achievement tracking

[logaholic]

just wondering if it can get fixed, as im sure its a easy fix. Or at least what needs to be changed in the code while awaiting a new version to come out:

Currently when trying to track the achievement "Got my mind on my money" the carbonite tracker displays the number in copper and would rather not see it display 755750466 / 1000000000

And im only assuming its a easy fix for it to display 75575g 4s 66c / 100000g

edit: just having it show that large copper number is kinda demeaning

Demeaning? Nonsense!

If the goal is 10000 gold, and you already have 75000+, you have a bigger problem than "it displays in coppers!"

Doable in the front end but perhaps changing one API could also work (not tested):

local gold = {
  [1176] = 1, -- 100g
  [1177] = 1, -- 1000g
  [1178] = 1, -- 5000g
  [1180] = 1, -- 10000g
  [1181] = 1, -- 25000g
  [5455] = 1, -- 50000g
  [5456] = 1, -- 100000g
  [1182] = 1, -- 10000g (quest rewards)
  [5752] = 1, -- 30000g (quest rewards)
}
local oAchCritInfo = GetAchievementCriteriaInfo
function GetAchievementCriteriaInfo(id, i, ...)
  if not i then return oAchCritInfo(id, i, ...) end
  local ach = {oAchCritInfo(id, i, ...)}
  if gold[id] then
    ach[4] = GetDenominationsFromCopper(ach[4])
    ach[5] = GetDenominationsFromCopper(ach[5])
  end
  return unpack(ach)
end

Only problem I can think of is that the addons can expect number values from these specific achievements yet with this override they will get strings and may fail and result in errors -still trying won't hurt. ;P

That achievement is actually for looting 100,000g. For some odd reason if you track it in Carbonites watch window the amounts appears in all copper denomination. If you track it through Blizzards objectives tracker, however, it appears in the proper g, s, c display. Weird.
