Rui's Ultimate Counter Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 0.2.2

by: Ruimuuv [More]

Addon Overview

Rui's Ultimate Counter is a simple UI add-on that adds the amount of Ultimate charge you have above your ultimate ability on the action bar.

The readout should display whenever your action bar does, and it automatically detects if you have the "Always Show Action Bars" option enabled. (I.E. Your reticle is over an attackable unit, or you are currently in combat)

The number on the left is the amount of Ultimate charge you currently have, the one on the right is the minimum amount of charge required to activate your ultimate ability. When you have enough charge to activate your ultimate ability, the text will turn green.

Chat Commands

/ruc percent -- Toggles between using the exact readout (cur/cost) or a percentage readout (150%)
/ruc pos -- Toggles between positioning the display above the ultimate ability button or between the last normal ability and the ultimate ability.

New in Version 0.2

Now REQ feature time: I am asking this because I enjoy ESO simple ui style, which numbers on screen takes away. Could you please also create a visual Bar that fills up? Here is what I have in mind for my preferred prefect Ult bar addon. Create a bar that is under the health bar of the character, in the same style as the stam bar for the horse is under the character stam bar. This bar would fill and decrease much like the health bar does (both expanding/shrinking, not left to right or visversa) I plan on playing as a werewolf, which the werewolf transformation timer is located under the characters Magicka bar. So have an ult bar under the characters health bar would feel like a prefect place. Quick visual: [Magicka_Bar].......[Health_Bar].......[Stam_Bar] \[Werewolf_Bar]....\[Ultim_Bar]/.....[Horse_Bar]/ ...............[Q].....[1][2][3][4][5].......[R] What the Werewolf Timer bar looks like in game: http://oyster.ignimgs.com/wordpress/stg.ign.com/2014/03/tails-610x343.jpg Last edited by JadeKnightblazer : 04/11/14 at 02:36 PM.

This is definitely a reasonable request for a UI mod, but it seems counterproductive to what my vision for this add-on is. Besides, the ultimate ability icon has a built-in progress bar.

My main purpose in creating this add-on is for the Nightblade ultimate ability Death Stroke (and morphs), which does increased damage depending on how much ultimate charge you earn over the base cost (50 charge). Bars are wonderful for demonstrating a range between two points (I.E. 0 to 50), but if you need to display values outside of that range they aren't generally the best choice, thus I went with the numerical display.

Now that being said, if I can figure out what the ultimate charge value for the highest amount of damage is (and if there are even any more abilities that work like Death Stroke for other classes/weapons), then I could potentially make a bar for that.

Thanks for your input!

I took the liberty of trying to fix it and it seems to work as it should now.

Open lua file and modify OnRetTargetChanged function like this:

Before:

After:

Lua Code:

local function OnRetTargetChanged( eventCode )
    local unitExists = DoesUnitExist("reticleover")
    local unitIsAttackable = IsUnitAttackable("reticleover")
    
    local unitNeutral = false
    if GetUnitReaction("reticleover") == UNIT_REACTION_NEUTRAL then
        unitNeutral = true
    end
    
    if unitExists and unitIsAttackable and not unitNeutral and not isFrameShowing then
        animFadeInTimeline:Stop()
        animFadeInTimeline:PlayForward()
        
        isFrameShowing = true
    elseif not unitIsAttackable and isFrameShowing and not playerInCombat then
        zo_callLater(HideFrame, 3000)
    end
end

Thanks, but I have a fix for this and some other bugs in the pipeline and I will be submitting an update today barring any other last-minute bugs popping up. Also tweaked the fading in/out animations to be much more like the action bar, so my OCD should be happier.

The percent should be pretty easy to do, even if I allow it on the button itself. Putting the current display style on the button might be a bit trickier, since the biggest value that could possibly be shown is "1000/1000" (I think). As far as I know, none of the ultimate abilities come close to this and the longest piece of text that would be used is 3 digits on each side of the slash. (123/123) Still, it may be a bit of a squeeze and I'd potentially have to use a smaller font. Though since I plan to make an options window, I could provide options for text size and font as well.

For clarification, does the next not show up at all or does it still display when you point the reticle at a hostile (red glow) mob? Either way, thank you for the report; the next version should detect the "Always Shown" preference and display at all times if it is enabled.

Highrisedrifter Forum posts: 0 File comments: 13 Uploads: 0	Love this mod. Best Ultimate tracker so far. It would be useful if the information was available all the time. I run with my action bars showing all the time so it would be especially useful if the info from this addon showed whenever the action bar showed, rather than only when in combat. I love the fact that it shows my 'over level' of Ulimate (Sorc using Overload which is a toggled ability with an activation cost of 125 and uses points from the built up Ult pool when the ability is used, so it can be switched off prior to falling below the 125 cost to reactivate). it would also be very useful if it could be move to be slightly lower to the top of the icon too please as I feel it is a bit too high. Overall, great mod though. Thank you. Last edited by Highrisedrifter : 05/04/14 at 06:01 AM.

Remember that at the moment it is only visible near or in the fight.

thx for reply. yes i definitely am in combat and everything. im usually good with details, but still nothing.

One thing....when i installed it, i created a new folder in the "addons folder for the game. Then unzipped the folder i download from here, then copy and paste the files themselves to the folder i created named "addon a"

could this be the problem? am i doing it wrong?

EDIT/UPDATE ...Yes that was it! Fixed. Thx for reply. It was the folder name. I didnt know that your not supposed to unzip the downloaded folder lol. Itll still show up in addons list in game, but wont work right.
