Addon Conflict with RareScanner

Open LiangYuxuan opened this issue 5 years ago • 4 comments

Running Software (issues missing this information will be deleted):

  • Addon version: 8.3.1
  • Server patch: Build 8.3.0.33369

Have you read the changelog? (please don't waste our time) Yes.

Describe the bug PetTracker fails to share the world map tracking dropdown menu with RareScanner, because RareScanner hooks the original menu but PetTracker replace it and build a new one.

To Reproduce

  1. Enable RareScanner only and find dropdown menu works.
  2. Enable PetTracker and find the menu replace by PetTracker, where RareScanner options are gone.

Expected behaviour PetTracker and RareScanner should share the same dropdown menu and work together :)

Screenshots

Error Logs No errors.

Additional context You can find RareScanner's implementation in RareScanner/MapPlugin/RsWorldMapHooks.lua. It simply uses hooks to implement this.

Yeah, hooking the original dropdown taints the game, I ain't doing that.

World Map Tracking Enhanced can be a good workaround

World Map Tracking Enhanced can be a good workaround

Yeah, the DropDown from PetTracker will break every AddOn (for years and still) that hooks the "Default" DropDown menu like RareScanner or any other addon that adds QOL features to the Original Filter menu!
Also ElvUI Skinning is broken for the DropDown menu if PetTracker is active.
Also PetTracker Dropdown breaks the skinning of World Map Tracking Enhanced's dropdown menu!

AND overall it is NOT Possible to disable the broken dropdown menu...

Sadly there is not really alternative for the "Enemy Team Ability Bar" i know, thats the only reason i sill use it ^^
