Mind Control and Abilities

Thank you Scott for your hard work and time. I was using nUI in Naxx 10 man for the 1st time over the weekend, and i noticed that when i had to mind control the 2 adds for instructor i could not find the pet bar in order to taunt off the mob from another player, my question is there something I'm missing or can it be turned on. BTW the toon I was using was a pally OT. If you can shed some light on this for me it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I've had a couple of people report this issue and I'm not sure yet if it's a nUI problem or a Bliz problem. I do know there appears to be some class related issues in WoW with pet bars and such, but don't know all of the detail yet.

It would help a lot if you could take a screen shot when this happens and then post it to this thread as an attachment (there's a "Manage Attachements" button on the message editor you can use to upload it to the thread.

Then I can see all of the detail in the UI and try to sort out what's happening.

I can do this but it will be a week before i can show you the pally control, but in the meantime I could try and MC with my priest to see if i can pinpoint the issue and send you a screen shot. Also it might just be me in trying to find the location of the bar in the heat of battle with this amazing UI. Like I said this was my 1st attempt in a raid and finding the MC bar before I get crushed was not the easiest thing in the world.

Thanks

I might have narrowed this down Scott. I believe this might be cause by the pally auras bar location. I did my check with mind control on my priest and the controls for the mob you are controlling are located in the same location as the pally auras bars. Not sure if this helps but it could be a start.

I know I have code in place that will merge the stance bar (warrior stances, pally auras, druid forms and DK presences) with the pet bar. I don't know if that works with the possession bar. That could be the issue.

On the merged bars, the stance bar is placed to the left of the pet bar and they all merge into one bar... I just can't recall if that happens with the possession bar, too, or not. You might check that... any chance it was all one bar and you just overlooked the buttons? Or that there were a couple of "empty" button spots on the bar?

In the meantime, I'll look at the code when I get home this evening and see what I can see... it might be that the possession bar isn't merging properly.

A while back i had posted about a quest where you gain a pet and the bar did not appear. It was the same as the problem with the bag bar that would appear every once and awhile where the bar would extend but there would be no buttons in it. Don't know if that ll help you narrow it down but at the same time other quests with pet bars have worked so it seems rather strange.

Yeah -- there are some known class related issues with possession/vehicles in WoW 3.0 -- so it makes it hard to figure out which things I screwed up and which ones I can blame on Bliz.

For now I think I'll just blame everything on Bliz.

The economy, famine, global warming... all of it

Mind control

On my priest i have no problem mind controlling with nUI. Just make sure the action bar is on the main #1 bar and when you mind control it will replace that bar. I was having trouble until i sent screen shots and Scott saw my mistake.

Hope this helps.
