Title: Sorted Affects
Post by: Valeria on April 13, 2006, 12:35:33 am
Just a thought, would there be a way to show affects sorted according to time left? I think that would be useful, especially for those chars with many of them going on, to prepare for replacement.

Oh, and one other consideration (not to make this too complex).

If sorting by time remaining is too difficult, maybe a sort alphabetically would be more useful than the current.  And that way players could at least scan the names and see if anything is missing.

Hehe, try seeing your affects if you're an abjurer in clan, with three clans's powers on you... It takes the whole screen just to list the affects, let alone resistances... Valeria, your idea is great!

I remember someone who played transmuters made a script to tell you which affects were missing...

#hilight {light red} {0 hours}
#hilight {light red} {1 hours}

These are okay for jmc ;)
