Minor gauge upgrades
|
This is a representation of how gauges currently work.
| Code: |
0>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>X___________MAX
|
Any chance of adding these to the mix (it's the same gauge as above)?
1)experience to next level
| Code: |
MAX___________X<<<<<<<<<<<<<<0
|
2)alignment (Aardwolf style, it ranges from -2500 to 2500)
| Code: |
MAX1______X<<<<0______________MAX2
|
| Code: |
MAX1___________0>>>>>>>>X_____MAX2

just gonna bump this, would be pretty nice feature, unless it's fairly easy i'ld have to call it fairly low priority thou.

Unfortunately this isn't easy since the gauge is a 3rd party component and the "min" value is always zero and it is always drawn with the 0 value on the left. I'll consider this in the future, but it's going to need to be a low priority, sorry.

Ahhh, figured that was a custom piece of code. After thinking about this a bit, i think i can fake it with 2 gauges and some funny math, hmmm maybe even get the text to work with a transparent gauge, could be interesting bit of code!

Can you just set your max as a negative and trick it?

Well, the tricky part is that the CMUD gauge is always going to start filling the gauge from the left edge. So I don't see any way to get any "blank space" to the left of the gauge bar.

Yeah, I'm setting the background color as the color i want, or trying too.
While playing around with %btncol I noticed that there is an undocumented 4th parameter that sets the border color, could 2 more optional parameters be added, gauge low, and gauge background?
also I noticed that %btncol(test,red,,) acts just like %btncol(test,red) in that it sets the background color, which wasn't exactly the behavior I was expecting, |
