Spell Active - now with more monsterbold! 07/09/2016 02:48 PM CDT
Hi everybody,

There is a new option under the SPELL verb: SPELL SORT. Turning this flag on will mark Cooldowns/Recovery Periods/Other misc debuff type things as Debuffs, will which sort them to the bottom of the output, and monsterbold them.

An example with it on:

>spell active

You currently have the following active spells:
Striking Asp Stance ................ 3:59:58
Elemental Defense I ................ 1:34:52
Elemental Defense II ............... 1:34:52
Elemental Defense III .............. 1:34:52
Elemental Targeting ................ 1:34:52
Elemental Barrier .................. 1:34:52
Fortitude Song ..................... 0:10:06
Song of Luck ....................... 0:10:06
Kai's Triumph Song ................. 0:10:06
Song of Valor ...................... 0:10:06
Song of Mirrors .................... 0:10:06
Striking Asp Recovery .............. 0:00:58

And with it off, for comparison:

>spell sort off
Your spell sorting setting is now OFF.
>spell active

You currently have the following active spells:
Striking Asp Stance ................ 3:59:50
Striking Asp Recovery .............. 0:00:50
Elemental Defense I ................ 1:34:44
Elemental Defense II ............... 1:34:44
Elemental Defense III .............. 1:34:44
Elemental Targeting ................ 1:34:44
Elemental Barrier .................. 1:34:44
Fortitude Song ..................... 0:09:58
Song of Luck ....................... 0:09:58
Kai's Triumph Song ................. 0:09:58
Song of Valor ...................... 0:09:58
Song of Mirrors .................... 0:09:58

This is really cool, but for stormfront users, it also sorts them to the bottom of the Active Spells window, which is exactly the opposite of what I'd want.

Is there any way to sort them to the bottom of SPELL ACTIVE and the top of the SF window? Or, better yet, sort by duration for keeping those refreshable spells near the top as well?

(I totally understand if sort by duration is way too server-intensive to do.)

I've updated the SPELL SORT stuff with a FIRST/LAST option - this will let you sort your debuffs/hindering spells so that they display first instead of last. Sorting them to be first should get them to the top of the SF window. Here's how it looks for the story window:

>spell active

You currently have the following active spells:
Striking Asp Stance ................ 3:59:37
Spirit Warding I ................... 0:59:41
Spirit Defense ..................... 0:59:41
Disease Resistance ................. 0:59:41
Poison Resistance .................. 0:59:41
Spirit Warding II .................. 0:59:41
Water Walking ...................... 0:59:41
Fasthr's Reward .................... 0:59:41
Lesser Shroud ...................... 0:59:41
Elemental Defense I ................ 1:19:41
Elemental Defense II ............... 1:19:41
Elemental Defense III .............. 1:19:41
Elemental Targeting ................ 1:19:41
Elemental Barrier .................. 1:19:41
Striking Asp Recovery .............. 0:00:37

>spell sort first
Hindering spells will be shown FIRST.
>spell active

You currently have the following active spells:
Striking Asp Recovery .............. 0:00:30
Striking Asp Stance ................ 3:59:30
Spirit Warding I ................... 0:59:34
Spirit Defense ..................... 0:59:34
Disease Resistance ................. 0:59:34
Poison Resistance .................. 0:59:34
Spirit Warding II .................. 0:59:34
Water Walking ...................... 0:59:34
Fasthr's Reward .................... 0:59:34
Lesser Shroud ...................... 0:59:34
Elemental Defense I ................ 1:19:34
Elemental Defense II ............... 1:19:34
Elemental Defense III .............. 1:19:34
Elemental Targeting ................ 1:19:34
Elemental Barrier .................. 1:19:34

You're welcome! Oh - and I forgot to mention, but if you're like me and you constantly type 'spell activ' instead of 'spell active' - that's okay now, it'll accept abbreviated options (as best as it can).

If it's not too much trouble, can "Next Bounty" be added to the debuff/cooldown list?

I think that that should be fine - are there any other candidates for debuff/cooldown status?

How about how much time until decay when dead and how much longer death's sting will last when back on yer feet?

Your 'Next Bounty' timer should be sortable now. I looked into decay and death's sting time but those aren't a straightforward thing, so while I'm not opposed to it, I'll have to look into it more.
