i was thinking about a menu somewhat like this the other day and i think it could be very useful if used for the right purpose. granted the OP had a rather easy function for the script it could be developed into something a bit more. kind of like the "casting bars" in WoW if anyone is familiar with that.
for example, in terms of pvp the menu can let you know what buffs/debuffs(strangle,evil omen, HLD,disarmed, bless, gift of renewal, etc) you have on you and the duration left on the spell. if the duration is unsure, say someone doesnt have 120 spirit speak so corpse skin doesnt last as long as someone with 120, the script can read the journal and find the "skin has returned to normal" msg and take the debuff off the menu
pve wise, i can see this being especially useful for whammy/sampires. have the script find your spirit speak, plug it into the duration formula and it can let you know when your curse wep is going to come off. same goes for eoo, evasion cooldown, heal pot cooldown.
any thoughts on this?
