It would be nice if the ap earned part in the chat could be muted, or be able to put it into it's own window. Other then that, it is a very clean and helpful add-on.

@Ackwalan Settings will be added soon that will allow you to enable/disable a lot of things.

Make a setting where you designate an amount below which ap gains aren't displayed in the chat.

Absolutely this! Otherwise a great add-on!

@WildWilbur Its in there.

The UI is looking really nice.

Imo it should also display your current AP/hour in the preview window.

Thank you! Yeah, that is something I'd like to do. It is just a case of figuring out where to put it. I wanted to keep the meter as a mirrior of the telvar counter.

I feel the natural position would be under the display for the amount of AP. It wouldn't be an exact mirror to the Tel Var display but still remind of it.

Hope this thread gets to stay in this forum category so people can actually see it for a while before it gets (re)moved to the Addon + UI forum by some mod.

That's a thing? Didn't Miats addon have a 20 page thread in here somewhere?

Well they moved my thread about my Ultimate Organiser there ... and it's got like 10 views since then

It's the place where threads go to die.

I agree. I'm going to make it a toggable setting, just need to settle on the design. Will put it underneath/above the tick range.

@Ghostbane Nice job! Are you storing AP stats after a session ends? If not, it would be interesting to have a record of AP earned in a session / ap per hour / time played and be able to call up your historical info. Phase 2 would be to create a side application (Like the TamrielTradeCentre agent) that could submit that info to a central server, and let you see/compare your AP earnings to other people. Create competitive lists for AP earnings! You could probably do this with a free tier of AWS VM and an hour or six of coding ;-)

Are you looking at my documents or something? Because that is freakishly accurate.

No historical savings at the moment, starting small with client side features and getting usage feedback.

Although I did push a change inwhich if you /reloadui 'd in Cyro, you'd still maintain your ap session

@Ghostbane Considering the number of times we've discussed technology and the similarity/synergy of our real life work, it's not surprising we're thinking alike. The fact that we have both been among the greatest AP hoors in the game probably helps too ;-)

Sanct16 · September 2017

I think a history of how much AP you earned at what day on a certain char would be a nice feature.

Having an external site to compare data feels kinda overkill tho. It would be interesting to see how much AP/h other guilds get but in the end it would just lead to even more flaming. Another issue with something like that is that all files are accessible to everyone and I don't think there really is any reliable way to prevent users with some coding knowledge to submit some troll values.

Yep, troll injections are the main worry on that idea. You'd be eventually, essentially, banking on the honesty of the community. Kek.

Personal archive defiantly food for thought moving forward.

Now if only ZOS would give us an API function to know the D-tick timer...

I guess I can dream.

Airyus · September 2017

@Ghostbane stellar work sir two thumbs up. And thank you for the latest version. Looking forward to more of that ingenuity.

How awesome would that be? Something that detects the last death in the area, initiates and indicates the timer via user interface... i too share this dream...

Morgul667 · September 2017

This looks great ! Gonna try it thanks

Thank you!

And yes, this is indeed possible, but it would not be fully exact. You can listen for deaths around you, but this is an unknown radius to your relative position, and not refined to the current subZone you are in. If you stood on the flags after a fight, you could potentially get some accuracy, but it would not be guaranteed, and very boring.

I've still not given up on finding a solution though.

This will already do eso-database.com and here the leaderboards

@Ghostbane Great Job!!! My Ap Session Addon did the same, but without nice UI.

elbow · September 2017

@ghostbane great ap, much appreciate the work you've put into it! On an aside, we're wondering whether its possible to have a tbag counter app? The api registers going into/ out of stealth ie tbags on your body. If this could be stored , rather like a kill counter, would be very useful for alot of pvp 'ers, one could tell who has tbagged you the most, you could have a top 10 list of ppl you've tbagged ( esp from your own guild )

gepe87 · September 2017

It would be nice to have a average value of AP/ day or hour and with that we could calculate how long (days) we need to play to achieve the next rank.

Kartalin · September 2017

I like the default location of the ui component. I initially moved it to the corner until I realized srendarr puts my channeled focus and extended ritual buff trackers there.

@Taonnor Thank you very much man, yup I've used your great addon before.

@Airyus

@elbow I'll have to start a kickstarter for that wonderful idea.

@Ghostbane

Looks nice.

I would suggest to change the order so that Ap/hour is on 2nd position and the tick range on the last one, as you aren't always in a tickrange, so it would pop up at the bottom of the list rather than in the middle.

EdTerra · September 2017

really good job

NightbladeMechanics · September 2017

I would actually finish leveling a non-DC alt and go guildy hunting if I had that tbag addon.
