from ikiboun:

the addon auto complete "go to location" step when you have been there before. For example when I loaded horde "002_35_37_Jame_Arathi_Highlands" guide the first step, fly to Hammerfall was auto completed althought in the middle of Arathi area. It's happening all the time, so i'm not sure it's really a bug or just me...

I can't figure out what's happening with this one, if people could keep an eye out for it and let me know if you get any more details.

I had this happen for me last night too - however I think I can see why. The travel step is linked to a quest id and I had previously completed that quest so the travel step was not displayed. However, there were other quests that were a reason to take me to that location.

I guess this is an issue with the guide (i.e. perhaps it should not have any quests associated with the travel if there are multiple unrelated quests), or it might also be useful to have multiple quests associated with a travel step - or alternatively never skip a travel step?

Ah, that makes sense. Yes, this is actually something I've been thinking of for a while. I would like to make the travel, set hearth, get flight path, and other similar steps be able to rely on multiple steps in the future.

It is important that they are associated with some quest, because if we've already cleaned out that hub we don't want the guide telling us to go there. This is of course only important if you are skipping around int he guide.

For now, all we can do is make sure guide file coders understand how the quest IDs they attach to the travel steps might effect actual use of the guide.
