Autoattack timer

[dragowulf]

I've been thinking. All OOR/Stun/etc things aside. We can make this mod as progress bars by using a similar method as mother's timer window, correct?

If so:

Make it so that when an aa/rangedaa occurs, it takes the delay of the weapon and sets the auto attack progress bar timer.
Ex:
1. Auto-Attack occurs and sets the timer to true
2. The timer uses the 5.3 delay and counts down
3. The auto-attack is turned off and the timer sets to false


We could make it so whenever a CA/spell is used and the casting window is visible, the timer is delayed. Whenever the casting window is no longer visible, it starts the timer again.
Ex:
1. stopautoattacktimer if {mainhud.casting.visible=true}
-Casting window's onshow=parent.stopautoattacktimer=true
2. startautoattacktimer if {mainhud.casting.visible=false}
-Casting window's onhide=parent.startautoattacktimer=true


I'm not sure how this part could work out but..whenever the Out of Range Message occurs, it delays the timer untill the message changes???? EDIT: I'm completely unsure about this one
Ex:
1. OnScreenMessage onshow=if {MessageText.text='out of range'} then stopautoattacktimer=true
2. OnScreenMessage onhide=if {MessageText.text=''} then startautoattacktimer=true


Any thoughts? I'm also unsure of how it would be if you enabled auto attack on an unattackable npc because the timer would start.
