- /qdrift: one-shot diagnostic that traces the full player-position chain
(GetCurrentPlayerPosition -> GetWorldCoordinatesFromZone), checks
mapIdToUiMapId entries, shows pin world coords vs player world coords,
and verifies zone center bounds
- Throttled [QD] PIN debug in drawMinimapPin (1/sec) showing pinWorld,
playerWorld, distance, mapRadius, and diff values
- Enhanced [QD] CONV/CONV2 debug in GetCurrentPlayerPosition showing
raw coords, world coords after conversion, and zone coords after
back-conversion
Purpose: diagnose why minimap pins follow the player after the areaId fix
Adds _ComputeZoneSpaceDiff to HBD.lua that computes minimap pin
projection in the parent zone's coordinate space (Eversong 1941) instead
of using the world-coordinate delta. On Ascension, GetPlayerMapPosition
returns Eversong-relative coords for players on Sunstrider, but
GetWorldCoordinatesFromZone(1241) treats them as Sunstrider-relative,
producing a wrong player world position and causing pins to drift or
move opposite to the player.
Fix: (1) Store original zone coords on minimap pins at registration
(AddMinimapIconMap). (2) In drawMinimapPin, recover player's actual
Eversong zone coords by reversing the 1241-bounds conversion. (3)
Convert pin's 1241 zone coord to Eversong zone coord via 1241-world.
(4) Delta in Eversong zone-space, scale to pixels using parent-width/mapRadius.
Falls back to existing world-space math for pins without zone coords.
- Fix: isSunstrider block in _MergeSpawnEvidence now checks IsAscensionProtected
before writing learner data to npcDataOverrides. Without this guard, each Mana
Wyrm kill overwrote AscensionDB's z1241=5 data with learner z3431 coords.
- Fix: Clustering disabled for zone 1241 (Sunstrider Isle) in _DrawObjectiveIcons
so all 5 AscensionDB spawn pins display individually instead of collapsing to 2.
- Fix: Ghost pin loop in AvailableQuests.lua -- 'while frames[i]' was iterating a
string-keyed table with a numeric index (never iterated). Changed to pairs().
- Fix: NormalizeSpawnZoneKey now uses ZoneDB.areaIdToUiMapId for all zones so
learner evidence is stored under map IDs (e.g. 1241) not area IDs (e.g. 3431),
matching AscensionDB's key space. Applied in LearnNPC and _StoreGuidSpawnEvidence.
- Fix: isSunstrider detection in _MergeSpawnEvidence updated from hardcoded
zoneId==3431 check to IsSunstriderNativeZone() since zone IDs are now normalized
to map IDs at storage time.
- zoneDB: remap areaId 3431 → uiMapId 1241 (Sunstrider Isle) so quest 8335
pins render on correct map instead of Eversong Woods (1941)
- compat/HBD: remove 1241→1941 redirect (Sunstrider pins now handled by zoneDB)
- compiler: QuerySingle override check skips empty tables (next() guard) so
spawn data overrides don't fall through to nil base DB values
- MapIconTooltip: nil guards for minLevel/maxLevel to prevent crashes
- Map/QuestieMap: remove stale 1241→1941 redirect comment
- HBD.lua: Cache GetPlayerWorldPosition/GetPlayerZonePosition at 50ms
intervals instead of hammering GetPlayerMapPosition() every frame.
Invalidate cache on PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD and ZONE_CHANGED_* events.
Expected ~97% reduction in C API position calls (45,570 -> ~1,200 / 10min).
- zoneDB.lua: Replace O(n) linear scan in GetAreaIdByUiMapId with an
O(1) reverse lookup cache (uiMapIdToAreaIdCache) built at Initialize().
Cache is kept in sync by ApplyCustomZones and name-match fallback now
caches its result so subsequent calls are also O(1).
- Tooltip.lua: Throttle GameTooltip OnUpdate hook to 100ms intervals
(was firing every frame at 60-144 Hz). Added _tooltipLastText cache
to avoid redundant GetText() + CountTooltip() calls when nothing changed.
- QuestieArrow.lua: Hoist _HasMissingCompletedFlag, _GetCompleteIconType,
_CollectFinisherSpawns, and _CollectObjective out of _CollectQuestTargets
to module-level functions. These were re-created as closures on every
UpdateNearestTargets call (1 Hz). Shared per-cycle context is published
via _arrow_* module upvalues to avoid closure capture overhead.
- QuestieLearnerComms.lua: Four micro-optimizations:
(1) Reduce ProcessQueues ticker 0.2s -> 0.5s (still 7x faster than
minChatInterval of 3.5s).
(2) Cache hidden channel ID at init; lazy refresh on disconnect.
(3) Drop LibDeflate compress level 9 -> 1 (fraction of CPU cost).
(4) O(1) messageCacheCount counter replaces O(n) pairs() size scan.
