[1.0.0] Clock

[lukep]

This adds a clock to the game in the Minimalist UI, that tracks turns, global speed, attack/move/spell/mind/summon speeds, and can calculate how much stuff you can do before timed effects tick down again (and other turn based stuff happens). Based on this thread.

Credits: a fairly large majority of the code in this came from Zizzo's Online Indicator addon. I hope that they don't clash, since they share so much code.

Nice!

It seems to work with the OldRPG tileset's OldWood GUI.

Excellent. Using it I stumbled upon a bug I think: http://forums.te4.org/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=36875

Using gauntlets increases attack energy required by 10%.

I really need to find a way of choosing the proper weapon for the attack time calculation. It's a bug here, not in the game.

Oh dear. Online Indicator was a monstrous hack, and people are reusing it? [sound F/X: source diving] Ah, I see, Clock is basically just Online Indicator with its tooltip replaced with yours. Yeah, those will probably step on each other's toes, then; even apart from the potential problems with multiple addons superloading the same method, it would be a matter of which addon ended up in control of the tooltip hotzone.

Well...it still beats my first few attempts, hijacking the activation for the orb of scrying, trying (and failing) to get a new item made and added at birth, and then hijacking the description of the "attack" talent. The dialogue is quite easy to move anywhere, it's just finding a good place to put it that's the issue.

EDIT: Actually, I may end up moving it, the mouseover of your character in the UI looks like a decent place.

Is the following routine from Archery.lua the sort of thing you need?

Code: Select all

--- Check if the actor has a bow or sling and corresponding ammo
function _M:hasArcheryWeapon(type)
	if self:attr("disarmed") then
		return nil, "disarmed"
	end

	if not self:getInven("MAINHAND") then return nil, "no shooter" end
	if not self:getInven("QUIVER") then return nil, "no ammo" end
	local weapon = self:getInven("MAINHAND")[1]
	local ammo = self:getInven("QUIVER")[1]
	if self.inven[self.INVEN_PSIONIC_FOCUS] then
		local pf_weapon = self:getInven("PSIONIC_FOCUS")[1]
		if pf_weapon and pf_weapon.archery then
			weapon = pf_weapon
		end
	end
	if not weapon or not weapon.archery then
		return nil, "no shooter"
	end
	if not ammo then
		return nil, "no ammo"
	else
		if not ammo.archery_ammo or weapon.archery ~= ammo.archery_ammo then
			return nil, "bad ammo"
		end
	end
	if type and weapon.archery ~= type then return nil, "bad type" end
	return weapon, ammo
end

Yes, but currently I would need to do self:hasArcheryWeapon(), self:hasDealWeapon()... self:hasXXXWeapon() if I want all of the bases covered. There isn't a generic _M:hasWeapon() that I could find.

Does this work with 1.1.5 or 1.2.0?

[Waladil]

Just so you know, Zirael, the Chronometer addon does still work fine as of 1.2.1. I don't know if that's the same addon with a different name or a completely different addon with the same goal, but I see you asked about that on it's own addon page (I was gonna link you to it but I guess you already found it ).

In fact, I sometimes consider "adopting" the Chronometer by re-releasing it as a 1.2.1 addon -- I don't think any of the original coders are still active, and I wouldn't claim to have any credit to the code of it. Just to get it up higher on the addons list and on Steam Workshop.

My clock is placed in the very lower right hand corner, underneath the un-movable UI elements (the ones to lock/unlock UI elements, show game log, etc).

Is there a way to move it?
