  • Forge_User_32380091 created this issue Oct 16, 2020

    What version of Grid2 and game type (classic or retail) are you using ? r979

     

    What game client version (windows or mac) and language are you using ? English - Retail Latest

     

    What steps will reproduce the problem? Join any 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? N/A

      

    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). No errors

      

    Please provide any additional information below.

     

     Seems to be picking up any group size above 5 as 40? I have a theme set for 40 man and joining any group above party size keeps defaulting the theme to the 40 man and not the correct sizes.

    The party I joined was a 10 man (I was the 11th) and it defaulted straight to my 40 man theme. Left and joined party - picks up correct theme. Rejoin a 25 man, goes to 40 man theme. 

     

    Apologies if this is my error not understanding how themes work!

    Raid size really means instance size. The raid size is always 40 man in open world. For example if you enter in a mythic instance the raid size changes to 20 man (even if there are more than 20 players in the raid because only 20 players can enter inside the instance).

    Ah my apologies - so the theme size is only when the raid is capped at that size? If I enter a flex raid (e.g. Heroic) would it default to 40 man also?

    Time ago flex raid size was 30 man. Im not sure now, the addons simply asks this information to the game when the player enters in any instance.

    In the debug information (displayed in the screenshot you provided) the last number printed is the instance size provided by the game for the current instance.

    Unfortunatelly due to game restrictions the theme cannot be changed in combat, so its problematic to use the current number of players in raid.

    Understood - is there anyway for me to force frame size / width changes based on group size or would my best bet be macroing profiles? Many thanks for the help

  • michaelsp posted a comment Oct 18, 2020

    Remove all conditions for your themes (to avoid automatic theme switching) and use in a macro something like:

    /script Grid2:SetDefaultTheme(themeName or themeIndex)

    themeName = string  ("default", "my theme name", ...)

    themeIndex = number (0,1,2,3, ...)

    Examples:

    /script Grid2:SetDefaultTheme(0)

    /script Grid2:SetDefaultTheme("my theme name")

    Closed - not a bug (misunderstanding by me how themes / raid size works), resolved with help on how to macro theme profiles.
