta version for it to work, so is there somewhere i can get the beta one? |
| 15:27.43 | kaso | try this |
| 15:27.43 | kaso | http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info4990-MyRolePlay.html |
| 15:27.47 | kaso | or this |
| 15:27.52 | kaso | http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info5767-ImmersionRPAlpha2.html |

| 15:41.48 | Malivil | <.< |
| 15:41.51 | Jebster | Ok |
| 15:42.07 | Jebster | You people know of a mod that shows the locations of every starter quest? |
| 15:42.20 | Jebster | so i can find some? |
| 15:42.33 | tedrock | sounds like someone is trying to get rep :P |
| 15:42.53 | Jebster | rep? |
| 15:43.13 | kaso | going back and doing lowbie quests is what alot of people are doing for rep atm :> |
| 15:43.47 | Jebster | Whats rep? rep with each faction? |
| 15:44.10 | tedrock | works nicely. you just need to know who gives you the quests because when you are way higher then starting level they don't show an ! over there heads |
| 15:44.30 | kaso | yes, like UC, thunderbluff etc rep |
| 15:44.40 | kaso | now that quests get full rep no-matter what level you are |
| 15:46.14 | tedrock | yah i went and did a bunch of the level 1 darn quests. found a bug too |
| 15:46.20 | YammYgirlcoding | guys!! u know any addon that auto starts melee if u get attacked ? |
| 15:46.26 | Malivil | Not possible |
| 15:46.40 | Malivil | Requires a keypress |
| 15:46.46 | tedrock | the dream eater quest cannot be completed by draenei and BE. some GM reported it for me |
| 15:46.51 | Jebster | So is there an addon that shows the starter locations of most quests? just so i know which areas are better for me to go too |
| 15:48.02 | Malivil | Anyone know which is better for a horde character, Scryers or Aldor? |
| 15:48.14 | YammYgirlcoding | I used to have one before, blizz has remove this function? |

| 15:52.04 | tedrock | other then that you'd wanna get some map note addon that let you add your own dots to teh map and go to something like thottbot and look up low level quests and mark them on hte map yourself |
| 15:55.23 | Jebster | Cool, whats this map note addon? gove me a site with it on please? |

| 18:27.43 | tingle | is there a way to make a database useing something like exel? and make a addon read out of that tabel? |
| 18:28.55 | tingle | ? |
| 18:30.19 | tingle | or how do i creat a database? |
| 18:30.32 | kaso | sorta |
| 18:31.11 | tingle | sorta what? |
| 18:31.18 | kaso | I mean, wow's saved variables are based around tables, however they need to be properly constructed lua tables, not just some random excel thing, there might be some sorta converters around |
| 18:31.51 | tingle | well heres what im wanting to do |
| 18:32.37 | tingle | considering it takes about 5-6k quests to get to level 70 (im makeing a leveling guid addon) i need a tabel with quest name, quest locs, description |
| 18:32.56 | tingle | what would i best use |
| 18:34.00 | kaso | do you know php? |
| 18:34.06 | tingle | like forum |
| 18:34.11 | tingle | never used it |
| 18:34.15 | kaso | hm damn |
| 18:34.21 | tingle | now remember this |
| 18:34.49 | kaso | i know theres a php-lua script around, otherwise you'd have to write some sort script yourself that can export a database into a lua table |
| 18:34.59 | tingle | it needs event handelers that changes the current quest and its infos after completing the last step |
| 18:35.21 | tingle | how can i do that |
| 18:35.59 | rjaym | if i were you tingle, i'd open ultra-edit or similar, and take a look at the database in question, see if it's something you think you can parse |
| 18:36.42 | rjaym | and before that try to find out if the standard in which these databases are written is documented, perhaps on a lua site |
| 18:37.04 | tingle | ok i dont understand the work "parse" ultra-edit" |
| 18:37.08 | tingle | word* |
| 18:37.14 | Malivil | hes not reading a table |
| 18:37.16 | Malivil | hes making it |
| 18:37.32 | rjaym | same thing, if he's going to read it, he still needs to understand how to build it |
| 18:37.48 | rjaym | unless he can find a standard on how the database is constructed |
| 18:37.53 | rjaym | or code that already does it |
| 18:38.03 | Malivil | Hes making the database |
| 18:38.07 | Malivil | Is what i meant to say |
| 18:38.36 | tingle | how does this sound: |
| 18:39.17 | tingle | a data base that has info in it and a lua that gets the info out of the line it calls for and puts the info in the correct frame |
| 18:39.33 | tingle | for example for the database: |
| 18:39.43 | rjaym | lua can't read files from disk from what i've heard, only the saved variables |
| 18:39.51 | tingle | oh |
| 18:40.04 | tingle | then how would i make a database that sorta lokks liek this: |
| 18:41.09 | tingle | 1a: quest name 1b: clear and update of the current mapnote 1c: quest detail and then again for 2a 2b 2c.. ect |
| 18:41.17 | tingle | thats how i was thinking of building it |
| 18:43.09 | tingle | is it possible to do such a thing |

