Graphically Displaying HP Percentages

[taliss]

In this SS The percentages of DMG are displayed, How would one go about achieving this? Any help would be appreciated.

At the moment i only can remember of old Mentor/Deboon client having this, maybe someone merged that into another client as the screenshot is this world...

UNION Client, It shows percentages. For future reference this simply uses a numerical number to reflect the decay stage rather than a shade of red. It would be amazing if it was an accurate percentage though. Or an HP reading that allowed you to count down the remaining HP.

Just edit the res files of the damaged segments and put numbers or some other indicators on

For exact damage numbers the server prolly needs to send you the information (while i don't know whether the server has accurate numbers -> RNG)

NOOBY

Which .res files and what to edit in there ?!? Nothing else to do? !?

No these changes are an overlay and haven't got anything to do with res images. The red tint is placed on objects as a number is received from the server. The number can be found in mapview.java on one of the lines I have forgotten about. If anyone wants it I'll try dig it up. The 25% values are basically a text display like name tags generated as the value changes from 0 as not damaged to 3 or something being 75% damaged.

I didn't fix this on my own client cause I didn't know how to find a good way to make that text display. It semi complicated to setup so unless your up for a challenge it wont be easy to add.

About getting the exact damage value its impossible but it's possible to get a more detailed damage value by bashing objects. The hourglass displays the damage the object have taken from 0 to 21.

Xcom i've been ironical about NOOBY

Just as an example (Do not use )

Code: Select all

Config.java
 89   public static boolean showHP = false;
326   showHP = options.getProperty("showHP", "false").equals("true");
410   options.setProperty("showHP", showHP ? "true" : "false");

MapView.java

1292    if (Config.showHP) {
        GobHealth hlt;
     if ((hlt = (GobHealth)((Gob)part.owner).getattr(GobHealth.class)) != null) {
       String f = "\n"+Float.valueOf((float)(hlt.asfloat() * 100.0D)) + "%";
       g.text(f, part.sc().add(10, 20));
             }
1298   } 

MenuGrid.java

327  } else if (list[1].equals("showhp")) {
            Config.showHP = !Config.showHP;
           String str = "Display Buildings Health: " + (Config.showHP ? "ON" :      "OFF");
           this.ui.cons.out.println(str);
            this.ui.slen.error(str);
332           Config.saveOptions();
