Finimg, showimg, hideimg index?

[Adddeeee]

Hi!

Thinking of creating a health system. I searched the forum and have come to the conclusion that I need to use findimg(), hideimg() and showimg().

When using either I need to specify an index. I need to know the index of the "heart" images in order to hide them and display any other images instead.

Where do I find all the indexes of the default images drawn on the screen?

And does it matter what index I put to my own "hearts" images?

Thank you

Thats handled by something different. You can find how to modify those graphics via http://wiki.graal.net/index.php/Showstats

Ahaaa...thought that was for hiding the hearts shown over the players head when hit.

But what if I want to add new images? Can I choose whaterver index I want to? Doesn't it exist any list with restricted indexes?

[Twinny]

Indexes up to 200 can be seen by all players. Starting with 201+, only the local player will see the images. Just remember to use layer 4 so they draw to GUI layer rather than tile layer.

What happens with an image under 201 but on layer 4? I'm not rightly sure

[Adddeeee]

Okay Where do I deside the layer no. ?

Thanks!

This is the documentation for findimg:

TServerNPC.findimg(int) - returns object

It, more specifically, returns a TShowImg, which is a type of object.



Let's see what we can do with TShowImgs... type /scripthelp TShowImg in RC.

A bunch of stuff should pop up, including something like...

TShowImg.layer - integer

This is what we want.



So to actually use this information:

PHP Code:

temp.i = findimg(201);
temp.i.layer = 4;

Thank you Feeling kind of dumb now when you just find all that info in such a short time! Still struggling to get used to the detective work that has to be done!

But I'm getting there! Thank you all !

[WhiteDragon]

No problem. Much of GS2 mastery is gaining familiarity with all the functions and quirks of the language. /scripthelp goes a long way but hardly the whole way. The various wikis (http://wiki.graal.net and http://wiki.graal.us) are also useful.

Thank you for your replies earlier

I managed to get my own images shown instead of the default hearts. Although, we've decided to use a health bar instead of just images.

But I'm not really a fan of the onTimeout function used. Feels like it could be done without a timer running constantly?

Isn't there any event that handels onPlayerHurt or do I need to write such an event by myself?

Here's the code we use:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated()
{
  new GuiControlProfile("TextProfile") 
  {
    fontcolor = "0 0 0";
    fonttype = "Arial";
    fontsize = 25;
    fontstyle = "b";
  }
    
  new GuiProgressCtrl("HealthControl_Bar") 
  {
    profile = GuiBlueProgressProfile;
    width = 360;
    height = 40;
    x = screenwidth - width - 20;
    y = 10;
    progress = player.hearts/player.fullhearts;
    
    new GuiTextCtrl("HealthConrol_Text") 
    {
      profile = TextProfile;
      x = HealthControl_Bar.width / 2 - this.width / 2;
      y = 10;
      height = 20;
      width = 80;
      text = player.hearts SPC "/" SPC player.fullhearts;
    } 
  }
  
  onTimeout();
}

function onTimeout()
{
  HealthControl_Bar = player.hearts/player.fullhearts;
  HealthControl_Text.text = player.hearts SPC "/" SPC player.fullhearts;
  setTimer(0.5);
}

ya, it's onPlayerHurt

[Adddeeee]

Ah thank you

This may be a little OT, but do you know where to find a list of all the default events? And even more OT, do you know where to find a list of the default client flags?

Thank you!

You can find a list of events in commands.rtf (GS1, just convert them to GS2), found in your Graal folder provided you installed the level editor.

Search: playerhurt

You can find player flags in scriptfunctions_client.txt, generated by Graal.exe when you start it with the -listscriptfunctions parameter. Attached it for you anyway.

Search: TServerPlayer

The documentation just isn't complete.

Edit: I guess you found the client flags.

I think this is also very helpful for commands. I don´t know if it includes events but I think it got the basic stuff which would be important

New GS2 commands.rtf
