System preview

I just though I would post a screenshot of my new system NPC for Galactica (Dolphonia II). In other words it could be called as a showoff shot. I made it from scratch with all images made by me except for the weapons, swords, carry objects, rupees, bombs, and darts
I am also looking for some help on the server...mainly LATs. I'm having trouble with a huge load of levels, graphics and npcs.
So if I could get a few LATs it would take alot of weight off my shoulders.
Anyway...here's the image:

It's nice, but a bit too big (Since some people play Graal in the default window size that Graal uses), so in other words if it's smaller it'd be better.

lol lots of people straining trying to see throught it

[sharkey]

what happens when you have an actual world map there and it gets in with the A stats?

[G_yoshi]

I believe someone mentioned it before, but I will still say it to emphasize it. Not many players max their window. I don't because it slows down the game because it has to draw more on the screen to keep it updated. Make your images smaller, or redo them. Not everyone has a 1024x720 display...I only have 800x600.

So that would be too big and it will trail off screen. Best thing to do is to use screenwidth and screenheight for players that use larger screens.

[konidias]

Yeah it's kind of big.. put one half of it on the top of the screen or something.. like the asd or the other part

[LiquidIce00]

nice I like the stuff that shows if u got spin and all but its too big yes =(

[Falcor]

Oh, My, God....

I could easily make the script detect if your screen is large or small and I could make a few different sizes of the stats image I made.
I did use screenwidth and screenheight by the way...what else would you do with a system like that.
It is scripted to work on free player worlds.
I still have a few more things to update in it...but there's one thing I need help on.
I want the 'A' section to show if you can pick the object up or not...like if you are not standing next to anything, it shows everything which you can pick up. But if you're standing next to a bush or rock or something...only that object shows up.
I am hopeless with 'board[]' and wondering if someone could show me how to do it.

Thanks.

heh, i remember that server. It was always so damn dark! But you guys did come up with that cool idea to show the inside and the outside of a house together....I was wondering what happened to that server....oh well, now i know.

May be only display the thing when you press
a special key or when it changes,
e.g. when you are hurt you see your hearts,
when you get a gralat then the gralat count is
shown for 10 seconds?

First of all Stefan, I was going to make some things appear when hit or collected more of it...but people always want a view of their health. So if someone asks them to spar, instead of using all the energy to type something like "showhp" you can save a bit of energy plus speed by just moving your eyes a bit to the right.
I might do it for some things, but you have to think of the people. Now, sorry to say this but I think it's just one thing you aren't used to doing. Thinking of the people.
One thing, you make Graal, free game, playable online, great graphics (for the game which it is), and it could be edited to no extent by the players.
It was great back then.
But now you have made it P2P and taken alot of fun out of the game, for your own benefit.
If you want money...please...get it through advertising. Graal is so popular and having a few ads on graal would be fine...even if they were permanent.
Anyways, back to the main topic, I always get a bit carried away when talking about that.
I may mix some stats around the screen so it doesn't look too crowded, but it's all in time. And I don't have much time for graal for about another 2 weeks because of schooling matters.

One other thing Stefan, I'm positive that the script can be made much shorter and create a bit less lag...so I was wondering, if I sent it...you would be able to send a few tips on how to make it shorter.

Well, well, well. Here it is I hope...the finished System I have made.
I made a huge heap of changes which some people have told me to make.
First of all:
-I will be keeping the smaller sprite gif I have made (gpw-bottomstat_sml.gif)
-I have used 'screenwidth/2' to work with most peoples liking.
-You can see everything from the system when the screen is about 3-4 inches or higher.
-Taken off one side of the weapons box for large gifs.
-Changed whole layout

...Stefan, I'm still wondering if I should make them pop up when you get hit or collect something. I'm just not sure how much lag it will create. I may test it for the current system (shown below) does not make any lag at all.

There are a few more changes but I'm pretty sure they're very slight and don't need mentioning.
Any more ideas, please post here and I'll see to them. You should see this sytem online sometime in the future



btw Check out my new site I am making: [ Delph Inc. ]
(If you have Netscape Navigator don't bother, I haven't finished the script for your browser and all you will see is images all over the place.)
