Frequent Disconnect from server on zone changes?

[zebai]

I think something with the PartyQuest & Sky interoperability is causing frequent disconnects when changing zones, I believe it has something to do with the bug that shows all completed quests on zone changes. Last night I had like 6-7 completed quests, and every single time i changed zones i was getting disconected. I often experience such disconnects with 2-3 completed quests, but it appeared more random with that number, but now with 6 it happens every time.

The thing is, when i disabled SkyParty, and Sky with the Sky dropdown list under the portrait, IT COMPLETELY STOPPED. So I believe this problem lie specificaly in the questsharing feature, and most likely caused by the spamming of complete quests before your completely loaded.


FYI, I sometimes get the same boots when OTHER Sky users with completed quests zone and spam me their completed quests.

Yes PartyQuests has been known to spam out the sky channels and cause disconnects. Dropping the SkyParty channel when not quest sharing with your party is probably a quick workaround. Just remember to re-join it when you need to.

Just a quick fix to disable the completion broadcast, comment out the line that says:

PartyQuests_SendQuestCompleteUpdateToParty(questIn fo.title, questInfo.level);

in wow/Interface/AddOns/PartyQuests/PartyQuests.lua (line 2022 in the current alpha).

This disables only the "Soandso has completed Some Quest" broadcast. It's not a perfect fix, but at least you won't be spamming your friends out of the game every time you zone, and you'll retain all the other features of PartyQuest.
