Recount

15 - 3.3f resetting meters in between wipes.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.  Die
2.  Release
3.  Zone back in to the instance.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect the overall damage charts to still be there, as well as the record of the last 5 fights.

What version of the product are you using?
3.3f

Do you have an error log of what happened?
N/A

Please provide any additional information below.
This behavior didn't start until 3.3f.

This is a continuation on a post I had on Curse.  However, comments were deleted.

    1115 is a clean fix and it's tagged as 3.3g. I'm closing the ticket for now considering it fixed.

    Version 1114 should have the problem fixed. I'll keep the ticket open until I get positive testing feedback.

    Thanks. I have identified the bug. Turns out that blizz's zone name updating is buggy/unclean and I have to use events that are prone to this unclean behavior to accommodate Onyxia's lair. Frankly I wish that blizz just had named the area around onyxia's lair instance differently than inside, and only because they didn't do I have to content with their other buggy events.

    I'll figure out a solution, but it's non-trivial, trying to listen to multiple events and delaying judgement to work around blizz's inconsistent behavior. For example when zoning into violet hold, IsInInstance() will return true and "party" even though the zone test still reads "Dalaran", hence messing up the same zone detection. Either one or the other ought to be wrong, Dalaran in sane circumstances reads false and "none" for instance flags.

    I have uploaded a picture of my settings. I have never messed with the settings; those are the default that were on with the f release. I never changed them before and it worked fine in previous releases.

    Let me know if there is something I should change or if you need any more information.

    I guess I'll also let you know that when I zone into an instance in progress, the information will stay on Recount for just a few seconds.... and then disappear and be deleted.

    Hope that helps.

    I need to see your auto-deletion setting to be able to confirm if this is a bug or intended. If you have set deletion on entering an instance and have confirmation off, what you describe is intended behavior. Please provide more detail to confirm that you either have these settings or have settings that give unexpected behavior.
