Proposal
Have each "tick" down in Visibility recorded on the Combat log .... or another log if you think a different one is better.
Justification
Better management of time while playing R3.
Motivation
I need to watch my Jedi to see if the char is still ticking down in visibility.
So I find myself sitting at the Ranch while reducing Visibility not knowing if I still need to be there. Having each reduction of visibility logged in the combat log would greatly help me manage my time at the Ranch. I know I can log on to another char and play that one. But I have 4 characters.

I want to be able to reduce Visibility on my Jedi so my Jedi is ready the next time I want to play that char. But I may want to play another char when I am done with reducing Vis. Right now I have to watch and see if the reduction is still occurring. If it is in the logs, I can check the logs for the last time it ticked.

Being able to see if my Visibility dropped from the tab or have a command to show me how much I currently have would certainly be useful.
Sometimes -Visibility- dont always show (which is often the case at the shrine for me, when meditating there,) leaving me ponder if it was reduced at all.

The tick downs at The Ranch (and possibly Shrine) will stop when visibility hits zero.

Have you looked through the Visibility Wiki page?
 
the hand holding some of you want is really ridiculous , what is next make a PV asking for Yoda to send you an email when your visibility reaches zero ? because it is way hard to figure it out :rolleyes:

Its not about hand holding (bit hostile, are you) that would give some game breaking edge, but simply a tool to help the jedi with keeping eye for their visibility and see if it truly drops.
At the moment I've only seen -Visibility- drop when following the entertainer or being in ranch, but sometimes they dont show, such as at the shrines, leaving me to question if it dropped.
Idea of seeing it at the tab would only be a minor life improvement
 
I think it is intended that you only get a couple markers to estimate your Vis. NPC Messages, NPC, Spawns, inquisitors. ...
Haveing all information about which activity reduces your Vis is already enough to esimate when you are at zero or at least under a certain level. I think that is already enough information for a system that shouldn't provide any information at all.

As a previous poster stated, you are hostile which is very sad.

I seem to remember an approval for the Devs making a chat channel of some kind when it is perfectly possible for the individual player to make it.

To all "normal" people posting .... no one wants to sit and watch a Jedi's visibility tick down. We are here to play the game that in my mind is the best version of SWG EVER.

All this is , is a one line piece of code that displays the down tick in the Combat Tab so no one has to baby sit a character and move on with the game.
