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.

Temp chat list is sorted at bottom, users need to scroll upward.
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)

Dude, thank you so much! This made it so much more easy for me :-).

Newest version has support for both english and german! It will autodetect the language, so we can all use the same .zip file.

If you do find any more errors on the reagents, just leave a comment. Or send me a pull request on github (for developers) :-).

I think it'd be really cool if there was a way to find the optimal way to craft a certain potion, but I think it'd be really complicated when it comes to stuff like... a health potion can be made with health restore and stamina, or health and magicka. So how do you prioritise that? You could let people select which effect(s) they want and then list the best way to craft it (perhaps with a toggle option to only show recipes with ingredients you have?). But I'm not sure if that's even possible with the API, and it would probably be a lot of work. If it is possible though, I'd say a good idea would be to have two tabs in the addon: discovery (what we have now) and recipes. For the recipe UI, it'd be neat to have those little icons arranged nicely and then people select those for the effects. I made a (pretty bad) mockup of my idea: http://imgur.com/iyWg0zS Those white circles are supposed to be the trait icons but I couldn't find a resource with them. :P Aaaaanyways... I'm sure whatever you work out will be useful and awesome, and thanks again for creating this addon. Last edited by dijicaek : 04/06/14 at 07:40 AM.

Whups, my bad. It was supposed to be a .zip file. It's fixed in the latest release.

I think I fixed that already. "french" was not added to `supported_languages` which is why there were no windows.

Minion was stuck on "updating". So...

Quit ESO / restart minion / uninstall alchemist / reinstall alchemist / lauch eso

Still nothing :'(

That's weird.. I don't see why it shouldn't work. And it's hard to debug since I only have the english client.

Can someone else with a french client confirm?

Lina: Could you install the addon "Zgoo" here on esoui.com? Then after it's loaded, write "/zgoo Alchemist" in your chatbox and do the following:

1. Verify that version is 0.03
2. Click the colon sign to the left of "print_combinations" and verify that a window does appear.
3. Click the plus sign to the left of "Multilingual", then the colon sign to the left of "get_current_language", and verify that it says "french".

But everything you asked is ok and now your window is showing. According to the process for having gzoo working I think something is broken on my eso install folder TL;DR : it works! Thx

Thanks for the bug report. I'm pretty sure it's because the translations from english to french is not 100%. I also got a bug report for the german version. This happens when you happen to have a reagent that isn't translated correctly, which is why it works for some people, and not others (since not everyone has that reagent.)

I'm stuck at work for 8 hours, but will make a more user friendly error message when I get home. This is really the only fix I can do, since I don't have the french/german client myself. So the only way to rid ourselves of these bugs is for you to report which reagent/trait is causing trouble (which will be easier after I fix better errors.)

The algorithm in use, if I understand it correctly, is actually not very complex. Basically, if you combine 3 reagents with e.g. 3 "restore health" traits, you get "restore health blabla for 14 secs", if it's only 2 reagents, you get "restore health blabla for 10 secs". And that's about it. So it's easy to find out which combinations would yield e.g. mana pots.

Have been playing around with some code, but unfortunately, I've come to really dislike the UI API that ZO has given us, and will probably never waste my time trying to do nice UI's. So your mockup, while possible, is way too "complex". It'd take me about 20 minutes in HTML/CSS, but will probably take days in ESO, and I'd like to spend my time doing fun stuff, as a general rule.

But yeah, what I was thinking about was using tabs, actually. Not sure what to put in the other tab, but I think I will play some ESO before I decide exactly how it should be. I haven't started making pots on a "high level" yet, but when I do I can more easily see what would be useful and not.
