Help with image part and gani.

[Ohk4y]

Hello,

I'm trying to make a health bar show up when you have a certain amount of health and change sizes above your head according to the amount of health you have.

Currently, showing the image above the players head works and shows for everyone supprisingly (it's placed in a gani and triggered with a weapon).

Though the issue I have is, the image part changes locally.. I really need it to show for everybody because it would be useless if it couldn't.
Here is the weapon I currently have:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() onTimeOut();
function onTimeOut() {
  if (player.ani == "hurt") {
  player.attr[11] = "e_hp.gani";
  }else{
  player.attr[11] = null;
  } 
setTimer(.05);
} 


Here is the Gani I currently have:

PHP Code:

SCRIPT

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() onTimeOut();
function onTimeOut() {
  showimg(802,"hp_bar.png",player.x-1.5,player.y-1);
  changeimgpart(802,0,0,clientr.player.stats.curhp*102/clientr.player.stats.maxhp,18);
  findimg(802).zoom = .5;
    if(clientr.player.stats.curhp < 1) {
      hideimg(802);
    }
  setTimer(.05);
}

SCRIPTEND 


Thanks in advance,

What's actually happening is that the script is being run on every player's computer since it's in a GANI script. The problem is that you can't access other players' clientr variables. You should put the health into another player.attr[] and use that instead of a clientr variable in the GANI.

Also, you don't need a timeout in your GANI. Try showing on onPlayerEnters and onCreated, and just set img.attachToOwner = true.

Like this?

PHP Code:

SCRIPT

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onPlayerEnters() {
  showimg(802,"hp_bar.png",player.x-1.5,player.y-1);
  changeimgpart(802,0,0,player.attr[28]*102/player.attr[28],18);
  findimg(802).zoom = .5;
  findimg(802).attachToOwner = true.
    if(clientr.player.stats.curhp < 1) {
      hideimg(802);
    }
}

SCRIPTEND

You have a period at the end of the attachToOwner instead of a semicolon, and you didn't change the clientr. variable near the hideImg. You also need to use a separate attr index for the maximum health value.

  findimg(802).attachToOwner = true;
    if(player.attr[28] < 1) {
      hideimg(802);
    }
}

SCRIPTEND 


player.attr[28] changes online

You can make that look cleaner by using findimg and a with statement.

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onPlayerEnters() {
  with (findimg(802)) {
    x = player.x - 1.5;
    y = player.y - 1;
    image = "hp_bar.png"; // should probably make that less generic..
    zoom = 0.5;
    partx = party = 0;
    partw = max(player.attr[28]*102/player.attr[28], 1);
    parth = 18;
    attachToOwner = true;
  }
} 


I'm guessing the health bar shows all the time though, and onPlayerEnters probably won't make it update properly.

It's easier just use a Weapon-NPC and draw the HP bars over everyone's head instead of using an attr to display it.

I.e:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() {
  setTimer(0.05);
}

function onPlayerEnters() {
  // Force re-draw on level change
  // Probably not necessary if just changing levels on GMAP though
  this.lastsize = "";
}

function onTimeout() {
  // Check if playercount in level changed
  if (players.size() != this.lastsize) {
    // Draw Info Blocks
    drawInfo();
    // Update last playercount
    this.lastsize = players.size();
  } else {
    // Info blocks are still the same
    // Just update their X and Y instead
    updateInfo();
  }
  setTimer(0.05);
}

function drawInfo() {
  // Initialize temp.i
  temp.i = 0;
  // Clear Drawing Array
  this.drawing = {};
  // Hide Images
  hideimgs(200, 2000);
  for (temp.p: players) {
    // Draw Block For Each Player
    with (findimg(200 + temp.i)) {
      x = temp.p.x + 1;
      y = temp.p.y + 3;
      image = "block.png";
    }
    // Add Player Object and Block ID to Drawing Array
    this.drawing.add({temp.p, 200 + 1});
    // Increment temp.i
    temp.i++;
  }
}

function updateInfo() {
  for (temp.draw: this.drawing) {
    temp.p = temp.draw[0];
    with (findimg(temp.draw[1])) {
      x = temp.p.x + 1;
      y = temp.p.y + 3;
    }
  }
} 


or...

You can remove and re-add the attr everytime their health changes.

I.e:

PHP Code:

// Remove Attr To Force Update
player.attr[27] = "";
// Re-add Attr to Display Update
player.attr[27] = "healthbar.gani"; 


I would avoid floating too much information around a player though, it ends up overlapping and just becomes useless in crowded situations.

You're using attr 28 as both the current health and the maximum health in this case, which is the problem.

If you have an index < 200 I believe the GUI will show for 'every' player. I remember because I was having a similar problem before.

I thought it was less then 250 that shows serverside :S

No, it's < 200.
