Feature Request - Stack Counting

[Sythalin]

There are a lot of abilities that stack, would be nice if we could use SPESPE to display the counts.

For example, using SMN's Further Ruin (since this is the most common I waste casts on):

General Tab

Keyword to show mex gains the effect of Further Ruin Use Regex: True (boolean) Stack On Cast?: True (boolean) Number of Stacks to Add: 1 (int) Max Stacks: 4 (int)

Keyword to extend mex loses the effect of Further Ruin Remove stack?: True (boolean) Number of Stacks to Remove: 1 (int)

Visual Tab (Misc)

Show Stack Count: True (boolean)

First, remove the 0x26 ignore in the Log Filter in Options. Then create a trigger like this This will display a spell timer that behaves like your request. Not satisfied with this?

General tab Spell name ${_count} Keyword to show (^26:<id8>:<mex>:.∗:0:0:0:.∗(?<_count>[0-9]{2})04BC|^00:<id4>:<mex>loses the effect of Further Ruin) Recast time 9998.00sec Keyword to extend ^00:<id4>:<mex>loses the effect of Further Ruin -9999.00

Visual tab Progress bar ☑Circle Style W0 H0

This actually helped out quite a bit. Although your example took a little editing, (for example, _count quantifier needed to be 1 instead of 2), I got it working. I also trimmed it down a bit. The final result (for anyone curious or looking to do this for SMN):

Spell Name ${_ruinStacks} Keyword to show <mex>:.*:0:0:0:.*(?<_ruinStacks>[0-9]{1})04BC Recast time 9998.00 Keyword to extend <mex> loses the effect of Further Ruin -9999.00

The example was helpful, but the real thing that you helped with is letting me know WHERE to find stack counts in the log (which of course were hidden). I spent 2 hour digging through the default log trying to find that info to make this. Maybe now I can also get my BLM Enochian watcher working (since default doesn't display it either).

Also see if I can find a way to get the name in the icon, but I think that'll require a bit more work. :)

Thanks!

How do I go about showing charges or showing proper cooldowns for the stackable abilities like Plunge or Intervene?

I've been playing around with stackable auto-refreshing abilities and haven't found an "easy" way to do it as of yet. Without having a reliable way to figure out spell and effect ids (such as 04BC = Further Ruin above), it would require hours of start-cast-stop combat with dummies for every single spell/ability/effect and I don't have that kind of patience. Maybe someone who is already familiar with all the definitions of the log numbers can pitch in on that.
