    Request - Ward Timers

    Looked through the repositories and forums and couldn't find anything like this. I have 2 ideas;

    1. The first thing I would like is a mod similar to the Rune Timer by picklefish that will recognize when you (and possibly when a teammate) buy(s) Wards of Sight, and alerts you and your team with a message when they are about to be purchasable again in the shops.

    2. My second idea is to alert you with a notification (and a ping if possible) when one of your wards on the map has expired or been destroyed. This would also apply to 's and 's eyes.

    Also I guess I'll throw out another unrelated idea I've had; a mod that will automatically switch your active attack modifier each time you attack.


    I'm not sure if any of these mods are actually possible (or allowed) or not, but I thought I would throw the ideas out there just in case.

    #1 is the only one I will support, the 2nd one you should know when you lost vision on map all of a sudden. the other one would fall under automation = no no

    3) press ALT + F4 to RAGE QUIT!
    -Note: This will NOT work if you have a chatbox focused. (Escape to unfocus a chatbox)

    Fully support both 1 & 2, i think the other idea is illegal due to current rules..

    But I don't know how you would code idea 1, its much didn't then picklefish's rune time in that a rune spawns every 2 minutes on the dot but with wards a player doesn't automatically buy them every 2 minutes, i don't know if it would be possible to code tbh, but i would love it to be made!

    This seems (seems is the key word here) really simple to make and would really help me out when someone chops down my tree if im keeper or i accidentally press e on scout. Although one problem i can see with this is when your scout and you place and eye for the silence effect and you use it a big red notificaiton comes up and a ping on your current location YOUR EYE HAS BEEN DESTROYED! There could be a way to code it as such that it doesn't alert you if you destroy, the possibilities are endless!

    All in all those are so great ideas BlacRyu.

    Yeah I know, and I did rebind them to more convenient keys, but like I said I was just throwing the idea out there in case it actually was possible.

    Yeah, even if they are codeable I'm not sure if anyone besides Idejder would know how to code it, but hopefully someone will.

    If anything, a timer above the ward would be pretty cool.

    Convenience tools like this make it easier to do just that.

    Im curious, even if suggestion #3 wouldn't be condoned by S2, is there actually anything they can do to stop people from using these mods if they make them themselves and don't release them publically?

    if its scriptable and s2 doesnt know about it. Then no. I wouldn't be surprised if this has already happened

    Anyone on this?? Just #1, and with an option to teamchat to help remind teammates that it's time again...

    yay to all 4 ideas mentioned in the op

    I'm assuming there was a former third suggestion, so I'm agreeing with "3. If anything, a timer above the ward would be pretty cool."
