I have noticed that the loot counts are sometimes off a little. The problem is the event that indicates that a loot has occurred and the message that the server send the client to put something in your bag are not synchronized. It is known how to fix this, but the fix is NOT ready yet. Just keep an eye on it.
While the current guides are pretty good, we will be working constantly to improve and update these guides. Remember that if you notice a bug, you can help us by reporting it!

2.2.1 PreviewSo far, theloot count fix has corrected all the problems with the Shattered Sun Guide.I did discover and fix a few problems with the Dailies resetting logic.Now onto writing a draft Love is in the Air guide.
Acheivement Performance EnhancementTake a look at WoWPro_Dalies.lua in the GIT trunk and see the new thing:bucket:RegisterBucketEvent({“CHAT_MSG_LOOT”, “BAG_UPDATE”}, 0.333, WoWPro.Dailies.AutoCompleteLoot)That causes CHAT_MSG_LOOT and BAG_UPDATE messages to be collected until 1/3 of a second has passed with no updates and then it calls WoWPro.Dailies.AutoCompleteLoot.If you change the event processing for CRITERIA_UPDATE (which gets issued ALOT) to not call WoWPro:UpdateGuide() on every message but only after a delay, it may fix things. UpdateGuide is kinda expensive. Maybe:bucket:RegisterBucketEvent(“CRITERIA_UPDATE”, 0.333, function (events) WoWPro:UpdateGuide(); end)would do the trick
Performance ProblemsI will look into it this weekend and see if I can see anything in code causing it.
2.2.1 PreviewGithub has my 2.2.1 preview.It has three changes of note:A merged Shattered Sun guideThe Ace Bucket library is now includedI use Buckets to aggregate the loot related events and delay 0.333 seconds before looking at the bags for loots.This should get the loot counts perfect on the Dalies module. If it works, I make the same change everywhereBTW, there may be a performance problem with the Acheivements module and the processing of CRITERIA_UPDATE messages.
Could I see?Could I see?
Delay for 2.2.1I’ve punted for a few days on 2.2.1, as I have discovered a few bugs in the dalies module while trying the “Shattered Sun Offensive” guide that Twists started and that I merged with my own.Some of the steps are not auto-completing properly and some of the quest accepts seem to not get registered.Something odd is going on.
Thanks for the catch, fixedThanks for the catch, fixed it.
If I click on the DL-Link onIf I click on the DL-Link on this page it downloads v2.2.0B 😛 Not sure if it’s just a typo in the archives name or if you forgot to update the link 😉

Fixed in 2.2.0CThe correct neutral Sholazar Basin is now activeBug in the dalies module when you turned in a quest that had a followon step that referenced it with a PRE tag WorldEvents lets you go into an instance without turning itself off if the step is in an instance!The addons now remember your current guide even when you click it off and on againLittle teaks to the Alliance Lunar Festival Guide
Fixed in 2.2.0BZone name correction that I *think* was lightheaded specific for “Darnassis” (Hendo72 )Missing Horde Lunar Festival Guide ( AkaSmiley and Laotseu)Edits for the Horde Lunar Festival Guide (Laotseu)
You forgot that too!It seems that you forgot to put <Script file=”LunarFestival.lua”/> for horde side too :/

Oh, MxyzptlkI have no idea how I messed that up. I’ll put up a revamp tomorrow when I get tired of shoveling.
Nonlinear Heating and stirringHmm, you would want the first step to terminate for EITHER 33615 or 33614 and then have separate steps depending on which.No, that would be a mess. It would be easier to have a U tag that took a list and gave you whichever was in your inventory.a |U|33615;33614| form. Let me see if I can code that up.
Multiple item IDs for single questWas doing “Apply Heat and Stir” and relized that there were multiple Item IDs that were used in the quest.The initial was 34023, then it went to 33615, then if it failed it would go to 33614. So not sure about how to go about that.
Um, I think you forgot to putUm, I think you forgot to put the fix for the auto-accept/turn-in for the Leveling module. I saw it in the others, just not the leveling one.
Yes, since those quests areYes, since those quests are not available once you hit Friendly. “Head Full of Ivory” and “Stealing from Thieves” quests.
If you meant ONLY neutral …If you meant ONLY neutral then that is OK. If you meant neutral to exalted, then you need neutral-exalted…..
Ok, I added in the REP tagsOk, I added in the REP tags for the Nagrand quests for The Consortium on the certain quests. I hope I did it right.|REP|The Consortium;933;Neutral|That is what I put.
