The cutoff hid icons beyond its yard value before checking the minimap's
visible radius, so the default 100 hid icons that were clearly on the
minimap (view radius is 133-466 yd by zoom). Now it only clips icons
outside the visible circle: HBD's pin renderer gates the cutoff on
dist > 1, and QuestieMap FadeLogic raises the effective cutoff to at
least the current minimap view radius via new HBDPins:GetMinimapRadius().
Reverts the previous approach of stripping char.complete (which mutated
completed-quest data). Correct rule: a quest in the player's log is active
and should show its turn-in location regardless of the completed flag.
- AddFinisher now trusts the live quest log: if the quest is in
currentQuestlog and not failed, the '?' finisher draws regardless of the
(possibly stale, e.g. prior-prestige) char.complete flag. No completion
data is modified. Reverts the AcceptQuest and QUEST_QUERY_COMPLETE strips.
- Learner: OnTargetChanged now learns quest-giver/turn-in NPC spawns
(it previously only cached the GUID), so targeting a turn-in NPC records
its location. OnQuestComplete/OnQuestTurnedIn fall back to the 'target'
unit when the 'npc' gossip unit is already cleared, so the finisher NPC
is reliably learned on turn-in.

A quest completed in a prior Ascension prestige stays in char.complete.
On re-accept it is active in the log again, but the stale completion flag
was never cleared — and AddFinisher only draws the turn-in '?' when
not char.complete[questId]. So the finisher was suppressed and the quest
showed '(Complete)' with stale objective text while standing at the
turn-in NPC (e.g. Aggression 8334 at Lanthan Perilon 15281).
An active in-log quest is now kept out of char.complete:
- QuestieQuest:AcceptQuest clears char.complete[questId] on accept.
- The async QUEST_QUERY_COMPLETE handler also strips any quest currently
in QuestiePlayer.currentQuestlog, so the server's completed list can't
re-flag a re-accepted quest.
Restores the turn-in '?' and normal objective tracking. selene 0 errors;
busted 145 successes / same 7 pre-existing failures.
#7: Completed quests kept showing as available '!'. The server completed-
quest list arrives async via QUEST_QUERY_COMPLETE, often after available
quests were first drawn. Recalculate available quests once char.complete is
populated by that event so completed quests are removed (also clears the
already-completed subset of #8).
#9: An accepted quest's available '!' could linger on the minimap until
/reload. UnloadQuestFramesByDataType unloaded the frame but left its name in
questIdFrames and _G; it now removes those references so the icon is torn
down immediately on both map and minimap.
#10: Added 'Hide repeatable quests below level 60' (Icons tab, off by
default) to hide repeatable available quests (e.g. the Ascension Callboard)
from map/minimap until level 60. Enforced in _DrawQuestIfAvailable and
ShouldBeHidden so existing minimap pins are removed too; reappear at 60.

- Use 3.3.5a-native Minimap:GetViewRadius() (instance method) instead of
C_Minimap.GetViewRadius (nil on 3.3.5a) with C_Minimap fallback. Returns
116.67 at zoom 5 instead of the hardcoded 125 from the broken lookup table.
- Replace minimapWidth = (GetWidth()/2) * (mapRadius/155.52) with
minimapWidth = GetWidth() * GetScale() / 2. The new formula yields the
actual half-width of the visible minimap in screen pixels, the correct
multiplier for diffX*minimapWidth when diffX is normalized by mapRadius.
- Comment out (do not delete) all QDMATH / UPDATE entering / ICON debug
blocks as --[[ DEBUG: ... --]] for future regression investigation.
- Remove loaded debug scripts from Questie-X.toc and add to .gitignore
(drift_test, radius_debug, spawn_calibration, etc.). Scripts preserved
in tests/ for reference.
- Add .gitignore entries for tests/ lowercase variant (case-sensitive
on Linux/macOS) and additional debug script patterns.
- Update CHANGELOG.md and docs/changelog.html with fix entry.
- Refresh handoff.md to reflect RESOLVED status and iteration 4 history.
Verified: pins now stay anchored to world positions across all zoom levels
on both Stock UI and ElvUI. Per-frame diffX ~0.35 yards during walking
translates to ~0.21 pixels of pin movement (correct for 1 yard of world
movement).
The uiMapID==1241 branch in drawMinimapPin was an experimental overlay
that ran BEFORE the standard minimap projection and rotation transforms.
It duplicated the projection math while bypassing the rotation matrix,
used a different edge-clamp path, and is the primary suspect for why
pins visually follow the player on Sunstrider Isle.
The standard minimap path (handle rotation -> adapt delta to mapRadius
-> apply shape mask -> float-on-edge or clamp) already handles all
pins uniformly regardless of zone. Removing this experimental branch
lets 1241 pins use the same proven path as every other zone.
Also cleaned up:
- stale lastInstanceId reference in throttled PIN debug trace
- unnecessary data.uiMapID guard in QuestieDebugMinimapPin gate
- Sunstrider-specific minimap debug block in UpdateMinimapPins
- /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
Root cause of minimap pin drift on Sunstrider Isle: on Ascension,
GetCurrentMapAreaID() returns 3430 for Eversong, but mapIdToUiMapId only
had the WotLK mapping (463→1941). This meant actualUiMapId was nil in
GetCurrentPlayerPosition(), causing the parent→child zone conversion to
be skipped entirely. Eversong-zone coords passed through tagged as
uiMapID 1241, producing wrong world positions and pin drift.
Fix: add Ascension areaId→uiMapId mappings (3430→1941, 3431→1241) to
mapIdToUiMapId after UiMapData init. Now the conversion path triggers
correctly: Eversong coords → world coords (via 1941 bounds) →
Sunstrider zone coords (via 1241 bounds).
One-line fix in Compat.lua. No changes to HBD.lua or projection logic.
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.
