Opening a portal does not open the corresponding zone map
cbossaers opened this issue ยท 4 comments
Describe the bug
Opening a portal does not open the map of the zone, instead opening the map normally (current zone). i.e. if I'm in Valdrakken and use the Shadowlands wormhole, the map will open in Valdrakken, not showing the Shadowlands map. I have checked with friends and they have the same problem. This used to work pre TWW though.
How to reproduce
No particular steps. With no other addon enabled, all of TWW versions 110000.43/110000.44/1100000.45 present this error.
What did you expect?
For the map of the zone of the wormhole to open

You can enable this in the settings, it's disabled by default because it causes taint (e.g. eventually it'll break your action bars).
There's nothing I can do about this, Blizzard needs to fix their map.
If the option is enabled I get a lua error, so I'm afraid that doesnt' work either. Could you share some info as to what specifically is the cause of the issue?
Changing the map taints the quest log in the map, that quest log shares code with the super tracker, the super tracker is movable, thus eventually it'll taint everything movable with the edit mode, preventing the user from using the action bar.
It's secure code being modified by insecure code, and there is no way of securely changing the map, something I've asked Blizzard to add for years.
