- /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.
Error: attempt to index field '?' (a number value) at line 1932.
waypoints[1] was a bare number instead of a coordinate pair {x,y}.
Added type(waypoints[1]) ~= 'table' guard alongside existing type(waypoints)
check. Also simplified firstWaypoint access since the guard ensures it's a table.
The underlying data issue (flat numbers vs coordinate pairs) is in the DB
and should be tracked separately — this fix prevents the crash only.
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.
- Phase 2: marked ⚠️ with known spec test failures (quarantined)
- Phase 3-5: marked ⚠️ as implemented, not in-game verified
- Removed ✅ COMPLETE claims that overstate test coverage
- PrintTargetCoords: add world coords computed from zone coord + uiMapId
- _CollectObjective debug: show spawnList[id] zone, firstCoord, isLearned per entry
- _ResolveArrowUiMapId: stop redirecting 1241→1941. With zoneDB now
mapping areaId 3431→uiMapId 1241, and player on uiMapId 1241, keeping
1241 as 1241 ensures both player and target world coords are computed
through the same ASCENSION_ZONE_BOUNDS[1241] calibration (1600x1066.67,
-2721, 8433.94). This gives correct ~169yd distance and bearing.
- 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
AlreadySpawned kept stale entries after UnloadQuestFrames ran.
The draw path for incomplete objectives never cleared it — only
completed objectives called _UnloadAlreadySpawnedIcons. Added
clear at the start of the spawnList draw path so _DetermineIconsToDraw
sees an empty AlreadySpawned and recreates icons each update cycle.
The monster handler replaced spawns with learned data when
prioritizeMyData was enabled but didn't set isLearned=true on
monsterData. The prioritizeMyData filter in PopulateObjective
checked 'if not spawnData.isLearned' and suppressed the spawn,
causing pins to not render after quest abandon+re-accept cycle.
QuestieDB:GetNPC and GetObject cache results in _QuestieDB.npcCache /
_QuestieDB.objectCache. When LearnNPC / LearnObject injects new spawn
coordinates into npcDataOverrides / objectDataOverrides, the cached
objects still hold stale (empty) spawn data. PopulateObjective rebuilds
spawnList by calling GetNPC/GetObject, but gets the cached empty data.
Fix: clear the relevant cache entry immediately after live injection so
the next GetNPC/GetObject call rebuilds with fresh override data.
This is the root cause of 'pins not showing on kill' — the spawnList
was rebuilt, but from a stale cache that didn't include the new learned
coordinates.
1. _InvalidateSpawnListsForNPC was setting objective.AlreadySpawned = nil,
causing _DetermineIconsToDraw to crash on nil-index when trying to draw
updated pins. The xpcall wrapper in UpdateObjectiveNotes swallowed the
error silently, so no icons appeared.
Fix: unload existing map/minimap icons explicitly, then set
AlreadySpawned = {} (empty table) instead of nil. Also clear
hasRegisteredTooltips so tooltips refresh.
2. Added GetAchievementNumCriteria defensive shim for Ascension servers
with incomplete achievement databases. Returns 0 for invalid IDs
instead of hard-erroring in Blizzard's WorldMapFrame.
Two fixes for QuestieLearner real-time pin rendering:
1. _MergeOverride now skips empty tables (IsEmptyTable guard).
QuestieLearner stores spawns={} before any coords are captured.
Previously _MergeOverride treated {} as valid data and replaced the
base DB's real spawn coordinates with an empty table, breaking pins
for all NPCs that had been seen but not killed (mouseovers, etc.).
2. _InvalidateSpawnListsForNPC triggers after LearnNPC adds new spawn data.
The quest objective system caches spawnList once per objective.
When a kill adds new coordinates, the cached list is stale.
The new helper:
- Scans all active quest objectives for references to the NPC
- Clears objective.spawnList and objective.AlreadySpawned
- Calls QuestieQuest:UpdateQuest to rebuild pins with fresh data
This makes learned pins appear in real-time without /reload.
7 macros for manual in-game testing: stats, target/mouseover dump,
zone info, debug toggle, force learn, and data re-injection.
Each fits within WoW's 255-char macro limit.
When UpdateNearestTargets uses ZoneDB:GetAreaIdByUiMapId(946) to verify
player zone, it returns 668 (Northshire) instead of 3430 (Sunstrider).
UiMapIdOverrides[946] was set to 668 for Northshire, so 946 always
resolves to Northshire's areaId even on Sunstrider Isle.
Added direct cache entries for both 1241→3430 and 946→3430 in the
uiMapIdToAreaIdCache (the fast-path lookup table) so GetAreaIdByUiMapId
returns the correct Sunstrider Isle areaId regardless of which map ID
the game returns.
Root cause: creatureLevels entry for 'Uneasy Citizen' was {} (empty table)
instead of {minLevel, maxLevel, rank}, so creatureLevels[name][1] was nil.
Added early-return guard in _GetLevelString: if creatureLevels[name] is
falsy or has no numeric level at index [1], return name unchanged.
Also updated CHANGELOG.md [Unreleased] section with this fix.
- zoneDB.lua: Add [946] = 3430 to UiMapIdOverrides so GetCurrentZoneId()
returns 3430 (Sunstrider Isle areaId) even when the game returns uiMapId 946
(ghost/loading map). Previously 946 had no override, causing zone lookups to
fall through and return 946 instead of the real zone, breaking arrow distance
calculation and target filtering.
- QuestieArrow.lua: UpdateNearestTargets uses QuestiePlayer:GetCurrentUiMapId()
(backed by C_Map.GetBestMapForUnit) for player position. When that returns an
invalid/ghost map (946/947/0), fall back to ZoneDB lookup via the actual
zoneId. This ensures the arrow gets real world coordinates regardless of
whether the world map is open or closed.
Also includes per-frame debug output when debugArrow profile is enabled.
- Tooltip.lua: Add type guard 'if type(objList) ~= table then break end'
before iterating learnedNpc[10] and learnedObj[10] in both m_/NPC and o_/object
paths. Prevents 'attempt to index field questData (a string value)' error
when the questData field is unexpectedly a string instead of a table.
The original loop used 'for questId, objList in next, learnedNpc[10]' which
iterates key-value pairs in insertion order. The _AddToArray helper stores
values as sequential array elements (tbl[key]=value via table.insert), but
the iteration was treating it as a questId->objList map. Fixed to use
ipairs-style iteration with a type check for robustness.
Demote GetQuest/GetQuestObjectives 'quest doesn't exist in QuestLogCache'
messages from Questie:Error to Questie:Debug(DEBUG_DEVELOP). These were
firing repeatedly in chat for quest IDs like 595, 959, 254048 during normal
play. Messages are now only visible when developer debug mode is active.
