Coding HUDs. - Ilias S. - May 13, 2017

Hello there!

So, for the past 3weeks i have been working on a HUD. I really enjoy it since i am working on it 24/7. The feeling of coding is just A-M-A-Z-I-N-G.

What do you think?

I made a config for it aswell.

Well, if you know how to use photoshop feel free to create a HUD in there and send it to me. I am willing to make it since i want to learn more and more everyday but i am kinda out of ideas. Thanks Big Grin

That's pretty cool man, I find HUDs easy myself but they take some time so good on you.

RE: Coding HUDs. - Ilias S. - May 14, 2017

Yeah, that's true. It takes time setting the positions etc.

Good job!

Try to lerp the health of the HUD, etc.. Smile

EDIT: 
Also, something that's good to know! You should probably save your variables/tables inside a "workspace table" as I like to call it. Right now you save everything inside a table called Config which could collide with other addons if someone else does the same thing. Try to come up with a unique name of your table like GreeksHUD or something like that. Then you could create another table in the GreeksHUD table called Config, etc.. So the path to the config variable would for example be GreeksHUD.Config.CommunityWebsite.

Anyhow, good job! Smile

Hey I've recently been trying to learn LUA, I tried to start off by doing a simple Derma window. I see no errors when re-reading my program yet I still get this error: 

[ERROR] lua/autorun/client/testprogram.lua:20: function arguments expected near '='

  1. unknown - lua/autorun/client/testprogram.lua:0

This is my program:

Replace the : at LuaButton:DoClick with a dot instead.

Should look like this:
Code:
LuaButton.Doclick = function()


RE: Coding HUDs. - Spai - May 25, 2017

You've almost misspelt
Code:
Label = vgui.create("DLable", LuaTest)

should be 
Code:
Label = vgui.create("DLabel", LuaTest)
