Boss healthbar overhaul

This mod changes how boss healthbars work in a fully configurable way.

Improved targeting behavior

In vanilla, if you're fighting several bosses, the healthbar that actually shows up is the one for the boss that is closest to you. This makes zero sense for ranged vocations and can be extremely confusing. With this mod, if you hit a boss, its healthbar will be forcefully shown for a default of 10 seconds (or until you hit another boss). That way, you can keep better track of the health of the boss you're actually attacking.

Missing healthbar dots

In DD1, clearing boss healthbars was more satisfying because you could see how many dots you had already emptied. This mod restores such behavior.

Animation on healthbar dots when clearing a healthbar

Additionally, this mod adds a quick animation to the healthbar dots when a healthbar gets cleared, which makes taking down healthbars much more satisfying.

Chimera healthbars

A healthbar will now be shown on the snake tail of the chimera and both the snake tail of the gorechimera and its lion head, when hitting those regions.

Boss names can now be displayed above their healthbars, including Bestiary variants if you're using it. You can configure for how long it shows up (including permanently), and importantly, the position in the screen. Go to the script runner in the REF menu and click reset scripts to see your changes to the name display position and find what works for you. You can also change the boss names to your preferred language, though you'll have to do this manually by typing the name of each boss.

All features can be toggled on/off and configured by opening the script
