TransporterFu Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.0.38124.1188

by: Prandur [More]

Transportation is a precise business. Without precise calculations you could fly right through a star or bounce too close to a supernova and that'd end your trip real quick, wouldn't it?

The Transporter plugin to FuBar will assist you in dematerializing yourself all over the place by providing easy access to all your transportation methods.

Inspired by InnBound and Titan Portals.

Important:
With the release of version 2.0 the only dependency is now FuBar version 2.0 or higher. TransporterFu is now using Ace2/FuBar2 and because of this it is required that if you are upgrading from a non-2.x version to delete the old addon dir before extracting this one into your addons directory. (The new version has a different directory name, if you don't delete the old one, you'll probably end up running two Transporter versions side by side)

I havent had a chance to try it yet (will do this evening), but I noticed the lack of the PvP trinket that ports you back to the main base. It could be that I just missed it or that it may not be listed, but is in the MOD. Ill give you more feedback after trying it out... thanks for making my BossPanel complete. __________________ Putting the laughter back into Slaughter!!!!

Actually that isn't in there, I had forgotten about it (I don't PvP much). I'll add it to list of things to add. Thanks!

Indeed, none "of portal: stormwind" or of the teleports are displayed in the addon. I've checked the spelling a few times and well I'm pretty sure I wrote correctly Stormwind :-) Any clue what I'm doing wrong ? Where can I find a tutorial for localizing Boss addons ? All the best, K.

Did you edit the .toc and add a line for list BossPanel_TransporterLocals-frFR.lua above BossPanel_TransporterLocals.lua ? That could be the problem.

I've noticed in other localizations you need to use the character codes for certain letters instead of just typing them in normally. So for french I'm taking about all the accent grave letters. This link might help you http://tlt.psu.edu/suggestions/inter...ml.html#accent

So instead of à you would put \224
I think, I really have never tried it. But that's what I've seen done.

Well BossPanel plugins are just Ace based addons, so you could check out the Ace website: http://www.wowace.com

Maybe post on the forums there and ask if none of this helps.

Hello,

I'm pretty sure I tried it, but I'll verify again.

I think, I really have never tried it. But that's what I've seen done.

In fact I did it, I tried thefollowing 3 different methods: no encoding, \xxx, and the one used in the french globals (some weird chars). None worked.

The behaviour of the string matching process is really weird: I added some debug code to verify what was happening and here are the results:

- variables are correctly built and added to the METHODS variable (i.e. TELEPORT_DN, TELEPORT_IF, TELEPORT_SW, PORTAL_DN. PORTAL_IF, PORTAL_SW)
- their values are ok (using one of the 3 previously described methods)
- when searching for spell ID the following thing happens:

spell name | variable value | equal ?
Téléportation : Darnassus | Téléportation Darnassus | NO
Téléportation : Ironforge | Téléportation Ironforge | NO
Téléportation : Stormwind | Téléportation Stormwind | NO
Portail : Darnassus | Portail : Darnassus | YES
Portail : Ironforge | Portail : Ironforge | YES
Portail : Stormwind | Portail : Stormwind | NO

Thus I only get spell ids for portals to darnassus and ironforge.

Each time I get a NO, it displays the *same* spelling (on screen)... At the very begining I thought that it was a matter of encoding due to the "é" chars, nevertheless as portal to Stormwind is not accepted neither (and as there is no special char in it) I'm wondering what's happening.

I tried to set the variables using getSpellName(sid) (I can't remember the exact variable name) and providing the sid manually: it works fine, all spells are correctly displayed. The debug output shows that all names are matching. Unfortunately, spell IDs seem to change... It worked fine for two hours, and the menu starte to display "polymorph" and "blink" spells (lol) so this is not a viable workaround :-( I guess that it is the reason, you coded it this way :-)

Well BossPanel plugins are just Ace based addons, so you could check out the Ace website: http://www.wowace.com

Maybe post on the forums there and ask if none of this helps.

I'll go check it thank you a lot,

See you!

Kraal A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 5 Uploads: 0	got it... After having tested the whole thing I found out why it was not working. 1) I was loading Locals before Locals-frFR (my bad uh uh...) 2) for the spelling... I checked the strings char by char and it appeared that for some weird reasons instead of using a space " " char in spell names, blizzard developers use for some spells, sometimes, the char 194 followed by the char 160... Don't ask me why... This is the case for all teleporting spells (first space before the ":") and for portal to stormwind (but not ironforge nor darnassus...) Anyway, I finally had to modify the spell names in order to get such strings... TELEPORT_DN = "T\195\169l\195\169portation"..string.char(194)..string.char(160)..": Darnassus" (yes I love lua and lol...) I cannot check for horde spells and items I dont have, but if you want I can post here the french localisation and someone can test it for horde teleports/portals. See you !

Thanks. The next version should be much, much better. Once I get the last of the current known bugs worked out. I'm almost there.

And yes, as you discovered the Spell ID's can change quite frequently sometimes, so I had no other choice but do it this way. For items I was able to use itemID's which are fixed, and thus avoid the need to localize them.

You've got a very strange problem there, with what I can see and the process you laid out it SHOULD work. Its quite irritating that it doesn't. I'm still working on trying to eliminate the necessity for localization, but I'm afraid in the case of spells it doesn't look good.

*edit*

However I see you did get it to work finally. Very odd. And yes, please if you could post the french localized values here I will include them in all future releases. Thanks!

That's why I could'nt test some modifications I made to your code. Anyway, I contacted the french localization team and declared the "bug". In fact these two chars are an unsecable space and they have no clue where they use normal spaces and where they use unsecable spaces... They will correct the strings little by little to normalize them but they cannot ensure that all strings will be ok, nor that there is no unsecable spaces in other localizations (or even in US version) and they don't know if they will replace unsecable spaces with regular spaces, or replace spaces with unsecable spaces... further as they are using different tools for localizing the strings, it seems that some of them directly inserts unsecable spaces... (lol) For this reason as this issue may appear with other spells and/or localizations and as I don't even dream about a real fix, I slightly modified your code in order to allows users to declare spell names in the Locals without using these anoying unsecable spaces: 1) created a small function RemoveUnsecableSpaces which replaces them with regular spaces 2) create a UpdateSpellNames function which replaces the spellnames declared through variables (in self.loc[method]) by the spellname as declared in the spellBook (using the ReplaceUnsecableSpaces for normailzing the spell names) I tested it partially yesterday and it seems to work (at first sight), but it was late and couldn't come and paste modified code here. Concerning the French localization of your addon, it is also done and I'll paste it here with the code. See you, K. Last edited by Kraal : 04-05-06 at 06:31 AM.

I've majorly rewritten Transporter since the last official release, so I'll have to merge your new code in. Shouldn't be much of a problem though if I understand what you've done correctly.

Doh! I made the same mistake when I was updating ItemBonuses. I've reposted the new zip file, hopefully it takes this time.
