Been looking at the spring forums and seen all the new widgets Floris has produced for BA, some of them look lovely.

In particular -

Commands Fx

Previous version of CommandFx was tested and found too performance hungry. There's a less hungry one in ZK.

I am not sure what his Command Fx is for seeing as we have a command visibility setting which will do the whole queue. His look a bit nicer but would be too large if you wanted to display more information. The Command Fx that EErankAdminAnarchid refers to is the little colored circle that pings out of your cursor as feedback when you give a command. I think Floris wrote that too and it was included in custom formations.

I am not sure what the rezz halos are for. They seem like one of those small style mods that we don't need in the main game.

Self-D timer display is a decent idea. It could be a good idea to use our hovering icons framework to display it instead of using his widget. The framework is used for priority, armour state, xp and low power mode and deals with overlap. Including Wait would also be worthwhile.

Our "ping" command FX could probably be updated to draw lines like the new one, it looks nicer.

How would that work when shift-queuing? Does not make sense to me.

It must be the unnecessary music track he added to it...

I just tested it and it's working with zk, so why isn't this included by default yet?

My bad, I stumbled across it and assumed that the code was being kept secret because it was too awesome to share, but apparently there are lots of problems with it:

-- see #615 (too much untidy code, doesn't work for unknown reason with 96.0+, too heavy perf)

Remember that any code which isn't actively in use could have performance (or other) problems.
