Prestige Spell Tick counter
I am having a hard time seeing in my effects window, my prestige spell with the counter text due its size (I try to keep it somewhat small and out of the way), but in the case of the prestige spell, I would like it out and more in my face. Another issue is it keeps moving around in the list. I use Profit as my mod, but others may wish something similar to what I am asking for here. I am sorry if something like this has already been discussed and I missed it in reviewing the forum.

Hmm, be careful about saying the "effects window". UI modding can do very little about that window.
I'm pretty sure you mean the maintained window, however. |
I was only using the effects as a reference to where the current ICON is, not that I wanted it modified. I would prefer a new window just for this feature...
Thanks for the reply. |
why dont you use the spelltimer windows, for example
DrumsUI Spelltimer Window ? does essentially exactly what you want, well...besides the flashing thing |
The biggest problem is that the current increment count is in the dynamic data for the maintained window as /GameData.Maintained.Spell_#.StackCount. The # is a number 1-30 corresponding to each lit icon in the maintained window. And of course you don't know which icon your prestige ability's on at the moment, that depends on what other icons are lit at the moment and in what order (and it changes as procs trigger and abilities are used and expire). The prestige abilities don't have specific game data, and the scripting to check via the maintained window would be pretty hairy.

If your prestige icon is in the effects window only, no UI mod can be made. If the prestige icon is in the maintained window, then it is possible. That is why I wanted you to be clear about it. |

On another note - keep up the excellent work on these mods, we all appreciate your hard work in maintaining them when Sony changes things on you as well as in adding new features. CongoGrats to you all! :nana: |

The ones you trigger yourself are in Maintained, which spell trackers do ok at.
The ones from other people are in the spell effects window, which it IS possible to get information out of, but you can not get the stack count out of it. What you can do is duplicate the icon in to another location with another size, showing only that one. I have scripted some UI code capable of getting the info, but I have not implemented the optimizations needed to make it practical, or created a way to make the information available yet. Also, at a 45 effect limit, you're almost never going to see the one you want. |
