there's a bug in your soup / addon scripting help REPorter

[troncho]

does anyone have some addon scriping knowledge?

maybe interested in making Reporter work here at freakz?

https://mods.curse.com/addons/wow/reporter-battleground-map

oddly enough it works in other legion servers but not here

says "you are not in an instance" if u want to send msgs

and it just straight up doesnt work in silvershard miness

I'll give it a look sometime this week.

Working fine on my end.



EDIT >>

So the AddOn works. Though it doesn't work properly on FreakZ because of the wrong ChatID/type they have right now on their battlegrounds. Once they fix my reported bug, it will work 100%

https://forum.wow-freakz.com/Battleground-Chat-Type-ID-is-wrong-t472807.html

Though the error you are getting is because you are using a newer version than what version we are on right now game wise. We are on 7.1.5, not 7.2.5

Anyway, you can fix this yourself. Pickup Notepad++ or something. Atom, or anything else that can edit and view code properly and use ctrl+f to find INSTANCE_CHAT and replace all INSTANCE_CHAT with RAID

Another thing. In the code there is a Lua function called strupper ctrl+f that and remove it all.

Success isn't what you've done compared to others. Success is what you've done compared to what you were made to do.

I'm pretty sure I'm using 7.1.5 but I'll check again

EDIT>> I am using version 4.6.2, thats for 7.1.5

this is exactly what I was hoping for

I'm not a coder so when I opened up the REPorter.lua file I had no idea what to look for

EDIT>>

managed to replace all "INSTANCE_CHAT" to "RAID_CHAT"

and I found 3 instances of this "strupper" thing, but I deleted the whole if-then thing (tho I'm not a coder I took basic programming in school)

could you please tell me if its ok



here I included the 'else' from the previous 'if' (I think?)



here I pretty much deleted the function without deleting the function itself in case it was called by some other function (huh? but I hope u know what I mean?)



thank you for taking the time

if it works ima ask to put this edited version of the addon on the freakz site

this addon is awesome for bgs

REPorter\\\\REPorter-1.2.2.lua:603: in function <REPorter\\\\REPorter.lua:485>"

Ill check it. I was thinking it could be a wrong map ID or something. Ill debug it this weekend.
