Bugfixes:
- One-time error for fresh installation 'attempt to index local "races_frame" (a nil value)'
v1.8.23
-------
Features:
- Add an extra option ("Ignore") to the warning for incompatible tomtom setting that dismisses it for the current Archy version even if you keep the problematic setting.
Bugfixes:
- Pull in updated LibBabble-DigSites-3.0 to fix ticket 387, dig site error on French client.
v1.8.22
-------
Features:
- Add a cooldown display to Archy's Survey Button.
Bugfixes:
- Fix keybind conflict with Elephant (Elephant should also choose less generic globals to avoid clashing with other addons)
v1.8.21
-------
Bugfixes:
- Only warn once per session if an incompatible TomTom setting is detected.
v1.8.20
-------
Bugfixes:
- Fix so overal progression and solved counts remain consistent.
Crossing any portal in the game (instance or otherwise) invalidates the client Artifact History who woulda known...
- Some more internal changes, nothing visible for users.
v1.8.19
-------
Features:
- Use a barfill background for rare and common artifacts progress tooltip.
- Some internal changes, no visible changes for users.
- Remove manual CHANGELOG.txt from the .zip
Bugfixes:
- Detect and offer to reset incompatible TomTom setting (workaround for ticket #384 until it can be fixed properly).
v1.8.18
-------
Features:
- Improve frame initialization. The distance indicator and survey button should now always show if Archy lists were visible on last logout / reload.
- Additionally the site distances will not show as '999999' until the player moves after a reload or fresh logon.
- Code cleanup: remove duplicate function that wasn't being called anywhere.
- Internal changes to make the "Toggle Archy" keybind behavior consistent with clicking the LDB/minimap icon (keybing method would fail to properly show the distance indicator at times)
- Improve the interaction between LDB tooltip and combat status.
The tooltip will now hide if the player enters combat (previously it would not show if in combat but would stay visible if it was shown before combat started)
Bugfixes:
- Ticket 382: It is now possible to change / copy / reset profiles when the source and destination profile have different frame styles "Graphical" vs "Minimal".
An automatic /reloadui will happen if needed to spawn the respective secure frames.
- Ticket 383: Modify the map data caching a little to correct an elusive digsite list initialization error.
- Stop the artifact and digsite frames from 'snapping' randomly back to their initial location when the user drags them to re-arrange on screen.
- Ticket 380: Prevent and try to correct corrupted dig site stats saved variables.
v1.8.17
-------
Features:
- Keep the distance indicator from completely disappearing when the survey button is visible and undocked so users can find the anchor to move it around.
Bugfixes:
- Prevent taint from moving the survey button in combat.
- Prevent taint from changing some Archy configuration options in combat as well.
- Update the digsite cache when users toggle the 'filter by continent' option on the tooltip so it can refresh 'on the fly' and show all continent data without a reload.
v1.8.16
-------
Bugfixes:
- Audio and text alerts not firing for subsequent solves of the same common artifact after the first time it's solved during a game session.
- "Mummified Monkey Paw" rare Tolvir project not getting counted as solved in overall progress LDB tooltip.

v1.8.14
-------
Features:
- Add a line with cumulative rares/common artifacts solved across all races to the archaeology overview LDB tooltip.
Bugfixes:
- Change Archy delayed initialization from PLAYER_ALIVE to QUEST_LOG_UPDATE to solve issues with failed Archy initialization when reloading interface (/reloadui)
- Change Archy caching of map data to after PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD to possibly prevent a conflict with BigWigs module enable.
v1.8.13
-------
Features:
- Improve easy cast survey (double-right-click to survey). Temporarily suspend 'click to move' when Archy is shown if it was enabled, restore it when hiding Archy.
- Improve battlefield mini map digsite blobs. No longer necessary to toggle Archy if the mini map wasn't visible.
- Add an option to prevent Archy automating the display of digsites on worldmap/battlefield map and minimap tracking.
v1.8.12
-------
Features:
- Additional LDB tooltip mode: Overall Archaeology progress; click the Archy tooltip header to alternate.
-- Added a hint on LDB tooltip for interactive (clickable) regions.
-- Added an artifact database (current for 4.3.2) and artifact name localization through LibBabble-Artifacts-3.0.
-- When showing the Overal progress tooltip click a race name to show the rares missing for that race.
-- Click on an artifact name from the missing list to get the project spell link.
- Toggle minimap digsite tracking, worldmap and battlefield mini map digsite blobs alongside Archy; use '/archy stealth' or shift-click LDB if you want to hide onscreen lists but keep Archy active and blobs showing.
- Don't update the skill bar if the toon doesn't have Archaeology.
- Re-add digsite tracking on battlefield mini map when Archy is active.
- Do not easy-cast survey if the player has a fishing pole equipped to avoid breaking fishing addons.
- Better handling of combat status for easy-cast.
- Middle click on LDB/minimap icon can be used to toggle the Archaeology UI instead of only to show it.
Bugfixes:
- 'dig sites frame gone missing'; this would happen if the player logged on after having toggled 'show digsites' off from the world map in the previous session.
- 'error on logon' for ptBR game client; in the process pulling in updated LibBabble-DigSites-3.0 ptBR translations by Jizar and Sapolau.
- Play 'ready to solve' sound and/or announce once per artifact for the session instead of once per race.

