Better Item Description

Description
for tome 1.7.4

This addon makes items description easier to read and determine on a glance it's usefulness
- sorts all stats by category - DPS/DEF/MISC
- item's passive power always the same blue color (not a random blue-yellow-pink-green)
- item's usable power - always yellow
- all rarity categories are displayed
- encumbrance value moved to the right under item name
- "on hit" powers always green
- "Stats" have an orange highlight and placed before other attributes because it's most important one
- Removed many extra-explain details, which any veteran player would not want to read each time
for example, stat S.pwr/crit shorten from "Spellpower on spell critical (stacks up to 3 times)"
means you do remember that it can stack only 3 times, and is not so super important anyway
- DLC supported - Orcs/Ashes/Cults
- few bug-fixes along the way

Explanation of some abbreviations
- Requirements only shown for those you don't meet. If you want to see all reqs - hold CTRL
- "Phasing" stat means - "Damage Shield penetration", the name was taken from the source and looks good to me, and short enough
- The "-" minus sign at the end of stat mean immunity or reduction of some sort, for example "Blind-" = "Blindness immunity",
- "Max.summ" = Max wilder summons
- "Summ.HP.reg" = Life regen bonus (wilder-summons)
- "Def/telep" = Defense after a teleport
- "Res/telep" = Resist all after a teleport
- "Dur/telep" = New effects duration reduction after a teleport
- "On hit.r1","on crit.r2" = r means radius, so "on hit r1" means damage in radius 1 on weapon hit, r2 - in radius 2
- "Equi/ret" = means equilibrium_regen_when_hit, same with other resources
- Dmg.Resnn = damage resonance

How you can check which abbr. means what by yourself:
1 Go to "Steam\steamapps\common\TalesMajEyal\game\addons"
2 Find "tome-better_item_desc.teaa"
3 Copy it somewhere from that folder and unzip
4 Then open "\tome-better_item_desc\superload\mod\class\Object.lua" in any text editor
5 Do the search for needed term, like "Equi/ret"
6 You'll find the line like
compare_fields(w, compare_with, field, "equilibrium_regen_when_hit", "%+.2f", mod_align_stat( "Equi/ret"))
where equilibrium_regen_when_hit is usually more detailed explanation of the stat
7 or just post comment with questions and don't bother :)

it's not recommended to use this mod if you'r new to the game

This mod is safe to enable without starting new game

Why is this mod not recommended for new users? Curious as I am new to the game and find the original descriptions quite confusing.