| 18:53.35 | tingle | damm |
| 18:53.38 | tingle | im out of ideas |
| 18:54.02 | tingle | then instead of makeing a database that doesnt work anyway how can i do such a larg thing like i said erlier |
| 18:54.27 | kaso | whatcha mean ? |
| 18:55.11 | tingle | yea |
| 18:55.17 | tingle | what i just typed up erlier |
| 18:55.21 | tingle | dont you remember |
| 18:55.37 | kaso | 1a: quest name 1b: clear and.... ? |
| 18:55.41 | tingle | 1a: quest name 1b: clear and update of the current mapnote 1c: quest detail and then again for 2a 2b 2c.. ect |
| 18:55.52 | tingle | yea |
| 18:56.40 | kaso | whatcha mean for 1b? |
| 18:57.19 | tingle | well i want mapnotes that tell you where to go next and of coars when the next step comes the last mapnote needs to get deleted |
| 18:57.25 | tingle | its a leveling guid for example |
| 18:58.20 | tingle | when you first go into the game with a level 1 character the first step shows up in the frame and int he detail box it tells you what to do, like go get your first quest, and it shows the loc as a mapnot where to get the first quest |
| 18:58.55 | tingle | then once you did that and accept the quest it all changes and a mapnote shows up where to complete the quest |
| 18:59.14 | tingle | and so on untill 70 |
| 19:00.23 | kaso | I'd choose something like this |
| 19:00.26 | kaso | http://www.pastey.net/5602 |
| 19:01.28 | tingle | that as a function? |
| 19:01.41 | kaso | thats a table, sorting the data for the various quests |
| 19:01.55 | tingle | ah ok |
| 19:02.30 | kaso | so in that table you have the quest's name, is description it's map coords, etc ,etc |
| 19:02.40 | tingle | well howq to i get the certain things to go into the frame |
| 19:02.47 | tingle | well wait |
| 19:02.56 | tingle | not cords, mapnotes |
| 19:03.07 | kaso | As in, using the addon MapNotes? |
| 19:03.45 | tingle | well not certainly i could build the mapnotes into my addon, but it needs something that deletes all mapnotes and add new ones every quest |
| 19:04.04 | kaso | Ok, you have two real opitions. |
| 19:04.27 | kaso | 1) Make your addon depend on Mapnotes and use thier API to show the infomation on the map |
| 19:04.39 | kaso | 2) write your own "MapNoting" code |

| 19:10.50 | kaso | hehe, well, i'd have to think about that, what you're proposing is a rather large addon |
| 19:12.19 | tingle | well all you would have to do is code and make it and tell me where to put the differnt information, thenn ill do that up ot level 70 |
| 19:13.43 | tingle | or not |
| 19:14.02 | tingle | ? |
| 19:14.02 | Sstixrud | silly question... if ; is not required at the end of lines why do it at all? :) |
| 19:14.15 | kaso | because its pretty |
| 19:14.52 | kaso | "allows neater code" |
| 19:14.52 | kaso | but i dont use it myself |
| 19:14.52 | Cairenn | ease of reading |
| 19:14.52 | Sstixrud | Not required = ugly in my opinion |
| 19:14.52 | kaso | leftover from other programming languages |
| 19:14.52 | Sstixrud | hmm I just dont see how tis easier to read |
| 19:15.05 | kaso | when youve read C and java and whatnot where ; are needed then you get used to them |
| 19:15.35 | Sstixrud | Python is the only other lang I have used to a signifcant degree |
| 19:15.37 | Tain | People are familiar with it from other languages. It's more of an issue when you're switching back and forth between different languages. |
| 19:15.46 | tingle | kaso what say you |
| 19:16.20 | tingle | or at least help me code what your thinking of |
| 19:16.22 | Cairenn | and depending on the complexity of your code, and thus how long each "line" is, believe me, it makes it easier to read |
| 19:16.25 | Sstixrud | that makes sense, i'll continue to not use ; then... if for no other reason then to give C coders heart burn :) |
| 19:16.38 | Cairenn | lol |
| 19:16.42 | kaso | Im not really willing to start another addon at the moment |

