By ‘randomly’, I mean disconnects that happen without either me manually logging out, the game server going down, or the AFK timer. MSBT is designed to be an extremely lightweight, efficient, and highly configurable mod that makes it easier to see combat information by scrolling the information on the screen in separate, dynamically creatable scroll areas. It is a replacement for Blizzard's Floating Combat Text and Damage output. Features: Lightweight and efficient design.
