I'm not sure if there is enough info in the combat log to get this level of detail from other players that are attacking the same mob or not (haven't looked into that yet). I'll dig into this more over the weekend and see what I can figure out.No, you can't get specific skill use data from other players (for all attacks). You can however have each person in the experiment load the mod and extract saved data from SavedVariables.lua afterwards to compare notes.
The block of code after line 421 of Localization.lua on version 3.0 of Damage Meters is where you would hook into for tracking your own skill use. Just add something like:
Code:
if (spell == "Revenge")
My_Increment_Revenge_Count();
My_AddSpellToSpecificOrder(spell);
elseif (spell == "Shield Slam")
My_Increment_ShieldSlam_Count();
My_AddSpellToSpecificOrder(spell);
elseif...
.
.
