waypoints

[kanadian]

Can I get another 30 waypoints per step the current 400 is not confusing enough, the current setup makes you a blizzard junior, always adding shit only a few ppl want that uses allot of mem making the game run like shit with no way out for the ppl the just want the basic... this makes you FAIL at addon development.

Which guide, what faction, quest, achievement, etc? Nobody can help you without knowing these things.

all over the place where it says to go here then here then here and here and the waypoint always points to the end. I develop addons, and just because you can make something dose not mean it is a good idea, each step should have ONE waypoint.... THE GOAL. I don't need to know that I need to go to this path then turn at this rock..... F**K OFF

First, there is no need to be rude. At all. Ever. Second, I develop AddOns too, which doesn't mean anything to the Zygor team. Third, just because you do something your way does not mean it is the best or even the only way to get something done. And ...

Fourth, if you do not like the step by step locations, then why on earth are you using, even buying, a guide that is written to expressly do exactly that?!?

Seriously, don't complain that Zygor is doing something, when that something is the whole point of the design. You knew what you were buying when you purchased the Zygor guides.

Further, I would like to point out that Zygor is indeed a good idea for those users who can figure out that a guiding AddOn would, you know, GUIDE YOU STEP BY STEP.

I know you will respond, and probably say something to disagree, and that's fine to have your opinion, but right now you are digging your own grave. Just saying.

OK, so one rude user complained about not finding anything because he did not get navigated step by step up a stair and now another one is complaining about too many waypoints. Welcome to the internet where good manners are wasted time.

But anyway, I'm a nice person, so here's my suggestion: turn off the travel system. That way the waypoint arrow only points to the target, no matter where it is, no matter how far.

had I known that there was 30 waypoints per step I would not have purchased it. the last version of the addon did not do stupid crap like it.

Turning off the travel system does not do much at all, I have it off and it still forces me to go to every waypoint "ie: go to rock one then rock two", it is a lib that the addon uses as a whole, meaning you can turn off the visual but the memory hog still runs for stuff that works everywhere else but in Draenor, at this point you can tell it is all about the income that the addon brings in.

I'm not sure, are you complaining about the travel system trying to route you to a location or are you talking about some of the steps that have 3 or 4 different 'routing' lines to help you navigate around?

[Cartman]

With the travel system off the guide only directs you to quest goals and maybe a few transition steps manually put into the guide (mostly in older content as only in Draenor the travel system got lots of intermediate coordinates for routing).

For example with the travel system off you'll get rid of those "go to this road" and "go here to leave the garrison" coordinates.

[kanadian]

it is off and it is not acting in the way you are describing, this use to be a really good addon but now it is more confusing and frustrating then it is worth

all of it, when I turn travel system all it should default back to the old style

So you're saying you only want the arrow to point in a straight line to the final destination without telling you how to get there? This would mean if there was a mountain between you and the destination you would have to find your own way around the mountain.

I am saying I have played the game for 10 years, I only have the addon because when it was a must have addon I got so use it being there it is hard to play without the box there. I want it to act like it has in the past where I am at point A the objective is at B and here is no other waypoint for a single step unlike now where there is 5 dots for one step, go over this bridge, turn at this path and enter this cave. there is nothing I hate more then wasting time trying to get to the exact same point the waypoint is at just for it to move to the next sub-step of a step

On those steps where there are multiple waypoints shown you can click on the last waypoint line and that will tell the arrow to just direct you to there.

So for example with this step: http://puu.sh/dB9iA/2d0095f818.png
You can just click the 'Go up the hill' line and it will just point to there instead of directing you to each spot.

I should not have to, if someone needs that type of guide they simply should not be playing, at this stage in the game they have killed any need for this addon. as I have stated in the past. I do not NEED this addon I support the addon. On the other hand it dose have some use but in no way shape or form should the addon confuse and or take someone out of the way witch this addon has become..
