As for the first issue, do you happen to be using either the German or French client? There is currently a known issue where numbers are saved with a comma instead of a decimal with those clients (i.e. 1,500 instead of 1.500) - this will cause such a parse error. The only solution currently is to delete your settings files prior to loading the plugin, however I'm currently working out a way to compensate for this issue.

The second issue should be easy enough to fix - Open up Palantir's options window, and on the "Main" page, scroll to the bottom and set the cooldowns to the desired amount. This has already been fixed on the U.S. beta server edition (i.e. bullroarer) so that the cooldowns are automatically set to zero.

thank you for this program, liking it alot.
I do have a small request if you happen to have time to add it? could you please either add in an option to move the colored bars Verticly as well (up and down), similar to how you have the ability to move the quickbars up and down.

Either that, or could you tell me if there is a 1 area change in the code I can change manualy to move it up and down myself, then reload it to drop it down a bit, puting it closer to my hotkeys? Thanks again.

Thanks for your replay, i playe the German Client on Morthond.
I think it works better in the next version.
I love the palantir Plugin.
Greetings Sardor85.

Way ahead of you Temil

All you need to do is hit Ctrl+\ (or whatever you have your UI positioning set to) and you'll see a standard positioning box labled "Palantir". Use it as you would for any other UI element, and put it exactly where you want it.

Temil2006

Ahh, didn't notice that it was movable.. and here I was, poking around in your code to try and find a way to move around that window.. lol.. (almost like poking at a angry bear, with a very short stick.. "what was I thinking")

Anyways, thanks for that..

on a side note, i did find a little bug, not sure if anyone else reported it yet. When the hotkeys popup for you to click on when you are poisioned, hurt, etc. If you left click on the popup to use it, about 1/5th of the time it causes the number 1 key to stop working for hotkey #1. If you drag that hotkey skill to another hotkey slot, then back to the first hotkey, it will start working again. At first I was thinking "maybe it's the UI I'm using" .. which is the mini-slim one, but nope, I converted all my UI back to default, and same thing. It's kind of random, but I can normaly cause it to happen every 1/5th of the time. If I dont click on the popup item, skill, etc that comes up for me to use, then everything will be fine, it's only when I left click on the item, skill, etc to use. Hope this all helps.


Oh, and as I feature request (or addon, or whatever) .. would be really, really nice to see an enimy health, bar as well in the layout, like next to our own health having current target health .. so that everything is easily monitored, and layed out together.. just an idea. =) keep up the good work, and thx for all this.

Only about eleventy billion of them...

This is a well-known bug affecting all quickslot-based plugins (and it's even listed in Known Issues above).

Apparently Turbine are testing a fix for this over on Bullroarer right now, though I haven't tried it out myself...

Digital_Utopia

You're certainly not the first I've had this conversation with It really is kinda ironic considering the main reason why I did things that way was to make Palantir as intuitive as possible. Apparently however, players seem to expect plugins to behave differently lol

as Mirality so bluntly pointed out , it's currently a known issue with the Lua quickslots themselves and should be fixed on bullroarer. If you have the bullroarer client, I've already released a "bullroarer edition" of Palantir if you would like to check it out. It has a slightly different plugin name, including settings - so it won't affect the live version

Believe me if that information was available in the API, you'd already have it. Sadly right now it isn't, but I hope by the end of the month to have Palantir in a position where adding additional information will be as easy as adjusting a few lines of code.

on creepside Palantir crashes Lotro on load

Ok so I love this Plugin sooo much maybe too much. Cause it gave me an error last night and would not load the whole program. Which forced me to re adjust my ui I hate doing that. So heres the little error I got and it is account wide not just a single toon.

...Rings Online\Plugins\DigitalUtopia\Palantir\Main.lua:62: Unable to parse file!
...ne\Plugins\DigitalUtopia\Palantir\OptionsManage r.lua:179: attempt to index field 'toSaveMain' (a nil value)

That second line was repeated about 10-12 time over. Just thought you would only need the first two.

Thanks,

Digital_Utopia

Since it seems you've used it with no problems in the past, I'm going to take a guess that this isn't related to the German/French client issue, and instead, something else is to blame, that not only affects loading but also saving. I suggest first deleting the existing PluginData, which will be found in /The Lord of the Rings Online/PluginData/<account name>/All Servers/ and consists of the following files:

Scope.PluginData
Main.PluginData
Text.PluginData
Color.PluginData

You'll have to redo your settings, but it should then function properly. Let me know if you run into any other problems.

Unfortunately at the time being I cannot test on creepside, and until now I had no real reason for doing so, as yours is the first report of this happening. I will look into it as soon as I can.

Erom

Thanks! Works fine now. I'm going to try and find what cause the issue. If I can get it to duplicate I will let you know.

Digital_Utopia

That would be greatly appreciated. You're not the first who has reported such an issue, but there hasn't been more than two or three, and in all cases what I suggested has fixed the issue. If you do manage to duplicate the issue again, please attach those 4 pluginData files to an email, and send it to [email protected].

That way I can see exactly what it's having trouble parsing.

Thanks again, and I'm glad you got it working

Hello,

On time after installation it works.
The next time it send an error message and don't load.

...Rings Online\Plugins\DigitalUtopia\Palantir\Main.lua:73: Unable to parse file!

No matter which character.

German Client.
Plugins:
Palantir
FilterBag

All other plugins works fine.

I've changed the line 73 from

tempLoad = Turbine.PluginData.Load(scope,settingsOne);

to

tempLoad = Turbine.PluginData.Load(scope,"settingsOne");

Now it load's and work.

But no saved variables are stored.
