InstanceTime

I absolutely love this AddOn for timing my instance runs - been using it to farm the Baron Rivendare mount! There's only one problem with it which frustrates me a little which is that it does not remember the setting for "Force New Entry". Meaning each time I login to the game I have to set that automatically but everything else about the AddOn is absolutely amazing! Thank you very much for your great work! :)

We're glad you left a comment and we now know it isn't abandoned. ^^

See you around..

Still some issues with the recording. Won't record heroic naxx if you have the party checked off, gives me a message. Have to have all of them on to record heroic raids. No error though.

Large bug in v3.71.

Enter a raid instance. Have the InstanceTime timer auto-start. After a few minutes, open the instance list (which has several months of runs saved). Left-click the current run so you can see the money earned so far. Error is thrown up:

["message"] = "...reierGeist_InstanceTime\\FreierGeist_InstanceTime.lua:4455: 'for' limit must be a number:\n...reierGeist_InstanceTime\\FreierGeist_InstanceTime.lua:2609: in function `FreierGeist_IT_EntryClicked':\n< string >:\"*:OnClick\":2: in function < [string \"*:OnClick\"]:1 >\n\n ---",
["type"] = "error",
["session"] = 775,
["counter"] = 11

Every time you try to click the current instance in the list, the error repeats. The instance never gets highlighted and the money/reputation gained cannot be seen.

Next, try instead clicking the last instance done in the list. That also doesn't work, the error repeats. Finally, try clicking older instances. That works; the third-newest instance in the list and prior can be clicked/highlighted without issue. But not the newest two.

For quite a few releases I have been have a problem where I get immediately disconnected from WoW when using loot links in a chat message.

I have temporarily fixed the problem by changing the code in FreierGeist_IT_ScrollBarSetItemLink
From
- link = FreierGeist_IT_Loot["item"][lootindex][lineplusoffset];
- link = string.gsub(link, "|cff9d9d9d|H", "");
- link = string.gsub(link, "|cffffffff|H", "");
- link = string.gsub(link, "|cff1eff00|H", "");
- link = string.gsub(link, "|cff0070dd|H", "");
- link = string.gsub(link, "|cffa335ee|H", "");
- link = string.gsub(link, "|cffff8000|H", "");
- link = string.gsub(link, "|h[%(%w*%)]|h|r", "");
- SetItemRef(link, FreierGeist_IT_Loot["item"][lootindex][lineplusoffset], "InstanceTimeLootEntry"..NumberForItemLink);
To
+ _, itemLink = GetItemInfo(FreierGeist_IT_Loot["item"][lootindex][lineplusoffset]);
+ if (itemLink) then
+ _, _, itemString = string.find(itemLink, "^|c%x+|H(.+)|h%[.*%]");
+ if (itemString) then
+ SetItemRef(itemString, itemLink, "InstanceTimeLootEntry"..NumberForItemLink);
+ end
+ end

I recommend switching from LibBabbleBoss to LibBossIDs for a cleaner upto date boss list library.

LibBossIDs-1.0 provides a table that flags mobIDs true if the mob linked to the ID is a boss. Example: if LibStub("LibBossIDs-1.0).BossIDs[mobID] then print("Found a boss!") end

One can get the mobID from a GUID the following way: mobid = tonumber(GUID:sub(9, 12), 16)

Good to hear Dhana. This is an absolutely invaluable mod; would'nt know what to do if it was discontinued ;).

The problem with v3.7 I mentioned below last month is still present. To recap:

"The following options are never saved properly and are always checkmarked ("on") after relogging:
--"Show reputation in Addons using LDB"
--"Show gold in Addons using LDB"

Consequently, if using a small LDB display (I use StatBlockCore), that data overflows the display. And even if you uncheck the options so that it doesn't display, the options always improperly reset when you relog."

Hope this can be fixed for the next revision sooner than later.

Welcome back! I was missing you Dhana. I opened tickets on those items too, so it will be a tad easier to keep up with them on CurseForge rather than having to go back a page in comments!

BTW, just selecting all available recording options solved my error message.

I think that is too many checkboxes (although it might be easier to code, I have no idea). Here's how I think it would be more intuitive (o = Radio Button, [] = Check box, things in {} are clarification and the -- at the beginning indicates indents which Curse comments freaking HATE):

o Raids [This radio button would simply indicate that you would like to record raids, and would make the below options available (and never record BGs hehe)]
--[] Normal (10 man)
--[] Heroic (25 man)
o Party Instances
--[] Normal
--[] Heroic

I hope this clarifies my idea a little bit. I just don't want a million options if a few will do it, unless its much easier to code. I'm only just learning lua and I'm not anywhere near being able to do this, so I'm not sure how hard/easy my way would be. But I think this will make the options more intuitive and streamlined.

Also, there's no "heroic (10 man)" raids like you have on your ideas above lol.
