Troubleshooting / FAQ

Addon list doesn't show Warband.pro Companion

• Ensure _retail_/Interface/AddOns/WarbandPro/ folder contains WarbandPro.toc (9 files). Retail Midnight 12.1 Interface 120100.
• If you renamed folder, SavedVariables WarbandProDB breaks orphan — keep folder WarbandPro, Toc Title wins display.

/warband does nothing

• Type /reload (full restart needed if .toc changed)
• /warband status debug

Export panel won't open in combat

Expected. Addon blocks during InCombatLockdown() to avoid taint — shows red bar "cannot export in combat" queueing reopen after PLAYER_REGEN_ENABLED. Fail closed.

String empty / len 0?

• Log alt to capture — addon snapshots silently only on events throttle .5s. Open bags/bank/vault first time.

CurseForge page 404?

Anub? Actually project 1660174 moderation pending ~ few hours after first upload. GitHub Release v1.0.1 already there Success!.

Why no minimap button?

Bloat. Blizzard's stated place is AddonCompartment now (top-right minimap). Saves compat. Click there or /warband or keybind optional.

Warband bank never refreshed?

Currency one row per account, tabs shared — need to open account bank frame on any alt to snap. Seen across alts.

Why bank 0 free confused me?

Unknown vs empty: before fix, empty said "0 free" reads full. Now prints "not opened" if never opened. Open bank once.

Toast "doesn't look like Warband string wb1!"

• You copied Camp DNA share wb0! — use Share tab import
• Else re-copy: /warband → ensure auto-highlighted → Ctrl-C (not drag)

Too large bundle?

20 chars or >1MB decoded → try /warband copy current single-char for streaming/testing.

No auto-upload?

Trust. No network calls — verify .toc check code. Copy-only, you decide paste to your own account.

Freshness always red?

• App vs addon time mismatch — addon uses unix seconds WoW time() / GetServerTime(), web converts. If your PC clock skewed off UTC, stamps drift. Check system clock.

Warbank 1h ago (by Vocnar) but exporting from Voctara — did it save warbank?

Yes intentional. Shared account-wide — seeing 1h ago by Vocnar still valid when exporting from Voctara who didn't open bank.

Why 4-7KB not 26KB?

4-7KB is slim = no per-item lists? Actually v1 full single 8.6KB, 6 26KB. 4-7KB figure circulating is pre-full-items estimate with no per-item — don't trust old README old docs. Measured table in CONTRACT.md.

Addon not scanning continuously / heavy?

No OnUpdate scanner, only BAG_UPDATE throttled .5s, BANKFRAME_OPENED etc. SavedVariables <200KB 6 chars. Memory <2MB.
