Animation

Data Source

Indicators receive data from XML elements:

<indicator id="IconSTUNNED" visible="y"/>
<indicator id="IconHIDDEN" visible="n"/>
<indicator id="IconPOISONED" visible="y"/>

The visible attribute determines active state.

Troubleshooting

Indicators not showing

1. Verify condition is actually active
2. Check indicators list includes the condition
3. Ensure show_inactive = false isn’t hiding it

Wrong icons

1. Check style setting
2. Verify icon font support in terminal
3. Use text fallbacks if needed

Layout issues

1. Adjust width and height
2. Change layout mode
3. Reduce number of indicators
