Frames-Per-Second

A small script I wrote up yesterday after the idea was sparked by Downsider.
Alt+f toggles it on and off:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() {
  this.updatespeed = .5;  // SPEED THAT THE FRAMERATE IS CHECKED, > 0.05
  setTimer(0.05);
}

function onKeyPressed(keycode) {
  if (keycode == 1094) {                // OPENS WITH ALT+F
    player.showfps = !player.showfps;
    this.oldtimevar2 = timevar2 - 0.05; // START CHECK A FRAME BEHIND
    setTimer(0.05);
  }
}

function onTimeout() {
  if (!player.showfps) {
    hideimg(200);
    return;
  } 
  temp.framediff = (@timevar2-this.oldtimevar2).substring(0,5)/this.updatespeed;
  temp.framerate = int((1/framediff)*20+.5);
  // FRAME RATE CAN NOT EXCEED 20 OR HIT 0
  if (framerate > 20 || framerate == 0) framerate = 20;
  with (findimg(200)) {
    x = GUIContainer.width-150;
    y = GUIContainer.height-75;
    font = $pref::graal::defaultfontname;
    zoom = $pref::graal::defaultfontsize/24;
    layer = 4;
    textshadow = true;
    text = "f: " @ framerate;
  }
  this.oldtimevar2 = timevar2;
  setTimer(this.updatespeed);
} 


And in a level with 1024 images being displayed, running at a low fps:

Bump, since I posted this right before the forums went down.

I was thinking about a way to calculate framerate and thought about this the other night, it's convenient that you actually made it

Cool contribution.

Glad to see I sparked your inspiration

If anyone's interested, here's mine, was made, again, for version 2.2; just a version short of timevar2 being implemented:

PHP Code:

if (playerenters) {
  play framerate_silent.mp3;
  timeout = 0.05;
}

if (timeout) {
  if (musicpos == 0) {
    play framerate_silent.mp3;
  }
  this.frame+=0.05;
  if (musicpos > 1) {
    this.framerate  = this.frame/musicpos;
    stopmidi;
    this.frame = -0.05;
  }
  showtext 300,15,128,Arial,,Framerate: #v(this.framerate*20);
  changeimgvis 300,8;
  timeout = 0.05;
} 


Kinda interesting to see the workaround used, haha.