| 19:30.37 | Sstixrud | Would there be any reason to use PLAYER_AURAS_CHANGED instead of always using UNIT_AURA in a situation where the player and other units need to be acted on? |

| 19:31.56 | kaso | i beleive some things trigger p_a_c and not u_a, like weapon buffs, stances etc |

| 19:35.32 | kaso | that aint a weapon buff or a stance, why would it be ? |
| 19:35.35 | Sstixrud | ill go buy a sharping stone and see if that triggers it as well |
| 19:35.37 | kaso | wouldnt |
| 19:35.38 | Shadowed | He means stuff like sharpening stones |
| 19:35.45 | tingle | i was thinking per step add the mapnote to that quest and when your done with that quest it removes all mapnotes and adds the mapnote of the next step |
| 19:36.12 | tingle | know what i mean |
| 19:37.19 | kaso | tingle, really, the addon you're describing is not a small amount of work, developers tend only to be particular willing to put work in when its something they themselves want to use etc. |
| 19:37.52 | Cairenn | tingle: I have a question for you - this whole getting to 70 in 9 days, what the heck are you talking about? legitimate within Blizz's rules, or botting |

| 22:51.24 | kaso | not quite |
| 22:51.55 | Sstixrud | trying to decide if I can just use UnitBuff or if I need to use both.. not sure of the differences |
| 22:52.04 | kaso | UnitBuff doesnt have those filters, its GetPlayerBuff that has the filters |
| 22:53.27 | Sstixrud | I dont understand? |
| 22:53.31 | kaso | ok, well |
| 22:53.46 | kaso | GetPlayerBuffX functions |
| 22:54.08 | kaso | they return details about Debuffs and buffs |
| 22:54.35 | kaso | if you want the first buff you do GetPlayerBuffName(GetPlayerBuff(1,"HELPFUL")) |
| 22:54.51 | kaso | if you want the second debuff you do GetPlayerBuffName(GetPlayerBuff(2,"HARMFUL")) |
| 22:55.37 | tingle | ok can someone explane to me what inherits="OptionsButtonTemplate" does or means |
| 22:55.59 | Sstixrud | oh duh! I see what nither UnitDebuff or UnitBuff has harmful, helpful, passive :) |
| 22:56.16 | Sstixrud | I understand.. sorry for being dense :) |
| 22:56.39 | tingle | me^^? |
| 22:57.02 | kaso | tingle that means that that frame inherits it's behavour from the OptionsButtonTemplate |
| 22:57.22 | zenzelezz | tingle, don't get me wrong, but not everyone in this channel is talking to you all the time... you'll notice there are several others talking to each other ;) |
| 22:57.30 | Sstixrud | GetPlayer* won't be very useful to me as my mod needs to operate on multiple types of units player, partyN, raidN, Target etc.. |
| 22:57.41 | tingle | are there other things i can put in there |
| 22:58.06 | kaso | then ofc you'll have to use the Unit(De)Buff functions, which imo are nicer :> |
| 22:58.38 | tingle | or better said what does the optionsbuttontemplate do |
| 22:59.03 | Sstixrud | Tingle: I recommend you read http://www.wowwiki.com in detail, I spent a few days going over that content before things began to come clear.. its actully quicker in the long run to do that then to learn by trial and error asking questions here. |
| 22:59.36 | tingle | im useing the website but it doesnt explane that |
| 22:59.42 | Sstixrud | also http://fara.webeddie.com/frames/frame1.html |
| 22:59.51 | Sstixrud | that site will explain most of your frame related questions |
| 23:01.58 | Sstixrud | kaso - yup, thats what I am doing... for debuff I now have to figure out how best to split out curses, posions, magic and diseases from every other debuff aura as I need to treat them differently |
| 23:02.01 | tingle | lol duh that means its the blp it uses.... |
| 23:02.28 | tingle | and that doesnt stand anywhere i just remembered that blp while i was looking around the art file |
| 23:02.31 | tingle | ;) |
| 23:03.00 | kaso | Sstixrud you've gotta use tooltip parsing |
| 23:03.13 | kaso | oh wait |
| 23:03.15 | kaso | hang on |
| 23:03.17 | kaso | umm |
| 23:03.48 | kaso | theres GetPlayerBuffDispelType for player, but i could of swarn there was a function the same for UnitDebuffs |
| 23:04.04 | Sstixrud | I already have the players castable SpellNames tagged as curing Magic, Curses, Posions or Diaseses.. I just need to match those spellnames to the aura events |
| 23:04.51 | Sstixrud | the user manually clicks on the spell and configures what cure attributes that spell has.. avoids me having to hard code every spell function and keep it up to date as blizzard patches |

