Astrolabe

[Zygor Support]

The right click error should be fixed now. Please make sure to update the guides.

[Zygor Dev 1]

The "attempt to call a nil value ... in function `securecall'" was unrelated to Astrolabe, but it is now gone. Others are being investigated. Thanks for reporting and sorry for the trouble!

[Zygor Support]

I'll make sure one of our dev team sees this to investigate further.

Still getting an error.

Astrolabe should not be getting added as an incremental update. The client uses the exact same file list when doing a full install and an update to determine what files should be in place.

@kupkakes... Try this for a test.

1. Exit the game
2. Go to your WoW/Cache folder and delete everything in there
3. Go to your WoW folder and rename the Interface and WTF folders to Interface.Old and WTF.Old
4. Run the Zygor desktop client, click the refresh button in the top right, and then click on the Install button
5. Go in game to test and then let me know if that fixed it

This will make it act like the only addon ever installed was Zygor so see if that has any effect on the error you are seeing. By renaming those folders you'll be able to easily put your other addons and settings back in place if there is no change to the error.

My libs folder doesnt have the Astrolabe folder, still receiving a LUA error. It happens when i click on a quest to skip a step.

Not sure how you got the Astrolabe folder in there. I'm looking at a fresh install of the guide files and the libs folder does not have the Astrolabe folder in there. Try manually deleting the ZygorGuidesViewer folder in the Addons folder then install a fresh copy of the guide files.

I've done as you suggested, and Astrolabe is gone again. I'll check for errors next time I log in.

As you'll see from above, I have done exactly this already today. The only change since then is the update from the previous version to 14859. Is it possible the updater is doing this for some reason, where it happens as part of an incremental update but Astrolabe isn't included in a full install?

[kupkakes11]

yes, twice. Ive also turned off all addons other than Zygor, still the same error

[Zygor Support]

Have you tried manually deleting the ZygorGuidesViewer folder (in the Addons folder) and installed a fresh copy of the guide files kupkakes?

[kupkakes11]

I've deleted my wtf folder, repaired the guide and reinstalled. Still receiving the following error:

Astrolabe seems to have made a reappearance in the latest update (6.0.14859), as have my errors while in instances. Was it intended for this to go back in?

[Aspin]

It's the only way to learn .

[Aspin]

Thanks for the info mate. It was mentioned earlier that Astrolabe was still used in a few places, but I guess it's been updated now. I wish I'd tried just dropping the addon folder first (it never occurred to me there would be differences) - enabling a hundred or so addons one at a time to test them is rather boring ;p.

[Zygor Support]

You mentioned before that some components were still using it. Could you clarify whether that's still the case in the latest version (6.0.14846 as of now)? Otherwise I'm slightly confused :P.

I thought that there were maybe one or two functions that still used it but apparently I was wrong. Sometimes it's good to be wrong.
