Altoholic

Version: 10.2.007

by: Thaoky [More]

Hi, my name is Thaoky, and I'm an Altoholic

Altoholic is an Ace 3 add-on written for people who dedicate most of their time to leveling alts, and who want to have as much information as possible in one place.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

I am back in the game since 28/12/2020.

If you are upgrading from a version below 9.0.003, YOU MUST CLEAR YOUR SAVED VARIABLES !!

This means cleaning the following files in \WTF\Account\<your_account>\SavedVariables : Altoholic.lua & All DataStore*.lua

About the add-on:

The add-on has been in development since December 2007 and was officially released in late March 2008. It provides you information about your alts (bags, mails, AH, etc...) without having to reconnect them all the time.

Supporting development:

You might not know this, but add-ons do not write themselves.
If you want to help development, or simply show your appreciation, use one of the following ways:

Making a Paypal donation here : [email protected]
Make a gift from my Amazon's wish list : https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/3A2XOLZ09V2A8
Make an in-game donation (EU only : gold, BOE's, pets, mounts, ..) : Thaoky @ MarécagesDeZangar

About the author:

I was born in '76 (you do the math) and I work as a Project Manager + Software Architect + Full Stack Web Dev (yup, multiple hats) in a large multinational, so my coding time is limited, and Work > Gaming.

I live in Belgium, and obviously play on EU only.

Assistance will be provided on a best effort basis, but in any case always be polite and respectful when asking for help, I am neither a teenager, nor a punching ball. I am a cool guy with people who are cool with me. Respect that rule and we'll be fine.

Availability:

2020/12/28: I am back in the game.

Current Issues:

2020/12/28: Due to Teelo's actions, I have reverted his changes and resumed development based on my latest version of the code. Some of his new features are temporarily not available anymore, some are gone forever. The main Shadowlands features will be back though, just be patient.

Credits:

I'd like to thank my guild, Odysseüs on EU-Marécages de Zangar, for assisting me since the earliest phases, thanks guys for everything you've done
Thanks to the all the people who have supported the add-on since 2008, and also all those of you who came on board later.
Thanks to all the guys who have helped with code/translations/bug tracking.. and well, project support in general, especially during my long absences. Such projects can be long and tedious, it is good to not feel alone

Join the #altoholic IRC channel on Freenode : irc://irc.freenode.net:6667/

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR 8.0 : As with every new expansion, many things have changed in the API, and it is REQUIRED to clear your Saved Variables for the addon.
This means cleaning the following files in \WTF\Account\<your_account>\SavedVariables : Altoholic.lua & All DataStore*.lua

There WILL be bugs if you use your old files without cleaning them first.
Some fixes to work around API changes are too time consuming, so cleaning is required. A meagre price to pay once per expansion.

How to support Altoholic's development :

- Use the donate button either on Curse or on WoW Interface
- Support me on Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/Thaoky , the page is still being setup, it might take a few days before it can be used, I still need a banner.
- Make a gift from my amazon's wish list : http://amzn.eu/7xWdnbZ

If you like the addon, consider supporting it, this has been the long term effort and commitment of a single person. #OneManArmy

Yeah, I know, from what I've read in other reports, I would suggest focusing your attention on quest addons. My current suspicion is that a quest addon is calling the function that requests the quest history a bit too often.

DataStore_Quest listens to that call, and saves the info it gets into the DB.
But if another addon calls the aforementioned function all the time, then indeed DS_Quest will work more, but it won't be guilty.

Some other addon is, but I have no time trying to find out which.

Btw, do you confirm that Altoholic alone doesn't cause the issue ?

Once the conflict is identified, and if there's anything I can do on my side, I'll take action.

The problem is indeed into LPT which allows the following logic to be true :
"spell ID a, b or c allow you to craft item 123" .. and "item 123 can be crafted using mats x, y or z" .. but never allows you to determine that mats x are for spell a, y for b, etc...

The real solution is to have a table where [spellID] = "reagents", and not [itemID] = "reagents" as it is now.

So sadly, we'll have to live with it for now.

I came to that conclusion looking at the code, otherwise I would've sent you a fix, lol
That's also why I included the "enchant" IDs that are found in the links, these are also the spell IDs found in the spell database.
It'll have to be for a major release. The work required would take a complete rewrite of LPT and all of its associated data, not to mention the API calls Altoholic makes to retrieve the data.

Check addons that deal with achievememnts/quests.

Try this: Enable only Altoholic, and nothing else, then see if the issue still appears (pretty sure it won't).

I'm almost certain, it's QuestHelper of either incarnation.

There's an error in the way libPeriodicTable looks up tradeskill mats. For example, with Tailoring, there are 6 different tradeskills that create Dreamcloth. libPeriodicTable is matching the item Dreamcloth (ItemID 54440) with the mat list for Dream of Hyjal and listing that as the mat list for all of them.

Included below is the additional mat to be used with 8x Bolts of Embersilk (ItemID 53643) in each of the following tradeskills.

Code:

SkillID	SkillName		Qty	ItemID	ItemName
75141	Dream of Skywall	30	52328	Volatile Air
75142	Dream of Deepholm	30	52327	Volatile Earth
75144	Dream of Hyjal		30	52329	Volatile Life
75145	Dream of Ragnaros	30	52325	Volatile Fire
75146	Dream of Azshara	30	52326	Volatile Water
94743	Dream of Destruction	5	52078	Chaos Orb

Note: SkillID is the ID used in the enchant link for a tradeskill.

No errors thrown but upon completing a quest the game freezes for up to three seconds. The game also freezes for 8 to 15 seconds when entering an instance (dead or otherwise) and it may be affecting battle rezzes the same way (unconfirmed.) I disabled altoholic and the lag disappeared.
