Plugin only works if you're poor and new. It does not function for anyone else.

[Vanadin1]

The entirety of this plugin does not function at all unless you are poor or are a noob. I kill the crab, I am not a noob, so I get to mine it. The gemstone tracker shows nothing. Why? Because I'm not poor so I have a gem bag. The gemstone tracker doesn't track if you have a gem bag period.

Player tracking is cringe because who cares I'm top dmg anyway, no point in duration or time left tracking since it has a giant progress bar on the top, highlight shell? I'm not blind he's huge. The only point to this plugin is the gemstone tracker, so why doesn't it work? :(

So yes, this plugin is only for poor noobs who can't get top 16 dmg or don't have a gem bag.

Any idea if this can be fixed for us normies who don't suck?

1. Every single stat/tracking can be toggled so most of your complaints are null and void
2. The whole point is better AFK so yes time left matters
3. The shell highlighting is not to see where you are clicking but a visual indication of if a player can mine it or not, green for yes and red for no, this is useful for 99% of people
4. The gem bag was an oversight since gem tracking is based off the chat, was not aware that if one has a gem bag, the message did not appear, we can fix this and update it (and no the whole point of this plugin was not for gem tracking,, maybe it is for you)

@Vanadin1 Like ShaneeexD said all of this is customizable for an all in one experience. We made sure its customizable even for us poors/noobs

I'll look into fixing this, if you can give me an idea of how I should approach this. Generally speaking, how would I find the "gem" from the boss, without the use of the textbox at the bottom?
I'm assuming there's an API.
Just getting into the concept of open source development.
I just made a PR for the other issues that are currently open, I might as well look at this one too?

From looking at Item Charges Improved source, it looks like there's a game message for that: https://github.com/TicTac7x/runelite-plugins/blob/plugin-charges/src/main/java/tictac7x/charges/items/utils/U_GemBag.java#L46-L48

Actually, looks like there's no message when it goes into the gem bag. Notice there's no message for the emerald that went into the gem bag.

We use the text that is returned from mining to get it. The issue is like @rmobis said is that the gem bag doesn't output a message. We talked originally and decided to not fix this or work on it. I think it would be possible to get this to work by checking the inventory instead but there is the problem with picking up gems that you drop or ones that drop when your inventory is full. There is probably a way to handle it but felt it was a niche use case at crab.
