Is it ridiculous to ask for a live countdown timer in the market order spreadsheet, showing the time until you can update that order again?

After you edit a market order, there is a 5 minute cooldown before you can edit it again (5 min might be wrong. I need to double check that).

The only way to know the amount of cooldown left is to try to edit the order and then the game tells you how long to go.

The OP is asking for a timer that indicates the cooldown time remaining. It's a quality of life request and I agree.

If you are engaged in a bit of market pvp, reducing the number of clicks and giving a bit more information would be great.

When you have a market order open, you can only update it (to be the lowest or highest) only so often. I think it's like 5 minutes?

Asking for a column in the list of orders that shows each order's live countdown timer. So you don't have to guess, and have it tell you to wait another 1 minute 10 seconds.

Roll

Really?

Is it really that hard for you to look at the "Expires in" column and do some simple math?
