Display not updating

Wed, 01 Feb 2012 19:31:43 +0000

Code:

HealthMeter
    parent_type = /HudGroup
    icon = 'health-bar-demo.dmi'
    layer = MOB_LAYER + 5
    New()
        ..()
        for(var/i = 1 to 10)
            var/px = i * 16 - 16
            var/py = 32
            add(px, py, "health")
    proc
        update(value)
            world<<"Health Called!"
            for(var/i = 1 to 10)
                var/HudObject/h = objects[i]
                if(i <= value)
                    h.icon_state = "health"
                else
                    if(h.icon_state == "health")
                        flick("hurt", h)
                    h.icon_state = "empty"
mob
    proc
        UpdateHUD()
            if(src.client)
                //var/HPPercent = src.Stamina/src.MaxStamina
                //var/n = max(0,min(round(HPPercent*10)))
                var/n = rand(0,10)
                src<<"Before Health Call"
                health_meter.update(n)
                src<<"After Health Call"
                spawn(10)
                    src.UpdateHUD()

Problem description:

Essentially, the hud doesn't update. The 'before call' message is displayed, but neither the 'called' or 'after call' messages are...

Any ideas?

Splash screen params for a 'full screen' game

Thu, 01 Dec 2011 18:10:06 +0000

Code:

        winset(src, null, {"
            default_window.child_main.left      = "pane_splash";
            default_window.can-resize           = "false";
            default_window.statusbar            = "false";
            default_window.titlebar             = "false";
            default_window.macro                =  null;
            default_window.menu                 =  null;
        "})

Problem description:

So, I've got a rough game outline that is 'full screen'. By this I mean it's a widescreen game with no tabs, only a map window.

I've set up a splash screen as I would normally.

But obviously the first line of those params is wrong... Obviously I want the main child to be the splash pane, but the game itself doesn't use childs! So how can I perhaps make the pane a main window instead. Or, if possible plainly make it revert to the main window after showing the splash screen?

Scale not working properly

Sat, 12 Nov 2011 19:08:50 +0000

Code:

obj/HUDS
    HP
        layer = 69
        HpBar
            New()
                var/icon/I = new('Health bar.dmi')
                I.Scale(150,150)
                src.icon = I
            icon_state = "100"
            screen_loc = "2,15"
mob
    proc
        UpdateHUD()
            if(src.client)
                var/healthpercent=round(src.Health/src.MaxHealth*100,100)
                if(healthpercent>100) healthpercent=100
                if(healthpercent<0) healthpercent=0
                for(var/obj/HUDS/HP/X in src.client.screen)
                    X.icon_state=num2text(healthpercent)

Problem description:

Is what comes out, while the stuff in the red circle should come out as this...

Have I done something wrong in the code or?.... The icon's size is 150x150 so I'm not sure why it isn't coming out as it should?

EDIT - My map format was wrong, all fixed now.

Map format changed to TOPDOWN_MAP

Problem with Hud size..

Tue, 27 Sep 2011 16:31:28 +0000

Code:

obj/HUDS
    HP
        layer = 69
        bigatom_mode = BIGATOM_ON // Is this even what the big_atom tag should be?
        HpBar
            icon = 'Health bar.dmi'
            icon_state = "100"
            screen_loc = "2,15"

Problem description: Basically, I'm wondering if its possible to either make big_atom work with a hud OR, if its possible to change the objects in-game size to be whatever it is...

Or do I really have to break it up into each chunk? D:

Well...

Thought I'd post something for once... Well, AS exams are currently killing me. Music + Music Tech coursework deadlines did infact temporarily destroy me.
On Byond news... Apparently BYONDAnime is now desolate and don't bother checking submissions etc.
ATP has infact collapsed. I have picked up on my rip again.
On me news... I've decided to start playing WoW in the summer... Summer will hopefully consist of playing gigs, getting pissed, and playing WoW through the night.

FMA news - Still waiting on Chris Gayle's release of his pixel projectile library.
NNA news - Update in the oven, should be out at the weekend.

Well...

Well... I bought DCUO on PC, it's cross platform so, if you're the EU server 'Brightest Day' add me, I'm called Ojay and I'm a hero :]

P.S - If you do add me, don't expect a stupendous amount of help or anything, if I'm in the area and feeling nice I'll help, otherwise I won't.

In other news, music tech coursework is a bitch.

The Quantum phenomena segment of Physics is supremely easy <3

And, ATP have apparently turned to crap. It's a sad day indeed.

DC Universe Online

Mon, 31 Jan 2011 16:53:44 +0000

I'm gonna get DCUO plainly cos it looks soooo good, and I've wanted it since I knew it was in development.

The one question being- PC or Ps3

PC has the option of lifetime subscription (Yes it's subscription based, stfu.) for £120 which is the same cost as 12 month's of gameplay... The ps3 has no such offer unfortunatly... This is where I'm leaning at the moment :p

Anyone else fancy chippin' in to talk about it?

How to display location for checks

Sun, 02 Jan 2011 14:28:06 +0000

            Enter(A)
                if(ismob(A))
                    var/mob/M = A
                    if(M.client)
                        var/turf/t = src
                        if(t.loc == "3,33,1")
                            M.loc = locate(7,91,2)
                        if(src.loc == "9,34,1")
                            M.loc = locate(19,91,2)
                        if(loc == "14,34,1")
                            M.loc=locate(31,91,2)
                        if(loc == "19,34,1")
                            M.loc=locate(43,91,2)
                        if(loc == "26,34,1")
                            M.loc=locate(55,91,2)

I tested the first 3 doors, none of them worked, my conclusion is that I'm checking the loc through the wrong means... Anyone know how I could do this?

Hmmm...

Was just thinking; I haven't done anything on Byond in a while, I'm needing motivation as A level math's is breaking my skull.

I'm open to suggestions for developing a new library or demo to explain things that people want in new games these days.

May the spam commence.
