Canvas HP bar (Version 4) - Sword Style

[Hblade]

WARNING: New actor variables named RR, GG, and BB must be created before this will work properly :3

Sword Style: (Not available in demo)

How to use:
First, you want to set the variable called "bartmp" to what ever you want, such as HP for example. Then:

Code: Select all

SetSecondColor(177, 177, 177);
DrawBar(3, MAXHP, 200, 200, 200);
SetBackColor(155, 155, 155);


You set the border first, then you draw the bar (3 is sword), MAXHP is the width of the bar, (you can put anything), and the 3 200's are the color.
Setbackcolor determines the color of the lfie bar when drained.

Code: Select all

void DrawBar(int STYLE, int w, int R, int G, int B) {
    int i, i2, i3, i4;
            erase(0, 0, 0, 0);
                for (i2=4;i2<w-3;i2++) {
        setpen(BRC, BGC, BBC, 0, 1);
        moveto(i2, 2);
        lineto(i2, 14); }
                    for(i=4;i<bartmp-3;i++) {
        setpen(R, G, B, 0, 1);
        moveto(i, 2);
        lineto(i, 14);
                       }
    switch(STYLE) {
        case 0: //Bar Style
        setpen(RR, GG, BB, 0, 1);

WARNING!
Before using this, you MUST create these variables or else you will get errors :3 This code uses actor variabels, which is why.

• BRC - Actor Variable
• BGC - Actor Variable
• BBC - Actor Variable
• bartmp - Global Variable

In my demo you see that I have 2 more variables, HP and MAXHP. Those are for the bar, you can see how that was done in the demo :)



HOW TO USE
First, you want to set the background color of the bar like so:

Code: Select all

SetBackColor(r, g, b);


Then, you want to set the main color of the bar ^^ (The white part on the screenshots, you can change that color :) the color for the outside of the bar) like this

Code: Select all

SetSecondColor(r, g, b);


Now, last but not least -- You want to "draw" the bar :) There are 3 different styles, Bar 1, Bar 2, and Basic, as seen in this screenshot.

To use different ones, simply use this code

Code: Select all

DrawBar(style, width, r, g, b);


Replace Style with the style, (only 0, 1, and 2), and replace width with how wide you want the bar to be :)

Excellent!
As soon as i saw this, i almost immediatly wanted to use this in AXRIA. Though unfortunatly in AX the max Hp is 12, meaning it would look small, and changing enemy damage levels would take a while. Also may require fiddiling with the Health bars code, So maybe another time.

Good job as allways Blade!

You can always modify it. Just post a topic in the support forms on how to have a health bar the size of 150 pixels, but only have 12 health and have it go down equally.

(or what you could so, like in my demo, say bartmp=health, but instead.. you'd say bartmp=health*12)

Or max HP would be 12, right? So you would put this

Code: Select all

DrawBar(MAXHP*12, r, g, b);


That would multiply it's tiny length by 12 xD Then after that, well you can say bartmp=health*12 as well that would work perfectly I think xD If not post a topic in the support forums and I'm sure someone will help you ^^

[SuperSonic]

Oh wow! I so gotta try this! It looks awsome

This would be perfect for my game. Can I have your permision to use it? (I'll add you in the credits)

[JamesLeonardo32]

You can always modify it.

I know i can modify it, and it shouldn't be too hard. I was just saying if i had the time to do it since i want the first demo out by December!

[Hblade]

Sure! ^^ Anyone can use this =D I'll also try making more themes later :3 one where you can choose the style! =D

Sweet! I'm gonna implement it in my game

And I like the new update. You should add even more styles like beveled and circular

[Hblade]

good idea xD but whats beveled ?

[SuperSonic]

good idea xD but whats beveled ?

What I meant was, you should give it a bebeled effect. Like this button made in gimp:

[Hblade]

Oh! Good idea o3o
