Timers

Link: https://projects.fewfre.com/runescape/alt1-timers/
Install Link: alt1://addapp/https://projects.fewfre.c … onfig.json

A simple app that adds some visual timers (inspired by the farming timers)

Images

One column by default, but will split into 2-3 columns if the window is resized to be wide enough

Features

- Timers can be paused
- An option to show on title bar (app must be open for it to work, although it can be minimized)
- An option to have a notification open when it finishes (won't trigger if timer finished while app not open, as I felt opening it and having multiple notifications go off would be annoying)
- An option to have cursor tooltip appear while a timer is in a "done" state

TODO (maybe)

- Option to change the fill color
- Option to change visual when finished (maybe an option for a slow strobe effect or something a little eye catching)
- Add scheduled alarm-style timers (so it goes of at a specific time(s) instead of "x minutes from now") - this one is heavily in the "maybe" category
- Allow reordering timers
- Add ability to choose sfx (like afkscape) -- a bit of a pain and notifications already produce a sound, so this is low on my todo list, and probably won't bother with tbh

Source Code

App is programed in svelte and code is available on Github.

Re: Timers

This is the kind of thing I came here looking for. Is there any chance timers could be added to the title bar in order to save screen space, similar to how D&D notifications does it? I'm not sure how difficult that would be to do or if third party apps are even allowed to. Example:

Maybe clicking it to start/pause the timer, or on a button pinned to the title bar (e.g. where the D&D Notifications and DgKey buttons are on the above screenshot). Again, not sure if that's possible, but would be very useful.

Re: Timers

Added it to my todo list! Haven't been super active on adding new features, but I do like this idea! I'm not totally sure if it's possible, but doesn't hurt to look into

Alright, I was at least able to get timers in the title bars! Off by default, there's a new option on the edit form. Sadly The amount of control I have over the title bar is limited to just passing a string, so I can't enable clicking it or anything. It does also need to be open (since D&D seems to use a bit of a special way that I don't think I have access to), BUT you can at least minimize it.

Also, since the code was related in a few ways, I also added options for notifications and cursor tooltips!

An audio option was turning out to be a pain, and honestly notifications have their own sound anyways, so might drop my idea for adding custom audio sounds (like what afkscape has). Or at least moved lower on my priority.
