yeah, looks like soulbound broke this morning. tooltip is working well tho!!

sorry about that. the soulbound flag comes from the tooltip during a bag scan and when i changed the tooltip code i think i broke that. i think i've fixed it now (it broke the default categories as well), i just need to double check.

Trying to add a rule for my mini pets,

pt ( Misc.Minipet.Normal )

spaces are not allowed between the function name and the bracket, use pt( ... )

However, your 'Formula' text is not LUA code. Parsing your own language is CPU-intensive and rather inflexible. Maybe, it would be better to allow user to enter LUA code that is evaluated as a boolean function?

it's half parsed, then dumped to LUA to evaluate the logic. ie, all the simple stuff, item number, location, quality is parsed and replaced with "true" or "false", the PT, tooltip and Outfit functions are partially parsed to reformat them and then the whole thing is sent to LUA for logic processing so it'll only process whats required to get a "true" result.

to give the raw stuff to the users would require them to use code like select( 6, GetItemInfo( hyperlink ) ) == "INVTYPE_HAND" and even if i put the item id into the environment an item check would look like this ( string.find( itemid, "11456:" ) or string.find( itemid, "2356:" ) ) .

i'm happy with whats there now but if things change i'll look at ways to change it.

Also, the rule system makes default categories obsolete. IMO, instead of using them it would be better to add an option to create default set of rules that replace them?

yeah i know, i've been tossing up whether to remove them all together or not and just insert a bunch of default rules instead - the upside is that users would then have examples to look at, not sure if theres a downside

Tried it yesterday using the link posted up top. It would let me add insert new sections. NOT new categories I was trying to make up....just new sections to use the already built in categories.

put the category you want onto any bar then click on it's bar menu>assigned category (your category)>move to bar>either enter the last bar+1 or move the slider to the top and it should create a new row, once it's done that then you can keep moving it up one row at a time

(i'm at work so the menu choices here may be slighty wrong but you should get the general drift)

Is there a way to give some example rules or a readme on how to create?

here http://www.wowace.com/wiki/ArkInventory/Rules

added the link to the first post as well

anyone that uses ClosetGnome able to send me their ClosetGnome.lua savedvariables file? the codes done i just want to confirm the data structure of the DB they use. arkayenro at hot mail dot com

yeah, its not there. i looked. i searhced my entire harddrive (with search, not file by file). not there.

\World of Warcraft\WTF\Account\<accountname>\<servername>\<charactername>\SavedVariables

should be in there i would think if it's a per character file (which most outfit mods are).

Quote from jerry247 »

but name() does not.

name() is now fixed

also things that were moved to consumables (halanni wiskey, nagrand cherry and medicinal drake essence specifically) rest is looking good :)

is that a good or bad thing? maybe the pt categories were updated?

bleh, don't mind me, i'm a bit dense sometimes. i figured out what you meant and i'm looking at recoding it that way, well sort of.

getting error
Interface\AddOns\ArkInventory\ArkInventory.lua:6072: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)
with latest from svn, when i use outfit() and name() is still not working

i've fixed the error in the conversion, just haven't uploaded as wow ended early last night so i didnt get a chance to test the changes. since then i've ripped apart the rules code (again) so i need to test them all (again) before i upload.

whatever, long story short i found closetgnome.lua, lol.

yes, except you sent me the mod code and not your saved variables :)

now that you can see lua files can you go back into those directories and see it if shows up?

Quote from jerry247 »

was the 2nd email the wrong one too? i'll dig around again after work.

yeah it was, simple way to check is to open it up (in wordpad) first, it should have a bunch of slot names, like head, shoulder, feet, etc, etc and values on the other side. like a big nested table.

getting an error using outfit()
arkinv_rules.lua 979 attempt to index a field '?' (a nil value)

try the latest svn version, that error should go away and outfit() will work (i installed closetgnome to make sure this time)
