There are some other cool in game solutions instead of add-ons (next one coming in this month is the research tracker, and transmog)
During I w8ing in Settlers, long hours for battle I play that game. 2015-2016?! after it, big changes happened there. If u like it, and same situation (you are boring between adventrues) give it another shot. (CP system, scale you up to max level, No level of monsters, you can go everywhere, all 3 faction play together in PVE, megaserver technology, scalable craft system, updated dungeon system and fixed lfg, housing system, small scaled pvp, etc. and new contents of course).
In Settlers, after u raise some levels, your island will more and more powerful you will have less and less time to try other games )
But staying on the subject!
what's the practical benefit of seeing 5 icons there or not seeing? I see the buffs on the buildings if we talk about steak buffs, you see obviously no buffs on lots of building.
To me not an useful information if a rainbow buff icon there and 30min left, and what happened when I was afk and time is up. No buff, building produce without buff, buff icon there is'not there. That is not so informative. During 4 day I forgot what was buffed. Minimum acceptable solution if this building stop working if I want and a letter with information. Or a buff tracker interface like economy overview but in middle topic of this window the buffs, and you see there buildings without buffs, valueable buffs ends etc, but to me five buff icon not so informative.
