Title: HUD Text Timer / point scale for cooking mini game
Post by: joduffy on June 07, 2014, 05:50:11 AM

Hi Guys,

I am trying to create a custom script for playmaker that will have points increase over time and display it via the HUD Text plugin.

So I would have 3 states in playmaker.

#1 would go +1 +2 +3 +4
and you would exit out of this state via a wait action

#2 would have the +5 pause for a few seconds to allow people to get the optimum score

#3 would start taking away points +4 +3 +2 +1

Hope this makes sense what I am trying to do. Basically there is a cooking mini game and I am trying to show the points above the food. You get less time if you take it out too soon or too late.

1. using UnityEngine;
2.  
3. namespace HutongGames.PlayMaker.Actions
4. {
5.         [ActionCategory(ActionCategory.ScriptControl)]
6.         [Tooltip("Call Add of HUDText.")]
7.         public class HUDTextNumbers : FsmStateAction
8.         {
9.                 [RequiredField]
10.                 [CheckForComponent(typeof(HUDText))]
11.                 public FsmOwnerDefault gameObject;
12.                
13.                 public FsmFloat value;
14.                 public FsmFloat addValue;
15.                 public FsmFloat results;
16.                 public FsmColor col;
17.                 public FsmFloat timeBeforeNextText;
18.                 public FsmFloat timeBeforeFade;
19.  
20.                 private float timer;
21.                
22.                 public override void Reset()
23.                 {                      
24.                 }
25.                                
26.                 public override void OnUpdate()
27.                 {
28.                         // check that we have MyScript referenced
29.                        
30.                         GameObject      go  = Fsm.GetOwnerDefaultTarget(gameObject);
31.                        
32.                         if (go == null)
33.                         {
34.                                 return;
35.                         }
36.                        
37.                         HUDText hudtext = go.GetComponent<HUDText>();
38.                        
39.                         if (hudtext == null)
40.                         {
41.                                 return;
42.                         }
43.                        
44.                         timer += Time.deltaTime;
45.                        
46.                         if (timer >= timeBeforeNextText.Value)
47.                         {
48.                                 timer = 0f;
49.  
50.                                 results = value.Value + addValue.Value;
51.                                 hudtext.Add(value.Value + addValue.Value,col.Value,timeBeforeFade.Value);
52.                         }
53.                 }
54.                
55.         }
56. }

Hi guys,

Thought I would give this a bump.

What I am trying to do is create a script that I can give it a counter - say 1-10. And have a variable that adjusts that time. So the numbers will get displayed if its 5 or 10 seconds. The only thing that changes is there speed.

I really can't suggest much regarding PlayMaker as I don't use it.

Thanks for the reply.

It doesn't have to be in playmaker. If I can figure it out in c# i can later convert it to a playmaker action.

I just seem to have issues of getting the text to update/increment over a certain time. I also want to stop the increment at the press of a button or have it decrease from a number.

So it would go 1-4 over 4 seconds; pause at 5 for 2 seconds; then go 4-1 over 4 seconds. This is an example of what I am trying to  do.

As I said, if I can get it working in c# with delta time I would be happy.

1. IEnumerator CustomUpdate()
2. {
3.     for (int i = 1; i < 6; ++i)
4.     {
5.         hudText.Add(i.ToString(), Color.white, 0f);
6.         yield return new WaitForSeconds(1f);
7.     }
8.  
9.     yield return new WaitForSeconds(1f);
10.  
11.     for (int i = 4; i > 0; --i)
12.     {
13.         hudText.Add(i.ToString(), Color.white, 0f);
14.         yield return new WaitForSeconds(1f);
15.     }
16. }

Thanks dude,

By following your logic I was able to get it working and also get it working in playmaker :D

Thanks for you help.
