Purple KO Counter

I brought this up in another old thread but never realy had any input on it.

Does anyone have any idea or clue on how to create the purple kill counter for Dis City?

I know the red counter during cyclone or superman is part of a client effect, but that doesn't seem to be the case for the purple one.
All the client effect's are pretty well known, and it certainly came before all the Top Fire, Top Deputy etc effects.

I have had a suggestion that it may actually be a map flag, I have done a little testing on those but never managed to create it.

I highly doubt it is a string effect, since those are only temporary effects.

The only other thing I can conclude is that it may be a separate packet.

So does anyone have any suggestions apart from logging it? (I don't have a packet logger or access to a binary).
Can be for any patch, but I am currently working on 5065.

I am pretty sure that around that version, you won't find any purple KO counter for the DisCity quest simply because I don't recall any purple KO counter to be used for that quest. You mean that this counter, counts the mobs required to kill in Stage 3? If that's so, I recall that a gourd was used to track the killed mobs and no KO counter was displayed.

I might be wrong, it's long time since I've bothered to look into the DisCity quest.

This seems to be an older client. Its before the legends return expansion which was in the 5200's.

As you wish...

Oh, that one... The effect name is "CountT". The original blue counter is "CountB" and is displayed trough client with the var "CountB%c" so I suppose it goes the same for the purple one.

By using "CountT0" - "CountT9" I can display the purple number in the middle of the screen using the string packet.
But it won't become the active kill counter.

This instruction above is sent for the CountT block but not in the CountB block. Might it be a flag or something idk...

That doesn't tell me anything, sorry

Like the other counters that I've found in Conquer Online, it might be a general action packet that does the trick. Which subtype of the packet, I'm not entirely sure. You'll have to do a bit of research. Maybe someone a bit more confident can confirm or deny my claims.

You were correct. I didn't realize the subtypes went that high.
