Custom Health Display

Basically iv scripted a bar background which stays there permanently and a red bar on top of it which on a time out when the players health changes so does the red bars width, i was wondering if there is a more efficant way of achiving this without changing the width and having tons of if statements.
Thanks in advanced im sure some of you pro's will be able to help xD

PHP Code:


		
			
width = (player.hearts/player.maxhearts)*maxWidth;

If this is what you mean. maxWidth being the full width of your image.

In whatever function you use for hitting the player, have it trigger the appropriate script, then redraw it.

I dont get why you need tons of if statements o_0

its basically just:

PHP Code:


		
			
if (health>0)
{
   part=(health/maxhealth)*maxwidth;//as jazz stated
   showimg (300,"someimage.png",posx+maxwidth-part,posy);//where posx and posy are where you want it to sit on the screen
   changeimgpart (300,maxwidth-part,0,part,imageheight);
   changeimgvis (300,4);
}
else hideimg 300;

Or do you have something different? Note this is for a horizontal bar and not a vertical although the same method can be applied

also can who ever neg repped me for this just tell me who you are... im sorry for not knowing gs2! in actual fact since its a person with high rep power im kinda half suspecting who it might be. Sorry for trying to help, I will just refrain for showing an example of what I mean.... YES THATS RIGHT! **** YOU!

ahh i see i shall have a play around with that, how does changeimhpart work? what do each int's do?

thanks for that, but wouldnt it just be as easy to use Guiwhatever.width = whatever;
that wiki seems quite handy. i might use it more instead of posting here.

If you're using GUI controls, yes. changeimgpart only works when you're using showimg.

ah ok, so how would i make i if the gui was Health_Text so that it changes the image width to how big player.health is?
also is there a way to check what the players hewlth is ajd make its width accordingly withiut using if(player.health == 3){ do this if player health 2.5 etc etcv
i dont understand how the first method works

   changeimgvis (300,4);

}

else hideimg 300;

Want to fix some of the things i did see in this script

PHP Code:


		
			
if (health>0)

{

  part=(health/maxhealth)*maxwidth; //as jazz stated

  showimg(300, "someimage.png", posx+maxwidth-part, posy); // where posx and posy are where you want it to sit on the screen

  changeimgpart(300, maxwidth-part, 0, part, imageheight);

  changeimgvis(300, 4);

}

else hideimg(300);
