healthBar

[raminkhan]

how can I make a auto filler health bar. I mean when I hit my character, the health decreases but when i don't hit him I want his health to increase automatically how?

In draw actor of the player, have this somewhere

Make a variable called "timer" and do this

Code: Select all

timer++;
if(timer>=30 && HP<50) // 1 second, 50 is max HP limit
{
    HP++;
    timer=0;
}


Every 1 second HP will go up by 1.

Great simple code Hblade. Raminkhan, just make sure your game speed is 30 frames per second in order for the health to regenerate 1 point per second.

Hblade, better to use real_fps instead of 30.
So the code would be:

Code: Select all

timer++;
if(timer>=real_fps && HP<50) // 1 second, 50 is max HP limit
{
    HP++;
    timer=0;
}

Ahh yes I forgotz about that.

[raminkhan]

but I dont get it, timer++ why do i need to make this variable? what is this variable? and how would this code load my individual health pieces which makes up a full health bar?

The timer variable is what makes sure this increasing of hp only occurs once a second. All the variable does is increase to some value, and then increase hp, while setting it back to zero. If you look at the if statement, that's all it does (because it is in draw, it just repeats over and over). Now, how are you displaying hp? It sounds like you are using individual actors, in which case I'd suggest you not. It gets more complex if you do that, while the idea behind using an animation is much easier.
