Script: Simple HUD

[The cool Treecko]

This compatible with 18.x?

I would like to push my Hud to the edges, but when changing the coordinates, the icons disappear, they are below the border.
My HUD:
https://freeimage.host/i/fRtWN4

Up

How do I play Hud to the edges? I tried to move by changing the x and y values, but when they reach the edge they seem to be under the edge and do not overlap ...

To move the sprites/texts on any position on screen, you need to do 2 things:

1. Change the rect of bar, so it cover more space. I will put at entire screen
2. Stops blue mask for covering entire screen.

For both things, change:

        barBitmap = Bitmap.new(Graphics.width,BARHEIGHT)
        barRect = Rect.new(0,0,barBitmap.width,barBitmap.height)

Into:

        barBitmap = Bitmap.new(Graphics.width,Graphics.height)
        barRect = Rect.new(0,0,barBitmap.width,BARHEIGHT)

This compatible with 18.x?

I'm almost sure that people are using with v18.1 without issues.

Nice! Its Works!

Would anyone know how to make a second experiment bar, which would be below the HP bar?

This isn't hard, you need to copy the HP Bar logic and transform into exp bar. A step-by-step:

After line '@partyTotalHP = Array.new(6, 0)' add line '@partyExp = Array.new(6, 0)'. Before line 'for sprite in @sprites.values' add

      if SHOWHPBARS
        borderWidth = 36
        borderHeight = 10
        fillWidth = 32
        fillHeight = 6
        for i in 0...6
          x=64*i+48
          y=@yposition+45

          @sprites["expbarborder#{i}"] = BitmapSprite.new(
            borderWidth,borderHeight,@viewport1
          )
          @sprites["expbarborder#{i}"].x = x-borderWidth/2
          @sprites["expbarborder#{i}"].y = y-borderHeight/2
          @sprites["expbarborder#{i}"].bitmap.fill_rect(
            Rect.new(0,0,borderWidth,borderHeight),
            Color.new(32,32,32)
          )
          @sprites["expbarborder#{i}"].bitmap.fill_rect(
            (borderWidth-fillWidth)/2,
            (borderHeight-fillHeight)/2,
            fillWidth,
            fillHeight,
            Color.new(96,96,96)
          )
          @sprites["expbarborder#{i}"].visible = false

          @sprites["expbarfill#{i}"] = BitmapSprite.new(
            fillWidth,fillHeight,@viewport1
          )
          @sprites["expbarfill#{i}"].x = x-fillWidth/2
          @sprites["expbarfill#{i}"].y = y-fillHeight/2
        end
        refreshExpBars
      end

Before line 'def refreshHPBars' add

    def refreshExpBars
      for i in 0...6
        startexp = 0
        endexp = 0
        hasExp = i<$Trainer.party.size && !$Trainer.party[i].egg?
        if hasExp
          exp = $Trainer.party[i].exp
          growthrate = $Trainer.party[i].growthrate
          startexp = PBExperience.pbGetStartExperience($Trainer.party[i].level,growthrate)
          endexp   = PBExperience.pbGetStartExperience($Trainer.party[i].level+1,growthrate)
        end
        
        lastTimeWasExp = @partyExp [i] != 0
        @sprites["expbarborder#{i}"].visible = hasExp if lastTimeWasExp != hasExp

        redrawFill = exp != @partyExp[i]
        if redrawFill
          @partyExp[i] = exp
          @sprites["expbarfill#{i}"].bitmap.clear
          
          width = @sprites["expbarfill#{i}"].bitmap.width
          height = @sprites["expbarfill#{i}"].bitmap.height
          fillAmount = (endexp==0) ? 0 : (exp - startexp)*width/(endexp - startexp)
          if fillAmount > 0
            hpColors=[Color.new(24,144,248),Color.new(72,120,160)]
            shadowHeight = 2
            rect = Rect.new(0,0,fillAmount,shadowHeight)
            @sprites["expbarfill#{i}"].bitmap.fill_rect(rect, hpColors[1])
            rect = Rect.new(0,shadowHeight,fillAmount,height-shadowHeight)
            @sprites["expbarfill#{i}"].bitmap.fill_rect(rect, hpColors[0])
          end
        end
      end
    end

After line 'refreshHPBars if SHOWHPBARS' add line 'refreshExpBars if SHOWHPBARS'.

How can I add time instead of the 2nd text

How can I add time instead of the 2nd text

Change 'ret[1] = _INTL("text two")' to 'ret[1] = pbGetTimeNow.strftime("%I:%M %p")'.

