[CanvasWarband] Real time drawings on Map for Warband Leaders and Solo Players

[koziii]

Very interesting. At one point there was a dedicated chat command or channel that could be used to send notifications to other players and was intended for use for add-ons to communicate in the background (don't ask me what it was, I've long forgotten the arcane secrets of this game!). Might be worth poking Sulle on Discord to see if anything is still available to save you from needing to hijack the normal chat channels.

It would also mean that those who do not have the addon won't see the packets in WB chat either.

I just saw this feature in so many modern mmo so i decided why not here Im gonna fix it asap because when someone start to draw its automatically unfilter wb and party, Also yes everyone has to download the addon to see the drawings

So, it takes party and warband off the chat tabs. Aren't those 2 kind of the most important ones while in a party or warband?

It disables the real party/warband display filters to hide its drawing packets, then copies normal party/warband messages back into the same tabs through /7 and /8 mirror filters. So the chat remains visible, but through substitute filters. At least that what the addon code aims to do, I havent installed or tried it myself.

Thanks so much for letting me know I will fix it asap

ohh, that is possible, I saw that 7 and 8 were acitve, which I never turned on, and there was a message in 8. But dang, that will be annoying trying to remember to use /8 or /7 instead of /wb and /p, lol
