Notifies you when you stop mining or fishing
Documentation
Jack's Simple Skilling Notifier
A robust, focused idle notifier for Mining and Fishing in Old School RuneScape, built for RuneLite.
Unlike standard notifiers that simply check if a rock or fishing spot is empty, this plugin monitors your player's animation state, movement, and specific target. This ensures you are notified exactly when you stop skilling, even if the resource spot has moved or you were interrupted by combat.
Features
🎣 Fishing Support (New!)
- Smart Spot Tracking: Automatically tracks the specific NPC you are fishing from. If the fishing spot moves or despawns, you get notified immediately.
- Barbarian Fishing: Fully supports "Use Rod" interactions for 3-tick or standard Barbarian Fishing.
- Supported Methods:
- Barbarian Fishing (Otto's Grotto).
- Aerial Fishing.
- Minnows & Karambwans.
⛏️ Mining Support
- Rock Detection: Tracks the specific rock you are mining. If it depletes, you are notified.
- Animation Tracking: Monitors your pickaxe animation. If you stop swinging for more than 1.8 seconds (3 ticks), you get notified.
- Supported Actions:
- Dense Essence (Chipping).
🛡️ Smart Filters
- Movement Filtering: Intelligently detects when you are running to a bank or moving between spots. It suppresses "Idle" notifications while you are moving to prevent spam.
- Interaction Safety: Clicking your inventory (to drop fish/ore), the chatbox, or the ground does not falsely trigger an idle notification. The plugin knows you are still busy.
- Custom Config: Toggle Mining and Fishing notifications independently and set your own custom idle messages.
