Welcome to the esdkp wiki! This is just some usage notes. We should probably organize this better at some point.

Naming a Raid

When naming a raid, never, ever, ever, use numbers at the end (or anywhere, just to be on the safe side).

  • FellFoliage1
  • FellFoliage2
  • etc.

Will end up in corrupted raid rosters. Everything starting with "FellFoliage" will be combined into one raid in the database. In order to fix it you will likely have to manually edit the database which is best avoided. This is because of the stupid logic for double tier (see above - don't ask why).

  • FellFoliageA
  • FellFoliageB
  • FellFoliageOne
  • FellFoliageTwo

Are all fine.

Also make sure your raid names are totally separate and distinct.

  • FellFoliageA
  • FellFoliageAwesomeSauceWin

Is NOT Okay. Again because of stupid logic used for double tier. The program will match anything that starts with "FellFoliageA" including "AwesomeSauceWin".

ROS Tradeskill Diamonds

When recording diamonds don't use:

  • Flawless Conflagrant Diamond X1
  • Flawless Conflagrant Diamond X2

The raid will save but if you try to open/edit raid attendees or loot they won't display in the GUI. If you have to make changes and re-save the raid I "think" the diamonds are still associated with the raid but have not done much testing. I "think" the DKP calculations are also OK but would rather not find out later we have a problem. *I'm pretty sure this has to do with the "ends with a number" logic used for double tier but it's not worth the effort to find out.

The following seem to work fine:

  • 1 Flawless Conflagrant Diamond
  • 2 Flawless Conflagrant Diamond
  • 5 Flawless Conflagrant Diamond
  • 6 Flawless Conflagrant Diamond

The autofill in the GUI doesn't seem to like entries that start with a number so you'll have to click these with the mouse.

Open to other naming conventions that are easier to use. As mentioned in an earlier episode you can't record Flawless Conflagrant Diamond, Flawless Conflagrant Diamond because the program will only record 1 item with the same name.
