UI crash

Many people I know are getting full UI crashes in Arathi Basin, where the UI completely disappears. We have ruled out the usual suspects addons and it appears to be directly related to Gear Menu. It is seemingly random when it occurs but it is always Arathi Basin.

Hi @brett1337

Definitely need to give me more information about this issue for me to work on that.

I play Arathi Basin myself and never saw an issue like. Was there a lua error? Does a simple reload of the ui fix the issue? Is it happen often or in a specific case? Where you able to reproduce this with all other addons disabled and only GearMenu active?

There is no lua error. a reload of the ui does fix it for a couple BGs. it happens itermitently after a certain amount of pvping like 2 BGs worth. I ahve not tried reproducing this with all other addons disabled. It probably is a weird addon interaction and that makes it really hard to figure out. This was more of a desperate attempt to see if you could repro the bug. Thanks for responding.

I am also experiencing the same phenomenon. Let me try to explain as much as possible while I am not able to deterministically reproduce this issue.

I make excessive use of your addon by letting it auto-swap multiple items back and forth with individual timers after usage. After one or two hours of playing this issue happens. It is connected to the switch of items after I leave combat.

As @brett1337 described, the complete UI disappears. Sometimes I can make the UI reappear when I am pressing my "open bag" button. This works as some kind of toggle, hence when I press the button again, the UI disappears again.

I can image some sort of overflow is happening within the memory, but then again no error or anything occurs and after /reloadui it works perfectly again. In PvP-Situations you enter and leave combat very quickly often times consecutively. Maybe when switching an item or multiple items in a very short amount of time after each combat the addon gets confused.

Closing this because I was never able to reproduce it. However there where a lot of changes in the new version 2.0. I fixed a lot of bad behavior regarding cooldowns and I could image that something like that could happen with extensive use.

Please let me know if this can be reproduced with the newest version.
