Snarty   Forum posts: 0 File comments: 226 Uploads: 6	Quote: Originally posted by Matrix You could detect the start of the encounter based on the damage anyone in the raid takes from the King or the Prince and/or anyone of them taking any damage from the players. At the moment I start the encounter by both King and Prince taking damage, this I'm thinking of changing to either one instead. Quote: I think the unitId changes after a mob resets. If that's the case use that as an indicator to detect a reset/wipe. If it's not changing then just check for the events when you lose the King and the Prince from the target list, go into a special state and keep checking until you get them back in the target list. If they come back at full health, that indicates a reset/wipe. Yeah, this I've played with ideas. The problem I'm having is if people release, but then if the persons Monitor resets after they release (I think they'll lose King and Prince from their Specifiers) it doesn't matter if their Monitor resets. I guess, even if a persons monitor resets accidentally it's not an issue, since it'll soon readjust itself when initiation conditions are met. Quote: To detect an end due to a successful kill go with Event.Combat.Death for both the King and the Prince. The event is in place for this, just haven't decided what to do when it ends. Possible reset, then auto hide. Quote: Last but not least add a slash command or an UI button to force a reset on your addon - in fact when you detect a reset/wipe/end you should call this same function internally to keep the behavior the same. This on the other hand, along with Mr Funsocks's request is something I should of implemented sooner, and will be worked on ASAP. Quote: Once the API provides the events for the start/end of the encounter you can easily make the switch since you will be ready for it Yeah, actual "enter combat" events for Units other than the player will in itself make my life much easier. What is currently happening behind the scenes though is that as I build this one instance the framework for a complete boss-mods package is being built in tandem, so eventually I can just plug in more encounters. Thanks for the feedback and suggestions, very helpful, and it's good we're no longer talking about removing bugs, but improvements instead. Makes me happy.

The start-up error was due to conflict my variable initialization code for versions sub 0.3.0 to 0.3.0. The error would vanish if you reloaded it, or logged in/out. Anyhow, should be squashed now.

Although there's another strange bug involving Murdantix encounter which can cause the addon to start ignoring any other of the mods entirely. This'll only appear if you start a fresh HK, but will be hopefully squashed before it effects too many people. Nothing drastic and nothing a quick /reloadui after Murdantix can't fix currently.

Ceres Forum posts: 0 File comments: 73 Uploads: 0	Thx for your nice works. Inquisitor Garau in french is "Inquisiteur Garau" Inwar Darktide is "Inwar Noirflux" Little suggestion for the Translation ... Instead of having if language condition everywhere in your different files you could easily create location folder with language files where you could defined the variable once and it could be easier for future translations

Instead of having if language condition everywhere in your different files you could easily create location folder with language files where you could defined the variable once and it could be easier for future translations Thanks for that, I'll add those in. The problem at the moment is that the API only kind of supports localization. What I'm waiting on is for them to normalize bosses/skills so they can be accessed via unique ID's rather than names. I am however working on a method to include cross language support. Using cross variables split, Garau.English, Garau.French and Garau.German for example (since real names never change). If you're watching the code, you'll notice it's changing slowly to use less variables and more cross-referencing.

I certainly appreciate the help with you providing the French translations and will add any you feel would help French speaking players. I'm scared to babelfish translate everything in case I inadvertently offend someone. I was just trying to explain I wasn't ignoring other languages, just I'm waiting for a better method of not having to use huge translation tables for unit types, and only have the translations for Menus, although Boss names will certainly need to be translated for menus anyhow. However, I'll be moving against having localization folders in favor of all language related constants being applied only at the top of each individual Boss Mod/Encounter (including menu wording).
