Did you remember to exempt crafting skills that you start with points in (order changes by language)?

Did you read my code paste ? :(

*feels ignored* :(

Haha, I'm not ignoring you. I'm just going through the stages of grief in dealing with the fact that so much code is required because GetUsedSkillPoints() and/or GetEarnedSkillPoints() isn't in the API (poke @ZOS_ChipHilseberg). I've gotten past denial, anger, and bargaining and I'm closing in on depression and acceptance. :banana:

Seriously though, I've looked at both your addon, which I have had for a while now, and SpentSkillPoints. Both do something similar. I suppose I'll start hacking away at it today. I need to try to do it in a way that I don't need to preserve another big table of data. Keeping track of all of the skill point achievements, skyshards, and quests is already a lot to maintain. And that's on top of all of the individual points being stored in another big table so that the GUI can be accurately displayed.

I went through this recently for an addition for CS and I chose the lazy way out and borrowed SSP. Out of all of the weird obscure things ZOS DOES let us check on, they couldn't give us a function to access something extremely useful?

Well I was able to identify the two-point difference on all but one of my characters by going through the skills tree. Oddly enough, my main is actually showing one skill point that he doesn't actually have. Someone mentioned that there were some issues at some point with public dungeon group boss events not properly awarding a skill point. I'd be interested in hearing if any of you know any of the details about that. Anyway, I went ahead and published the addon in case any of you would like to give it a try. Thanks for all your help.

I think you should consider more the language switch in craft.
and also the vampire / ww skilllines removed but not respec'ed.

What exactly do you mean by the language switch in craft? I'm checking those lines in the first and second tiers by their global values, not by their order. Only at the lowest level am I checking by the skill order. What am I missing?

Lua Code:

local enchantingSkillType, enchantingSkillLine = GetCraftingSkillLineIndices(CRAFTING_TYPE_ENCHANTING)
local provisionSkillType, provisionSkillLine = GetCraftingSkillLineIndices(CRAFTING_TYPE_PROVISIONING)
 
if skillType == SKILL_TYPE_TRADESKILL then
    if skillIndex == 1 then
        return 1
    end
    
    if skillIndex == 2 then
        if skillType == enchantingSkillType and skillLine == enchantingSkillLine then
            return 1
        end
        if skillType == provisionSkillType and skillLine == provisionSkillLine then
            return 1
        end
    end
end

I'm sure iterating a hidden vampire and/or werewolf line can be done but I've not done it myself. Do you (or anyone else reading) know of a good way to iterate those trees when they're hidden?
