Trouble with gauges
|
I'm trying to make some gauges for hp/sp/ep tracking (I'm playing on Medievia if that helps), but I seem to be having a problem getting the color to change.
I've managed to get the text to decrement properly on the hp and sp gauges, but am still working on the math to get the ep gauge to show "ep remaining until level".
Any help/pointers anyone can give would be greatly appreciated.
I'm using the latest version of zMUD.
Thanks,
Wasperine |

Please show an example of what you already have, what it does, and what it should do that it doesn't.

Sure, no problem.
I've (finally) figured out how to get the color to change, but I've run up against a new problem: how to add the values of two variables together and assign it to a third variable.
Here's what I've got so far:
variable #1: currentxp with a value of 406,175
variable #2: tolevelxp with a value of 217,825
variable #3: maxxp with no value
Okay, I've tried #MATH maxxp @currentxp+@tolevelxp, but instead of getting the sum assigned to the variable maxxp I get this:
406,175217,825
Close, but not close enough. 
So, any hints on how to get the correct value assigned to maxxp? |

Ok, your problem is with the commas. zMUD tries to infer the type of a variable based on what it contains. When it sees the commas, it thinks that the variables are strings. You will need to remove the commas when doing the addition:
#MATH maxxp {%int(%replace(@currentxp, ",", "")) + %int(%replace(@tolevelxp, ",", ""))} |

Kjata's advice is great. I would also reccomend doing it when you are actually capturing the variable so that you only need to do it once.

Thanks, Kjata, it's working properly now.  |
