[Fix] Recieving whispers while being /dnd


Auntie Mangos

Recommended Posts

Thanks to Klark20 we now have proof of official dnd response: http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/1463/wowscrnshot092411130440.jpg

Patch is complete and tested and please not forget about followup patch: http://getmangos.eu/community/topic/16890/merge-dnd-and-afk-auto-reply-message-variables/

PS: Keep in mind that with the arrival of Battle.net accounts they changed AFK to Away and DND to Busy (which was in 3.3.5) which results in a few other afk/dnd strings being incorrect on master but not on One or Zero. Nonetheless this does not have any impact on this patch

What bug does the patch fix? What features does the patch add?

Whispers should be displayed to the player even if he is /dnd

/dnd is usually used so that people get an auto answer like "stfx does not wish to be disturbed: no I wont help you". But not something where the person wont even get incomming messages (thats why we have /ignore someone).

This bug has been in the core like forever which simply is not like the retail behaviour. The only thing which might not be 100% retail after the patch is the changed mangos_string pattern.

For which repository revision was the patch created?

10541

Is there a thread in the bug report section or at lighthouse? If yes, please add a link to the thread.

no

Changes can be acceptable as official way work but

1) need preserve current GM option work way

2) possible add config setting for control current custom way work and default official way.

In both cases possible instead modify string need add new short version.

/ignore for permanent ignore some characters, current way work /dnd is temporary ignore anyone.

Update gist to [11799] and removed server config which was added in last version of the patch after having spoken to Schmoozerd.

We now only need to know the retail /dnd response: Could somebody please make a screenshot on offi showing how you whisper somebody who is /dnd. Thanks :)

Since this got backported to One aswell, is there anyone who played TBC on retail who can confirm this?

WoWWiki:

/dnd [message]

Toggles Do Not Disturb status. When DND is set, you cannot receive /whisper messages. A player attempting to send a /whisper will be notified that you have Do Not Disturb set. If you specify a message, they will also be sent that message.
