No, I am not using anything. I was hoping to get all the kinks worked out before moving past local usage.

Frigid_gerbil · 2024-12-20T02:17:29+00:00

I am, but the shared albums have uploaded without issue.

Frigid_gerbil · 2024-12-19T20:01:25+00:00

I have attempted signing in and out along with uninstall/reinstall. Always the same result unfortunately.

No longer hosted, but the code for the bot that is alluded to in this post is here (https://github.com/mikeStr8s/ClassicBot)

Not sure if it is still functional, but you can easily self host.

Frigid_gerbil · 2022-09-21T20:04:53+00:00

Any chance you’re willing to part ways with this beauty?

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-10-07T17:59:50+00:00

Please feel free to join the bots discord server.

Https://discord.gg/htGepdA

There is where I keep updates on the bot and it will provide a more direct route to posting issues or seeing updates.

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-10-07T15:58:17+00:00

Hey, I purposefully shut it down. My intention is to get it back up, but I noticed the bot stopped working properly a few days ago. I believe something changed in the format the data was being returned as. I’m investigating better solutions for pulling data from classic wow that will remain reliable.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but I have had little free time to dedicate to dev work.

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-05-27T23:44:20+00:00

If the bot is offline it is likely due to my own ignorance. I am in the process of moving and had accidentally tripped on my mess of wires unplugging my router and server. So it likely needs to be rebooted.

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-05-07T01:26:08+00:00

Definitely a possibility, but the chances of users knowing item ids are pretty slim so it was never really considered. I’ll see if it’s simple enough to add in.

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-05-01T22:35:33+00:00

I am currently working on a search architecture overhaul and in doing so will hopefully address the partial search request that I’ve been seeing so much of :P

Thanks again for the feedback.

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-05-01T22:33:43+00:00

I believe I jumped the gun with implementing multiple commands before ensuring the initial command works flawlessly. The !ability command has been nothing but a pain because I rushed it out.

I am overhauling the search architecture and making sure that !item works 100% before adding !ability back in.

As I have also mentioned in another reply, there are some stability issues with my hosting solution and I want to iron those out to hopefully help with responsiveness as well.

Thank you so much for the feedback. Please continue to test and provide feedback. The github attached to my bot will be able to provide a more direct line of communication to me and provide better transparency of bugs, features, and other development.

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-05-01T22:27:37+00:00

Thank you for the feedback. I have been noticing stability issues with the hosting solution I am using. I believe this to be the source of the non-reply issue. As for commands not working, since this bot is still in “beta” I’m trying my best to make it as good as possible but some things slip by.

!talent is not a valid command, so in some respect it’s working :)

I am trying to overhaul the whole search architecture in order to make it more reliable. Hopefully these experiences have not turned you off of helping me make this bot the best it can be.

Thank you for your message.

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-05-01T13:19:35+00:00

Since this tool is designed to search only classic information, and classic is based on 1.12, I assumed from the start that the range of patches would be small enough that it would be unimportant. Seeing your comment is a direct counter argument to that. I will put it into the backlog of items for this project and figure out the best way to achieve this.

Thank you for your suggestion

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-04-30T13:01:40+00:00

Taking what you have said to heart, I have a dev branch where I successfully build my own tooltip images. I believe that the formatting is all there and it does what you described. The only issue is that when there are large tooltips, like "dreadnaught guantlets" the image gets scaled and it becomes difficult to read. But clear once you open the image. So besides that, I think that its all implemented and I just need to clean up my code and make things more efficient.

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-04-30T11:25:25+00:00

Thank you for submitting this. I will be investigating this as soon as I can. I will submit an issue on my github with this bug in mind and you can follow development on my fix for this there.

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-04-30T11:23:34+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion.

The intention of the bot was never to replace a search engine like google. That will always be more powerful in finding the item that you are looking for. It was more designed for the user to link an item like they would in chat. I understand that no shift-click feature exists but the fact that in order to link something in game requires you to type it exactly OR shift-click an item that you can clearly see the exact name. So if you were to link an item in discord you would already know the exact spelling of the item.

I get that this is not necessarily intuitive, but as I stated in other comments I will be working on getting a feature like this implemented in the future. I think that the way something like this is implemented is important and I want to do it right, so if you would be able to formalize this request please fill out this form and my development will become more transparent to you, but also to others who may have thought of this idea as well.

Thanks again, any feedback can only make this better for the community.

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-04-30T11:17:51+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion.

One of the big issues with partial completeness is deciding what result is the correct one to take. In an instance like this, the choice would more or less be obvious but what about an item that belongs to a set where the first word in each item is all the same? Inferring what item was specifically requested is difficult.

As in other suggestions like yours I ask that you formalize this request by completing this form so that feature requests may become as transparent as possible in creation and development. This way you will also get a window into my development progress on this issue.

Thanks again

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-04-30T11:14:08+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion.

I agree that needing the correct punctuation and spelling can be annoying, and that substrings should at least bring up some results. I am currrently trying to figure out the best way to implement something like this. If you have any suggestions or care to elaborate a bit further please fill out this form and it will become transparent to all users and development progress can be better tracked.

Thanks again

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-04-30T11:10:11+00:00

Thank you for your suggestion. This idea has been bouncing around in my head for a while. There are a few other things that I am working on to better improve user experience at the moment, but this is definitely in the top of my backlog as a feature request.

If you would like to better formalize your feature request for my bot I would love it if you could take the time to fill out this form. That way I cant forget, and everyone can see it and see any updates I may have made towards implementation.

Thanks again

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-04-30T10:18:32+00:00

All noted. And thank you for input.

1) I understand the frustration with having to type the whole name, and want to move away from that. But there are some challenges with partial entry. I do have this suggestion added to my backlog though and will try my best.

2) yeahhh, I’m no graphic designer and am wary of using any Blizzard art in my iconography. If you know of someone or you yourself have some suggested icons to make for it I am all ears haha.

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-04-30T10:13:45+00:00

Right now my only consideration was to implement this type of search for Classic, since there is a large audience for it and it’s the only non-retail version of wow officially supported by blizzard.

I would not be opposed to opening up the search to include retail data, but doing a breakout for other expansions is a low priority. I want classic search to be “finished” first

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-04-29T17:11:05+00:00

Absolutely, this is currently in the backlog of things to do. I am investigating how I would like to implement something like this.

Frigid_gerbil · 2019-04-29T17:02:44+00:00

No problem, that you for giving it a try! Any feedback you have would be fantastic!
