Item bar lag?

[DLoweinc]

Wow odd behavior indeed, the only time I've had an issue with the item bar is in Oculus with the drakes. Everyone uses it but only two get mounted, the other three have their drake on a "use cooldown" and I have to wait about 10 seconds and then manually click them.

Could this be a chat throttle lib thing too?

I just recently updated to the newest Jamba, and noticed severe lag sometimes now with slaves accepting quests, completing quests, and this is the annoying one: constant "Follow broke" messages, even when I can see they're all following.

If it helps, I do have the quest watcher enabled.

Too much traffic in the addon channel causes a lot of issues like this.
I hope Jafula can minimize the amount of messages that are sent through the channel since it adds up to be a lot, and i think sam was saying something somewhere about some rather unnecessary looking messages being spammed there.

I have my background fps set to 10, maybe I should set it to 21?

Yes, that would help at lot, assuming your computers can handle the extra graphics load.

No, I don't think so given the item starts its cooldown.

The quest watcher is probably sending a bit too much traffic. Try turning it off and see if that helps.

Yup, too much traffic is the cause. I made a lot of improvements in 0.5 (from 0.4) to minimize traffic. Unfortunately it seems that the new Jamba Quest Watcher can be a bit heavy on the traffic. I'll have a closer look at that when I get a chance.

Nah, Sam, was looking at the team online channel which is totally different to the addon channel. Also Sam had turned on the debug switch which had caused him to see a heap of debug messages.

I've been getting "I am Attacked," "Follow broken," and sometimes I have to reset the group loot because the wrong toon is looting (slaves are opting out). My bgfps is set to 15 I'll bump it up to 21 and see what happens.

Some drakes not mounting is because your toons are most likely all standing on top of each other, the vehicles don't like to all start in the same spot, so only some end up getting mounted.

The solution is to hit your spread out keys first.

Thanks I'll try this, I seem to get Oculus as my first "random dungeon" each day, have for four days now

I had this issue as well, but i believe it's unrelated to jamba.

basically, if all the toons are stacked and all call their drake, it seems some get confused and try the wrong mount or something.
Basically 5 drakes come down, but only 2/3/4 get mounted.

try and spread your toons a bit and you'll never have the problem again, they'll all jump on their own mount correctly :-)

This is probably the iLevel in your gear. That and acheivements are what WoW used to set a "random" instance. Not sure how to fix unless you can do ICC.

Lol, Fenril, I don't hate you.

You are correct, a background FPS of 20 will halve the amount of data sent. Not good really... Jamba uses this library: http://www.wowwiki.com/ChatThrottleLib

Easy fix is to set your background FPS on everything to a minimum of 21.

Medium fix is for you to edit every occurance of ChatThrottleLib.lua in your wow addons folders and change this line to a lower value:

ChatThrottleLib.MIN_FPS = 20 -- Reduce output CPS to half (and don't burst) if FPS drops below this value

Harder fix is for me to work out how to override the library in Jamba.

Stuck this info in the Jamba - Getting Started thread. Good stuff to know about ChatThrottleLib.lua, I'll have to play around with that when I come back to WoW.