Hey! Thanks for the script, there is some way to make an option just like Windowskins to change the HUD graphic?

Yes!

Copy an Option on Option menu and call something like "hudBar". Remove the line '@sprites["bgbar"].setBitmap(BGPATH)':

After

@partyTotalHP = Array.new(6, 0)

Add
@lastHUDBar = -1

After the two

refreshPartyIcons

Add

refreshHUDBar

Before

def refreshPartyIcons

Add

def refreshHUDBar
	drawBarFromPath = BGPATH != ""
      	return if !drawBarFromPath || $PokemonSystem.hudBar==@lastHUDBar
	@lastHUDBar = $PokemonSystem.hudBar
	@sprites["bgbar"].setBitmap(case $PokemonSystem.hudBar
   		when 0 then ""
   		when 1 then "Graphics/Pictures/hud1"
   		when 2 then "Graphics/Pictures/hud2"
	end)
end

Untested.

how can you do it for v19 essentials.

I gonna make a V19.1 version (I probably wait more time for more hotfixes).

I tested and this is already working with Essentials v19.1. Anyway, I edited to remove the deprecated methods.

Hey, was there anyway of getting the HUD to update in other menus as it would only update when returning to the game?

After 'def initialize(viewport1)' add

    @@instanceArray.compact! 
    @@instanceArray.push(self)

And before 'def initialize(viewport1)' add:

    @@instanceArray = []
    def self.updateAll
      for hud in @@instanceArray
        hud.update if hud && hud.hasSprites?
      end
    end
    def hasSprites?
      return [email protected]?
    end

Call `Spriteset_Map::HUD.updateAll` on each menu script (on update method).

Thank you for the script, i've been using it for a while now, i haven't had anybody any kind of problem but i have a question how do i hide it in the intro? I would like to know if it is possible to deactivate it and re-activate it with a event thank you so much

 

[FL]

An update is coming!

Thank you for the script, i've been using it for a while now

Oh! I noticed a HUD in your video and I wondered if it is this HUD.

how do i hide it in the intro? I would like to know if it is possible to deactivate it and re-activate it with a event thank you so much

Put a switch number on SWITCHNUMBER and toggle it on/off.

 

[obliu]

Hola FL, thanks for answering me I appreciate it❤️

Put a switch number on SWITCHNUMBER and toggle it on/off.

yes I had understood from the script that you had also written it above siwtchnumber, but I wanted to know how I can call it from an event I don't know what to write, I just wanted to deactivate it in the intro and make it appear at the beginning of the game, then I sent you a video if you can kindly watch it is still in WIP but i'm at the point of releasing it and i will update it slowly, i'm using a lot of your scripts so you are already in my credits for years, i'm developing it since 5 years alone.
the only thing I don't want to update the version of pokemon essentilas to v20 on colosseum if not it won't work half of the scripts, then I also wanted to know about the character selection maybe is offtopic here but i need your help, I wanted to know how to put the sound while selecting, because this part is without sounds you can check the video for what i meaning ( i send you the yt video link privately checks the dm, I can not send it here tells me that I have to create at least 5 posts

An update is coming!

Happy to hear it, you are the best, this script deserves to be updated!

I'm using a lot of your scripts so you are already in my credits for years now xD

Let's say that your SWITCHNUMBER is 99. At professor lecture start, add the event command to change switch 99 as off as the first command.

When you finished your intro and want to the HUD appears, do the event command to change the switch 99 as on.

then I sent you a video if you can kindly watch it is still in WIP but i'm at the point of releasing it and i will update it slowly, i'm using a lot of your scripts so you are already in my credits for years, i'm developing it since 5 years alone.

So you are a veteran, nice!

This happens because the sound name was changed on Essentials v17 and no one reported since. Anyway, there is a better way of doing this, I gonna update this script soon. In meantime, change all 'pbSEPlay("Choose",80)' to 'pbPlayCursorSE'.

Everything works great thank you very much 🙏

ahhh with the switches at the beginning I didn't understand the word switchnumber lol my bad, I thought I had to call some command with the script but now i understood and everything works perfectly, i put the switchnumber at 99 and i use it the control switches to turn it On /Off

So you are a veteran, nice!

More or less xD I have quit and resumed several times since I am alone and sometimes it becomes difficult to continue but slowly it is taking shape, also thanks to your awasome scripts!

understood that's why the sound didn't work, now it's perfect!
