mob health display

[coozmak]

alright i went back a few pages... and i couldnt see anything on it.. but here's an idea...

i used to play WoW... and there's a lot of UI mods out there for WoW... one of which i thought was pretty nifty was this mob history mod... it was almost like a damage parser/loot recorder... when you were attacking the mob... based on the damage dealt (either using server info or just info from combat text) it was reading the mob's life out... using the percentages of damage dealt to it... like for instance...

i hit MOB for 20 damage... you see the mob's life go down 1 bubble, which equals 20%... use some simple math and you figure the mob has 100hp...

now what the mod does is it records the mob's info into a little database it uses, so next time when you fight the same mob that is the same level, it will display it's health in a total number rather than bar/percentage...

in addition it also took the average coin picked up off the mob and designated the average as the mob's worth... mostly used for farming purposes... but yeah... you get the idea...
