Timers (Spells, Abilities, Disciplines)

[Rogean]

I need a quick discussion regarding the classic operation of these mechanics.

I have been told that certain timers back in the day would not count down while logged out or zoning.

Example, if you were to mem the spell Divine Aura and immediately log out, then log back in 20 minutes later, the spell gem (which is normally a 15 minute recast) should not be available to cast. However, as it works right now on P1999, the timers still work while logged out and the spell would be available.

I wanted to confirm that the current mechanic is not operating correctly as I'm doing work in this code and will be changing it.

I also need to know the same for Abilities such as Mend, Harm Touch, etc.

And then I also need a discussion on Disciplines, as I believe they may be the exception to this rule (Are they suppose to reduce their timer while offline).
