So one of the newer features of this script is that it adds a line to building/ship/research descriptions telling you how long you'll have to wait before you'll have mined enough resources to build or research each item. Do you guys actually like that feature? I think it's neat but it doesn't take long before most of your resources come in from raiding etc. which makes these values rather useless. Also, it makes "internationalizing" this script a lot harder.

Any thoughts?

Personally, I prefer the "one script - one function" approach. Makes it much easier to pick and choose what the user needs. Also, I play on at least two language servers (ogame.org and bg.ogame.org), so language independence is important to me. Finally, you might want to check with GameForge. I vaguely remember that "time to be available" was a Commander feature and, as such, is forbidden in the free add-ons. But I might be wrong about that one.

Me too, but I initially stuck them together because each one needs to set/read the same cookie, and if both are installed it'll do that twice... I'll try to think of a clever way to get around this
