Hiding gui

falco10291029 · #1 09-26-2004, 03:36 PM

Ok here's the thing. This gui is scripted just fine, but if you try lowering the timeout or having something that disrypts tiomeout loops go, the gui either flashes or hides. There is nothing in it telling it to hide, so why does it? Please look over it. Note that it works fine if nothing disrupts the timeout loop, which says that the gui hides if it isnt constantly told to show for some reason.

PHP Code:


			
if (actionserverside) {

setstring clientr.#s(client.element)power,#s(server.#s(client.element)power);

setstring clientr.#s(client.element)size,#s(server.#s(client.element)size);

setstring clientr.#s(client.element)allies,#s(server.#s(client.element)allies);

setstring clientr.#s(client.element)enemies,#s(server.#s(client.element)enemies);









}

I don't see problems in the concent, but in the implementation:
Bad is the usage of

screenheight-=1

That will cause problems for the compiler, I guess you meant "screenheight - 1" ?
The "triggeraction 0,0,serverside,-GUI;" should be moved outside the timeout so
that it doesn't lag the game, e.g. if (playerenters) triggeraction 0,0,serverside,-GUI;

Advice 1: Do not listen to clueless UN managers
Advice 2: Strip your code to the bare essentials before posting it. Nobody wants to scan through pages of unrelated lines.
Advice 3: Don't just set the alpha to 0 in order to hide something.

Advice 4: Put some effort into understanding what you are doing, instead of asking for help and then closing your eyes until your script works.

Once you have succeeded, contact a mod to have this reopened, if neccessary.

I suggest since a lot of your changeimgzooms and changeimgvis's are alike, use a for () { to make them do that. another suggestion is put all your showtexts in 1 spot so it's easier to read.

1. *****
2. I have no idea whats causing the problem so it culd be anywhere
3. make me!

Edit: I would use a for loop but i dont feel like changing around a bunch of numbers to do that, i didnt make all of this script and dont want to change a bunch of things.

So gradually cut stuff out and see if the problem persists.

It doesn't work. Wouldn't that mean you have to change a bunch of things?

falco10291029 · #12 09-27-2004, 02:47 AM

no, it doesnt.....

xManiamaNx · #13 09-27-2004, 02:54 AM

Ive noticed that sometimes showimgs on layer 4 (and possibly up, not sure) will hide when playerhearts is changed by something such as a bed.

falco10291029 · #14 09-27-2004, 02:57 AM

i dont use playerhearts at all.......

You request help but you ignore the advice and suggestions of those who contribute? You are fortunate that I am no longer a moderator here.
