A helpful window

Thanks to Drumstix42 for pointing this out to me.

/show_window MainHUD.Character

A lot of it is broken, but there are a few VERY helpful pieces of information in this window that aren't available elsewhere.

Examples: (Under "Spell Effects")
hpregenppt, mpregenppt: Shows the exact values of the HP and Power regen values provided by your current food/drink!

Speed: Speed boost provided by your current speed spell.

Stealth, stealthspeed, seestealth: Rather handing for scouts comparing various versions of Sneak, including adept upgrades.

I'll be cutting it down to what's useful and making a stat strip out of it later, but in the meantime I thought I'd share.

That window displays a bunch of inappropriate information for me. Says I have 8plat - I wish! Also says my character is a male Barbarian, which is not even close :P

I think it's a discontinued element that isn't supported by the game API anymore..

Probably, but there's still some accurate and useful info in there.

A lot of stuff updates in the Spell Effects scroll down box. There is no way to reearange stuff in that part, but it's fun to look out.

A few cool things I found that I hope get implemented are DPS, Speed, and some others.

I saw that Stealth, Stealthspeed, and SeeStealth got updated depending on what spell you were using. (I saw invis in there too, but I'm a scout, not a caster)

As for the plat showing 8, that was just the default localtext in the UIBuilder, I think it shows 8 because in the xml the name was spelled 'plat' instead of 'platinum'. So maybe an error, or just doesn't work :P But anyhow, all the stuff is hardcoded into the window, so I encourage anyone to open this window, and add some stuff to the dynamic data wish list. There is some good stuff !

"says my character is a male Barbarian"
You typed it in wrong.
If you do mainhud.character, no info will be right. mainhud.Character (the C needs to be capitalized) then it'll work.

I like the tradeskill percent as a permanent text object that's there. This window rocks. Wish I could have my Persona window auto-open it.

Oops, caps sensitivity, who'da thunk? Thanks

Some potentially useful information here - it would be nice to see some usage of this stuff on new (prettier) windows..
