Request - Allow burn to respect mana settings

Request for an option to allow a character burning to still respect settings for ManaToNuke, ManaToDot, etc.

I sometimes want the character to still use all of the related AAs, discs, and behaviors etc but not completely erase its mana bar and leave itself with no ability to do anything. I understand that I can make buttons to manually do these actions, but this an automation Lua after all!

I looked through the code and found the commented section about bRestrictBurns but there didn't want seem to be any way to edit manage this param that I could identify
 
You are free to edit your configs to not use this helper, or to change how it is used.
Healers generally still respect those settings when burning, if you want an example in code.
 
I now understand where the boolean true goes! (and what a boolean is)

{
name = "MagicNuke",
type = "Spell",
load_cond = function(self) return Config:GetSetting('DoMagicNuke') end,
cond = function(self)
return Casting.OkayToNuke()
end,
},


If anybody else is wanting something to respect its mana settings you need to enter the qualifier true into the field Casting.OkayToNuke(true) for any rotational item you personally want and this will tell the burn code to listen to the mana% limitation. Without this entry, it will simply use every spell in its power to make something dead asap with no other regard.

I personally wanted this for my necromancer as having no mana left to dot was a net loss over chain nuking, but the nukes still help to a point.
