Quartz

13 - Fixed Duration Feature

Hi,

What does the provided patch do?

This is based on an idea I read in this thread:
http://elitistjerks.com/f32/t39672-improving_timer_bar_mods/
And also a mod called "Event Horizon".

I wanted to change the mod so that I can see clearly which buffs are going to expire when. The problem is that my various DoTs all have different durations, so a Curse of Agony with 15 seconds left to run will look similar to an immolate with 7 seconds to run.

The solution is to change all bars so they are 20 seconds long (regardless of their actual duration). This way I can clearly see what is going to happen in the next 20 seconds.

I'll attach the modified files, It only affects the Buff module, though I guess it would be nice to extend the idea to other modules.

Let me know what you think. It's also worth checking out Event Horizon mod, that mod has some extentions to this idea that might be interesting.