v1.8.11
-------
Bugfixes:
- Error when Archy is enabled on a character that doesn't have the Archaeology profession.
- Archy using keystones for solving regardless of user selection.

(I don't remember if I had it set on or not on this toon.) I went to configure it and looked in the profiles and saw 'warrior', so I chose it. It immediately threw this error: Filed as ticket 382 at the development site.

But the Archy window, itself, has things to be clicked on - the various bars, the solve button, etc. What I'm hoping is that the area that is the window that is *not* explicitly a button can be clicked through. It's a little bigger than the items it encloses, visually, and I have the 'spare' area overlapping so I can save screen space. I'm not sure if I'm explaining it adequately, and one can't include screenshots in comments. *sigh* thanks for the response!

Digsite pane says 3/3, and hasn't updated to show the new one (which seems to be slitherblade shore, according to my world map). Reloading the UI ends up with no digsites window displaying, and no digsites listed in tooltip. ETA: I just went into combat and the undocked survey button/distance ball suddenly showed up, but no digsite list. Last edited by Barleduq : 03-11-12 at 12:37 AM.

Is this correct behavior? Or perhaps rather, which is the correct behavior, to have the button/ball showing whenever archy is showing, or to only see it when standing in a digsite? Turning filtering ON again didn't remove it. I hate intermittent bugs. There is a small quirk with the survey button that doesn't produce errors and is irrelevant to it's docked or undocked status. When entering the game or reloading the interface, if you had the Archy lists (digsites + artifacts) showing when you logged off, there's a good chance the survey button will not show. The way to bring it back is to just toggle Archy (left click the minimap button twice). (Or to hide Archy before logging off and show it again when you logon). I keep saying to myself that I should correct this but it's such a small inconvenience that I keep putting it off As to the expected behavior. The distance bubble should be fully visible and with a distance number showing when you've just done a survey so it can show you when you're in the 'green', 'yellow', 'red' distance. If it is docked then the bubble will show after a survey and hide after a dig. If it is undocked it will show after a survey but only 'fade' after the dig so you can click it to more the button around.

Barleduq Ruler of All I Survey   Forum posts: 37 File comments: 75 Uploads: 0	On a completely different note... FWIW, I don't have a middle mouse button (low end gamer is I). Not saying you should change it, just be aware that not everyone has higher end stuff. (or even middle-end stuff... most of my computer equipment is hand-me-downs and/or salvaged.) Also, control-left-clicking does nothing for me. I do expect this last is my issue - possibly not playing well with the fact that I have the mouse on the left, not the right. But figured I'd mention it, along with other things, in case this is something that is actually not my fault. Thanks for all your work!

I just tried going back on the toon that saw the problems. I now see things for both continents. As far as I recall, I didn't change anything, and the current changelog file claims 1.8.17. So o.O ... The only oddness is that I'm *not* standing in a digsite, and when I signed on there was no survey button (i've undocked it on this char, and it gets much bigger then! ) - but when I changed the interface/addons/config settings to NOT filter the tooltip to continent, suddenly the distanceball/button appeared even tho I'm still not standing in a digsite.
