[Hydra9268]

For the past few days, I've reviewed this change and remain at a loss.

The Zygor devs coded their Addon to automatically call GetPOIMapInfo whenever the map opens or changes, so the data appears to initialize at call-time. I believe this negates the need to create the map pins like how other Addons do it. (example from ChronicCollector.lua)



Here's their code from Zygor's pointer.lua file with my edits based on Dan's reply:

_GetPOIMapInfo_ORIG_ZGV = GetPOIMapInfo
function GetPOIMapInfo( map, id, truthful )
 
    if truthful then 
        return _GetPOIMapInfo_ORIG_ZGV( map, id )
    end
    
    local normalizedX, normalizedY, poiPinType, icon, isShownInCurrentMap, linkedCollectibleIsLocked, isDiscovered, isNearby = _GetPOIMapInfo_ORIG_ZGV( map, id )
 
    if icon:find("icon_missing") then 
        icon = ZGV.DIR.."/Arrows/Stealth/cbni0-o1egp.dds" 
    end
 
    if poiPinType == not (isDiscovered or isNearby) then
        poiPinType = MAP_PIN_TYPE_INVALID
    else
        poiPinType = MAP_PIN_TYPE_POI_SEEN 
    end
 
    LMP:CreatePin( poiPinType, "pin-"..id, normalizedX, normalizedY )
 
    return normalizedX, normalizedY, poiPinType, icon, isShownInCurrentMap, linkedCollectibleIsLocked, isDiscovered, isNearby
end

I tried a series of method calls with most throwing null or undefined errors.

ZO_WorldMapPins:CreatePin(poiPinType, id, normalizedX, normalizedY)

CreateSinglePOIPin( map, id)

g_mapPinManager:CreatePin(poiPinType, "testing", normalizedX, normalizedY)

ZO_MapLocations:AddLocation( map )

The last thing I tried was the popular LibMapPins library. The Library does receive the required data.


via

LMP:CreatePin( poiPinType, "pin-"..id, normalizedX, normalizedY )

However, I do not see undiscovered pins on the map. That's where I get lost. Any ideas on what I'm missing?
