In order for this to work the MSDP variables must be turned on and I would highly recommend reading Akayan's post about getting that setup
First, I went into settings and set top and bottom borders to 15 to allow room for my bars w/o overlapping my mud scroll.
Then I created a script (name is not important) to create the gauges that I used to display health/moves/mana and opponent health with the following code:
- Code: Select all
WindowWidth = 0;
WindowHeight = 0;
WindowWidth, WindowHeight = getMainWindowSize();
createGauge("HealthBar", WindowWidth/3, 15, 0, WindowHeight-15, nil, 200, 0, 0)
createGauge("MoveBar", WindowWidth/3, 15, WindowWidth/3, WindowHeight-15, nil, 0, 200, 0)
createGauge("ManaBar", WindowWidth/3, 15, WindowWidth/3*2, WindowHeight-15, nil, 0, 0, 200)
createGauge("OppHealthBar", WindowWidth, 15, 0, 0, nil, 200, 0, 0)
Next, I created a script to handle my bar updates, I called this "updatebars" and it was set to go off on the following User Defined Event Handlers:
- Code: Select all
MSDPHEALTH
MSDPMOVEMENT
MSDPMANA
MSDPOPPONENT_HEALTH
The code for this script is as follows (pay attention to the function being named the same as the script, again.. thanks to Akayan for explaining how this works):
- Code: Select all
function updatebars()
setGauge("HealthBar",atcp.MSDPHEALTH,atcp.MSDPHEALTH_MAX)
echo("HealthBar",[[<p style="font-size:14px"><center><b>]]..atcp.MSDPHEALTH..[[/]]..atcp.MSDPHEALTH_MAX..[[</b></center></p>]])
setGauge("MoveBar",atcp.MSDPMOVEMENT,atcp.MSDPMOVEMENT_MAX)
echo("MoveBar",[[<p style="font-size:14px"><center><b>]]..atcp.MSDPMOVEMENT..[[/]]..atcp.MSDPMOVEMENT_MAX..[[</b></center></p>]])
setGauge("ManaBar",atcp.MSDPMANA,atcp.MSDPMANA_MAX)
echo("ManaBar",[[<p style="font-size:14px"><center><b>]]..atcp.MSDPMANA..[[/]]..atcp.MSDPMANA_MAX..[[</b></center></p>]])
setGauge("OppHealthBar",atcp.MSDPOPPONENT_HEALTH,atcp.MSDPOPPONENT_HEALTH_MAX)
echo("OppHealthBar",[[<p style="font-size:14px"><center><b>]]..atcp.MSDPOPPONENT_HEALTH..[[/]]..atcp.MSDPOPPONENT_HEALTH_MAX..[[</b></center></p>]])
end
In hopes of not losing this post to a second Chrome crash I will post a screenshot in a reply. I hope this is helpful or at least interesting for someone
