The Energon Pub

So here's a couple of freebies.

Health & win/loss bars
In the function game_spacer_image - in game_shared_display.php, if it hasn't been rearranged - replace /images/layout/spacer.gif (which no longer exists) with /images/spacer.gif (which still does).

Code: Select all

function game_spacer_image($w = 1, $h = 1, $alt = '')
{
    $w = max(intval($w), 1);
    $h = max(intval($h), 1);
    $alt = htmlentities($alt);
    return sprintf(
        '<img src="/images/spacer.gif" width="%d" height="%d" border="0" alt="%s" />',
        $w,
        $h,
        $alt
    );
}  

There may be other broken links to /images/layout/spacer.gif scattered around - I think I caught most of the hardcoded ones and replaced them with the game_spacer_image function, but I may not have got them all.

Colour picker palette
To make the palette show up correctly in the first place:
In character_edit.php, find the printf() call which draws the palette boxes. The template begins with:

Code: Select all

<td style="padding-top: 10px; background-color: %s"

and the first argument is:

Code: Select all

color_rgb2html($rgb)

Change 'background-color: %s' in the template to 'background-color: #%s'.

To fix the dynamic palette:
In the Javascript embedded in character_edit.php, add the following function:

Code: Select all

function hexstring (rgb)
{
    return '#' + int2base(rgb[0] * 255, 16) + int2base(rgb[1] * 255, 16) + int2base(rgb[2] * 255, 16);
}

Then, in the update_sat amd update_val functions:

Code: Select all

function update_sat (hue)
{
   curr_hue = hue;

   failsafe = 50;

   for (var i = 0; i < SAT_NUM_STEPS; i++) {
      failsafe--;
      if (failsafe <= 0) {
         alert ('Failsafe kicked in at i=' + i + ', its=' + its + '!');
         break;
      }

      rgb = hsv2rgb(hue, SAT_MIN + (i * SAT_STEP), VAL_MAX);
      cell = document.getElementById('cp_sat' + i);
      cell.style.backgroundColor = hex_string(rgb);
   }

   update_val (curr_sat);
}


function update_val (sat, new_val)
{
   hue = curr_hue;
   curr_sat = sat;

   failsafe = 50;

   for (var i = 0; i < VAL_NUM_STEPS; i++) {
      failsafe--;
      if (failsafe <= 0) {
         alert ('Failsafe kicked in at i=' + i + ', its=' + its + '!');
         break;
      }

      cell = document.getElementById('cp_val' + i);
      rgb = hsv2rgb(hue, sat, VAL_MIN + (i * VAL_STEP));
      cell.style.backgroundColor = hex_string(rgb);
   }
}

(That is, move the calls to int2base into a new function which also - this is the important bugfix - prepends '#' to the hex string.)

Also, the 'failsafe' loop is junk debug code that should be safe to remove.

Also also, you may want to call update_sat and update_val on page load, to ensure they take account of any pre-selection in the hue row.


HTH

i've missed you glyph.

but don't get you hopes up, OS doesn't seem inclined to work on HMW.

Ill leave it where he cant help but trip over it...

Indeed

Maybe Glyph should come back and fix some of the problems?

Maybe some people need to be patient.

Maybe I can finally get my cookie?

I came to the darkside; I want my cookie!!



All will come in due time - or after sever nut-kickery - moderators choice.

there's patience, and there's infinite patience; OS pretty much inferred he wants to wash his hands of V1, so why not let someone else look after it while OS is doing what ever OS is doing?

Exactly.

Of course, it's easier to be patient when we know something's coming or being done and not being kept in the dark about some top secret black project like it's some governement military thing.

Don't let the yokles know nuttin. Who knows what they might do. They might get excited and spontaneously combust.

Not true. I'd like some cake.

Who is Glyph and why is he so awesome? If he has that level of programming skill to provide fixes for the game just like that he should totally be programming with OS. The game would only be better for it.

It is delicious cake. You must eat it.

Fearless Echoes wrote:Yeah, its been made pretty obvious that you are doing a 'V2' so why not admit it. At least then the general populace will see you are doing *something*, whereas right now it apears nothing is being done, and you are taking a damn long time in doing it.

If I cared what you people thought of my performance or if you were my boss in any way, shape or form you would have an argument. Just know that I am doing nothing, I am worthless and do not have the ability to program my way out of a sack, let alone fix a status bar.

We all dont mind waiting if we know something is being worked on.

We arnt asking for a final date, cuase most of us know that real life and programming problems will delay any date chosen.

All we want is for a little bit of honesty.

Honesty? Here's some honesty... You eagerly await any single word I might type in this forum to lynch mob it with a fury and then wonder why I never post anything. Its actually pretty funny. Its never really criticism but typically personal attacks. I get it. You don't like me. So now we have a little bit of honesty.

He was the former programmer whom I replaced. There were reasons for it which I am not at liberty to discuss here. What you are seeing here is the fact that he was liked by the mob and I am not. HMW is currently under a code freeze which is why you aren't seeing any enhancements/fixes right now.
