Survey Zone List Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.0.1

by: bulton-fr [More]

Track all survey in the character bag and display it by zone name.

I create this addon because when I do surveys, I do it zone by zone and it annoy me each time to have to check in my bag if I have really finished a zone (superposition of pins) and what is the next zone.

You can show/hide the UI by a keybinds, or with commands /surveyzonelist or /szl

I have added treasure map into the list by request, but for the moment, the "next zone" info displayed on the second line ignores treasure map count.

Dependency :

LibAddonMenu-2.0

Features :

Add an UI which display all zone name where you have a survey or treasure map, the unique number and the total number of survey in each zone.
You can configure how the sort is done
You can change the text displayed
You can configure a keybind to show/hide the UI
Show the number of node recolted on the spot
Show the number of survey on the current spot, or if you can move of spot or zone
Show an icon on the node if it's a survey node
Display an alert, and/or play a sound when the spot is finished

Known issue :

#2 When the "display with world map" in enabled and the map opened, the list is displayed behind the map.

Next feature :

#4 Configure the UI (background, color, font, etc)
#6 Add an option to only see for the current zone
#7 Fade info cell when done on the spot
#8 Add a EP/AD/DC/DLC sort option
#9 Auto hide if no more survey or treasure map
#10 Add detail about survey on the current zone (number for clothing, etc)
#12 Also read for survey in bank
#13 Check champion points about resources/harvest
#14 Use LibTreasure to improve zone detection and no more have duplicate zone because a typo in the survey's name

Maybe at some point add more detailed view at the zone you're currently in. For me I'm mostly annoyed that I keep checking the map when I ran out of surveys while doing the same spot again and again, so a counter would be awesome for that. And some graphical options to finish it up and you got a winner here. Thank you for you work

For the moment I try to add a way to detect if when a survey item is removed, it's because we are on the spot and use it, or because we have moved it to another bag. I think to have found a way this morning, I need to check that. Anyway, when I will succeed in knowing this info, I think I could add a lot of info about a current spot like a counter for the harvest (to know if we have 6 nodes), a counter about a spot like you said (when we have many surveys for a unique spot), etc.

It's on my plan too, I wanted to publish a first version before and see later to add some things that I have seen on other addons like a way to change the background used, the transparent level, etc.
Or maybe you are thinking of something else ?

To be honest with you, I did not know these addons (however I had made a quick search before to dev mine), but I'm lucky, it seems not to be exactly the same things

So I just test the Votan's addon to see the diff, and with a fast usage (so maybe I missed something), I see some differences.
The first difference is mine have dedicated interface which stays on the screen. We not need to open the map to know info about surveys on zones (but I can understand that some players are not annoyed by that).
Also, it seems that the Votan's addon only display what type of survey we have on the zone; My addon display the number of survey spots (unique and total) on zones.
However the fact to display the type of survey is an interesting thing, maybe I will add this later.

Thanks you for asking, I would not have liked to have made an exact copy of another addon without knowing (you scared me

)

I like it a lot that I don't have to open the map all the time, instead I can see the list all the time. Obviously this is probably mostly useful for people like me whom stack up the surveys and do hundreds of them at one go. Does the keybind work ok for you ? It doesn't seem to save it for me. I haven't encountered that problem with other addons I use. Only thing I can think could have an affect to this is Votan's Keybinder. Haven't tested to turn it off yet. Cheers

I also use Votan's Keybinder and I never noticed a problem with addons keybinds, maybe i never saw him.
For my addons, I not manage the keybind save by myself, it's the game that does that for me; I only define a new keybind name and the action to do when it's used, that's all.

However if I set the selection from Votan's addon to save the keybind account wide it does save normally. Could there be somekind of conflict with the base game ? Have you tried to turn off the accountwide option for your survey addon keybind ? Does it still remember your keybinding when you reloadui ? Or when you disable Votan's Keybinder altogether?

Hi,
Sorry for the delay, I had concentrated on finishing my other addon because I have kept too many items for tests and all my storage become full (really too much to be able to wait for Monday).

I do some tests this morning about keybinding :

unbind the key, disable account shared keybind, and reload ui
bind a new key, and reload ui -> the key is saved
disable votan's keybinder, and reload ui
unbind and bind a new key, reload ui -> the key is saved (tested many times)

So I not reproduce

But, during all reload (it's long for me), I have done some research about how to create a keybind (to be really sure to use the good way), and I have found a recent comment from Baertram which maybe can be an explanation about the issue you have.

Look the 4th comment (from the top)

Thanks,

For the moment I'm working to have a counter about the current survey. But, after tests by guild mates and myself, it's not a 100% success (I suppose it's about the loot speed between a node and another). I will do a release soon with the counter (and a "beta" mention on it).

I am one of those who do not like noise, but I understand, so I can add it and add a setting to enable it and choose the ding to use.
I think I will be connecting it to the counter to have it when the site is done (the survey map is consumed when we loot the first node), but like I said, the counter has some fail sometimes, so it will be possible that sometimes the sound will not be played.

Re: Re: fabulous

awesomeness!

really strange a survey disappearing from inventory would get missed. If you need another beta tester... I did most round already. Only have alchemy left. But likely have surveys for most locations....

cheers

Re: Re: fabulous

Howdie,

Needed the bag space so I did my 99 Alchemy surveys yesterday.

As far as I saw. Your addon caught the survey disappearing from my inventory every single time when I harvested the first resource.

So don't seem to have witnessed the bug. Or it is not in your current live version.

Or we were not talking about the same kind of counter.

Maybe you were talking about a counter of the current survey harvesting process?
Starts at 6. I harvest one. 5. and so on?

While I meant a counter (well or dingding) about how many more surveys I have for the current location.

Say Wrothgar yesterday. I had 8 Surveys for the 3 Alchemy locations. Split 3-3-2.

So your addon would display 3-8. I finish one survey (all 6 resources). Run away and back to make them respawn. Harvest first resource and your addon would go 3-7. Same again. 3-6. And same again and it would go 2-5.

This is the dingding moment for me. When number of locations goes down by one.
So I get prominent feedback (auditory or visual) that I dont have to do the run away and back to make resources respawn anymore. But can go to next location.

I could just watch your window like a hawk obviously. But truth is I kinda space out into a meditative? state sometimes when I have more than 3 or 4 surveys for one location. And I run away and back even if last survey for that location is used up because I didn't notice. and wonder why the heck it didnt respawn this time....

So the dingding or prominent visual feedback would be to make me snap out of that space-out state ;-)

hope makes sense.

Anyway. Not really a biggie.

And your addon already made my survey runs so much easier.

so thanks a lot and good luck tracking down your bug.
Am officially survey free now. So wont be able to help.

cheers

Re: Re: Re: fabulous

Hi,

The bug I have is on my development version (so not published) because I add the detection if we have done all the 6 nodes of a spot, and it's not perfect for the moment.

I understand what you want, maybe I had to explain wrong what I was thinking (English is not my native and I already have trouble explaining in my native language, so in another language...

)
However, thank to explain more, now I'm really sure to have understood (and it's what I had understood).

And I think add this will help me too. Last time, I came back 3 times on a spot where I had ended surveys before understand there was nothing left here

On the other hand, I can't tell you when I will do it. Between my work, my health and guild events, it's sometimes hard to find times. I hope soon though.
Not to forget (it's already happening on another addon), I have created the github issue.

In case you want to see it : https://github.com/bulton-fr/TESO_Su...eList/issues/3

Thanks,

It's strange yes. Do you always have the exact name of the survey ? (It's not a problem if it's not in English because I find zone name from the survey name, so the issue can be from there)
