    Did you try having Grid2 as the only enabled addon and everything else disabled?

      not really

     

    Was it working in a previous version? If yes, which was the last good one?

      just turned on errors to see, but it was happening all over

     

    Do you have an error log of what happened? If you don't see any errors, make sure that error reporting is enabled (`/console scriptErrors 1`) or install [BugSack](https://mods.curse.com/addons/wow/BugSack).

      

    Please provide any additional information below.

    I cannot replicate this issue can you send me your profile in text format ? (General/Pfofiles/Import&Export/ Export Profile Option)

     

    As workaround, goto Statuses>Targeting&Distances>Direction status

    Uncheck the "Out of Range" Option..

     

    You can disable the direction status too (uncheck all indicators in the indicators tab), anyway it is not working in instances, only in open world (and im not even sure of it is working fine in open world for midnight).

    yes disabling out of range makes the error not happen. however that is a useful thing to know about people you are trying to heal :(.

    Version 3.0.11 should fix these issues.

    Umm not the direction status issue yet, maybe in next update.
