Altoholic

Version: 10.2.007

by: Thaoky [More]

Hi, my name is Thaoky, and I'm an Altoholic

Altoholic is an Ace 3 add-on written for people who dedicate most of their time to leveling alts, and who want to have as much information as possible in one place.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

I am back in the game since 28/12/2020.

If you are upgrading from a version below 9.0.003, YOU MUST CLEAR YOUR SAVED VARIABLES !!

This means cleaning the following files in \WTF\Account\<your_account>\SavedVariables : Altoholic.lua & All DataStore*.lua

About the add-on:

The add-on has been in development since December 2007 and was officially released in late March 2008. It provides you information about your alts (bags, mails, AH, etc...) without having to reconnect them all the time.

Supporting development:

You might not know this, but add-ons do not write themselves.
If you want to help development, or simply show your appreciation, use one of the following ways:

Making a Paypal donation here : [email protected]
Make a gift from my Amazon's wish list : https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/3A2XOLZ09V2A8
Make an in-game donation (EU only : gold, BOE's, pets, mounts, ..) : Thaoky @ MarécagesDeZangar

About the author:

I was born in '76 (you do the math) and I work as a Project Manager + Software Architect + Full Stack Web Dev (yup, multiple hats) in a large multinational, so my coding time is limited, and Work > Gaming.

I live in Belgium, and obviously play on EU only.

Assistance will be provided on a best effort basis, but in any case always be polite and respectful when asking for help, I am neither a teenager, nor a punching ball. I am a cool guy with people who are cool with me. Respect that rule and we'll be fine.

Availability:

2020/12/28: I am back in the game.

Current Issues:

2020/12/28: Due to Teelo's actions, I have reverted his changes and resumed development based on my latest version of the code. Some of his new features are temporarily not available anymore, some are gone forever. The main Shadowlands features will be back though, just be patient.

Credits:

I'd like to thank my guild, Odysseüs on EU-Marécages de Zangar, for assisting me since the earliest phases, thanks guys for everything you've done
Thanks to the all the people who have supported the add-on since 2008, and also all those of you who came on board later.
Thanks to all the guys who have helped with code/translations/bug tracking.. and well, project support in general, especially during my long absences. Such projects can be long and tedious, it is good to not feel alone

Join the #altoholic IRC channel on Freenode : irc://irc.freenode.net:6667/

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR 8.0 : As with every new expansion, many things have changed in the API, and it is REQUIRED to clear your Saved Variables for the addon.
This means cleaning the following files in \WTF\Account\<your_account>\SavedVariables : Altoholic.lua & All DataStore*.lua

There WILL be bugs if you use your old files without cleaning them first.
Some fixes to work around API changes are too time consuming, so cleaning is required. A meagre price to pay once per expansion.

How to support Altoholic's development :

- Use the donate button either on Curse or on WoW Interface
- Support me on Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/Thaoky , the page is still being setup, it might take a few days before it can be used, I still need a banner.
- Make a gift from my amazon's wish list : http://amzn.eu/7xWdnbZ

If you like the addon, consider supporting it, this has been the long term effort and commitment of a single person. #OneManArmy

InCombatLockdown() returns 1nil type of result. Which also makes the code easier to read.

Hmm.. I'm not sure I get this, what problem are we talking about ? I'm ok to change this if I know what it's about

At least in the town hall some are red and some aren't and they are already learned.

There's no profession recipes in town hall.

I guess he meant in the profession buildings of the garrison.. it was not really a bug, simply BOP recipes that alts could learn.. but that couldn't be bought because they're BOP. So I coded support for that.

6.0.003 coming soon (I'm about to start the uploads).

Yes, I've read about it just before releasing, it's on my list.
I need to dig a little bit to identify the exact cause.

I've had an issue when 11'th slot was just added, the last character would not appear automatically in grids. Had to manually select her from "?" icon.
Do you see that your character in, say, activity tab?

so any ideas how i fix this?

Have you cleared the saved data as instructed? Also, I'm not sure if 11'th character will automatically propagate to grids. You might need to pull him/her in yourself. Or, well, cleanup the DataStore saved vars, as instructed, and repopulate.
