- With installed Skyshard display Addon make faster decisions possible whether a fast travel is worthwhile
Connect treasure and survey maps with found options to simplify your collection process

...

Notice:
We are still in the beginning with our Addon. If you find any kind of bugs or you have a good idea for new features or suggestions for better translation, please tell us

.
Especially for the French translation we need help! If you want to translate into other languages feel free to do so and put it in the comments.
To reduce problems with incompatibilities for the mass of our users in the future we have started a Beta-Channel. If you want the changes we made before its official released, feel free to check it out and let us know there if you have any problems. Here you can find the Beta-Channel.

This Addon is based on the well known "Luminary - Teleporter". At this point special Thanks to @awesomebilly for his pioneering work.

1.2.0:
- NEW: Clicking on zone names will open the specific map
- NEW: Clicking on Delves or Public Dungeons will open the parent map and a Map Ping will show you the exact position of the entrance (Group Rally Point - remove i.e. via "SHIFT+right mouse click"; with our first patch shortly after Murkmire release this feature will be greatly improved and will work for all Locations/Subzones)
- NEW: Auto Refresh when the Teleporter stays open
- Group Leader and Group Members who are in Group Dungeons will always be displayed on the top
- fixed bug where an error occurs when LibAddonMenu is not installed separately
- more keybind options
- more Blacklists and configuration options
- various major improvements

1.1.4:
- fixed bug that the counter how many wayshrines you have unlocked is lower than the real value
- fixed singular/plural text bug in the wayshrine-unlock feature chat output
- click on "Brass Fortress" now opens the map of "Clockwork City"
- saved gold counter counts only ports to overland wayshrines

1.1.3:
- fixed bug that treasure maps in Wrothgar were not displayed (EN/FR client)
- fixed bug that very rarely survey/treasure maps did not show up in the list
- fixed lua error that appears when the player did not belong to any guild

- fixed visual bug which appears together with "Votan's Minimap" (unwanted button frame)
- new keybind options
- information about how many wayshrines you have unlocked will be displayed
- minor improvement of the logging of saved gold
- several minor improvements

1.11:
- removed incompatibility issues with Votan's Minimap - Thanks to Votan

1.1:
- added French translation - Thanks to @Hypnos882382
- Keybinding - the UI can now be used standalone without the world map
- Option to show only overland maps / regions
- few improvements

Re: Request

Thanks for your request. In general it is not hard to implement. Nevertheless we have to see, when we have the time and resources to realize that (first we have to finish some other features which are already in the pipeline)

What does it do, exactly, and how do you get it to work. Nothing seemed to happen when I tried.

You have to be on a map, where some other players are online (guilds, friend-list or group)
If you click on the Wayshrine unlock feature our Addon initiates a fast travel to every player in your current zone without actually travel to that player.
If you take a look at your chat tab where every other addon should print their chat-outputs you should have something like that (in your game-language):

can you take a look and confirm that?

Hi, sorry for my delayed response. You're right, it worked exactly like you described. I guess my problem before was that I didn't know what to look out for. Thanks.

Alright, glad your Problem is solved. Hope you can enjoy this and our other features.

Hey Baertram,
thanks for your work. Today I did a first short quick test of the functions lib:GetZoneNamesByIds and lib:GetZoneName which are most interesting for me. Works like expected and I will test more (and properly start real implementation) in the next days. I will give you more feedback in time

And also thanks for your hint regarding function formatName. I will adjust this code part.

LibZone Version 0.2

Containing all zone names de, en, fr so far!
And functions to get the localized zone names, or the zone data (containing the zoneIndex, and the zone's parent [-> Only API version >= 100025])
I think you can use this function at best:

Lua Code:

--Get the localized zone data by help of a table containing the zoneIds
-->zoneIdsTable: Table containing a number index as key and the zoneId as value
-->e.g. zoneIdsTable = {1, 3, 36, 1200} or zoneIdsTable[1] = 1, zoneIdsTable[2] = 3, zoneIdsTable[3] = 36, zoneIdsTable[4] = 1200
--->Returns table containing the zone names
--->Key = number ZoneId
--->Value = String Localized zone name
--->Example: returnTable[3] = "Glenumbra"
function lib:GetZoneNamesByIds(zoneIdsTable, language)

========================================

What info do you got and compare if you search for the "zone name" in the edit field?
Do you have a lookup table for the current available zoneNames (from group, friendslistm guilds) containing the zoneId ?

I got a table with zoneData[language][zoneId] = {
["name"] = String "Zone name here",
["zoneIndex"] = number zoneIndex
["parentZone"] = number zoneId of parent zone -- ONly on PTS, API100025 Murkmire
}

So if you got a table with the zoneIds to search through, you can get the English texts for the zoneNames via the zoneIds and search through the English names then with the text the user entered into the zone search edit field.

I'd provide you a function like

Code:

local localizedZoneNames = LibDialog:GetZoneNamesByIds(zoneIdsTable, language)

where you pass the zoneIds you have in the "available guild mates, friends, group list" as a table in parameter "zoneIdsTable"

Lua Code:

local zoneIdsTable = {
  [1] = number zoneIdToGetTheNameFor,
  [2] = number zoneIdToGetTheNameFor,
  [3] = number zoneIdToGetTheNameFor,
}

for the desired language in parameter "language" (if it's empty it will return the client language).

Lua Code:

local language = "en"

And you'll get a table containing the localized zoneNames via the zoneId:

Lua Code:

localizedZoneNames = {
  [number zoneId] = String "Zone Name localized",
}

And I found some function in your addon which you may strip as it is already there, easier and faster

Code:

function formatName(unformatted)

in file TeleporterChecker.lua
First: This is a global function which might get overwritten by other addons! So better put this into your addon namespace like

Code:

function BeamMeUp.formatName

And you can replace it with this simply and fast code:

Lua Code:

function BeamMeUp.formatName(unformatted)
   if unformatted then return zo_strformat("<<C:1>>", unformatted) end
end

Maybe it would be possible to log everything in some saved variables automatically on reload check language and save all Zone names to the zone-id with a language-mark. (again the hint - i am no coder i just try to find ways)

And I already thought so @my other feature request. Makes definately no sense then to translate all the zones etc. and keep them locally in the addon.
If I find the time I'll think about farming the zone names for a library

Enter a search term into the zone search edit box so that an entry is found (e.g. Shadowfen). Then change the search term to something non exisitng like asdas.
Mark teh whole entry in the search edit field via CTRL+A or by mouse selection and remove it via DEL/backspace key.

Press enter or not. No zones are shown until you press "Refresh" button.

If I press the BACKSPACE key several times to clear the asdas manually char by char, all zones are properly shown again.
Seems something is not working if you clear the search edit fields manually by selecting the whole content.

Thanks for this hint. After reproducing I found the cause very fast and I already fixed it. We will test the fix more in detail and release it together with the version 1.2.0 which is already in Beta-Channel and comes with many new features

I'm not sure if this would be possible without having to build a translation table in the addon, which would seriously be too much ti maintain then

I see no way to get the zone names from the API in other languages than only the current client language. The only way to realize such a feature requires a translation table which comes with huge additional maintenance costs. Also the complexity of the whole search functionality rises.

Sorry, but at this moment I see no realization in the next few releases.
