The current client side code is very complex. We have the following:
  • RPGInteraction - Mysterial's initial version that handled the old L menu, shows the level and points, and shows the current Artifact
  • DruidsRPGKeysInteraction - adds to the RPGInteraction. Changes the L menu, adds extra key handling for the artifacts. Also now has the AM Artifact timing in it
  • DruidAwarenessInteraction - draws the bars for the WM/AM awareness skill
  • MedicAwarenessInteraction - draws the bars for the medic awareness
  • EngineerAwarenessInteraction - draws the bars for the engineer awareness
  • MonsterMasterInteraction - shows the extra details for monster artifacts and lists the monster points
  • EngineerInteraction - shows the extra details for the engineer artifacts, and the timer, and the turret linking

    To support the Awareness skills, we also have 3 extra classes - DruidAwarenessEnemyList, MedicAwarenessEnemyList and EngineerAwarenessTeamList. These keep lists clientside of which pawns to put bars on top of.

    Anyway, that is all much too complex. So now all the Druid interactions have been combined into one, and all the three enemylist classes have been combined. This makes things much simpler, and may get rid of some of the display problems.

    As an extra, I have moved the Engineer awareness bar down slightly, so it will sit underneath the Medic awareness bar. This means both can exist at the same time.

    So, once I have finished testing, I will enable (at the next build) for the hybrids to also have access to the awareness skills. Which I think is how it should be.
