Visual Metronome

#### A plugin for Runelite

A simple overlay that changes every tick. It displays a box on your screen, displays a number, or displays your true tile that changes every game tick.

Used for the same purposes as the regular metronome, timing based activities such as PvM or 3-tick fishing. Helpful for if you don't have sound, are listening to music, or just prefer a visual cue.

Usage

Alt+click on the border of the overlay to change the size

Alt+right click on the overlay to reset to default size

Party Sync Functionality

Type the name of a player in your party

Tick Counts will be sync'd to the target player
