[Addon] Jamba - An assistant for multiboxers. Old Thread

[Iru]

Received this error message after accepting quests from Remy "Two Times" in Goldshire. This is with Jamba 0.7c. It happened with both low-level quests this NPC offers.

Lua error is as follows:

{snip}

Let me know if you need any additional information.

-CA

I can confirm this bug. Only started this past week end though. My latest addon additions are Altoholic and related DataStore items. Will try disabling those and see if the error still occurs

EDIT: Removing Altoholic et al doesn't resolve this, and I now get the failure on entering the world - I was only getting it on update/NPC interaction previously. Error follows:

Let me know if you want someone to test things for you, Jafula.

Thanks for the bug reports re: the quests, I'll have a look at them soon.

Seems more like its an ace3 library error or something;

Does this happen all the time or only with certain messages?

Its all the time, "BUT ONLY" with the Real ID whispers.

When someone whispers one of the slaves and it tries to forward to the master.

The normal whispers *in the pinky type text* all forward correctly, just the Real ID *blue ones* which give that error.


I tried disabling bartender, cause i seen that in the error report, but then i get a Atlasloot error, just like the bartender one.

It goes on like that thru out loads of other ace3 librarys, then eventually im down to nothing, and it does it for the Ace3 library in jamba. Which is why i tought it was an ace3 thing and not a jamba thing.

Its done it ever since the damned patch, i just never noticed cause i dont have many real id friends added, just my brother. maybe blizz changed a hidden something or ace3 changed a lil something in their updates.. im no expert at this stuff.

but if ya need me to do something extra to test soemthing for ya, just yell, its no problem at all.

Remy is really nice to me. I don't get a lua error at all. However, thanks to both of your lua error posts, I can pinpoint where the error happened and I have stuck a fix in that should stop the error from happening.

What I _think_ is happening is that the server is a little slow returning quest information and Jamba has got caught up.

Bizarre, all Real ID whispers working fine at my end (the blue ones). Are your friends trying to send you links or just regular text? I can't figure out what is going wrong here.

Jamba 0.7d Released.

Changes...

Follow

* New option "Only warn if outside follow range". This is off by default. If it is on and you are in follow range and follow breaks you will not get a warning, so be careful!

Purchase

* Fixed bug where toons were not purchasing the correct amount of items.

Proc

* Fixed bug where you were unable to choose a sound for a proc. You can now choose sounds for procs!

Display Team

* Power bars now update properly.

Its just regular text chit chat from my brother - cause i added him when he changed to horde. before that i never noticed it because i didnt have any real ID people. always hated the concept of someone seeing exactly what char and server i was on.

I'll just reinstall ace3 on its own and see what happens from there.

Jafula,

We love Jamba!,
One quick request though: Are there anyway to condense the quest watcher to something of quest helper style like:

XXXXX Quest: 4/5 || I.e 4 out of 5 members have completed it, then you can choose to expand if you want? or have the option to be collapsed by default.

thanks!

Anywhere i can read a consise rundown on what Jamba does, ive browsed all the threads and its a bit daunting.
