ScrySpy

Version: 1.43

by: Sharlikran [More]

Thanks to the community

I appreciate all the in game bow emotes and thanks. However, so you do not think I am being rude, I only have whisper, group and guild chat enabled. If anyone has tried to say a kind and subtle thank you I didn't see it. You are welcome. If you see me in game on the NA server and wish to say thanks you can whisper me if you like instead. Although I do reload my UI over and over testing changes, so I may not see it. You can try though. Thank you all for using the mod.

I Scry with my little eye...

ScrySpy is a mod I created for tracking Dig Locations similar to how HarvestMap tracks Harvest nodes. If you are satisfied with your elite scrying skills then this is not for you.

ScrySpy collects locations you visit. I have included what locations I found to test with. However, it records and draws the locations you find as you use the mod just like HarvestMap.

If you are like me knowing approximately where I have to go is helpful to me so I thought I'd share.

Requires:

LibMapPins - LibMapPins
LibGPS - LibGPS
Lib3D - Lib3D
CustomCompassPins - CustomCompassPins
LibAddonMenu - LibAddonMenu
LibMapData - LibMapData

Previously asked...

Q: Can you add something to detect when you have already scryed for something, and then you start scrying again for something different?
A: No. Because there is no Scrying functions. I barely came with with what I have. ZOS doesn't want this automated.

The game does not provide a way for me to get the scrying locations based on the blob on the map, the size of the blob, and all the points within the blob. What I do is the best I can do with what I found from ZOS. So I can not detect the location of multiple blobs on a single map or multiple maps and then draw the pins. In addition to that the pins show from all zones regardless of where you are so that's why they show and hide automatically depending on whether or not you are scrying.

Credits:

Shinni for his patience while I asked about why pins didn't draw on the map.
Scootworks for helping me learn both LibMapPins and Lib3D. It allowed me to have map pins in 2D and once you are at the Digsite locations a 3D pin.

1.43

- API Bump

1.42

- Updated algorithm for determining the size of the digstie so more pins are displayed (Still a work in progress)
- Updated showing and hiding pins when there are active digsites
- Updated SavedVariables so be sure to check your settings

1.41

- Address issue with saved variables locations being excluded from the location pool

1.40

- Pre PTS Version

1.39

- Pre PTS Version

1.38

- Added Japanese Translation (snorunt361)
- Updated Spanish Translation (Inval1d)

1.37

- Pre PTS Version

1.36

- Updated method to display notification that the Scrying information is unavailable. You will be told to get closer to the polygon for the digsites and then use /ssrefresh. This mainly happens when you scry in a city since the city map doesn't have the ZOS compass pin assigned to the CITY MAP it is assigned to the ZONE you are in.

1.35

- Part 2 of 3: Better scaling for detecting the polygon's size based on map zoom. There is no API for what I want to do but I'm still investigating how to obtain the location of the polygon better, how big it is, and how to use the map zoom. It's not really anything ZOS designed for mod authors to mess with.

Still working on better alternatives.

1.34

- Part 1 of 3: Fix for pins not showing. ZOS did make changes that effectively broke what I was previously using.

I will have a better fix in the next version. No ETA.

1.33

- Pre PTS Version

1.32

- Added Polish translation tomkolp

1.31

- Added Spade icon by Zinival

1.30

- Opps, forgot to disable debug messages

1.22

- Additional locations

1.21

- Fix for compass pins not being drawn except after using the settings menu

1.20

- Update for french client.

1.19

- Optimizations to hiding and drawing pins.

- Added message to clear up the confusion when you are not scrying on the main map. For example when in a City like Solitude.

1.17

- Fix for when GetDimensions control is unavailable

1.16

- Update for Eyevea Map Name fix in LibMapPins

1.15

- Fix for 3D pin color being blank when you have a new SavedVariables file
- Tweaked the distance to be a bit closer to the Compass Pin for the polygon

1.14

- All pins automatically hide when there are no active dig sites
- Only Map Pins, Compass Pins, and 3D Pins show up that are within a certain distance of the polygon, or polygons if there is more than one.

1.13

- Adjustments to LAM color picker routine

1.12

- Added LAM support to have a settings panel.

It still records them. I have checked before. I will have to see if ZOS changed anything that might prevent things from being displayed but I don't think so.

I understand that the data included is limited, can we share our saved data(like you can with HarvestMap) and give everyone the ability to get more locations by default? I have spent too much time looking for some pins, so I want to save the frustration for others. Btw, this addon is amazing and I think with this data it could be superb

Zinival Forum posts: 4 File comments: 53 Uploads: 4	Very useful. Thanks! This is a really useful addon. It was annoying to go back to the same digsites and not remember where any of the nodes were, so this is exactly what I needed. I like that the markers only show when near an active digsite. Everything works automatically, so I don't have to bother with turning anything on/off depending on whether I'm doing antiquities or not. Very well done. Thank you! P.S. I made an alternate icon for myself, to fit in slightly better with the aesthetic of the HarvestPins addon that I use as well. If you would like to include it in ScrySpy then I would be delighted!

all libs are installed.

Well first off this is a mod that tracks where you dig. The locations only appear after you find them. It does not come with any pre loaded. So if you have not used this mod, or are a new player or a returning player, then you will not see any until you find the locations.

Also it is all automatic. Because I have a hard time controlling when to draw the 3D pins. I do not draw them unless you have an active digsite.

Lastly I do not support any languages except what the game supports. English, German, French, Russian. So if you have another language then this will not work.

So they only show up if you use an official language, if you already dug up a treasure in that spot, if you didn't start scrying in a city, and if you have an active dig site.

Otherwise I don't have a way to help troubleshoot. It works fine for me and I was using it for the event.

There may be situations where you cause the mod to not work. I don't know all of those situations.

One situation is you can not scry unless you are out in the open map. Meaning if you are in a city for example the game does not let me access what I need for the mod to work as intended. As a workaround for that I have a chat message appear that tells you the information the mod needs was unavailable and to use /ssrefresh when you are closer to the dig site. If this fails I will have to be able to reproduce it which means I would have to have extremely and absurdly detailed steps.

In the end most of the time I feel people simply think the game can tell this mod where to dig and do not realize it is a tracking mod and that you have to find the locations first.

This would mean you do not have locations for that polygon.

As mentioned on the description page this mod records locations you find. I am happy to look into specific locations but I would need a screen shot of exactly the polygon from the map where the map pins and the 3D pin does not show up. Then I can verify whether or not pins show up for that location. However, when I test it I will have to get an Excavation for that Polygon and record a pin and then I have to keep trying until I get the same polygon a second time to see if my first pin is displayed.

Also this mod requires that the game is in the 4 supported languages because it uses the name of the digsite to capture the location. So English, Russian, French, and German only. If you us a fan based translation in Polish or Spanish or some other non official language then I would need the exact string used so I can match it when you dig for the relic in order to record the location.

They only show when there is an active dig site and only close to the polygon. Make sure you have the most recent version.

Also make sure you pay very close attention to the chat message. If you scry in a location, say a city like Vulkhel Guard, the game itself doesn't have access to the map pins. The mod can't obtain what it needs. You will have to use the slash command as instructed once you are close to the digsite.

If you don't scry in a city then everything will happen automatically.
