Duty found notification brings FFXIV to focus and repeats indefinitely #55

Closed DAOWAce closed 4 years ago

DAOWAce commented 4 years ago

I thought everyone was experiencing this, but I haven't seen any issue created about it in the last few weeks, so...

Describe the bug here: When in-game features are enabled, XIV launcher forces FFXIV to the front when a duty is found. This even includes forcing it OUT of focus then back INTO focus, which is utterly bizarre and quite disruptive.

Additionally, if remained out of focus, it will continue to blink into and out of focus indefinitely, until you click back inside the game window.

Steps to reproduce the bug:

1) Enable in-game features.
2) Queue for duty.
3) Wait until queue pops (do a solo duty for testing)
3a) Optionally, click outside of the game window.
4) Watch as the game is brought out of focus then back into focus.
4a) If clicked outside of window, watch as it cycles focus indefinitely.

Expected behavior The launcher not to interrupt the user and have the game behave as normal (as it did prior to the 5.2 update fix).

Other information (please complete the following information): Operating System: Win10 x64 v1703 XIVLauncher version: Latest at time of writing Launching as admin?: User account is admin (UAC disabled) Using Steam?: No Addons/Plugins enabled: Just the standard Discord rich presence and "in-game features" that come with the program.

Additional information

Roulettes don't show the found duty anymore. It just says "Duty pop: Duty Roulette".

Did they remove the ability to extract the duty information from the game (obfuscate) or was this a deliberate change to avoid people bailing on duty they didn't want to do?

This is a known bug but an issue was never made - Thanks!

As for the second question, they did completely remove the information. There's no way to fix it, sorry!

This will be fixed for the next patch.

I assume this fix worked - haven't heard any more about it.

DAOWAce commented 4 years ago

Ah, I actually haven't been playing the game really, and my sub is about to run out as well. Not feeling the game anymore.

However, I did do a duty and I believe instead of the game popping in and out of focus, it took and remained in focus, which was bizarre.

Re-tested just now and it does appear to work fine, so I guess there was another update to the addon that completely fixed it.

So, yes, it appears to be fixed, yay.
