Spell cooldown

[Malygos10]

Is there any way to show spell cooldowns? Would be very helpful.

There is not many spells so u can count...

or u mean boss spells?
do i smell "DeadleBossMode" copy from WoW? srsly it was worst addon made for WoW in ever!

but i think spam spell like fire ball could have spell CD removed cos sometimes u have to cancel spell cast due to dispell or move from inferno or ashes to ashes spell, and than u have to wait to cast it again.

Counting the cooldown isn't that easy, and showing cooldown still would be great.

This is not possible with the wc3 engine, as you do not have access to spell cooldowns via code at all.

Zwieb, could u make it like dota? It shows yours skill cooldown. It would be awesome

Where's the problem with the current way cooldown works? Is it too hard to check the grey circle on the icon?

 

[Hawajska]

Nothijng hard at all.

But for some spell with longer cd sometimes u cant be sure if rdy or not, so u have like 1-2 sec delay if u were waiting only for this spell.

Is it possible to add flsash effekt on icon when cd is ready?

No. You can't do something like that in wc3 without modifying the exe.

I dont really see the problem, if you just press the hotkey and the cooldown isnt ready yet, you get a message "cooldown not ready".

Yesh Muzzy, but most of spell require targeting, and if some1 want to do it rly fast for best performance and cooldown isn't ready than instead he only select unit he wanted to hit with spell. Than u waste precious time to select, hero, open spell book and recasts spell.

But this cd thing is not rly important cos u can alvays change rotation a bit to use spell when its ready in 100%
