I recently noticed some weird "frozen" (not removed/hiden?) lines in the merTorchbug table lines here and there which I never noticed before. Maybe it got to do with it. Thank you!

Yeh, it might cause small visual bugs in several addons because objects are not automatically hidden anymore. Basically, anything that can obviously (like in this example) break backward compatibility would be nice to have mentioned somewhere

Seeing how the ingame code still relies on resetFunction being an optional argument in many places, I feel this is more of a bug than an intended change and should be fixed in the game.

EDIT: I clarified it with Dan. The reason it was removed was because the ingame code truly does not need a reset function in some cases and in the past they would pass in function() end, which is quite awful. The new behavior is that the reset function is completely optional and if you need one you have to pass in either a custom function, ZO_ObjectPool_DefaultResetObject or ZO_ObjectPool_DefaultResetControl.

Thanks andy.s, siri and ZOsDanBatson for the info!

The idea is not bad, but it's actually a bit tricky to do that in a reasonable way. The changeset between live and pts is huge. How would one decide what to include in such a list without just copy pasting the full list of changes? You speak of core classes, but what would that even be? Just files in the libraries folder? Even then you'd get 42 entries in the list.
I guess for now I will just add a link to the changes and let everyone figure it out for themselves. Maybe somebody has a better idea.

I don't know which addon the /zgpos command is from, but I suppose it will need an update to work with the next game version. You are advised to report the error in its comment section, as this thread is meant as a place for addon authors to share information about the next game update and not for users to report addon problems.
