[HOWTO] Adding a player statusBar

sparrow8332 · January 27, 2015

Well the math isnt the problem i just cant get the percent sign after it to show up... like using % or "%" ...etc... not sure if i have to use a code or something for it

This what your after ??

techfreaktwo · January 27, 2015

This what your after ??

Yes! :) How did you do it?

sparrow8332 · January 27, 2015

Yes! :) How did you do it?

((uiNamespace getVariable "osefStatusBar")displayCtrl 1000)ctrlSetText format["HEALTH: %1%2 | GRID-REF: %3 | KRYPTO: %4 | THIRST: %5%2 | HUNGER: %6%2 | ENERGY: %7", _health, "%", mapGridPosition player, EPOCH_playerCrypto, _thirst, _hunger, EPOCH_playerEnergy];

techfreaktwo · January 27, 2015

((uiNamespace getVariable "osefStatusBar")displayCtrl 1000)ctrlSetText format["HEALTH: %1%2 | GRID-REF: %3 | KRYPTO: %4 | THIRST: %5%2 | HUNGER: %6%2 | ENERGY: %7", _health, "%", mapGridPosition player, EPOCH_playerCrypto, _thirst, _hunger, EPOCH_playerEnergy];

So my code should look this then?

((uiNamespace getVariable "osefStatusBar")displayCtrl 1000) ctrlSetText format["FPS: %1 | PLAYERS: %2 | HEALTH: %3 | KRYPTO: %4 | HUNGER: %5%2 | THIRST: %6%2 | GRIDREF: %7 | RESTART IN: %8:%9", round diag_fps, count playableUnits, ((damage player - 1) * -100), "%", EPOCH_playerCrypto, (EPOCH_playerHunger / 5000), (EPOCH_playerThirst / 2500), mapGridPosition player, _hours, _minutes, _counter];

sparrow8332 · January 27, 2015

No - ive corrected yours for you :-)

((uiNamespace getVariable "osefStatusBar")displayCtrl 1000) ctrlSetText format["FPS: %1 | PLAYERS: %2 | HEALTH: %3%4 | KRYPTO: %5 | HUNGER: %6 | THIRST: %7 | GRIDREF: %8 | RESTART IN: %9:%10", round diag_fps, count playableUnits, ((damage player - 1) * -100), "%", EPOCH_playerCrypto, (EPOCH_playerHunger / 5000), (EPOCH_playerThirst / 2500), mapGridPosition player, _hours, _minutes, _counter];

sparrow8332 · January 27, 2015

if you want your hunger and thirst to show correct % then add

		_hunger = ((EPOCH_playerHunger / 5000) * 100);
		_thirst = ((EPOCH_playerThirst / 2500) * 100);

below

		_counter = _counter - 1;
		_time = (round(180-(serverTime)/60));  //edit the '240' (60*4=240) to change the countdown timer if your server restarts are shorter or longer than 4 hour intervals
		_hours = (floor(_time/60));
		_minutes = (_time - (_hours * 60));

then correct your ctrlSetText so its this

((uiNamespace getVariable "osefStatusBar")displayCtrl 1000) ctrlSetText format["FPS: %1 | PLAYERS: %2 | HEALTH: %3%4 | KRYPTO: %5 | HUNGER: %6%4 | THIRST: %7%4 | GRIDREF: %8 | RESTART IN: %9:%10", round diag_fps, count playableUnits, ((damage player - 1) * -100), "%", EPOCH_playerCrypto, _hunger, _thirst, mapGridPosition player, _hours, _minutes, _counter];

So let me get this straight the number corresponds with the second part of the list with the %.... So if i moved the "%" to the end after _couter the variable i would use would be %10 Right?

Thanks for the help by the way just trying to learn :)

no it breaks lol dont ask me why :-p just leave it where it is - it works so why move it :-)

techfreaktwo · January 27, 2015

nah i was just using that as an example to figure it out lol

But yeah thanks for the help i appreciate it

I also moved the math for damage player up as well so I have

sleep 1;
		_counter = _counter - 1;
		_time = (round(240-(serverTime)/60));  //edit the '240' (60*4=240) to change the countdown timer if your server restarts are shorter or longer than 4 hour intervals
		_hours = (floor(_time/60));
		_minutes = (_time - (_hours * 60));
		_hunger = ((EPOCH_playerHunger / 5000) * 100);
		_thirst = ((EPOCH_playerThirst / 2500) * 100);
		_damageP = ((damage player - 1) * -100);

and

((uiNamespace getVariable "osefStatusBar")displayCtrl 1000) ctrlSetText format["FPS: %1 | PLAYERS: %2 | HEALTH: %3%4 | KRYPTO: %5 | HUNGER: %6%4 | THIRST: %7%4 | GRIDREF: %8 | RESTART IN: %9:%10", round diag_fps, count playableUnits, _damageP, "%", EPOCH_playerCrypto, _hunger, _thirst, mapGridPosition player, _hours, _minutes, _counter];

I will test when i get home just coding on the windows tablet until i get home lol

Hey Sparrow thanks for your help with the other guys it got mine working...however... For hunger, health etc is says:

How did I manage to get that?

Highlander · February 4, 2015

The script works very well.

I have had one minor issue.

Periodically the status bar disappears. This is solved by logging out and rejoining the server.

Anyone else had this problem ? Has anyone found a solution ?

Anyone find a fix for this issue yet?

anyone have a working task bar with "server restart in" and "%" on health they want to share the code for please?

Moody · February 9, 2015

I need serious help here, i've tried for DAYS with no luck. I have followed this installation process step by step, idk 10 times(?). Still no statusbar loading on my server.

I can join the server, no script restrictions at all, no errors what so ever. SEM Missions runs smoothly, but this statusbar is killing me.

fn_statusbar is located inside scripts folder and statusbar.hpp in my dialog folder in my epoch.altis.pbo.

My files are uploaded

Thank you so much, i hope you are able to help me figuring this out! Its killing me, idk what to do anymore. I have tried everything i am capable of. My skills in this modding/scripting doesnt go any further, i need pro help.

Cheers!

Not a pro, very much a noob sill, but...From first glance at your description.ext file, it's all wrong. Take a look at the very first post in this thread. Scroll down for what to add in that file. All I did was downloaded the .zip, unpacked, followed the instructions and it worked the first time.

Not a pro, very much a noob sill, but...From first glance at your description.ext file, it's all wrong. Take a look at the very first post in this thread. Scroll down for what to add in that file. All I did was downloaded the .zip, unpacked, followed the instructions and it worked the first time.

Edited description to the same as it says in OP, still no bar=/

Not sure what would be going on if you did everything exactly as stated in the instructions. Somehow I believe you must have missed something, as is evidenced in what was placed in the description.ext file.

Try placing this

[] execVM "scripts\fn_statusBar.sqf";

at the top of your init. All you need to do is make sure all the pieces are in the right places. Sometimes hammering away at something like this will give you blinders after a while, and you can't see the mistake anymore. Once you get to that point, you need to take a break, and walk away for a while, and then come back to it with fresh eyes.

Could the same bar work on Arma 2?
Looks much nicer than a normal debug monitor.
