YouArentInAPartyFix

Table of Contents

This project is abandoned and its default file will likely not work with the most recent version of World of Warcraft. Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.

Temporary fix for the "You aren't in a party." spam in battlegrounds, caused by old addons calling SendAddonMessage to "RAID" when in battlegrounds or arenas. This is a bug on Blizzard's part introduced in 3.2.0.

Type /yaiap and it will print out debug text every time an addon triggers the "You aren't in a party." message, best used before joining a battleground.

Sample code for fixing this problem:

function SendAddonMessageToRaid(pre, msg)
	if GetRealNumRaidMembers() == 0 or GetRealNumPartyMembers() == 0 then return end
	SendAddonMessage(pre, msg, "RAID")
end

Also fixes "You are not in a guild." messages.

For what its worth,
if c[chl] and ((GetRealNumRaidMembers() == 0 and GetRealNumPartyMembers() == 0) or IsInGuild() == nil) then
would:
block messages to guild while not in a party/raid
block messages to party/raid while not in a guild
allow messages to raid while only in a party

Since 3.3, occasionally when doing cross-realm random dungeons, I get an odd message something like "player 'x' is not in your group", 1-5 times...
I'll have to screenshot it next time I see it so I can give the exact wording.
Seems like some addon isn't quite handing the cross-realm instances :)

Excellent addon. Still works for 3.3. It helped me find that DoTimer was causing the spam I was getting in battlegrounds in 3.3.

When I type /yaiap, it doesn't tell me what addon is causing the error--all it returns is "Debug=True" or "Debug=False." Thoughts?

if you have debug = true, it will tell you more, if an addon tries to use sendaddonmessage in the wrong way.

Doesn't this stop the addon message entirely if you're in a raid and the message is for RAID?
Since t[loc] and t[chl] would be true and true?
Why not do
local t = {["pvp"] = true, ["arena"] = true}
local c = {["raid"] = true, ["party"] = true}

local function fix(pre, msg, ch, ...)
local _, loc = IsInInstance()
local chl = strlower(ch)
if t[loc] and c[chl] then
if DEBUG == true then
print("|c00ff0000YAIAP|r: prefix = |c0000ff00"..pre.."|r: debugstack = "..debugstack(3, 4, 0))
end
ch = "BATTLEGROUND"
end
old(pre, msg, ch, ...)
end

which says if we're in a pvp instance (BG or Arena), and the channel is RAID or PARTY, then set channel as BATTLEGROUND?

Is WG considered a PVP Instance?

r6 no longer uses the IsInInstance() method, so its no longer a problem :D

The problem is not only in LibHealComm-3.0. It would be nice if this addon could provide a stack trace (on request) of incidents, so addons that still do it could be identified and the authors notified.

Good idea, added /yaiap to enable debugstack print in r3.

I dont have HealComm and I still get all that crap. So if this stops it for me, more power to Whitetooth.

The fix is just to update you stupid HealComm. There was a fix a LONG time ago. You don't need another addon to counter a mistype in a script for another addon.
