Player ap bar

[sssssssssss]

PHP Code:

function onTimeout() {
  temp.img = "armageddon-bar.gif";
  temp.img2 = "armageddon-ap.gif";
  showimg(200, img, 20, 20);
  changeimgvis(200, 4);
  changeimgpart(200, 0, 0, (player.ap / 100) * getimgwidth(img), getimgheight(img));  
  //showimg(201, img2, 19, 19);
  //changeimgvis(201, 4);
  setTimer(0.05);
} 


Trying to make a new bar for player ap. Using this, it does absolutely nothing, which is weird because

PHP Code:

player.hearts / player.fullhearts 


works fine.

Also, img 201 is showing on top of img 200, is there a way to change this? Need 200 on top of 201.

[sssssssssss]

Well player.ap started magically working now. Still wondering how to show the img in the order i need on the screen.

Put one on layer 5. In your case:

changeimgvis(200, 5);

[fowlplay4]

Any layer 4 and over can be displayed, so you can do things like..

changeimgvis(200, 5);

but the FP4 way is using findimg like so:

PHP Code:

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

function drawAPBar() {
  with (findimg(200)) {
    image = "armageddon-bar.gif"; 
    x = 20;
    y = 20;
    layer = 4;
  }
  with (findimg(201)) {
    image = "armageddon-ap.gif";
    x = 20;
    y = 20;
    layer = 5;
  }
}

function onTimeout() {
  // Adjust the image width here using changeimgpart or partw, parth variables.
  setTimer(0.05);
}

Bull****. Both findImg() and showImg() are valid GS2.

It's perfectly fine to use changeimgvis(200, 5); :P

EDIT: What Crow said ^

[sssssssssss]

Oh.
ty.

Actually, one more question. Its probably just math, but I dont know.
Instead of it starting from top to bottom, is there a way to make it bottom to top?

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
//Needs to show the this.apsbar on the complete left, like zelda hp, but for ap. 
//Needs to show the image armageddon-wepicon.gif beside new ap 
//bar, like zelda, and work with showing the wepicon image 
//in the center of it. example at:
//http://old-wizard.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/zelda_1.jpg

function onCreated(){
  showStats(allstats - 1 - 64 - 512 - 128);
  with ( findImg( 2000 ) ) {
    text = "--- Life ---";
    font = "Arial";
    style = "bic";
    zoom = .8;
    layer = 4;
    mode = 1;
    x = 560;
    y = 15;
    textshadow = true;
    shadowcolor = {0, 1, 0};
  }
  drawAPBar();
  onTimeout();
}
function drawAPBar() { 
  with (findimg(200)) { 
    image = "armageddon-bar.gif";  
    x = 27; 
    y = 27; 
    layer = 5; 
  } 
  with (findimg(201)) { 
    image = "armageddon-ap.gif"; 
    x = 20; 
    y = 20; 
    layer = 4; 
  } 
} 
function onTimeout() {
  temp.img = "armageddon-bar.gif";
  temp.img2 = "armageddon-ap.gif";
  changeimgpart(200, 0, 0, getimgwidth(img), (player.ap / 100) * getimgheight(img));  
  setTimer(0.05);
}

Yes, probably something like this:

PHP Code:

  changeimgpart(200, 0, 0, getimgwidth(img), getimgheight(img) - ((player.ap / 100) * getimgheight(img))); 


[Codein]

Off the top of my head, here's how I'd do it:

Subtract percentage of imageheight from imageheight, let this be part y;
Let percentage of imageheight equal part height.

Not sure if it'd work.

I didn't say it wasn't. I personally like to see findimg, it's a little more flexible and looks better than doing:

PHP Code:

function comparison() {
  // Showimg
  showimg(200, "block.png", 20, 20);
  changeimgvis(200, 4);
  changeimgcolors(200, 1, 0.5, 0, 0.5);
  // Findimg
  with (findimg(200)) {
    image = "block.png";
    x = 20;
    y = 20;
    red = 1;
    green = 0.5;
    blue = 0;
    layer = 4;
  }
}

You shouldn't say "This is the GS2 way" against valid GS2 code then :/

Why? set(varname) is valid GS2 but that doesn't make it the GS2 way to do things.

It's deprecated. changeimgvis() has not be declared obsolete. It can be useful to use the function when setting values only once and such, since it's less to type. Both are perfectly acceptable.

It's my personal belief that you shouldn't be able to access TShowImg (or any object) members anyway. They should all have methods for that. We're using an Object-Oriented language which completely gives the finger to encapsulation. Wtf Stefan?

Fair enough, edited my post above.
