[Battleground Chat] INSTANCE_CHAT not properly implemented.

[Kkthnxbye]

Bug Description: I recently reported this issue here https://forum.wow-freakz.com/FIXED-Battleground-chat-type-should-be-Instance-not-Raid-t472807.html. Which is was mostly fixed but not fully implemented properly. This is interfering with addon which uses INSTANCE_CHAT chat channel. When you type /i for the chat in battlegrounds it is defaulting you to RAID chat channel then the output display instance though it is not working for the most part as its still saying you are not in an instance group.

@Shocker I know you mostly fixed this but still there is something wrong. You can test it with this addon.

Understood. At least you acknowledged it. Thank you for that.

For anyone suffering from this issue with their add-ons, here is a work around until it gets properly fixed globally. This is affecting any instance chat related place in the game, dungeons, BGs and so on.

Download a text editor like Notepad++.

Open your desired addon and find some text related to

Code:

INSTANCE_CHAT

right now you will get the error message You are not in an instance group.

change

Code:

INSTANCE_CHAT

to

Code:

RAID

so for example

Code:

SendChatMessage(string_format(InterruptMessage, destName, spellID, spellName), inPartyLFG and "INSTANCE_CHAT" or "PARTY")

Change this to

Code:

SendChatMessage(string_format(InterruptMessage, destName, spellID, spellName), inPartyLFG and "RAID" or "PARTY")

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