406 - Reagents not adding up properly in queue

When I queue items to craft, the reagent list is often incomplete.

Two examples:

- On my Alchemist, I'll queue up 10 of a given flask. Let's say Draconic Mind (though it happens with any). I have no mats in my bags, bank, guild bank, or alts. It'll properly tell me I need 80 Volatile Life and 80 Twilight Jasmine, but it'll only say 64 (or some random number) of Azshara's Veil. Sometimes I can use my brain (duh) and know I need 80. But sometimes I do have a few stray herbs in my bag or bank. So I'll buy what the reagent list tells me to buy, gather up what I have, the reagent list is EMPTY, and yet I don't have enough herbs to finish crafting. It didn't add up.

- This morning on my Engineer, I queued up a Lil' Smoky to craft. I bought and gathered what the reagent list told me. I was looking at a queue window with the pet listed, an empty reagent list, but a greyed-out craft button saying "Nothing to craft". When I expanded the pet's line in the queue, two items were missing. So why weren't they (or their mats, if they're sub-crafted items) in the reagent list?!! I'm making trips back and forth to the AH, with manual look-ups of what I need... I might as well not be using the addon if that's what I'm having to do. The whole point is the complete reagent list.

    @lilsparky: Go I always use GW's AH scanner. It still happens, apparently randomly.

    did you use gw to scan the ah? it will intercept some ah data requests from other mods, but i don't think it will capture "getall" scans...

    @lilsparky: Go I've seen this occur even when the auction house has the materials required. If I buy one item through the GW interface, the material in question suddenly pops up in the reagent window.

    i think what you're seeing is that gw can't find any more of a particular reagent in any known location. it should tell you that some items are missing in the reagent window, but that feature hasn't been implemented yet.

    so for example, you queue up a series of items that requires 80 "widgets". you have 20, your alts have another 13, in your guidbank(s) there are 12, and on the auction house 15 are listed. so that's 20 + 13 + 12 + 15 widgets that gw has found. that's only 50. it doesn't show you any more than that because that's all it knows about. what it needs to do is identify that the queue won't complete and that you still need 30 more widgets.
