PVP Flag Indicator not working in instance #1204

  • Doctordickweed created this issue Mar 10, 2023

    What version of Grid2  are you using (Version is displayed in General/About Tab) ? 2.2.9

     

    What game client version, classic or retail, windows or mac and language are you using ? Classic WotLK

     

    What steps will reproduce the problem? Entering any instance/raid

      
    Did you try having Grid2 as the only enabled addon and everything else disabled? Yes

      

    Was it working in a previous version? If yes, which was the last good one? No

      

    Do you have an error log of what happened? If you don't see any errors, make sure that error reporting is enabled (`/console scriptErrors 1`) or install [BugSack](https://mods.curse.com/addons/wow/BugSack).

      

    Please provide any additional information below. The PVP status is set to an icon indicator and works in the open world. If I'm in a group and someone is flagged, it shows on the Grid2 frames. As soon as I zone into a dungeon/raid the icon for pvp flag no longer shows, even though the player is still flagged. It doesn't matter whether they are inside the instance with me or outside.

    I should also mention there are no load conditions on the pvp status

    Pvp flag is disabled in that case because it is not relevant inside an instance,  And probably because in older patches pvp info was not available while inside an instance (i have not tested if the pvp info is available in current expansion).

    I can see pvp load conditions, maybe you want unit load condidtions, but these load conditions are only available for buffs/debuffs/mana/power statuses.

    Hmm, that's interesting. I think it's pretty relevant to warn players to unflag, as they won't get buffs when they are flagged and others are not.

    When I use Shadowed Unit Frames, it shows the pvp flag inside and outside of instances so I'm guessing it must be available.

    In dungeons/raids (for healers) the pvp flag data (at least in combat) is an unnecessary distraction/information. In retail i think they fixed long time ago the issue with pvp players and buffs in dungeons/raids, i don't know in wotlk.

    Im not sure about changing this behaviour because in 10 years nobody asked about this issue and people is used to the current behaviour.

    Update to version 2.2.10-beta, goto pvp status settings and uncheck the "Hide inside Instances" option.
