Known Issues

• UI Elements sometimes break after a few games- especially if a lobby crashes.
• Debug Mode, when set to true, is near impossible to read in realtime. Entirely on me, will fix in 1.3.0 (I shifted the goalpost oncetwice, sue me)
• Having to open the in-game menu at least twice before text chat will appear for the first time
• Unemployed

Changelog

V1.2.1

• Patched logs going absolutely ballistic in the lobby screen. Oops!

V1.2.0

• Added Speed tracker (displayed in m/s) for all of you bhoppers out there. This is by default off and can be toggled in the config by changing ShowSpeed to equal true.
• Added the ability to see text chat in-game. Admittedly a bit funky to see it initially, but after the first time you open your in-game menu (via ESC) you will be able to open your in-game menu again & see/use text chat. There may be unforeseen consequences going from one game to another, so we shall see!

V1.1.1

• Changed some README.md wording & explained where to find the config. Happy Spellcasting!

V1.1.0

• Added the new Rock page spell for cooldown tracking! Future versions will incorporate better logic & futureproofing while enabling players to color each spell (Vanilla or Custom) to their liking.
• Added 4 additional anchor points in the config for the cooldown text. Original location would now be TopLeft, and new locations are now BottomLeft, BottomRight, TopRight, Hotbar. (I personally like Hotbar, thanks for the suggestion R4ven!)

V1.0.2

• Did a dumb and uploaded a mod with poor version control. Oops!

V1.0.1

• Changed ModSync flag from 'all' to 'client'.

V1.0.0

• Initial release
• Text-based elements added to HP/Stamina Bar depicting HP/Stamina
• Text-based elements added below HP/Stamina Bar depicting Spell Cooldowns

To-do

• [x] Upload the mod
• [x] Make the config useful (Kind of did it?)
• [ ] Improve readability of text
• [ ] Expand existing HUD elements
• [ ] Eventually replace Cooldown text with icons
• [ ] Incorporate MageConfigurationAPI so it is easier for players to make config changes
