Fire suppression timer overlay component

[ashley]

That issue might be fixed with the move to the press and hold solution as well. It may have something to do with the way it currently listens for the key press and activates.

I haven't even had time to boot the game up in like the past 11 days, but I'll see about getting a quick alternative for visibility out later today. The keybind change that will hopefully fix the remaining issues will probably need to wait until I finish up classes/exams or at least get past the crunch period when final projects are due but before exams.

Apologies!

Ok, a version with white text and a black background is up. It'll still have the same issues as the original for now (minus visibility problems, hopefully), and let me know if I accidentally broke anything else.

Will this work for the vanguard shield out of the box?

Yeah, you'll just need to adjust the timer duration to whatever it is.

Exactly what I was thinking and was about to post. Let's give Vanguard "Pro"s an IwinShield countdown timer, so they don't have to cower behind cover for 45 seconds, like the little bitches they are. Technically it would definitely work, but would create even more balance problems. On the other hand, it's not like DGC would ban people for using a RTS Add-on that shows the exact cooldown timer of the IwinShield.

This was going to be a game feature in a QOL update like a year and a half ago but like many promises by SOE, it never got past the conceptual stage. I don't think they would've talked about implementing it if they thought it was a balance problem like you're saying and not a quality of life issue.

Thanks! Visibility is indeed fixed, and i didn't realize anything you might have broken by accident.

It's buggy and sometimes broken at the moment. Just got home a few days ago after finishing out the semester, so I'll begin work on it again soon.

Changing keybinds might not work in the UI, so you should manually change them in the .Recursion\RecursionTracker\Settings\ folder under "ComponentSettings.xml".
