I made a working health script. I also made a demo map for it. tell me what you think!

oh yea, here is the code on the website: the download for the demo map is in the attachment.

Okay: Why in the world did you use an EDITbind??

it was my failed attempt at making it easier to view the health info. i have no idea on how to put a static progress bar in game, or even just text. I came up with THAT bit of code by exploring defaults.cfg (Dont edit that unless you know what you are doing.) It does not do anything, but display an error. the script still works perfectly.

I might use that for my game =]

Thanx! This is exactly what I was looking for

hehe I will probably use this and recode it for a static bar and text and a picture

Code: Select all

Never use editbind...

Looks okay apart from the editbind i may have a look at this and use it for my game (save me some coding).

Realistically you might want to use an "on-release" bind, or a bind with cntrl. But those are just some of the ideas that randomly float around my head. I need to get working on my Shift-Speed script.

I'm gonna take it you meant "ctrl" there...

I havent tested this script out yet... But I'm probably going to use it to test out EasyScriptBuilder 0.1.5 before I release it. Maybe even use it for 0.5.0 to test out Error Checking... If I ever implement it.
