Alchemist (Update 6) Escape Bug Fixed Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 165.1

by: awesomebilly [More]

Alchemist
An Elder Scrolls Online addon for.. alchemists!

For Update 6 I spent a solid week trying to refactor and find the bug where the keyboard would break.
This is now fixed!
For updates on how it was fixed, please see the bottom of this post.

What does it do?

This addon tells you which alchemy reagents (in your current inventory/bank) to combine, and in what order, to discover the maximum number of new traits.

If there's no unknown traits to be discovered, it will tell you that as well.

How does it work?

The addon will activate as soon as you interact with an Alchemy Station. An extra window will open up with a list of optimal reagent combinations, in order.

Top of the chat leaves a blank space (ugly)

How the escape bug was fixed:
This wasn't a single issue but multiple issues that caused this.
Issue #1, global self in the unicorn library (Removed/Refactored/Renamed and fixed)
Issue #2, too much global variable work going on
Issue #3, and MAJOR THANKS TO Votan
had a global "i" variable inside a table loop and was breaking each time. (Moved to local variable)

Together we can compile a list of current issues then can work on that to bring up the addon to scratch then move forward for future implementation of features

I have received a reply from AwesomeBilly via private messaging a couple of days ago, hopefully he can find the time to come back to the management of his addons. Just give him some time guys.

I look into it further, but both authors need to update both LUA codes. I may just create my own add on rather than try to manipulate two code bases.

Triston

please do! i like this addon but the esc key is just to much of an issue.

sounds good, if you choose to proceed with it =)

i mean sure, we have PotionMaker, but the approach of Alchemist was nice ("show me the most viable stuff"), and PotionMaker has a few kinks of its own.

the addon i imagine would be most beneficial for alchemists is one that both shows you what you will get most out of researching and what you're able to craft in general - all at the same time. convenience is a huge thing for me

let's just out-source it instead. i'd love to this mod get an overhaul, because it's so convenient, and i loves me some convience!

i'm not proficient in LUA shenanigans myself, so... any takers out there? can we advertise help wanted, somewhere?

I think it might have something to do with the hover tool-tip display of ingredient info when hovering over something in your inventory, as I have also noticed both issues when I haven't used Alchemist on my main character and an alt, both of which have no experience in Alchemy other than from book skill gains. Am wondering where Awesomebilly is in regards to this issue...

I sure wish someone would come up with a fix for this. As I too have to enable the add-on and do a reloadui, do my alchemy researching, then a reloadui to get Esc key back, disable the addon and another reloadui and go on my way. Absolutely a PITA to do 3 reloadui(s) just to ensure i have researched all traits possible.

Too bad as this is a great concept but very poor implementation in its current state.

I know Sous Chef lets you do it with Provisioning ingredients, and would love to be able to have my main potions, and their ingredients, marked in a similar way. The add-on is great btw, keep up the good work!

I was wondering if anything is in the works to make the same add-on for Enchanting? Even if there isn't keep up the good work. -We play Russian rullet everyday, with a bullet called life- -Anonymous

If I visit the alchemy station but don't actually craft anything, the effect is delayed. I am able to use Esc to get out of the station, but within a few minutes I won't be able to use it for it's other uses.

I've checked with other guild members who are using this addon and they experience the same problem. Let me know if there is any game data you need from me for diagnosing this.

Do you also get a frame-rate reduction whilst hovering over items in inventory after you notice this bug?

I noticed the Esc key not functioning after I attempted to make a quick list of addons that could possibly cause my fps reduction when hovering over items in the inventory, seemingly after crafting regardless of which type of crafting, not just Alchemy.

I do have a habit of going straight from the crafting station screen to the inventory screen, if that makes a difference though I did stop doing that in short trial & error last night.
