Character auto select fails #320

Open Ethrel opened 1 year ago

Ethrel commented 1 year ago

🐞 bug report

Describe the bug The character auto select mode seems to no longer function. It seems that GGG has stopped adding the lastActive key on the characters returned for the API in use.

In my brief looking, I haven't found an exposed last active character anywhere in the actual JSON APIs outside of the official API (that requires the client secret and I understand why you're not using that). However, last active character information for display on the website seems to be contained in the html response body of the website (at the bottom of the source, they add in basic details). I'm not sure if that's of use.

I don't know if the logs contain active character selection...

To Reproduce open PoE Overlay and the game, wait an unlimited amount of time with no auto-selected active character update

Expected behavior The PoE overlay should set the active character. Or remove the auto-select option (or otherwise display that auto-select is currently broken)

This appears to be caused by something on GGGs end. We will keep an eye on this

Since 3.20 league, GGG removed a part of their API which allowed us to detect/auto-select your character. Currently no alternative has been found or developed yet, so for now it's unfortunately broken. I'd suggest manually selecting the correct character.