| 23:09.50 | Sstixrud | for UNIT_AURA event ill: UnitDebuff and pass all auras that match debuffType to my MyAddonCure() |
| 23:10.23 | tingle | is there a way to resize a button? like make it smaller? |
| 23:10.24 | Sstixrud | anything that doesn't match ill treat as an Attack Debuff for the Target |
| 23:10.30 | tingle | . |
| 23:10.40 | kaso | tingle, :SetScale() |
| 23:11.07 | tingle | where to put it |
| 23:11.27 | tingle | in the button name`? |
| 23:11.44 | kaso | well, do you want to make the button like 20% smaller, or do you want it like, Width of 10 and high of 5 etc etc |
| 23:12.08 | tingle | smaller % |
| 23:12.30 | Sstixrud | tingle http://fara.webeddie.com/frames/frame13.html explains how to create a slider that changes scales |
| 23:13.51 | tingle | not like that :) just make the button smaller, not a slider |

| 23:14.39 | kaso | it shows how to use SetScale() though |
| 23:15.21 | kaso | basically in an Onload you need to do ButtonsName:SetScale(number between 1 and 0) |
| 23:17.03 | tingle | does onload come before or after <Frame> |
| 23:17.46 | Sstixrud | Anything that calls other code goes at the bottom in the <Scripts> section |
| 23:17.56 | Sstixrud | the url I sent u explains it all |

| 23:20.39 | bleetah | Mr_Rabies: it's not working |
| 23:20.41 | tingle | can i put 20% in SetScale() ?? |
| 23:21.03 | kaso | i said above, setscale takes a value between 1 and 0 |
| 23:21.10 | kaso | well actually not true but, 1 is 100% 0 is 0% |
| 23:21.19 | foxlit | 20% == 20 / 100 == 0.2 |
| 23:21.36 | foxlit | "percent = per cent = per hundred" :) |
| 23:21.57 | foxlit | (and "multiply by 100 to get a percentage steps in maths textbooks are just plain evil) |
| 23:22.44 | bleetah | hehe |
| 23:22.52 | tingle | ah thats the way it works ok now look at this http://wowi.pastey.net/5613 no change of size... |
| 23:23.31 | kaso | READ THE FARAFRAMES TUTORAL! |
| 23:23.35 | kaso | From start to end |
| 23:23.37 | kaso | like a book |
| 23:23.39 | kaso | seriously |
| 23:23.44 | bleetah | anyone know of a mod that, whilst fishing, if something attacks you it'll swap the fishing pole out for your main melee weapon? |
| 23:23.57 | tingle | i just went through all 15 pages and couldnt find anything with SetScale |
| 23:24.06 | bleetah | or at least print 'swap out our fishing pole, noob' in big bright letters :/ |
| 23:24.15 | kaso | No, but you can find lots about the correct place to put OnLoads tingle |
| 23:24.27 | foxlit | bleetah: that's doable, but I don't think anyone does it :) |
| 23:24.46 | kaso | you can do a one line addon to do that pretty much |
| 23:24.49 | bleetah | aye, figured as much hehe |
| 23:25.05 | tingle | well by the faraframes the way i did it is correct |
| 23:25.18 | bleetah | (let's play 'guess who just tried fighting two hydras and a fen strider with a fishing pole) |
| 23:25.22 | tingle | but the scale is still the same |
| 23:25.24 | tingle | http://wowi.pastey.net/5613 |
| 23:25.39 | kaso | The onload is in the wrong place |
| 23:26.24 | kaso | Look on page 12, See where he put the OnLoad |
| 23:30.32 | Groll | hmm is there any addon that makes it possible to cast a macro without having it on the hotbar? |
| 23:32.18 | kaso | SetBindingMacro("KEY", "macroname" or macroid) :> |
| 23:34.05 | Groll | hmm |
| 23:51.10 | Corrodias | making it easy to assign macros to keys is probably a function of some addon, but i'm not aware of it |
| 23:53.19 | tingle | http://wowi.pastey.net/5617 is that correct to make a button work (xml part) |
| 23:55.38 | Corrodias | could be... |
| 23:55.48 | Corrodias | although it seems you're running the clicked code when it loads as well as when it's clicked |
