Hi. It's me again, this time with a custom hud creation library.
If you wanna know how easy this makes creation of custom huds, the hud in the gif has 8 hudCreator.addElement calls and 3 custom drawing functions.

GIF:

Spoiler: show

Features:
- Automatically draws the cross symbol and text (can be turned on/off).
- Option to draw a backdrop behind the element.
- Option to hide it when a player (or specified npc) is overlapping.
- Option to hide it when the players are not still.
- And many more customizable options!

Limitations:
- User has to provide their own code for splitscreen/multiplayer.

Special Thanks:
Hoeloe for helping me learn about glDraw and capture buffers.

Wow. This is utterly amazing! Finally, an easy way to make these!

(Note, might want to put that in your signature so others will use it more!)

Is there a way to make an element (coin-like counter) that uses anothercurrency currencies?

Code: Select all

hud.addElement("coins", {
    img           = Graphics.sprites.hardcoded["33-2"].img,
    font          = font,
    x             = 32,
    y             = 16,
    hideOverlap   = true,
    direction     = hud.DIR_LEFT,
    stillBehavior = true,
    getFunc       = function() return coinCounter:getMoney() end,
})

Here, coinCounter is your ac currency.

I'm just wanting to know how to make this work for my own project, if that's okay.

I have a problem instead of three star coins, for some reason it costs five, I wanted to see what would happen if I put five star coins and then removed 2 coins
