Plugin_EXPTrackerV5

The Experience tracker plugin for Genie 5 — a port of VTCifer's EXPTracker for the Genie 5 platform.

Tracks skill ranks and learning rates (mindstates) and renders them to the Experience dock window:

Learning: 4
──────────────────────────────────────
Small Edged        142 71%  examining (13/34)
Outdoorsmanship    335 82%  studious (19/34)
Astrology          432 15%  dabbling (1/34)
Scholarship        406 45%  dabbling (1/34)

It also publishes the per-skill $<Skill>.Ranks, $<Skill>.LearningRate (0–34), $<Skill>.LearningRateName globals plus $TDPs for .cmd scripts — the same surface the Genie 4 EXPTracker plugin provided.

Requirements

• .NET 8 SDK (to build).
• A Genie 5 install with the plugin system (host version ≥ 5.0).

Build

dotnet build -c Release

Output: bin/Release/net8.0/Plugin_EXPTrackerV5.dll.

The project references the Genie 5 plugin contract (Genie.Plugins.Abstractions) from a committed copy in lib/, so no NuGet feed is required to compile.

Install

Copy Plugin_EXPTrackerV5.dll into your Genie 5 plugins folder:

• Windows: %APPDATA%\Genie5\Plugins\
• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Genie5/Plugins/
• Linux: ~/.local/share/Genie5/Plugins/ (or $XDG_DATA_HOME/Genie5/Plugins/)

Then in Genie 5 either:

• Reconnect — plugins load on connect, or
• Plugins → Load → Plugin_EXPTrackerV5.dll (menu), or
• #plugin load Plugin_Experience (command bar).

Open the panel via Window → Experience, then type exp in-game (or train a skill) to populate it.

Manage

From the Plugins menu:

• Enable / Disable → Experience — toggle without unloading (panel blanks when disabled; re-enabling repaints on the next prompt).
• Unload → Experience — fully remove (releases the .dll).
• Load → Plugin_EXPTrackerV5.dll — load it back.

Or from the command bar:

#plugin list
#plugin enable  Experience
#plugin disable Experience
#plugin unload  Experience
#plugin load    Plugin_EXPTrackerV5
#plugin reload
#plugin folder

How it works

• Reads the live <component id='exp Skill'>…rank pct% mindstate…</component> push the StormFront XML stream emits as skills pulse.
• Also parses the exp verb's full-dump text for the complete snapshot.
• Re-renders the Experience window on each <prompt> when anything changed.

The plugin has no UI dependency — it writes formatted text to a named window via the host API (SetWindow("Experience", …)), and the host surfaces that window as a dock panel.
