Gauge thingie

[Loriel]

A nifty analogous display of percentages, pretty customisable I hope. Comments?

The functions:

NPC Code:

---

function show_scale() {

  range = this.ANGLES[1] - this.ANGLES[0];

  dist = this.POINTERLENGTH * 1.2;

  for (i = this.MIN; i <= this.MAX; i += this.SCALE) {

    angle = this.ANGLES[0] + i * range / (this.MAX - this.MIN);

    showpoly index, {

      sx + sin(angle)         * dist * 1.4, sy + cos(angle)         * dist * 1.4,

      sx + sin(angle+pi*0.01) * dist * 1.3, sy + cos(angle+pi*0.01) * dist * 1.3,

      sx + sin(angle)         * dist * 1.1, sy + cos(angle)         * dist * 1.1,

      sx + sin(angle-pi*0.01) * dist * 1.3, sy + cos(angle-pi*0.01) * dist * 1.3

    };

    changeimgvis index, 4;



    colouredness = 1 - abs(gauge - i) / (this.MAX - this.MIN) * this.SCALEFADE;

    changeimgcolors index, this.SCALECOLOURS[0]*colouredness,

                           this.SCALECOLOURS[1]*colouredness,

                           this.SCALECOLOURS[2]*colouredness,

                           this.SCALECOLOURS[3];

    index ++;

  }

}

function show_gauge() {

  range = this.ANGLES[1] - this.ANGLES[0];

  angle = this.ANGLES[0] + gauge * range / (this.MAX - this.MIN);

    showpoly index, {

      sx,                                   sy,

      sx + sin(angle+pi*0.05) * dist * 0.2, sy + cos(angle+pi*0.05) * dist * 0.2,

      sx + sin(angle)         * dist * 1.0, sy + cos(angle)         * dist * 1.0,

      sx + sin(angle-pi*0.05) * dist * 0.2, sy + cos(angle-pi*0.05) * dist * 0.2

    };

    changeimgvis index, 4;

    changeimgcolors index, this.POINTERCOLOURS[0],

                           this.POINTERCOLOURS[1],

                           this.POINTERCOLOURS[2],

                           this.POINTERCOLOURS[3];

    index ++;

}

---

Example usage:

NPC Code:

---

if (created) {

  this.MAX = 100;

  this.MIN = 0;

  this.SCALE = 10;

  this.ANGLES = {pi * 0.5, pi * 1.5};

  this.POINTERLENGTH = 32;

  this.POINTERCOLOURS = {0.8, 1, 0.2, 1};

  this.SCALECOLOURS = {0.8, 1, 0.5, 0.8};

  this.SCALEFADE = 0.5;



  timeout = 0.05;

}

if (created || timeout) {

  index = 200;



  sx = 140;

  sy = 140;

  gauge = abs(mousex - playerx-1.5) * 5;

  if (gauge > this.MAX) gauge = this.MAX;

  else if (gauge < this.MIN) gauge = this.MIN;



  // Calling the magic functions 

  show_scale();

  show_gauge();



  hideimgs index, this.lastimgindex;

  this.lastimgindex = index;



  timeout = 0.05;

}

---

I figure the api sucks, and how I use gauge as variable name but this.OMGCAPITALS for most things, but dunno.

It's damn annoying to put in a level because the positions of the letters will screw up. So send us a level...

I can see it now, Era will end up with speedometers.

Nice script btw.

I was just making a statement. Since Era is a modern-based server, just... oh nevermind.

[napo_p2p]

Yeah, this script is really nice.

[WanDaMan]

I don't like, it's very very very boring.
Don't delete my post, I believe it's not allowed to delete a post which gives some critisizm

[Dach]

That isn't critiquing, that is your opinion, which happens to be unbased. This is a tool for use within other scripts, it's not going to be big and flashy and neat looking on it's own.

So Napo's post is nothing like mine? I'm just stating what in hell could a variation of light effects be used for, decpite kaimetsu's amazing 3d model?, bravo online
