Overlay app

A round widget drawn with SVG: a ring that sweeps once a minute, a clock, and a Ping button that times a call to the game.

    How it works

    The hole in the middle and everything outside the ring is transparent, so clicks there reach the game. Any shape works.

    window.rednode.call("game.info") asks the plugin for the game's frame number; the time it takes is the round trip to the game.

    Pages get host events with window.rednode.on: link when the game connects, focus when the overlay gains or loses focus.

    What it uses

    Copy the files into red4ext/plugins/REDnode/apps/signal/ in the game folder, or start your own package from them: change id and name in the manifest first. The whole folder is on GitHub.
