Vehicle testing

[zork]

Currently testing vehicles. Looking good so far. I am using oUF_D3Orbs2 and oUF 1.3.11

I had one vehicle with ManaMax = 0. So check your code if you divide something through ManaMax. You need an exception for this case.

Question: How can I disable the Blizzard Vehicle Castbar? (screenshot) Currently both castbars are shown.

Spawn a pet frame, or disable it manually. The blizzard castbar you see is the pet's.

Hmm, but I am spawning a petframe already.

Disabling the PetCastBar does the trick though.

  
        --disable the vehicle castbar
	PetCastingBarFrame:UnregisterAllEvents()
	PetCastingBarFrame.Show = function() end
	PetCastingBarFrame:Hide()

Maybe you can test it yourself at this daily quest (Wyrmm temple defense). The player is switched to the pet correctly but the petcastbar becomes visible upon that point.

you must spawn a casting bar on the pet unit frame to make the blizzard one disappear

[zork]

Thanks. So I can either spawn a pet castbar (that I need to hide after, since I don't want it) or disable it manually by unregistering the Blizzard PetCastbar.

Is there any way to check if the player is on a vehicle currently?

Don't use UnitInVehicle(unit) because it will return true if you're just a passenger, which doesn't have any specific UI.

I needed such a functinality aswell. I made myself a temp variable and registered the vehicleentered and the vehicleexited events to a frame. I set the temp variable to 0 and 1 depending on the event and do some other stuff.

I do this because I need to refresh my orb glow models upon entering a vehicle. Btw...arg1 can deliver "player" if you only want to track the event called by player.
