Hi, i'm trying to make a health display but it doesn't seem to work...
This is what I've so far: I get all sorts of errors...
Code: Select all
hpinfo()
{
self.hpinfo = NewclientHudElem(self);
self.hpinfo.alignX = "right";
self.hpinfo.alignY = "top";
self.hpinfo.x = 400; //temporary placing.
self.hpinfo.y = 20; // same
self.hpinfo.archived = true;
self.hpinfo.fontScale = 1.4;
self.hpinfo.alpha = 1;
self.hpinfo.hidewheninmenu = true;
self.hpinfo setText(self.health);
}
}
I also tried first making a new variable self.hpleft = self.health; and put that in settext() but no luck there ...

Are you correctly calling self?
Please show us the function where you actually thread the above from.

level.modinfo.alignX = "right";

level.modinfo.hidewheninmenu = true;
level.modinfo setText("PIP-Mod Made by Pozzuh");
}

}

Who is "self"?
Self does NOT refer to a player in all circumstances, self is the entity on which the function is called.
Keep going back, where is "main()" called from.

you don't call this thread on anything so self has no meaning.

Change self in to player and define player?
Maybe that work.
