Version: 1.22.3

Dependencies

LibAddonMenu

Description
On one hand, the "Locations" tab of the world-map does what it needs to do and all locations fit on screen without scrollbar.
On the other hand, it looks very bare and squeezed. Pseudo locations like "Tamriel" and "Aurbis" are mixed together with locations of all alliances, just in alphabetic order.

This add-on improves the "Locations" tab of the world-map window.

It adds a Most-Recent-Used list (MRU) to the top. Your currently last visited locations are the top five. (Similar to "Faster Travel", because it is an obvious useful feature )
The locations are grouped by alliance and your character's alliance will be the first, then Cadwell Silver, Gold.
~~Since 1.2.0 you can enable showing zone level.~~ <= Obsolete since "One Tamriel"
Since 1.3.0 you can enable showing "All Alliances" zones on top (below recent list).
Since 1.8.0 gamepad mode support.
Since 2.20.0 A re-written version of "Survey the World" from manavortex, with her permission.

Alliances are indicated by the icons: Scrolls, moon and sun. The scrolls indicate your character's main alliance, the crescent moon indicates Cadwell's Silver alliance, and the sun indicates Cadwell's Gold alliance. (Which is why Coldharbour is a scroll - since you only do that for the main alliance.)
The book with a down arrow indicates DLC/Chapters. The tower is for PvP zones.
The numbers indicate story order/DLC release order.

Was fixing my VampSorc's 2 armory builds, switching back and forth, cleared CP and attributes and had Vampirism cleansed for one of them. Collected my writs and decided to do them in Summerset instead of High Isle. Used the map to portal to the exterior of my Summerset apartment and immediately received the error. I could not get into curser mode to copy it, so had to take a screen shot. Sorry, those google links had all of my personal info, so I deleted them. Let me know where I can send them privately, or another way to get them to you without using frigging Google and I'll get right on it. Thanks in advance. I had to close the game via Steam again as my game was frozen. Trying IMGUR Screen shot of error https://imgur.com/a/FRhlmnb Last edited by Noob2022 : 12/19/22 at 03:35 PM.

Noob2022 Forum posts: 0 File comments: 5 Uploads: 0	Getting an error on a brand new character after WW bite I created a new, Orc Dragonknight, skipped tutorial and ported to my apartment in High Isle. Did a bunch of stuff, logged out and back in for various reasons (making gear, etc.). Asked for a Werewolf bite in GChat. Grouped. Ported to my groupmate in The Rift Via BMU Ran to the WW shrine, killing things along the way. Got the bite, entered the WW instance. Completed the WW quest, got the skill line. Ported from inside the WW quest instance to Outside my High Isle apartment and immediately received a Voltan's Improved Locations error when the load screen finished. I dismissed it and received it again upon exiting the Inn. This time, when I dismissed it, my screen was locked in the default Map UI. I couldn't get back to my character, use Escape to get to my addons selection or exit the game, etc. I couldn't get the error to come back either. I had to go to Steam and manually shut the game down. After checking Minion once more to see if I had an update (I didn't), and then coming here to see if there were any errors like this being reported (there weren't), I started the game back up. I logged into my main and all was well. I then logged into my new Orc WW and all was fine. Went in and out of several buildings, no issues. Decided to use the BMU wayshrine discovery tour option and the error is appearing again. This time, I managed to grab a copy of it before my toon ported again. He's still out there, porting away, with the error returning on every load screen finish. user:/AddOns/VotansImprovedLocations/VotansImprovedLocations100017.lua:389: attempt to index a nil value stack traceback: user:/AddOns/VotansImprovedLocations/VotansImprovedLocations100017.lua:389: in function 'addon:SetupLocationName' user:/AddOns/VotansImprovedLocations/VotansSurveyTheWorld/Main.lua:70: in function 'addon:SetupLocationName' user:/AddOns/VotansImprovedLocations/VotansImprovedLocations100017.lua:465: in function 'addon:SetupRecentLocation' user:/AddOns/VotansImprovedLocations/VotansImprovedLocations100017.lua:815: in function 'setupCallback' /EsoUI/Libraries/ZO_Templates/ScrollTemplates.lua:2451: in function 'ZO_ScrollList_UpdateScroll' /EsoUI/Libraries/ZO_Templates/ScrollTemplates.lua:2207: in function 'ZO_ScrollList_Commit' user:/AddOns/VotansImprovedLocations/VotansImprovedLocations100017.lua:900: in function 'WORLD_MAP_LOCATIONS:UpdateSelectedMap' /EsoUI/Ingame/Map/WorldMapLocations_Shared.lua:10: in function 'callback' /EsoUI/Libraries/Utility/ZO_CallbackObject.lua:132: in function 'ZO_CallbackObjectMixin:FireCallbacks' /EsoUI/Ingame/Map/WorldMap.lua:3813: in function '(anonymous)' I managed to dismiss this error and stop him from porting again through BMU. I then picked a random apartment (Glenumbra) to port to. Did not get the error again. Left the Inn, no issues. I decided to try the BMU auto-unlocking with my main, no issues, but they also have almost all unlocked. Logged onto a lowbie with a Vamp spec. Changed to vamp spec from an armory station and proceeded to use the BMU autounlock feature, no errors. Logged back onto my new Orc WW. No errors. Entered my inn room, used the armory station to save the WW build and then loaded the alt with no WW. Did the regular BMU autounlock, and then the "Experimental" BMU autounlock, no errors. Did 5 jumps total. Ported to the inside of Ancient Anchor Birth (High Isle Apartment) and switched specs back to WW. Exited apartment and started the normal BMU Unlock. No errors. Started the "Experimental" BMU unlock, no errors. Appears to be fixed. I'm sure you were in the mood for just such a random error and totally up for a challenge. <<insert sarcasm here>> Take care, and thanks for all of the great addons!

PICTURE of what I'm talking about. It's Vvardenfell.

There is a key-bind button at bottom right.
If not, you may have a conflict with an addon changing to UI.

Oh. After re-reading my answer: Sorry. I mean, I have a look.

I hope this helps.

That is real strange, but good to know.
In ths case maybe someone with this error could post or PM the SavedVar.

I did the same, and it seems to work for me too. I keep an eye on it, but I guess it will work. Thx to you both

unfortunately the error's back, I just changed the sorting, nothing else:

It happens only if I change area, porting to places within the actual area (e.g. Auridon) will not bring this error up.
