Auto logging toggle doesn't work in raids.

Describe the bug
DBM auto logging feature stopped working for actual Season 4 awakened raids (heroic, mythic). But it continues to work correctly for M+ dungeons.

Do you have an error log of what happened?
No LUA errors.

To Reproduce

  1. Enter an actual raid instance.
  2. There is no DBM info message about starting logging.
  3. Start logging manually (/combatlog).
  4. Leave the raid instance.
  5. There is no message about stopping logging either.
  6. Stop your logging manually (/combatlog).

Did you try having DeadlyBossMods as the only enabled addon and everything else (especially something like ElvUI) disabled?
No. :)
But autologging is disabled in other addons and I've always relied on DBM only.

Which version of DeadlyBossMods are you using?
10.2.41

Was it working in a previous version? If yes, which was the last good one?
Yes. It stopped working only a ~week ago. (13-May)

I tested it just now, and the auto-logging function is working fine for me in S4 awakened raids. Could you try again? Preferably test the feature with only DBM enabled. RaiderIO also has an autologging function, which I have disabled.

Maybe happens only in Vault of the Incarnates.

I'm testing in Normal. After each teleportation I wait for at least 1 minute.
Tried with both

  • other addons are enabled but no other addon manages auto logging toggle
  • everything, except DBM modules, is disabled.
    Result: other addons presence has no impact.

Entering a raid only once:

  • tried to enter a fresh instance (a character appears in dragon's room).
  • tried to enter a progressed instance (a character appears in intersection room).
    Result: logging is not auto started.

Teleporting inside the raid and then exiting.

  1. Entered a progressed instance → logging has not started.
  2. Used a portal back to the dragon's room which keeps me inside the instance → logging has started after this teleport.
  3. Exited the instance → logging has stopped.
    Result: incorrect work because normally a player doesn't need teleportation inside instance.

Leaving instance:

  • a progressed raid where logging has failed to start
  • a fresh instance where logging has failed to start
    Result: on exit logging starts and then ends within some seconds.

I have also checked that RaiderIO auto logging works correctly with Vault of the Incarnates enabling logging on enter and disabling on exit while RaiderIO was set as the only logging toggler.

I have just reproduced your bug in an non-Awakened normal VOTI raid. In the week that you had reported the bug, I was unable to reproduce your issue because I had auto-transcriptor enabled but not auto-combat logging.

Here are my test results:
If ONLY Transcriptor autologging enabled - works fine
If TS + combat log autologging enabled - bug
If ONLY combat log auto enabled - bug

Tested in Vault of the Incarnates - bug
Tested in Amirdrassil (Awakened) - works fine with either auto-combat log alone or in combination with auto-TS.

I could not find the issue because I only thought it was VoTI. once I realized it also affected aberrus I refined where I debugged and found the issue was the hacky new load code that had to be added to handle zone changes without loading screens (such as entering a delve in TWW or entering caverns from surface (or returning to surface from caverns).

Because DBM performed it's checks based on loading screens, this was incompatible with the new tech that changes zones without them. The problem with new code is it only runs once, not twice. loading screens ran at 1 second and 5 seconds. with the 1 second setting the IDs, and then 5 second checking IDs for auto logging.
but SPECIAL zones only run at 5. they set the Ids AND run checks at same time, except for auto logging, that runs BEFORE Ids are set casue auto logging assumed those were already set by previous check (which doesn't run for screen less loads). basically auto logging for VoTI and aberus never ran against the correct ID.

the technical reason for auto logging running before Ids changed, was because it needed to run even if ID didn't change, for mythic+ (where difficulty can change without ID change). i drycoded a new work around for that instead that hopefully resolves that while pushing the auto logger to later in the code to always run after IDs change..

I already tested and auto logging for VoTI and aberus is now fixed, but I don't know if auto logging for M+ still works anymore. that might now be broken since the new work around for that is untested.

The above explanations will also explain why aberus and valt logging doesn't start for 5 seconds, but amirdrassil will start after 1 second. that's just a caveat that can't be avoided.

Tested again today, RaiderIO is able to successfully enable auto combat logging upon entering the instance, but DBM cannot, so I'm able reproduce your bug.

I've tested M+ — auto logging toggles correctly.
And fixed for raids now. ;)
