Suggestion: Modular approach, better performance

[dogmax]

I want to suggest that you make this addon modular in a way where you can disable features that impact loading screen time.

Example: Let's say I use both ModUI and Carthographer addons. There is no reason that ModUI loads all dungeon maps into the memory when the user is using the dungoen maps from Cartographer.

This might require that you split ModUI up into many different addons, so the user can disable ModUI's Dungeon Maps at the character screen - i dont know.

Wasn't this possible to do with the original version? That you could disable the elements that you didn't wanna use?

However, I do not know if this impacts the loading screen or not -- in other words, if they still get loaded during the loading screen.

this is definitely planned and i've begun building in the infrastructure for it ~ a GUI menu to enable or disable elements will take a little time but options can be toggled on or off in the var/var.lua file in the short-term.

feel free to highlight elements here that should have the option to be toggled on or off but i've overlooked.

elements that are disabled won't load during login or playtime.

i love the way this version is going. modui has serious performance issues (5mins in the game and fps drops to ~30), but if you make this new version modular, with similar features where we can load only the essentials for our build, will be fantastic.
